🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.

she must mean some definition of 'vindicated' that requires you to be wine-drunk and ranting

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America.

And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.

Inshallah it's a peaceful holiday when you get to it bro.

The only moral leader of the western world.

I guess, suddenly, they can tolerate all the "woke" that drove them out of the UK in the first place.

it is actually impressive how bewilderingly shitty we've made the simple act of buying a train ticket in this country

Fare dodgers targeted as train ticket refund rules are tightened In a bid to clamp down on ticket fraud that costs the railways millions each year, the government has quietly changed the rules on claiming refunds for unused train tickets.

DON'T BUY TRAIN TICKETS IN ADVANCE!
On 1 April, the government is quietly changing the rules.
Off-Peak & Anytime tickets become non-refundable after 23:59 the day BEFORE you travel.
If you wake up & find your event cancelled, NO REFUNDS, even on £100+ tickets.

It's remarkable how easy a functioning press could shatter these fragile fascist losers to pieces with very little effort.

“No stupid rules of engagement” is a hell of a thing to say after killing 165 little girls at school in Minab, Iran.

i love the use of the word "invaluable" here, it is doing so much, a great use of language in the name of basic, unevolved greed

It’s 2026. We really should all be questioning anthology projects with zero women in them. Not boosting them.

The NYT style guide

In other news pushups are awful, do not recommend.

(Please do exercise)

“We cannot say that the United States’ actions are against international law, but we condemn Iran’s retaliatory actions as against international law,” is neither a coherent nor a compelling position.

I hope as Tommy Robinson flees Dubai he settles in the first safe country he arrives in

There’s a pretty robust case to make that the Iran Hostage crisis of 1979, the revolution itself, and the policies of the Iranian government towards the US
since, was all blowback from the CIA’s decision to overthrow Mossadegh in 1953. www.cnn.com/2013/08/19/p...

I know it was achoo Fredo?

oh hey, there happens to be a school in the US Navy Fifth Fleet base that was attacked. and magically, somehow, they were able to target military installations and not the school. imagine that! did you know all this information is accessible to you? bahraines.dodea.edu/school-about...

To understand what's happening in Iran today, you have to know about the history of Western intervention in the country.

In the early 1900s, the British secured oil rights in the country until 1993, where they only agreed to pay Iran 16% of the total profits.

This was seen as an unfair deal. 🧵

I'm not surprised. Disgusted, yes, but not surprised.

Comic panel showing the Hulk reading a newspaper, saying "everyone dumb."

I really fucking hate the recent trend of prestige publications just giving politicians carte blanche to write high-profile op-eds like they're objective experts on something

The Economist, WaPo, NYT—they've become like those industry-specific corporate magazines where most the articles are sponcon

anyone choosing this moment to be all "here's what you get with republicans: bombs in the middle east" needs to grow up rapidly, considering what the last dem admin did in gaza & their current support for trump's actions right now. this is what you get with (wholly bipartisan) american imperialism

Disappointed (but not entirely surprised) this #cartoon didn't find a home. #doglife #dogs #business
