Two black Arsenal players won the game for England so of course all the chat is about Phil Foden who played a 5 yard pass 👍

The president of the united states is a pedophile rapist who was best buddies with Jeffrey Epstein and spent hours with an underage victim at Epstein's home. Now he's currently huddled in the situation room directing a cover up about it like it's a seal team 6 operation. Do I have that right?

“Ran” is a masterwork, and Nakadai lives at the very heart of it’s beauty and pain. May he rest, a fabulous artist.

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

I want to stay in the country so I can fight authoritarianism with all my strength. I want to flee the country so I don't have to do it with the Democrats

Bartels did a study 20+ years ago looking at how much a member of Congress' record coincided with their constituents' views, broken down by income. MCs are a lot more responsive to their wealthier constituents. Think about whom SNAP and flight delays affect. www.russellsage.org/sites/defaul...

Neanderthals like Dan smith and ryan Shawcross took careers from some of our best and brightest young players while pundits called us soft. They can all, respectfully, go fuck themselves now with their pantomime pining for dainty, flowing football.

Remember when they’d break our players’ legs & then say “Arsenal don’t like it up ‘em”?
Well now we’re the toughest fuckers in the league. We stand up to any physical challenge & dominate the opposition in both boxes.
Let them fucking cry about it. Just makes this even sweeter

Several of the fundamental misunderstandings about human creativity / art, what has value, and what AI can’t do on display.

Creation - writing, art, music, etc - is an inherently human process. AI literally CANNOT do it.

And some of the value derives from the humanity and struggling in the making.

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Washington Post dismantled the platform Jamal wrote on. Discarded the fellowship they created in his memory.

They fired me unjustly for speaking the truth.

But I’ll never stop talking about my friend, writer, and amazing human, Jamal Khashoggi.

RIP, Jamal.
