A reminder that it was *checks notes* two days ago that they were telling us we couldn't possibly change Prime Minister because it would spook the bond markets

“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

I do think yesterday’s results reinforced the dynamic that while much of the American leadership class is chickenshit, most of the electorate is not

4 panel comic Panel 1: Elon Musk speaks directly to the reader using the lying mouth on his dishonest face Musk: People in the uk live like hobbits, y’know? Panel 2: Musk continues to talk complete garbage and says: Like, they literally live like characters in a fantasy book Panel 3: Musk stretches and yawns like a weird cat. Panel 4: Musk curls up fast asleep on a giant hoard of gold and riches, mirroring Smaug at the end on the hobbit.

A new class action lawsuit against Spotify alleges the company has “turned a blind eye” to “mass-scale fraudulent streaming” on its platform and that one musician in particular has been the beneficiary of “billions” of fake streams: Drake.

Go fuck yourself
Post Brianna Wu O Subscribe Trans sisters. I'm pretty sure I was wrong. I an somy. I genuinely thought that as a trans woman, if ceded some points with the gender critical crowd we could have a healthier conversation and arrive at better public policy. The problem is, they are getting crazier and more extreme. If you admit "trans women don't belong in women's sports" they agree, but call you a man the whole time. If you admit, "I understand I am a biological man, but this is how I want to live my life and talking about me like this is degrading" they scream about free speech. If you admit that hurtful language is part of free speech but you don't have to associate with people that degrade you, they act like the victim and call you a man and then say you should be thrown in an insane asylum. It's like this on everything. They are incapable of looking for a middle ground on bathrooms. They want maximalist policies on everything. They'd throw a fully transitioned, fully passing trans woman in male prison genpop and laugh as she got aids from being raped. I want a middle ground on so many of these polices. BUT THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IS THEY DO NOT. They enjoy degrading us, it's fun for them. So, sisters. I genuinely don't know what to do. I think many of our most extreme ideas are bad. But theirs are worse. So if I have to pick, I choose us. I wish there were a political vehicle for compromise and medical safeguarding. But that just simply does not exist. Post Brianna Wu Subscribe @BriannaWu 2/ I consider my business settled with all trans sisters. If anyone wants to reset things, unblock and move forward, I am happy to do that. 7:16 • 01 Nov 25 • 5,969 Views

The Jewish right discovering in real time that the Trumpist right, and the open bigotries it has unleashed upon the US body politic, is not in fact going to spare Jews, is quite a trip.
Tweet from John Podhoretz reading: "My mother was a Heritage board member for 40 years. You have befouled her, you rancid wretch of an amoeba." quoting Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, tweeting: "There has been speculation that @Heritage is distancing itself from @TuckerCarlson over the past 24 hours. I want to put that to rest right now—here are my thoughts:"

I don't think this requires further comment from me.

the two ways to tweet
Kim Kardashian tweets: "Up early today in NYC. About to do Good Morning America soon. What's everyone up to?" I tweet: "n the coming days, twitter will be introducing a new algorithm. when you see my tweets, pls like, comment, and subscribe. not bc you like my tweets but bc i easily get under people's skin. this will spread my tweets further, thus annoying your ideological enemies" Attached is a screenshot of some of my replies. They read: "Loser." "*Visibility limited: this Post may violate X's rules against Hateful Conduct" "Just shut up you insufferable little Asian f*g" "This is the work of a lunatic grasping for straws." the other replies are just a string of more slurs.

Ok, I’m ever so slightly freaked out here, but the Telegraph have actually done the best job of covering this. I’m not sure what to make of that! 🤷🏼‍♀️

The details they cover are even worse…

CNN is reporting that @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social referred to a voter he was meeting as “my man” at a campaign event today, even though the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution has made it illegal to own human beings since 1865 and remains the law in states including New York

It's extremely funny that her mind went to Dan Brown, a man whose research abilities for his novels can often reveal a deep lack of curiosity on his part. I always think about his protagonist who was an expert on East Asian languages but couldn't instantly recognise a language by its syllabary.

Lmao what (from today's Breaker newsletter)
(Exclusive.) Bari Weiss this week clocks up four weeks on the job as chief booker (sorry, editor-in-chief) of CBS News. Breaker hears that she has unimpressed staffers with a series of bold ideas in the 9 am call. Last week, following the jewel heist at The Louvre, Weiss suggested they interview author Dan Brown. Staffers questioned what expertise in the matter Brown would provide CBS News viewers? Brown is well known as the bestselling author of the 2003 mystery novel, The Da Vinci Code, about a murder at The Louvre. On Tuesday’s 9 am call, Weiss suggested a story about how people who are scared of climate change aren’t having children. “She is showing her worst self,” one CBS News journalist told Breaker. “People are running to avoid her.”

one thing thats kinda crazy to get your head around is not that the musk and thiel masters of the universe are ungrateful for the vast public infrastructure, public funding of research, and robust systems of laws and rules that made their wealth possible. it's that theyre too dumb to understand it

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

This remains the funniest way to hear about an internet outage, though.
Denise C. @SpudBenBean · Follow A woman who rang ABC Sydney radio said she found out about the Optus outage from her cat. The cat has an automatic wi-fi feeder (connected to Optus) & when breakfast wasn't delivered at 6:10 am, the cat went to the bedroom to lodge a complaint with management.
