Sometimes they throw us a sacrifice to maintain the (mostly unconvincing) facade of accountability for the political elite.

This led me to The White Lotus, a show that is for the same formless, self-involved white people that it's satirising?
In dire need of some bubblegum TV, the best I've managed is the 10 apps 24/7 South Park and Diagnosis Murder channels. Briefly dabbled with the Prisoner channel but I got too invested and that's not what I'm here for.

MAGA terrorist leaves his car in the middle of the road blocking traffic to attack a teenage anti-ICE protestor in Texas.
Watching this grown “man” get his ass pounded by a bunch of kids might be my favorite “there’s more of us than them” moment ever.

Wasn't there a guy who tried that, and literally everyone in the party and the media (including the New Statesman) screamed at full volume until that brief aberration was resolved, putting the shockingly corrupt Sensible Moderates back in charge?
Labour needs to bake morality into how it campaigns and governs.

Beginning to wish I had stuck with the corolla. They can take the abuse and have a more robust third-party part market. This German shit is a very expensive joke.

Love to have a routine service end up costing 8x more than expected. I should have paid it off by retirement age, at which point I'll get a gopher and drive that into the ground instead.

I'm usually somewhat resilient to the doomscroll, but the last couple of days have made it feel like I've been thrown into the sea with bricks tied to my feet.

w0w the government is gonna come down on these guys like a tonne of bricks
On the platforms used by real estate agents for renters, documents are exposed and accessible without any form of login, according to research.
I was able to view applications and lease agreements among other docs exposed. Most of the platforms didn't respond. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

A fine is merely the cost of doing business. We need to be throwing C-suite level people in jail.
Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"?
Well, it happens they were doing exactly that.
