I blame Superman, because if he existed, he would surely have done something about this. But maybe he's just the capegoat.

I recognise that the audience for this pun is extremely niche, so I'm giving it a second chance. _At least_ a second chance.

I wanted to write a fanfic of The Time Machine in the style of Pride And Prejudice, but there's no magnetism with an Austenitic Eloi.

I've been asked to advise a local older ladies group about how to remove Meta AI from their phones. "You can't." I don't think I'll be invited back.

"Your job isn't at risk from AI, it's at risk from someone using AI" 1. Piss off 2. If you invested a million dollars in what I need to do a better job, you wouldn't need the AI you are buying 3. They are just cheaper, not better, that's the sunk cost fallacy

Apparently it's an urban myth that when Catherine The Great died, she was in a stable condition.

Anyone know the reason, presumably legal, why this doesn't get released globally when other episodes do?

Finally got to see this. Watch it if you haven't yet. And vote. If you don't want to vote for Biden - vote against Trump then. Because if you don't - we're all fucked. And yes, that includes you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYwq...

Kinda cool that Türkiye says "hey, can you stop using that name for us, please?" and people just generally do.

If folk keep putting pictures of hot people in my timeline I might have to consider blocking everyone else.

KFC employ people to file the sharp edges off their corn chips. The famous kernel sanders.

Corporations don't care unless they are made to. And, frankly, the CEOs etc should be personally criminally liable.

have you all heard of THE RADIUM GIRLS? if you haven’t, go look that up because any post i try to do won’t be enough and will get suppressed. come back when you’re done looking up THE RADIUM GIRLS okay. you done? cool. okay so Clarence Thomas wants to get rid of OSHA

NYT etc: On the one hand, everyone already knows that Trump is a stupid, authoritarian, incompetent, criminal, assaulter with associate plans to disrupt democracy to cover his acts. But on the other hand, people might not be aware that Biden is elderly and occasionally makes mistakes.

In the exact same nine day period that Biden and his White House and campaign have been flailing, Trump has offered voters a window into his own mental state and vision for term 2 It’s not great! www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

If Biden dies mid-term, I know the Supreme Court will find a way to give the presidency to Trump anyway

They are Corbynising Biden. Emphasise a flaw so strongly that relative neutrals have an excuse to vote for an obviously worse candidate.

Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss, Sunak. That's a con-sequence.

I suppose it's not like he'll live to regret it

This is shockingly solipsistic. And dangerous.

i’ll tell you what, man, if biden manages to survive and win another term, i hope he and his aides remember that it was mostly the ancient centrists — not the progressives and not the younger dems — who came behind up him with the knives, and that he responds in kind.

notably, “trying to assemble” and “has assembled” are two extremely different things and if he were able to do the latter, his ratshit ass wouldn’t be leaking the former.

I do like James O'Brien, but I simply cannot accept his tedious centrist false equivalence between Jacob Rees-Mogg, a vile, self-serving Victorian Where's Wally, and Jeremy Corbyn, a flawed, likely russophile, who always had the best interests of people as his focus.

Well, at least The Acolyte can't do anything worse than last week! Resets to factory settings

George Galloway *losing* his seat in an election where a bunch of single-issue pro-Palestine Independents were elected is really, really funny

Very few former Prime Ministers have ever lost their seat, so this is yet another groundbreaking moment for a most egregious politician.

LIZ TRUSS! AHAHAHA

It's beginning to look a lot like people voted Conservative to stop Reform from winning.

More people voted Reform (3.8M - 4 seats) than LibDem (3.2M - 66 seats) As awful as that would be, MMP is still preferable. Tactical voting is a scourge.
