Following the release of two albums last month, Automatic and Stick, @mrjimbob.bsky.social isn't resting on his laurels as he posts a new track Not Your President Not My King inspired by the recent Windsor Castle Trump Banquet...

As an anthropologist, I'm inclined to try to understand stuff that looks like magical thinking rather than mock it, but proposing to build a God and then expecting him to tell you how to get rich is really testing all of my professional training...
From the replies (bsky.app/profile/dasb...) here's Sam Altman doing what the quoted post described. He seems serious about it.

Remortgaging one buy to let property to finance another should be illegal. You just end up with a load of grifter landlords with 10 properties with only about 10% equity in each one getting their tennant's to pay their mortgages.

Dear EU friends. I bring good news! I can once again ship to all EU countries. I encourage you to celebrate this fact by blowing literally all of your money in my shop. Alternatively you could give this a little retweet. Either option is greatly appreciated.

So rude. So undiplomatic. So ignorant. So unprofessional.

God America… How quickly you’re pissing away your reputation and your relationships. You may be loving this. But it makes you look really cheap and nasty. And very stupid.

Trump on NATO: “If the US was in trouble and we called them. You think they're going to come and protect us? I’m not so sure.”

This already happened, after 9/11. And every single member state backed the US. He really does talk a load of old blathering shite.

So down the road from me in Yorkshire there is a US listening station. While it shared info with Ukraine many welcomed it. Now it won't even share info with the British hosts it has to go. We don't want spies for Russia on British soil.
❗️The US has banned Britain from sharing intelligence from Washington with Ukraine as part of its refusal to support Zelensky, – Daily Mail.

Maureen Cleave describing the Rolling Stones to Evening Standard readers in 1964. I think this is my favourite passage in all music writing. It's packed with detail and tension, but nothing is unnecessary.
