IOF Context Insister 🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ 🇱🇧

@bradwright.bsky.social Big fan of your Outer Limits episodes. Are there any plans to publish the scripts in the future? Would love to read Trial By Fire, A Quality Of Mercy and The Light Brigade, etc.

The larger context of the NoTW (and later NBC) reporting on beatings in Irish schools is that so many stories like this in Ireland had to break in international media first.

The treatment of women in Magdalene Laundries was brought to public attention by BBC Scotland.

You can't imagine how touching your support is to our hearts and how much it supports us morally. All your support is appreciated. Just share the post if you can't donate.

A former user of a message board I frequent had a posting style almost identical to the guy embarrassing himself in flyingrodent’s replies here. Wonder if it’s the same person…

Though them giving Chelsea £26m is sort of like when one of us moves money from our N26 card to Revolut.

r/ChatGPTPro u/vurto • 28d If ChatGPT is not consistently dependable, how are we suppose to use it for actual work? Discussion It's behavior and results can randomly change due to some OpenAl tweaking that's opaque. On some days it can't even keep track of a fresh chat, it can't do calculations, it can't sort through a chat to extract relevant information, and when it's suppose to refer to source material in a PDF, it doesn't. All because OpenAl trained it for fluency and basically to simulate whatever it can for user satisfaction. I can use it for general chats, philosophical stuff, therapy, but nothing serious. I'm pro Al, but I approach it with skepticism knowing it's undependable (as I do with anything I read). And prompts can be interpreted/executed differently across users' own interaction with their Als so it's not truly scalable. How does the business world / leaders expect staff to adopt Al if it's not consistently dependable? It doesn't even calculate like a calculator. If the internet start claiming 2+2=5, that's what it'll answer with. I'd use it for hobbies and pet projects but I can't imagine using it for anything "mission critical".

You're so close

The thought of what happened to my  grandmother in a Magdalene Laundry haunts me The thought of what happened to my grandmother in a Magdalene Laundry haunts me

My gran was everything to me. She raised me, guided me, and taught me to love books. She’s why I became a writer. I’m working on a novel inspired by her life. The first part will tell of her time as a teenage girl inside Ireland’s monstrous Magdalene Laundries www.heraldscotland.com/news/2536103...

Aerial photo of the destruction of Gaza City by Heidi Levine

This photo of Gaza City had to be illicitly taken during a Jordanian food drop because Israel has threatened to cancel drops of any photos are taken.

We don't need a 'Democratic Stephen Miller.' We need Democrats who will unapologetically fight for our values.

We don't need a 'Joe Rogan of the Left.' We need a progressive media ecosystem that will unapologetically fight for our values.

We don't need their playbook. We need to believe in us.

western countries are talking about whether to recognize a palestinian state, while israel keeps slaughtering dozens of palestinians each and every day

A woman a few seats from us started hyperventilating during the ending of Paranormal Activity.

Got me thinking.. What's the strongest reaction you've seen an audience member have to a scene in a cinema?

During the birthday party scene in SIGNS I saw a whole row of young women literally throw their popcorn in the air like a cartoon.

A pleasant byproduct of Dunt’s periodic brainwrong emissions is you find a lot of sound new people to follow in the replies.

"The left cannot succeed unless it gets real slutty with it." - Ian Dunt for some unkowable reason.

I’d liken it to a group of lads who have a misogynist abuser in their number and bend over backwards not to confront the fact: “Look, we all know he can get a bit mental on a night out but basically he’s a good lad and anyway, if you’d seen what happened to him when he was a kid, you’d understand.”

.@adamtooze.bsky.social on the singular character of the Israeli-imposed famine in Gaza:

JWexTheSpa @jwsidders.bsky.social Follow If you do not use your vote to stop the right winning power at the next election, you are enabling it to happen. And it may well be the last meaningful vote you ever have. Your choice. Your responsibility. July 13, 2025 at 9:43 AM @ Everybody can reply

I mean, what are we supposed to do here? Are we to queue up to vote for people who hate us, keep telling us they think we are scum, operate decade-long media campaigns terrorising the public against us and has now set the police on us as *fucking terrorists* for opposing their horrific policies?

If someone claims to have been a former Labour voter and are going to vote Reform: legitimate concerns. Must be listened to. Labour must Get More Racist.

If someone was actually in the party and was told to leave for having morals: Your concerns are pathetic. Vote for Labour while we insult you.

This framing is so interesting to me because Labour literally called me a "flea" that they were happy to "shake off" despite the fact that I was very involved in the party. But I am apparently still supposed to vote for them even after they told me not to do so. Is my vote important or not?

“This is all because some people impudently asked for trans people not to be murdered,” Tim thinks to himself as he watches footage of ICE agents brutalising someone with a Hispanic surname.

Yeah, we’re doing all our reading: Reading about children being starved to death. Maybe that little detail bypassed Tim.

Starmer was brought in to get rid of the left by any means necessary and if that means supporting the genocide of the people of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, then that is just too bad: the lads have their important jobs back, and that is the only thing that matters.

THIS. Every time I log into $service, I'm presented with the "opportunity!" to use their related LLM. I'm in the path for services at my company and there's a lot of LLMs being forced into our agreements and, later, increases in pricing due to the LLMs that we didn't ask for.

Tweet from the worstcunt starmer: We're cracking down on migrants working illegally as food delivery riders. We'll share asylum accommodation locations with Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats so they can take action if riders are staying there. We will do what it takes to ensure fairness for British people.

Not the first time this prick has went after delivery riders

Suddenly media outlets are noticing the catastrophe enveloping Gaza.

We warned you what Israel would do from the start.

There are no excuses.

Don't let the complicit erase their guilt 👇

The Irish version is if you burn down buildings that you suspected a migrant might have been near, well, the cops sadly don't have the training to do anything about it.

If you're a grandmother protesting a genocide though, then By God, expect the full force of An Garda Siochana on your head

A reminder that Bret Stephens, in addition to his deeply mendacious Zionism, is also a climate change denier and once published a column advocating race science in the NYT.
