Saw someone describe Jeffrey Epstein as “The disgraced pedophile Jeffrey Epstein” and I’m torn between wondering if the “disgraced” is superfluous, and pondering how bad of a pedophile do you have to be to be disgraced in the child rape community.

What words remain for a government that goes to court to insist it be allowed to continue selling weapons to a state committing genocide, then sends a letter of complaint when those weapons are used?

More economic bad news!
There's a solution: begin negotiations towards rejoining the EU. The mere act of beginning would lower borrowing costs and give Labour much-needed headroom.
And of course actually rejoining would be a huge adrenaline boost to the economy.

Missed this in Friday's Politico PM: "Home Sec Yvette Cooper took GB News and the Sun on an immigration raid at a caravan park in Kent this week." Cosy!
"She talked tough about cracking down on illegal migrant workers, although none were found on the raid."

terfs are so heinous that they’re ready to claim things like “men are better at chess than woman because they’re smarter” just to own trans women
a trans woman won a german chess competition and terfs wanted to ban trans women from women’s chess.
our chess association said they can’t do that because it would be against the law and discrimination lol.

the amount of people who still don’t understand this utterly foundational fact is staggering
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

What POSSIBLE advantage, even in the warped mind of a transphobe, could being transgender give you at chess? They’re so nakedly hateful they just can’t stand any trans person winning anything ever. Pathetic.
