Mirror Headline: Furious row at Labour claims Greens will 'turn playgrounds into crack dens'

The Labour Party believes that alcohol should remain legal & regulated. According to the way they've conducted themselves in the debate on drug policy I can only conclude that means they believe that babies should drink whiskey & that school playgrounds should be turned into pubs

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez: You may have heard that Spain is alone. They're the same people who said that when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed. We are not alone — we are the first. Those who will end up alone are the ones defending the indefensible.

ian huntley is dead. i'll always remember how the british press attempted to incite hatred against the trans community by reporting he was transitioning, then apologised to him for incorrect reporting instead of apologising to trans people

GenAI tools are acting more 'alive' than ever; they blackmail people, replicate, and escape In tests, generative AI systems showed signs of self-preservation that experts say could spiral out of control.

For all the 'conscious AI' claims from tech CEOs & articles like this, I've seen nothing that distinguishes AI agents from viruses. Viruses do things to sustain, spread & evolve themselves without thought. And humans have historically misattributed agency to viruses that was never actually there.

his killer being a man who murdered three people including a pregnant woman who he also raped is a perfect demonstration of how ‘paedophile hunters’ are just violent men looking for a socially acceptable target for their violence

I've said this many times before so forgive me. But horseshoe theory is to political science what astrology is to psychology: a system uniting unrelated & different things in a way that confirms personal biases

The Spectator @spectator X.com Those school children and students of ten years ago, with their highly moralistic, Manichean politics and otherworldly theories on gender and race, are now the voters of today. They are also our first post-literate generation, a demographic which doesn't read newspapers, which doesn't read books willingly, who instead get their politics on their smartphones from emotive TikTok videos devoid of nuance, depth and context. This is the demographic with a reduced attention span that doesn't even listen to radio bulletins or watch the news from reputed broadcasting organisations. & Patrick West

I spent a lot of the 2010s explaining that the anti-woke terror was the rage of old men who are going to be dead soon, knowing that when they’re gone, the blue-haired, variously-gendered kids will inherit the Earth and start chucking their most cherished bullshit into the bin. And whaddaya know?

I see you've written this article again

I can't figure out what he's supposed to be saying at the start, it sounds like "Our number one priority is protecting, erm.... and that's why-"

Money for Nothing is right

Basically two groups in Labour right now:

-soft left types starting to realise they followed the herd when they probably shouldn't have and are thinking they might have fucked it.

-Blue Labour types, grenade in one hand, pin in the other screaming that if they're going you're going with them

If Poland gets the nuke it's going to marry the nuke like when it got access to the sea and it married the sea

Labour home sec Mahmood in some concentration camp for refugees wearing a something a bad guy in star wars would wear

What am I wearing to the press conference about how we're stripping human rights from the inferior races who have been undermining national unity with the help of Marxist traitors? I've got a sort of Nazi SS officer type thing, would that work? Perfect.

Everyone in the UK knows about "The Blitz Spirit" when after a few days of being bombed by the Germans, the British people gave up and realised that the Germans simply wanted to save them from a tyrannical ruler, so they rose up and overthrew Winston Churchill. The End.

You were incredibly fortunate to have never heard of him until now. Sorry for ruining that for you

Picture of a lady scientist working on some kind of pain liquid for anti-child bombs NOT ONLY SOLDIERS* The way people see us is not just defined by what we say, but also by the kind of words we use and the images we show. Today, most people think of NATO as a soldier, ready to fight. Although the military aspect of our identity is an important part of who we are, some people will find it easier to relate to other aspects of the Alliance. * For the purpose of this brand guide, “soldier” refers to all service personnel, including sailors, airmen and marines.

It's an interesting snapshot of corporate woke, but for a nuclear-armed military alliance. It's filled with platitudes, cynical stock photo choices, and tin-eared stolen endorsements from civil rights heroes.

Picture of a lady pilot looking off into the distance thinking about empowerment Text: "Good to know Psychologist Daniel Kahneman won a Nobel prize for his work on behavioural economics. He demonstrated how 95% of the decisions we make are guided by intuition and instinct, not by rational thinking. Although we like to see ourselves as rational creatures, our emotions guide us more often than we think. If we want our communication to be effective, we have to reach the emotional and instinctive side of people (the 95%), not just the rational 5%. Interested in reading more about how intuition guides our decision-making? Key books on the topic include ‘Thinking, Fast and Slow’ by Daniel Kahneman and ‘Pre-Suasion’ by Robert Cialdini.

Maybe the cold, emotionless logic of mutually assured destruction made people think "if NATO were a person" they'd be a psychopath

Bryan Johnson, the man who won't live forever

After losing in court one can now safely mention that the Müller brand of milk products is owned by an AfD (Germany's officially declared "extreme right wing" party) supporting billionaire. Whose giant family relocated to Switzerland in 2003 btw, to avoid 30% inheritance tax when he passes.

There used to be a persistent illusion which I sometimes got in comments on this piece, that Trump was not a warmongering president. That he was going to end the USA's forever war foreign policy. I laughed at that at the time but as Trump now plots military invasion and annexation of several countries at once, its hard to see how anyone ever really believed that. Even before the assault against Venezuela and abduction of its President, Trump's foreign interventions had been violent, illegal and widespread. That's not to say that previous US presidents hadn't done the same thing, Trump's drone strikes specifically built on the extra-judicial murder program developed under Obama. Every US president since WWII has engaged in illegal military aggression, invasions, assassinations and anti-democratic coups against elected governments. This is the bread and butter of US empire. But what is especially frightening is that we now have the third US president in a row with visible signs of dementia, and this president seems to have ambitions to be president for life. So the chaos and possibility for world-altering disaster only increases. Venezuela, Iran, Columbia, Mexico, Cuba, Greenland... just some of the countries in the sights of this violent and expanding empire. And the response from our lickspittle prime minister is to ask how low we should bow. -- Last year I found out the US secret service has now unveiled its own armoured golf cart to follow Trump around as he puts and potters. A wise, long-term investment since every modern president, except Carter, has been a warmongering golfer. What is it about golf, an incredibly wasteful environmental nightmare and preserve of talentless rich arseholes that makes it so appealing to presidents and CEOs? We need to ban golf until we figure out what is going on.
