Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

She’s lost control

Great investigation of the Nazis, racists and criminals mobilising the flag-on-lamp-posts movement. This is the kind of journalism that the national media could and should have conducted: manchestermill.co.uk/the-men-who-...

The view from Table Mountain tonight was wonderful..

Watch out for Ea Nasir this Halloween!

Russian strikes on October 30 damaged substations vital to nuclear safety, causing South Ukraine and Khmelnitsky plants to lose one external power line each while Rivne plant reduced two reactor units, IAEA reported. www.iaea.org/newscenter/p...

Private Eye.

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'" I've saved her some time.

Post your grunts!

Man looks like he's about to have his face melted by the ark of the covenant

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast' 10/10 response, no notes

Not a fan of the new $20 bill…

The ork Gundam is done! My little Orktober project! The STL is from Modulorka. Video in the comments!

Edinburgh castle failing to render, likely thanks to the AWS outage

I can beat the medievalists! In 61 CE, revolting British natives attacked the Roman colony of Camulodunum (Colchester). In 2015, in a domestic space, archs found the remains of a whole box of coriander as well as fenugreek, poppy seeds, cumin, & other Indian spices. Homesick Roman women made curry.

If you want to read the trippiest thing I've ever written, I once interviewed Muslim gnostic Seyyed Hossein Nasr about Grant's work and whether or it is possible to be initiated into gnosticism via comic book. How I got him to agree to this interview, I will never know bookshop.org/p/books/grav...

Reinforcements have been dispatched to Portland… 🤣🐸🤣

Even back in the 70s and 80s when I could be hassled by the police for walking while trans, no one ever tried to stop me pissing in the Ladies or tried to make me change into my swimsuit among men. There is no dignity or respect involved in taking away rights I have exercised freely for forty years

Intriguing approach. 🧪 newatlas.com/disease/engi...

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Deutsche Bank: “growth is not coming from AI itself but from building the factories to generate AI capacity.” This is the same as saying: "Growth is not coming from the mines (which have nothing in them), but from selling the picks and shovels to the miners."

A reminder that it took Turkey 17 seconds to shoot down a Russian Su-24 in 2015.

I wrote something about feeling like a guest in a country that is my home. bestforbritain.substack.com/p/my-place-o...

I think one of the better, more subtle tributes to Robert Redford's life is the string of utterly iconic female co-stars who've come forward to eulogize him; each of them take-no-shit types like Fonda and Streisand, and every one of them without a single bad thing to say. A model for male behavior

The first episode of The Tripods was broadcast on this day in 1984.

MAGA needs to stop the gaslighting and just admit the truth - that this guy is one of their own. I am so sick of their insane bullshit. It’s NOT the left using vitriolic rhetoric or calling for violence, it’s them. FFS Elon is sharing a doxxing list with millions of followers. They own this mess.

At the Amish weed booth anyone need anything

An Asian Sikh woman has been raped in broad daylight by racists who said she doesn’t belong here. Racist attacks on a daily basis. When will our leaders say something? We need leadership and we need it now. And when will those who spew hate be punished not rewarded? Britain is breaking apart.

Even Grok is calling the shooter a groyper. Lmao

Just gonna post this for no particular reason right now… Finnish sniper Simo Häyhä, the deadliest sniper in history, was once asked what he felt when killing russian soldiers. "Recoil," he answered. 😎

Jim Henson designed owls and you can never convince me otherwise

Quote with your red art

I don't usually crank up the outrage machine, but this is outrageous, & I know some vets who are also upset. "The U.S. Air Force is planning to offer an official military funeral for Ashli Babbitt, the insurrectionist who was shot during the attack on the U.S. Capitol." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Scientists are now able to splice the DNA of a cheetah into that of a crab. Oh dear, that could go sideways fast!

Very possibly the most British road sign in Britain:

Very concerning news from the frontline for Ukraine. Russia has advanced around 10km with a breakthrough north of Pokrovsk. I have had this confirmed by different sources The Deep State map has been updated. I've shown the progress from a week ago, 4 days ago, y'day and now.

BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif. He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza. Speechless.
