“Yippee ki-yay…”

We are excited to tell everyone that Westminster Council decided on May 1st that the Prince Charles Cinema would be included in the list of Assets of Community Value maintained by the Council under section 87 of the Localism Act 2011.

“is my calculator horny?“ our tech columnist asks. “i entered 5318008 into it and turned it upside down. what i saw surprised me”
“Can ChatGPT experience joy or suffering? Does Gemini deserve human rights?” our tech columnist asks. “Many A.I. experts I know would say no, not yet, not even close. But I was intrigued.”
Should We Start Taking the Welfare of A.I. Seriously?
As artificial intelligence systems become smarter, one A.I. company is trying to figure out what to do if they become conscious.

I hope people understand now that it’s unethical to support any new harry potter media. people tried to explain this when the hogwarts game came out and no one wanted to hear it. any money in joanne’s pocket funds anti-trans lobbying.

Waiting eagerly for The Pitt to come to the UK, so will have to catch up with the second half of Doctor Odyssey to make up for it

We've been sorting out my grandparents house and I've taken a load of old notes (lira, Peruvian money from c.70s, Chinese foreign exchange certificates) and also this - I can't work out where it is from so if anyone has any ideas please let me know

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

Sickening, evil, totally in line with everything in No Other Land. The final footage sees a settler shoot co-director Basel Adra's cousin point-blank in the stomach with a rifle. An Oscar can't stop hate crimes

Coming to the realisation that there are so many words that I mispronounce, mostly because I've only ever seen them written down on the internet and never pop up in my daily life. Two most recent examples:

- Telfar: Tefla
- Chick-fil-A: Chick-a-filla

My hot take on Ted Lasso returning is that the first series was good (and I watched it in the middle of lockdown sadness) and then the second series was actually unbearable. I never watched it again after that

A montage of Joshua Jackson calling half a cruise ship telling them they got syphilis while on there and giving them shots of penicillin while Carol Douglas' "Doctor's Orders" plays...... Doctor Odyssey is the greatest show ever

can someone who likes crocheting send me some links to kits that are suitable for beginners (but not the very basic ones) because it's my birthday soon and I want to be prepared.

I've made three scarves, and a wool and the gang wanderer bag - would love to start making some fun tops

It's a shame I'm not a stand up comedian because I thought of a really good joke yesterday and it would only really work in a stand up set but I will never do that

finally starting my substack with an unplanned, unedited and incomplete list of my favourite watches this year open.substack.com/pub/rosedymo...
An introduction, and a brief recap
I wanted my first post on here to be something more substantial - something clever, about language and cinema - but frankly, the fact that I'm actually writing anything at all is a small miracle.

My little brother is watching the Mr Beast show, and when I was saying about the Rolling Stones article about he was like "just because it's published, doesn't mean it's true" and that people will say bad things because they didn't get the money. When I said it was staff working on it
