❌ Ban home fireworks
🎆 Permit licensed firework displays
🛩️Encourage silent fireworks/drone displays

I'll be accused of being another "if in doubt, ban it" merchant, and it would be a fair challenge. But home fireworks cause enough harm and suffering to humans and animals to warrant a ban.

Also: in its sinister torrent of fake empathy, ChatGPT predicted that poor guy’s last night on earth wouldn’t disappear - that he’d left something behind.

ChatGPT was right. What are we going to do with this knowledge?

Back in May, I wrote about why the question of whether we can trust AI was hopelessly naive. I also suggested that LLMs were a threat to established religion.

The homicidal chats this week would seem to bear this out.

My daughter didn’t even know what diphtheria is - and if I’m honest, nor did I.

The reason for that is vaccines. Without them, some of you reading this wouldn’t have made it to adulthood.

So why do people refuse them?

By what right would the Greens have to oppose a free and sovereign Ukraine wishing to join NATO?

"We back Ukrainian sovereignty ... up until they do something we don't agree with".
The Green Party condemns Russia’s invasion, backs Ukraine’s sovereignty, and urges peace talks. It opposes NATO expansion and supports replacing NATO with a cooperative, non-militarised European security framework 💚

@lizwebster.bsky.social the problem brexiteers face now is the "cliff edge" they claimed didn't exist on Feb 1st 2020 is actually so big they are only just beginning to hit the branches on the way down.

my money is on Food safety issues being the next big branch to hit them square in the face.
Warnings over the lack of brexit checks, i.e. checks on imports from EU, have been flagged up for quite a while now to the UKGOV.

A SPS deal would allow the UK to reduce those checks making them easier but they would still have a detrimental impact on the economy, food prices & inflation.

‘The world said I was dead - in so many ways I was’: Paul McCartney on the lost years after the Beatles
In 1969, as the band imploded, the singer was 27, depressed and drowning in a sea of legal and personal rows. He hadn’t died, as rumour had it, but he was struggling. He introduces an oral history of how his family’s escape to a remote Scottish farm helped him move on from John, George and Ringo

Premier Ford is the one who put out the ad,not Carney. Ford did it because tariffs are putting thousands of auto workers out of work.Trump is a man-baby & seized on the excuse to stop trade talks. Carney is doing a great job but diversifying and changing a whole economy doesn’t happen overnight.
