"Unidentified"? We know who he was

Trigger warning. This is the first thing I saw when I searched for Trump's name in the newly released Epstein files.

The final evolution of all Pokémon.

More fun with “AI” code review. It turns out you shouldn’t change the values of reference parameters inside a method because the code that called it might rely on the value remaining unchanged. Literally the whole point of reference parameters is that any changes carry over to the outer method.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

The Devil Went Down To Georgia is fun, because in literally any other culture in history it would be a cautionary tale about hubris, but in America Johnny really is better than Satan and he wins.

New kitty friend.

Cheery was aware that Commander Vimes didn't like the phrase 'The innocent have nothing to fear', believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like 'The innocent have nothing to fear'.

Has the Labour party considered seppuku yet? All the cool dead parties have committed it.

the thing that makes Sam Vimes work as a character is that he spends all of his time standing at the very edge of the slippery slope, looking directly down into the abyss, and consciously choosing not to go down that slope even when it would be so much easier if he did

Yourself but as a cartoon.

Finally, Sonic actually does run faster than sound.

Technically the headline doesn't specify a causal relationship between the two things, so yes.

Akira Kurosawa’s Lesbian Vampire Killers.

EXCLUSIVE: You're adopted and I don't love you.

It's fun how everyone who doesn't love whatever Sensible Centrist is being forced upon us right now is simultaneously a foolish single-issue voter who can't see the bigger picture and also a completely unreasonable pony-wanter with an endless list of purity tests a candidate has to be perfect on.

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Just a big congrats to everyone participating in the “babies make angry YouTube videos about baby things” art project today, this is a quality bit of comedy

When the Nazis found out Lyudmila Pavlichenko, the legendary Soviet sniper who killed at least 300 people on the Eastern Front, was a woman, they started doing radio broadcasts where they said they'd give her chocolate and pretty dresses if she defected

Imagine if it happens on the same day the Labour party splits.

I can’t believe he actually fucking did this

It's clear that the Green Party are the way to keep Reform out of Manchester. We are already on the ground in Gorton and Denton - and we are going to be campaigning for every single vote. A new Green MP representing the community. Let's go! Join.greenparty.org.uk

I have worked hard to convince my nephew to watch Tuvix. Because of woke.

This is objectively too much head.

I can see the movies being made 20 years from now. Our protagonist is doing his best but has some unresolved shit from his childhood. A flashback, it’s 2026. He’s a kid; he & his mom are being browbeaten by his belligerent, pathetic father. His dad gets ready for work. We see his badge: it says ICE.

Please be briefly cheered up by this perfume bottle (Greek; c. 600BCE) from the Burrell Collection.

I don’t think we should be using words like “innocent” or “US citizen” or “bystander” or things like that because — what if someone was an undocumented immigrant with a criminal record? Would they deserve this? No one deserves to be executed on the street in cold blood.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind. It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty. Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face. Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

I look forward to Starmer rejecting him in favour of a yes man, who proceeds to lose their deposit as the Green party take a seat Labour have held since the 1930s.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

Holy fucking shit this is awesome use this now cybernews.com/security/dev...

I just thought everyone should see this

Anakin was right.

i think about this often

It will be very funny if Burnham tries to get elected in a by-election and then the Greens take the seat.

a quick comic about jesus

Suspect a HUGE issue with "A.i." summary tools is that they're full of mistakes that you'd only know if you already know the material. So people THINK it's helping when it's actually making them more ignorant.

I think there should be a law requiring him and only him to change his last name to reflect whichever company he's working with and right now, for the sake of journalistic integrity, I believe we and the press should all be referring to him by his upcoming name, "Doug Megatron."

“We won’t do anything about CSAM on our favourite Nazi paedophile site, but we’ll be damned if we let abused kids have an outlet to reach out for support.”

“What if someone’s arm gets caught in this machine? We need a button to turn it off immediately.” “Don’t prepare for a hypothetical, let’s wait and see if anyone gets caught in the machine and we can discuss the emergency stop button then.”

“One notable MIT study found that 95 percent of companies that integrated AI saw zero meaningful growth in revenue. For coding tasks, one of AI’s most widely hyped applications, another study showed that programmers who used AI coding tools actually became slower at their jobs.”

I remember at the time all the Clever Pundits with sinecures at ancient and august institutions were saying this stuff, people with cartoon avatars on here were pointing out that it was all obviously going to end up exactly as it has done now. That's very bad. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cp...

Blue Monday is the day everyone gets depressed because they have to listen to inane discourse about how Blue Monday is fake.

*scouring Bluesky for mentions of Starmer in order to defend his honour because actually I'm no great fan of the man*

There’s a small counterpoint to the argument that Starmer still has to be nice and diplomatic with Trump even while he’s hitting us with tariffs and threatening a NATO member because he wants to play Napoleon: it isn’t fucking working

I am sorry 'The Last Supper' fans, 22 hours from now, I will take 'The Last Supper' down. I cannot take this anymore.

It should be No Trumps, but we all know he’s the dummy.

*Sobs* legs are no longer coming.

Here’s a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.
