Fontaines DC every time.
There's every reason I should like them but I just can't get into them, and I've tried. Have blocked my Spotify from ever suggesting them again.

In Chicago, in 21 months, the AI-powered gunshot detection technology ShotSpotter generated more than 40,000 “dead-end police deployments”
89% of ShotSpotter deployments resulted in no gun-related crime
But the tool did cause the fatal police shooting of 13-year-old Adam Toledo.

Zuckerberg has gone completely, gleefully mask-off in the last few days. He's not just bending the knee; you can tell he's genuinely wanted to do this for ages.

I’ve a lot of respect for the off license near my flat, who’ve tackled Dry January head on with a ragged cardboard sign which simply reads BOOZE JANUARY.

I've done London-Berlin by train a few times - and it's really doable.
This actually won't save you time but one less change has to be welcome

It’s over 1,000km from Berlin to Paris
There’s now a direct daytime train between them, that takes 8 hours and costs just €59. Leave at 10am, arrive 6pm.
And… it’s just 1% the carbon emissions of the equivalent flight

This is more than a little worrying.
🚨Towns in France roasted in “completely extreme” overnight temp of 26.9C (80.42F).
“It’s very exceptional – even for summer, let alone late November,”.
Scientists described the night-time heat as “staggering” and “phenomenal” so late in the year. #climate www.theguardian.com/world/2024/n...

You absolutely have to love the Onion’s dedication to the bit
Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

Imagine thinking that Harris's campaign was about "pronouns and purity." You would have to have ignored every single ad, speech, rally, etc.
Too much of our pundit class just openly hates trans and non-binary people.
