Musk v Altman JUDGE: The jury has sent a question and the answer is no, the death penalty is not "available for both sides" please return to the jury room and limit your consideration to civil damages.

It was kind of Robert Jenrick to set me up for an obvious joke at his expense.

'I’m not going to walk away from those challenges and plunge the country into chaos.' Words from man standing in the middle of a bin fire he's spent two years stoking. :-/ #starmer

That’s not really what the polling station is for

This is why we all need to vote, because the people who believe leaflets like this absolutely will.

This is not justice. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Wait, I thought they were trying to make it funnier?

Oh God, imagine...

Well...

Just goes to show that the only people impressed by artificial intelligence are those with no intelligence of their own

Well, that's one way to fill pot-holes

The least shocking thing ever is learning DOGE used chatGPT to identify which grants were “DEI.” It is critical to understand that LLMs are an authoritarian technology meant to win the millennia-long war on critical thinking and art. They are a right wing wet dream.

BREAKING NEWS: Green MP Hannah Spencer expands her property empire by owning Matt Goodwin

Labour did everything the popularists like Matt Yglesias want. They cracked down on trans people and immigrants. They pushed austerity. They ended up fracturing their entire base and losing this seat to the left for the first time in nearly a 100 years.

That’s what’s up.

I interviewed 300 high achievers about their morning routine, and you will never believe, they all have inherited family wealth.

I've seen healthier corpses

Gary Larson: In my cartoon I invented Cow Tools as a cautionary tale Cows: At long last, we have created the Cow Tools from classic newspaper comic Cow Tools

Here's a a map from 86 years ago when Elon Musk's antisemitic, racist grandfather (Joshua N. Haldeman) was a leader in the Technocracy movement, which favored replacing politicians with scientists and engineers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technoc... Notice the northern & southern borders?

nothing can put a bigger smile on my face than reading that Microsoft has to scale back its AI ambitions because NOBODY uses copilot.

I didn't exactly have high hopes for the next iteration of Nigel Farage's defence against allegations of racism, but even I expected better than 'I can't be a racist because Bernard Manning was on telly in the seventies'

Setting aside the whys of Guiding and WI doing this and to what extent they're forced, it's now pretty beyond doubt that this is a campaign to deliberately render trans life in the UK impossible.

If JKR is willing to destroy every women's and girls' organisation and institution in this country in her crusade against trans rights, make her fucking do it. Call her bluff. Full juridicial kamikaze. Show everyone how much these ghouls really care about women's and girls' spaces.

Unfortunate juxtaposition…

150 > 100+ Always love it when racists get owned by the Twitter AI. Shame we don't see his crash out for being told that White Supremacists were worse.

New! Cassetteboy vs Keir Starmer. This took absolutely ages, so if you'd like to buy us a coffee at ko-fi.com/cassetteboy we'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Hot take: the UK would be a MUCH better place if we deported the right un-British people. The right-wing ones, I mean. Nazism is un-British, yes? (Faragists out!)

During WW1 there was a rumour that aspirin caused the Spanish Flu. As I was writing about that last year I often shook my head in disbelief at the stupidity of our near ancestors. Seems a lot of people are still dumb enough to believe nonsense.

As promised: another LIMITED run of our Antifa miniatures shirt courtesy of SlowDeath Games. Only in the shop for a couple of days so nobody's waiting forever for these to arrive. Grab yours now, terrorists!

Gary Lineker gets his biggest cheer of the night by far from the audience for saying his award was for "speaking up for those who have no voice" We know why Gary won. Free Palestine.

Feel like this little sob story *could* have mentioned that Boyne's Polari nomination came five days after he wrote a piece referring to trans-inclusive women as the evil wives in the Handmaid's Tale, "ready to pin a handmaiden down as her husband rapes her". www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

"This." He said. "This is what Nazis are like. This is what Nazis do. And there's only one way you can stop a Nazi. And it's not tricking them into painting graffiti while you sneak into their base. You stop a Nazi by killing it." He said it. I'll never remember the tone he used.

Wait - since when is punching Nazis "hateful"?

You can never recoup lost tax revenue through economic growth. Why? Math. Assume an economy with $100 in taxable income with a 20% tax rate. The government gets $20 in taxes. Now assume a 10% tax cut. The government gets 18%. What will the government need to earn to get back to $20? $111.11 1/

I told you we’d be back

Dear USA Deploying troops against civilians will not go well. Yours Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Of course it may just be coincidental and sloppy graphic design, but the decision to render the Venus symbol in a runic style, rather like the far right use of the Othala rune seems like a coded message to me. I have never seen the circle as anything like this before

Just ten years ago the UK was top of the list - the best place in Europe for LGBT rights. We are now 22nd The only country to drop faster in one year than us is Hungary The government needs to act in a major way before this becomes their entire legacy
