For years, British politicians have been using the dual-loyalty canard to conflate the interests of British Jews with those of the government of Israel. I didn't think you could also do that with a football team.

I'm surprised "have you tried going for a walk while you're on this years-long waiting list?" works that well.

I wrote a formula in PowerBI today that I know will break in the year 3000 and that's annoying me far more (a little) than it should be (not at all).

They should make game devs retire by 40 and talk about it professionally afterwards like they do with players. Peter Molyneux's reputation would've been saved.

Reminder that the entire modern anti-vax movement was created by a guy who first licensed all the separate components of a singular breakup of MMR vaccines and then fabricated a study saying the MMR vaccines caused autism.

This is Andrew Wakefield's dream fully come true.

I feel like I'm going crazy because I thought Peter Mandelson was appointed precisely because he was a corrupt sycophant who loves paedophiles. Keir Starmer wanted someone who could have a good relationship with Trump and he had the perfect guy for that.

I actually had to quickly delete that reply and rewrite because I accidentally gave the correct information when trying to bullshit the wrong information. LLMs are better at some things, I guess.

Okay, Mr Prime Minister. Did you know the Cross of St Patrick is offset slightly in a clockwise direction. You can tell it's orientated correctly when the red X is lower in the top-right corner than on the left. Don't get it wrong, Sir!

Sure, let's get into some vexillology! Here's a short quote about flags for your interview:

"I'm very encouraging of flags. I think they're patriotic and a great symbol of our nation."

Would you like to hear more about flags?

Does this mean a bunch of European flags are also protected as religious symbols, since they have crosses on them?
