have they considered not doing a genocide

Sorcerer (Friedkin 1977)

This is so tragic it's actually incredibly funny

How on earth was this company awarded any contracts by UK government and why on earth have they not been kicked out?

They should put a monkey on the £50 note and a pony on the £10 note to confuse the hell out cockneys.

Sigh. Cycling isn t even mentioned. Which can be a huge money saver, as well as getting you healthier. When I switched from car to bike i was saving almost £200 a month, and it wasnt much slower cos not stuck in traffic. Bizarre. www.theguardian.com/money/2026/m...

That this happened at all shows what a problem we have. That the perpetrator was unrepentant, the sentence minimal and the victim DEFENDED that it was "hard" to drive at 20mph shows that we've internalised motornormativity.

On this day in 1992, Ride released their brilliant second studio album “Going Blank Again” featuring “Leave Them All Behind" “Twisterella" “Not Fazed” “Chrome Waves” and “OX4"

Another homebrew "ebike" victim.

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

Checkmate, cheese rollers.

You don't know shame until your 3 year old boots a chicken in the arse at the local city farm in front of a dozen other parents.

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

What if - hear me out - instead of holding their phone in front of their mouth, using speakerphone, we... innovated, no "disrupted" communication by holding a phone to their ear.

The sheer amount of misery the 3 Semitic religions have inflicted on the world through their tribalism and inherent aggressive colonialism just isn't going away is it?

Anyway, we’re Here

Absolutely the best thing doing the rounds just now. And the best critique of late capitalism you will ever see.

We used to be a proper country.

The Iranian warship that was bombed by the US was unarmed www.middleeasteye.net/news/iranian...

Interesting thread

Remind me: when you bomb an elementary school, lure the survivors into a false sense of safety, and then bomb the survivors, leaving behind dozens and dozens of dead school children... are you the good guys?

Anyways.

WAR CRIME BY THE US. An unarmed Iranian ship was takIng part in an Indian naval exercise, alongside the US. The US withdrew and torpedoed the Iranian ship. THEN the US refused to rescue the sailors, letting them drown. This is treachery, cowardice, cruelty and a war crime of the highest order.

I have just found a company producing brackets for certain ebikes that replace redundant mid drive motors with a standard bottom bracket. With inbuilt obsolescence having crept into cycling via ebike tech, this is extremely welcome.

it's really understated how horrific car killings are

So much will be said about all this in the coming days, but IMO the biggest takeaway is that James Watt and Martin Dickie each pocketed more than the price BrewDog was eventually sold for, while 500 hardworking staff are now out of a job & 220k equity punks don't get a dime. Absolute charlatans.

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work. This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public. Please spread the word. 🧵 1/4

A neolib Labour government doing what it did last time. Quelle surprise. Shit timeline we've got here.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

If we’re ever going to get out of this, the British media class must be destroyed

Just finished the Behind the Bastards episodes on the impact of Jeffrey Epstein. And like a takeway is that he started funding anti-trans research because he allegedly SA'd a trans girl (she was 16 at the time) who turned around and sued his ass for it and he was mad that she sued him.

Took the boy out to laugh at Keir Starmer this morning.

The right are furious that a white, English tradesperson got elected.

Well, it seems that the stand off between this company and the Department of Defence over using its AI to kill people has ended.

OpenAI is a menace. Two recent stories make that clearer than ever. One day you have Sam Altman denigrating humanity to defend AI. The next, WSJ reveals OpenAI could have alerted Canadian police of a potential mass shooter, but refused pressure from employees. That person went on to kill 8 people.

Reading J.G. Ballard's The Drowned World at the moment, and damn is it prescient.
