No offense but I think if you let your sports thing make you be mean to toddlers you should go to prison.

Guardian must stop uncritically publishing Pat McFadden's lies, says everyone else

reminder that this is the sum total of the terrifying LASIT "attacks" to date: one incel and one 5G nutter

permanent daylight savings doesn't go far enough

For a few years after this, even the UK Tory Party seemed to be on the same road. Then a gang of elite media personalities decided that gender-fascism was more fun. And now even the Labour Party is pro-Toilet-Police.

LLMs have taken steve jobs' "a computer is a bicycle for the mind" and replaced it with driving a huge american pickup truck to the corner store that's a five-minute walk away

I haven't seen nearly enough discussion of this incredible, very in-depth piece of reporting on Palantir. We tend to talk about the company as if they're some all-powerful panopticon, but the reality is they're a sub-par data integration middleware company with better branding and lobbying.

As always with this stuff: WHO ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE FIGHTING? Because if the answer is nobody, then it starts to look like a bung to the defence industry that also serves to shore up the political class's waning sense of masculinity.

me: i must practice the dharma also me:

Trail has gone stone cold already and now the cops get to invent whatever narrative they want.

I fucking guarantee you that this was a burglary gone wrong because no anarchist thinks there is a strategic value to murdering a 78 year old minor politician, but that doesn't matter, cos now Psycho Baz from 2 Para and Dave the Racist are on Facebook planning to nailbomb my local social centre.

graham, this guy, it's so fucking funny. no one really cares. no one really mourns them. no one is grieving. meant nothing to anyone in any substantive sense. content in life, content in death

It's going to rule seeing Burnham slam into the same brick wall Starmer did and watch Labour scramble to find someone else to parachute into the PLP to save their skins.

Wait that big wooden horse is full of fucking GREEKS??

"Noooo! Not big beautiful coal! Millions of men and women toiling in the sun to install solar panels and upgrade power networks is so much less noble and traditional and politically useful than the small towns' worth of grimy men who still go down into the mines every day!"

I love opening a pdf in a vertical monitor, and having the left third be "here is a load of things adobe can do", the right third "do you want an ai summary of this" and the actual thing I wanted to read a slender strip in the middle. A Brazilian of useful information.

The right creating a stab-in-the-back myth, centred around Boris, because the “points-based immigration system” they’d been demanding for years caused immigration to rise is just so fucking exhausting

excessive technophilia is how you become a hypercapitalist neoreactionary type and excessive technophobia is how you become an anti-vaxxer neo trad nationalist type so be careful folks

Same old Labour

Just a reminder that the BNP’s policy on repatriation was actually a lot more liberal than what’s being proposed here lmao

Yes, the simple explanation here is: do the people paid to explain politics to the public want to fuck up and destroy Politician (x)? If they do, it’s Johnson in 2022, unable to move for new scandals opening under his feet. If they don’t, they’re like Teflon Tony or Teflon Boris.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

No hell too hot. www.sunjournal.com/2026/07/13/i...

The centrist waltz in full swing again. Propose something abhorrent; face a backlash; retreat to 90% of something abhorrent; get lauded for your clever moderate compromise while the right wing continue to call you race traitor communists; gain nothing while hurting millions; repeat.

Watching Israeli genocide apologists latch on to the attack on Amnesty International really shows how these struggles are intertwined.

Any political project which does not have a radical reform of the media landscape as a linchpin cannot be thought of as a serious response to the resurgence of reactionary politics and the polycrisis www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Climate change means wild fires like this are becoming more frequent and more severe. Where is the national conversation about the urgent need for adaptation in the years ahead? Instead we get politicians demanding billions more for bombs.

Sam Neill should have won an Oscar for this “help I’m being attacked by an invisible Chevy Chase” scene with a stupid looking plastic gun taped to the side of his head

Prove to whomst, exactly? Look at how this stuff is framed. To demonstrate and perform seriousness, one must take on and slaughter sacred cows like "climate change is real and continuing to fund fossil fuels is a fools errand", something both true and politically popular.
