Ranting about politics, music, books, random things generally. Support the Arsenal, and the All Blacks (as a kiwi in London nearly 30 years). If you voted for Brexit or Reform it's probably not for you, likewise the Tories. Rock music, industrial, blues...
What's been going on over here? Lots of people in the other place claiming their posts are automatically blocked as "violation" with no information on what it is or why

ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe.
That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US.
This is the second verified incident I've heard about.
We were here 1st.

I remember when advocating for mercy and compassion was considered Christian.
Now it's considered radical ideology.

Difference between UK and other countries? In other countries houses are places for living, in UK houses are an asset class. And this isnt a new thing. Our legal system has been propping this thing up for 1000 years, whether leasehold (Duke of Westminster) or Crown land (Royals).

There is a global nursing shortage. The NHS has approx 50,000 nursing vacancies.
If you increase private sector contracts, they will poach NHS staff further weakening the NHS.
We need to chose carefully where to invest. And it should be in the NHS.

Yep! He's an idiot
There are a lot of things that annoy me about that fascist idiot, but one of the little ones is that he keeps saying that “grok” comes from Hitchhiker’s Guide.
It comes from Stranger in a Strange Land, and has nothing to do with AI.
And the AI robots in Hitchhiker’s Guide? EVERYONE HATES THEM!

#Nosferatu forgot to mention I saw this New Years Day. Stunning cinematography, creepy story, some serious wtf moments. Others have said audience laughing at certain scenes, didn't happen in the cinema I was in - because we're grown ups!

Twitter is finally sinking, Elon Musk is creating a list of the couple of hundred accounts he finds acceptable, and if you're not on it, your posts are not interesting.
So I guess we will all be leaving.

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Still dragging myself of the place where the idiot in charge has gone full fascist. It's not very edifying. You have to wonder how someone as small minded and drug addled got so rich. Daddy's money and a lot of dodgy deals I expect.
