it's not the worst thing AI is doing but: i love cat videos so much and it's so annoying that people are posting ai cat videos now

I am beyond angry at the way trans children are being systematically persecuted.

The full power, violence and force of our state is smashing down onto them, making their life impossible.

Title 42 migration restrictions have ended, but Biden’s new policy is tougher President pledged as a candidate to dismantle Trump’s hardline immigration agenda but new rules are more restrictive

Biden *went to court* to maintain Title 42 — an insane and, in my view, facially unlawful policy — for a full year after taking office. Then when he wound it down he moved to replace it with an even more stringent policy that was literally designed by Stephen Miller

Jim Ratcliffe's firms have received £70m handouts from the govt in the last 4 years and received ANOTHER £50m last month.

Can't believe that someone who survived the mother and baby homes didn't write a play about what a tremendously funny time she had there.

I want to win the world Snooker championship if we're reporting shite that's never gonna happen in a million years.

Beep Beep! We're hitting you with our Skoda Octavia! Try not to be distracted by its sleek styling as we pulverise your musculature!

On a first date I find you can tell a lot about a person if you ask them which Hogwarts house they're in. If they immediately get up and walk away never to speak to you again, you've struck gold. That's the one that got away. There was something real there.

That the illegal destruction of USAID will kill more than *20 million people* in the next five years, & has ALREADY KILLED 600,000 in just one year, is a world-historical crime that Americans aren't being told about in the terms & with the repetition necessary for them to believe it.

I'll be honest I don't think it counts as affair after three months that's just regular cheating

Starmer most unpopular PM ever

For those telling me I'm wrong about Starmer being one of the UK's worst PMs, & that Johnson, Sunak, Truss etc were worse—essentially, none of those people were elected with a 174-seat landslide for change, & immediately opted for continuity, authoritarianism & wooing actual fascists.

That's why.

Me in the Criterion Closet: wow Hollow Man, what a film

Criterion employee: you aren’t allowed to bring movies in

Me in the Criterion Closet shaking my sleeves in an odd way: wow Hollow Man 2, what a film

Imagine the mileage the "Corbyn was a Czech spy!" lads would've got out of any suggestion of that.

If we’d learned in 2018 that e.g. Seumas Milne was passing privileged government info to a secret network of influence-peddling sex offenders led by the world’s most notorious nonce - do you think the lads would struggle to understand why that had grave implications, far beyond Milne’s office?

This is the 38th time that the U.S. military has unlawfully killed civilians on the orders of Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump. At least 130 people — never charged with crimes, their identities unknown to their executioners — are now dead.

i can answer that for you. the cruelty of men deforms the world

I don’t want to jump to conclusions here but it sure does look like the government maliciously designated citizens as terrorists and then vexatiously detained hundreds of protestors on spurious political grounds, deliberately, as PR for continuing to facilitate the most serious war crimes. Seems bad

Starmer hired Mandelson (Epstein's mate) as US ambassador despite everyone knowing he hung out with Epstein post-conviction and was dodgy. What's getting revealed now is that he was also committing treason by passing on confidential government information. It's not just someone he hung out with.

That is not what is happening in the UK, Mr Onion.

Well yes, the whole "we didn't know" thing rather undermined by the fact that everyone remembers this exact discussion at the time, and having it explained to us by tedious centrists that these characteristics of Mandelson were actually a positive thing for the job.

A 2 panel sketch disgram of a 1 meter tall pod. in the second panel, an oval section pops off and a demonic little face with short tentacles flies out, crudely drawn.

My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

The bit when the horns kick in on Don Cherry's Orient is one of the heaviest drops in music.

Can't believe that the man who cut his teeth as Labour's bribe-procurement officer was not on the level!

Hanging out with some cuties

I really hope people advocating to ban kids from SM read this. Some kids are isolated by disabilities or circumstances. Furthermore, some kids grow up in abusive households. “Ideally, a child’s exposure to online worlds should be moderated by their parents” isn’t a reassuring sentiment for everyone

Times report: Allies of Rayner said they believed that Wes Streeting, the health secretary, would be “ruined” by the mass disclosure of all communications with Mandelson in coming months. Streeting and Mandelson were close allies for years.

In these dark days of February, a little something to look forward to.

That's that twee YouTube lad whose brother writes the sad books about dying teenagers.
