A word of advice for all you scammers out there: Never go out and leave the work experience kid in charge of the scams. It makes you look unprofessional.

Trevor Noah should double-dare Trump to take this to court, where claims of his visits to Epstein Island can be discussed at length. With evidence and witnesses and all that kind of stuff.

Did I just imagine that weird period where Boris Johnson, Brexit hero, was PM and designed his very own Brexit, to cheers and applause from the Brexit faithful?
Was that not a 'proper Brexit' after all? Is it not a proper Brexit until we're all out of work and no one speaks Polish on the bus?
look an entire newspaper has been kicked in the head by a horse

Announcing the new book from one of the greatest music writers of his generation, @simonreynolds.bsky.social

Still in a Dream, out this June, is the definitive story of the slackers and shoegazers who reinvented rock, as the music they created reverberated through the late 80s into the early 90s.

The sooner this bubble bursts, the better for everyone.
'the UK creative industries — which contributed £125 billion to the economy in 2024 and supported 2.4 million jobs — are being destroyed by an AI sector that... contributed just £11 billion in the same year and supported only 85,000 jobs." www.thetimes.com/culture/film...
All 2.4m of Britain’s creative workers are at risk — and we know why
A new report into the impact of AI on the creative sector makes for apocalyptic reading. The government must act now

note the way both police and CPS are conciliatory about his radicalisation: "he was unhappy with" / "whatever his views on the ULEZ scheme"
This was a minor story on London news this morning - but suspect is a real cautionary (and alarming) tale of an older man getting radicalised online.
