Who would play him? Domhnall Gleeson would be my shout. He's good at playing shifty wee rats with red hair.

this is very very funny. I always thought the issue was that he thought he could ignore politics, view government as a series of decisions and simply be the Manager of Britain. turns out he also doesn't make decisions.

I don't think there's any logical connection between being working class and wanting a computer program to write and produce music for you so you can pretend you did it. Also, you can get perfectly viable production software for not much money or even free.

This is the twelfth scandal he's claimed to know "nothing" about.

This is IMO fully consistent with Sir Keir being exactly what he appears to be: a clueless bonnet ornament on a car filled with crooks and shit gangsters, forever staring directly ahead, oblivious to the horrors behind.

Restore Britain have their first ever councillor, Maria Bowtell, ex-Tory & ex-Reform a longstanding Lowe associate (& an employee of Restore). She told me she "fully supports" Conor Tomlinson's proposal to ban all ethnic minorities from parliament & propose a Restore Britain policy paper on it

fellas, does it get more or less credible the more times you claim to know nothing while also being in charge?

When I meet a person who's been famous as a slimy, corrupt vizier for 30 years, I always assume they're acting in good faith and just report that they tell me to report. I'm a famous and respected journalist.

I can make music in my bedroom using only a computer and headphones. It was technically possible pre-2000 but is now much easier and sounds better.

Lord of the Rings and the Spider-Man trilogy both rule, because we took some absolute freak horror directors, gave them infinite budgets and never-before-seen CGI tech, and told them to make an all-quadrant family blockbuster based on the most beloved characters of the 20th century.

In case you're not aware, the game is broken. There was a melee surge so I used my Lightning Surge build. In two consecutive runs on Lawless Frontier, Lightning Surge just stopped working so I went and played another game that isn't broken.

The brain can be conceived as a type of computer but it's one we didn't design and don't fully understand how it works. If we can't get off the track of trying to understand it with reference to computers that we did design, we may never succeed in creating conscious machines.

Layman here but as far as I can tell, we're nowhere near solving what philosophers call the hard problem of consciousness. Without that, it's impossible to recreate consciousness in a machine. We're not going to stumble on it by accident.

There's something weird about Jack where he can't seem to be in a convincing romantic relationship with anyone. His relationships with Lemon and his mother seem completely authentic but all his girlfriends ring false.
