Had forgotten about this angle. Dreading another summer of racist “protests” with Starmer hiding in a cupboard
Just occurred to me that, if Labour MPs wait until *after* the 2026 locals to move on Starmer, then he’d still be PM for most of next summer (assuming there wasn’t a coronation in the race to replace him) when it inevitably all kicks off again

The answer to this is that if we do not repeatedly reinforce the taboo against this stuff and explain why it is wrong it gets worse. “Just call it names” does not work. We’ve seen the failure of that over the past 18 months.
Jim Ratcliffe is a completely useless idiot which we can see from the joy of Amorim, why take the clown seriously? Honestly just tell the twat to fuck off.

Feeling down about the Evil Resident in 10 Downing Street/the White House/insert other governmental residence here? Why not take your mind off it by thinking about - *gunshot*
We're back with a one off poll ahead of Resident Evil's 30th anniversary next month.
Rank as many mainline (see image for what counts) Resident Evil games as you wish. If you strongly dislike a game, it is better not to rank it at all.
If you need help ranking, see follow-up tweet

Watching Andor with the rents, finally just caught up to where I got to when I binged it whilst Season 1 was still being released ("never more than 12"). Never got round to watching the rest

I'm ok with (or have made my peace with) a bit of editing after you've taken a photo, but the cameras that manipulate the image before even saving it cross a line imho
One of my more pessimistic beliefs is phone photos won't be acceptable as evidence in court by the end of the decade

This reminds me, I hate how common it is now to advertise phone cameras with features that defeat the point of a photo being to capture a specific moment in time

I have a DSLR specifically because phone camera auto-processing is so overwhelming to the experience of taking a photo
I used to love taking photos as a kid, but when phones became the replacement for entry-level photography it wasn't the same, and until I borrowed a DSLR I didn't realise quite why

Incidentally, this has reminded me of when I got blocked on here for arguing with the David Graeber Institute that "Logistics Manager" wasn't a "bullshit job". I hope every one of them is waiting on a vital package from Southern Texas.
All this speculation about the potential horrid things the airspace closure around El Paso could signifiy, and all I can think of is the logistics managers having the *worst* day and week of their lives.

I'm still deeply sceptical, tbh, I just also recognise the exact same groupthink that leads BlueSky to be collectively wrong about other things
From replies to this, I do think BlueSky AI scepticism is massively overcorrecting, and there's also a fair amount of delusion that the hurt from the bubble popping will fall squarely on the companies responsible, rather than just being a brutal global recession
I understand why people are exhausted by AI hype, and why those of us squarely in the corner of "human dignity uber alles" see AI doomerism as self-serving hype, but I *really* think people on the left broadly need to start thinking seriously about the possibiltiy of the hype being...true.

Well done to Sky for correcting this bit of ignorance.
As shown extensively in the Epstein files there's plenty of proof that being rich doesn't mean you have any great insights into the world.

Yes, in the UK it isn't a naive and/or insane liberal policy but a decision by a chain of consequent governments to starve and erode police and justice systems in exchange for voters' tax cuts.
Is it? They don’t really exist in the UK. It’s fun and I’m all for it on the basis, but it can also be self-soothing for ignoring who the pro-crime forces in the UK actually are.
