I thought “The police are Hamas” was outstandingly idiotic, insulting horseshit but if they also manage “We believe Donald Trump - whose threats to annex Greenland we will not tolerate - is bombing Iran out of humanitarian concern” in the same day, this will be an all-timer for British politics.

I am enjoying all these Tories defecting to Reform and saying "omg look at what the previous governments have done to the country so terrible". Genuinely a constant rib-tickler.

Being a fascist is extreme and deeply culpable stuff! Nazi beliefs are not silly quirks, and it’s not like these people are ever shy when it comes to hurling thunderous accusations and denunciations at people who call them shitheads on X The Everything App.

You have to be able to call a thing what it is if you’re criticizing it.

My loot box coverage would’ve had so many teeth removed if I couldn’t talk about gambling mechanics.

YT either knows this and is covering for companies, or it’s run by the biggest dumbasses on Earth. Or, y’know, both.

So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

Is it usual to write articles using "Mom! Dad! Bart's DEAD!" sentence structure?

I’d like to think it’s pretty obvious what’s been going on when the likes of this guy and Lineker are getting hounded out, and absolutely roaring spite-crazed headbangers like Sharon Davies are not only welcome but are being given non-jobs for life in the legislature

A prime example of how the far right can never be appeased. Give them whatever they demand and they’ll bank it, then use it as a new base camp to strike out for more and worse.

So at this point, I am of the belief that there is a conservative group in the background emailing companies and trying to get them to ban the game.

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."

Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

The additional context is that Valve is still killing a beloved games studio, still tried to weasel out of making a press statement, still didn't allow a second review, and still did not communicate with the developer beyond vague references to their terms.

I can't wait to see all of my mutuals that play Fortnite regularly to not touch the game for the entirety of the season in solidarity of all of their trans homies! It's so nice knowing so many people that aren't just allies when it's convenient for them! 🙂💖

Hint. Fucking. Hint.

Fixed it for you. Idiots! If the exclusion is based on appearance then it will certainly impact cis folks as well as trans folks.

thing about autism is if you work really hard for many years, you can learn through trial-and-error how to navigate social situations and interpersonal connections SO effectively that people don't really believe you're autistic anymore and resent you for not being perfect at nonverbal communication

the entirety of the british press talked themselves into believing this woman is trans based almost entirely on JK Rowling's judgement of the athlete's appearance.
Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)
