Mad that it’s one billionaire scumbag who’s behind these massive-scale evictions in London AND the mass closure of London pubs AND beloved institution the Prince Charles Cinema being in dire straits AND the high street being clogged with cruddy candy shops. A one-man enshittification engine.

One of the great things about Zack Polanski scaring the shit out of Labour is that they just keep putting in the newspaper that they’re mad

This doesn't seem worth having a Discord account

using "punk rock" as a stand in for "countercultural" or "radical" in 2026 is always a bit of an indicator that the person saying it is uhhh a little out of touch

Sometimes I worry. Sometimes I think she’s brilliant. Not sure this time.

This is pretty much what things go like on the farm every day.

Papatako, a hardworking octopus dad, is the mascot of Akashi City.

One underrated laugh in ex-prince Andrew's situation is that he probably never even _considered_ that what he's been arrested for could be a crime. Everyone knows "trade envoy" just means "extremely corrupt person who travels around hoovering up bribes or occasionally dispensing them if needed"

And after all that, the Pitt/Cruise AI fight scene appears to have been just digital BG and face replacement on multi-angle green screen reference videos of two real live human stuntees fighting. In other words, like most AI hype — it was a con. www.shokunin.studio/blog/2026/2/...

I liked the one where someone said they used Claude code to write teleprompter software rather than buying teleprompter software as an example of why ai haters don’t get ai and I was like … I don’t need to … make my own bespoke teleprompter software? happy to pay for something that already exists?

I had missed this new Melanie C that came out a couple of months ago! She certainly knows how to laser target her audience 💦 www.youtube.com/watch?v=blY4...

That bit near the end of Goodfellas where Karen Hill in a panicked frenzy as the cops bang on the door flushes coke down the toilet but it's Sarah Ferguson flushing royal titles away while singing Rule Britannia.

It is infuriating how the former Prince, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, got away with sex crimes for all these years but now that there's evidence he may have done a financial crime with Jeffrey Epstein they're arresting him and searching his properties.

Nocturnal Animals or 20000 Days On Earth. While I've seen far worse, I thought both were insufferably self-indulgent and incredibly tiresome (although in v different ways, and Nocturnal Animals I found to be actually unpleasant to watch) and begrudge the time I spent in the cinema

Is there a technology the left is excited about?

this might fix me

I've always wondered what Resident Evil characters actually write on those typewriters when you're saving your game.

The constant condescension about ai is another aspect of it that makes me hate it more. The assumption is you can only be against it because you don't understand it like I do. No man. I don't like voluntarily making every human enterprise dependent on a tech run by a tiny group of financial maniacs

extremely this and with the comical jokerifying part that Reform are incredibly obviously going to do this _even more_ and grift more for themselves but the gullible voters who aren't just voting because they're xenophobic fascists somehow don't realise this

Every now and then without talking about it, me and my husband get our tabby cat and pretend we are cat show judges. We talk about her stature and get her to stand with her head and tail out, like judges do at cat shows. Then, as if normal, we carry on with our day.

extremely rude of my baby to roast me by pointing at this character in her book and loudly insist it’s “daddy”

what expression is this even

feels cruel for Bluesky to have a Popular With Friends tab, if any of us were popular with friends we wouldn't be on Bluesky

I am 100% convinced that even if it wasn't initially the plan, when the AI bubble bursts, techbros will use the vastly increased PC hardware costs/scarcity to push a thin-clients-at-home model very, very hard. Not just for the profits, but for the complete surveillance and control, with no offline

Saying "I never liked his work anyway" will be acceptable specifically when something actionable/consequential eventually comes out about Jared Leto since it'll let everyone identify whoever the hell it was that _did_ like his work

"I was worried about today because of the dream I told you about..."

mom they’re roasting the US economy on mastodon again

To give you an idea of how deranged the UK has become about gender stuff, here's Enid Blyton - the absolute avatar of classic English conservatism and a huge fan of racist "gollywogs" - casually describing a gender non-conforming kid in the 1940s and having their friends be totally cool with it.

The problem with going out to a goth club (which I do infrequently these days) is that it always reminds me of all the things I _like_ about doing this, making me want to go more, but also all the things I really do _not_, making me want to go even less!

In the pub. Goth fest is on. It's pleasing and heart warming to see goths look like they could come from any era from 1981 to date and you couldn't tell. They're still here. Like an anchor in an ever-changing society.

😻😻😻

oh _no_

[drunk at the goth club] jesus fuck why is it so fucking straight here, I mean come on

I'm not angry about people not dancing to a Recent Good Song at the club, I'm just predictably disappointed

Lady Companion and I celebrated/commiserated another Valentine's day together with a very nice brunch and later I am going out to a Goth Club. It's a rugby weekend with Scotland playing England here in Edinburgh right this very moment so I am assuming the city centre may be Quite Lively later 🙄

My favourite achingly snarky line in Bob Stanley's Yeah Yeah Yeah is when he describes Madonna as being "as good as Kim Wilde"
