Inslee: If you need more energy, the dumbest thing you can do is disallow access to wind, solar, and advanced batteriesβ€”three of the most productive ways of producing new energy. And yet, that’s exactly what he’s done.

The threat to our society is not from asylum seekers in small boats. It’s from politicians and media cynically whipping up fear and prejudice, labelling them all as criminals, inciting hatred against people for where and what they’ve fled from.
It must stop. For all our sakes. It’s deeply sinister.

Reddit post on r/technology about young people and AI: "I recently heard about a teacher who instead of trying to circumvent students using AI, which is impossible, she made assignments by going "ask ChatGPT to write a report on this subject, and then research how and why it's wrong".

Not only did the students discover that ChatGPT is extremely wrong a lot of the time, it also lead them to realise that they should not use it as a primary source".

This is one of the best ideas I've heard in ages.

We have a Labour government refusing doctors’ pay rise, causing strikes in the NHS.

A Labour govt that cut aid to starving Palestinians who it is selling weaponry to Israel to kill.

A Labour govt that week-in, week-out, accuses foreigners of destroying our country, to justify it all. #r4today

I'd just give it away to animal sanctuaries and charities that advocate for the vegan way of life (do the least harm).

Most of the Sure Start centres opened by Labour were closed down by the Tories as part of their austerity measures.

I haven't got a historic house, but I do live next to Epping Forest. It occasionally offers gifts of old bottles (old litter, really). The complete ones I keep, the broken ones get recycled.

What’s happening in Gaza is a crime against humanity. A massive collective moral failure. An abomination. A permanent stain. Israeli leaders, Hamas, and their respective int’l backers are damned to the core. Gaza is a living hell. May their persecutors rot there for eternity in their afterlives.

While it's disappointing to hear that Rod Stewart supports divisive gobshite Nigel Farage, it's very good of him to announce it just in time to be told to fuck off by 200,000 people at Glastonbury.

Roger Hallam’s release on probation is now delayed indefinitely. Why?

- Home rejected over a Just Stop Oil link
- Labeled "high-risk" after press named his probation officer
- New officer ignores legal letters
- Prison staff refuse meetings

Reform UK is proposing a "Britannia card" that would let wealthy foreigners pay a Β£250k fee to move to the UK, and live here exempt from all tax on their foreign assets

What they don't say: it would cost the UK Β£34bn
