This isn't the *worst* story and is relatively weak sauce compared to say the Mandelson allegations but I think the slow but sure distance that most atheist organisations have created between themselves and Dawkins is turning out to be wise.
Epstein is taking down some of the most well-known atheists one by one.

I appreciate to a great extent this is easy for me to say but...what are the Children's hospital supposed to do? They can't move the hospital.
The answer is probably better park and ride services but I don't think "buy the Q-Park multistorey" is a realistic option.

Just saw a med ed thing about normal saline and apparently "it is a fluid used by the devil and in hyponatraemia" is not the correct answer.

The whole 'Al Carns was in the army thing' is kind of hilarious. Similar vibe to when you hear that a politician is a doctor.
Like, being a doctor doesn't automatically make you smart as all healthcare professionals, many patients and crucially doctors will tell you.

A man killed his own daughter over an argument about Trump.
She asked: “How would you feel if I had been sexually assaulted?”
Her father replied that he had two other daughters so it would not upset him that much
Then he shot her.
There’s something deeply wrong with MAGA.

Having recently come off resident night shifts, with nights every other week for the past 2½ years, I am realising how drained I was.
I mean, I knew I felt shattered, and that it was unsustainable, but it is taking me longer to recover and recalibrate than I thought it would.

No-one seems to have noticed, but many of the core developments in the Mandelson/Epstein story these last few days have been broken on this website. @pickardje.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social are both posting each breaking development on BlueSky, not X.

Well after seeing an AI ad about 8 year old getting melted gold poured on her head by her sister, I same the same shitty AI-gen 8 year old with AI-gen voiceover in an ad for a story about her surviving being thrown to piranhas by her father.
Can't wait to read some AI books!

I find it interesting that the lesson many liberal/progressive friends learn from this is "people are stupid, all is lost" rather than "effective campagining must go further than shouting facts at people".
How in the addicted to streaming movies did I miss this film when it was first released? What a painfully funny look at where we are in this very moment. (Netflix)

Although I'm under no illusion that Duolingo scores correlate perfectly with CEFR (this is ostensibly lower end of A2), I'm impressed with my ability to get this far on grammar, context, yet astonishingly little vocab having not studied German since my AS-Level in 2003.

There's a lot of responses with "replaced by who?".
Rayner, Streeting, Miliband, even Dan Jarvis *ahem* Al Carns and his leaderly chin are at this point better options.
Sure, they *may* fail, maybe even probably fail but that's still better than the near-certainty of Starmer continuing to fail.

First stage of denial: shoot the messenger.
There's a firing squad on Bluesky, aiming at anyone stating the blinking obvious: that Starmer needs to go ASAP if Labour is to have any chance of recovery before 2029.
