Statement from Virginia Giuffre’s family: “Our broken hearts have been lifted by the news that no one is above the law, not even royalty... He was never a prince. For survivors, everywhere, Virginia did this for you.”

I hear Charles I had some minor disagreements with the legal establishment of his day.

What a great birthday present for Andrew Mountbatte-Windsor.

A bot would get the year right, only furthering your point. A masterstroke if you think about it.

Being anti-AI isn't being anti-all-technology, it's anti-bad-technology.

AI doesn't work on its own terms, isn't economically sustainable on capitalist terms, costs of compute only seem to go up at scale, requires wide scale copyright theft (which would be acceptable if the little guy was also allowed a little piracy, but we're still not) & is an environmental disaster

There's plenty of technology that doesn't exist solely to enrich Jensen Huang & NVidia shareholders, doesn't require accelerating the climate emergency to fuel it, & isn't being pushed by useful idiots to sustain the bubble as long as possible. Oh, & technology that gives you right answers is nice!

'It was just meant to be': How Japan's most fearless women (and MySpace) helped Smackgirl shape MMA's future In 2001, women's MMA was more of an idea than a full-fledged sport — especially out east. But that changed with one promotion that dared to go against the grain.

With Carano and Rousey in the spot light, let me share @drakeriggs.bsky.social wonderful article on the first big name in Women's MMA, Megumi Fujii. Much less problematic than either Gina and Ronda.

OK, but what about the Tories' 1992 Trade Union & Labour Relations Act? Still done sod all about the right to secondary strikes. And nada about restrictions on picketing.

On page 45 of their 2024 manifesto, Labour committed to ending the age differential that means younger workers get a lower minimum wage.

The efficiency of the market in distributing goods to where they need to be!!!

Always exciting (*horrifying*) to see Jake Shields crop up in UK politics chat.

I finished, after having to take a break from spiritually pure, noble procrastination to does some spiritually degenerative work.

All the links are from VK. I found out yesterday some ISPs block dot RU urls? Seems mental to me but if that's not your ISP then you're golden

This is just X posting without the racism

Honestly a shame it's not going to be a celebrity boxing thing. Watching Ronda box would be very funny

So, there's no way this isn't a super one-sided fight, right?

Carano hasn't been in the cage in 17 years, Rousey was always a better athlete. If this goes into the 2nd round I'd be amazed

Sounds like you need Dude Wipes!

26 matches, 6 from CMLL & NJPW, 2 each from AEW, Marigold, SEAdLINNNG & Stardom, & 1 each from Dragongate, AJPW, NOAH, Prominence, Tokyo Joshi Pro & Sendai Girls.

SEAdLINNNG have as many matches at 4.25+ through February as they managed all year 2025 so that's nice.

Give in to a strong desire to procrastinate today so I've gone back to my wrestling spreadsheet & started putting in (free) links to all the matches I rated ****¼ or higher

Still got 7 to do to be update, but hey, if you want to see some good 2026 wrestling, there's good 2026 wrestling on there.

Great ad. Though ironically BBC output would be 1000% better if they commissioned all of these. But please send this to all present day BBC execs as a reminder of what their job is.

Counselor: These feelings of "everything sucks," how long have you had them? Butt-head: Uhh, since everything started to suck, I guess.

Here it is, your moment of zen.

Hani Mahmoud: "I'm not really sure if we can keep calling this a ceasefire, so let's just call a spade a spade. When you have four months of supposed ceasefire, you end up with 600+ Palestinians killed, close to 1,600 of various injuries.. this is not a ceasefire anymore" 🎯

Israel Foreign Ministry tweet: The UN Social Development Commission has a vital role in promoting social inclusion, well-being & equality. How could anyone think the Islamic Republic of Iran is appropriate for the job? Drawing of 11 bodies hanging from nooses, text "Iran Appointed Vice Chair of UN Commission for Social Development"

Jasper Nathaniel tweet from December: Ben Gvir and friends wearing a noose to signal their support for executing detainees, clearly designed to look like a yellow hostage ribbon at first glance. That’s heritage minister Amichai Eliyahu on the right, who oversees the ethnic cleansing of Sebastia. with image of Ben Gvir and others, and a close up of the noose pin https://x.com/infinite_jaz/status/1998027139992662329

Funny to post this while multiple Israeli officials are wearing yellow noose pins as part of their call for further state violence against Palestinians.

Yeah, but what if 16 year olds see this?
