So, imagine a 2028 that ends with a normal election and a Democratic president.

Does that president punish CBS? Does he kick it out of the Brady room's front row? Does his FCC go after its licenses? Does his FTC probe the Skydance deal?

No, probably not. No fear of reprisal if power shifts back.

Google search for "austria hungary in space" Google excitedly tells you about the 1889 orbital flight, and that by 1908 there was a Mars research output with 30 people.

How many trillions of dollars have been invested into this technology so far?

Badenoch reading Vimes' Boots Theory of Socio-economic Unfairness and thinking how much more economic growth comes from making poorer people buy cheap boots over and over

Pic of Plestia Alaqad overlaid with text from interview: Plestia Alaqad: I can't believe that it's almost — [she pauses] no, it's not almost, it's actually two years. Okay, I can't believe that it's been two years of this ongoing genocide. When I was reporting in Gaza for 45 days, these 45 days felt like 45 years. And now it's 200 days feeling like 200 years for the people who are actually still on the ground facing bombing, displacement and starvation, which is being used as a method by Israel. Israel is literally ethnically cleansing people in Gaza, and we're watching a genocide unfold live on TV.

23-year-old journalist Plestia Alaqad, like many Gazans, lost her home in the first days after October 7. unable to reenter her homeland, stuck watching the horror continue, she’s publishing her diaries from reporting on the ground.

The UK is within spitting distance of having more murders portrayed annually on TV shows and movies set in the country than occur in real life

We'd better get rid of an extra half-million cars then, just to be on the safe side.

JFC the man has not one ounce of shame in him.

He went to private school and Cambridge. He owns three homes and rents a fourth!

The politics of migration have shifted so far to the extreme right, the Conservatives and Reform now have a more hardline policy on deporting legal British residents than... the British National Party did in 2005

This is how propaganda works. They slapped an image on this from Los Angeles in 1992 during Rodney King riots.

Robert Jenrick likes laughing at Hitler jokes and singing about how "we're all racist now", because he's a racist. #ToryRacism

I did the "3 minute thesis" thing during my PhD and the only way I managed that 180 seconds was to memorize the whole thing phonetically and then fully enter a fugue state

This is a much better tactic than my usual go-to (freeze, forget everything you had planned to say, cry)

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Insta post: mullet_minion420 "THE ENLIGHTENED CENTRIST" Follow I'm not left or right I'm a secret third thing (right) You see it's all about striking a balance Between criticizing the left and defending the right I respect all political viewpoints It's just a coincidence I only happen to show support for the right wing ones I'm above all that partisan fighting Basically I found a way to feel superior to both sides without taking any principled positions Both sides are equally bad I think antifascism is the same as fascism and should be treated exactly the same, which says a lot about what I really believe if you think about it I STAND FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING LMAO

💀💀

meanwhile the UK state sincerely wants to rip out all copyright protections for the UK creative industry to feed it into the slop generator because it's THE FUTURE BAYBEE

Hey Polly, quick question lol - any other UK political parties you think should hear this advice?

What should happen: National revulsion, hounded out of public life

What will happen: New set design for Sky News as three very, very right wing parties fight out The Deportation Election

If I were an investigative journalist in the UK (are there any left?), I would be having a good look at the extent to which NHS leadership seems to have allied itself with a fringe medical movement that more or less condones conversion therapy. qnews.com.au/australian-r...

Bari Weiss Named CBS News Editor-In-Chief, Solidifying Network's Rightward Shift The network will also acquire her publication, The Free Press, for a hefty sum.

Reminder to boycott @cbsnews.com and Paramount Plus. Bari Weiss is a transphobic anti-Black Islamophobic racist who has repeatedly accused Palestinians of faking genocide, said Islam is at war with the west, platformed and spread lies that trans people are a social contagion,

Last week Jesse Watters spoke to man named Eric who claimed he was formerly a member of antifa. Two years ago Watters interviewed Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza, a former Mexican Mafia member. Some folks thought the men looked similar. This is a side by side comparison. 🤷‍♀️

Keir Starmer’s spokesman asked about Israel detaining British citizens who were on the Gaza aid flotilla, while in international waters, replies that it is a “matter for the Israeli Government”

Ohhhh not staying the order is *really interesting*. The tidal shift we're seeing in the past two or three weeks in how much judges are *completely done* with the presumption of regularity and refusing to play Calvinball is fascinating

BBC Laura Kuenssberg Show Accused of Anti-Green Bias After Cancelling Zack Polanski Interview The new Green Party leader was the only major party leader not to have been granted a conference interview on the flagship BBC show

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.

This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

perfect detail

Shut the fuck up cunt

woke up with hiccups. can't think of a more cursed and unlikely start to a day
