It’s great that we make major decisions on a couple guys looking at the tea leaves and guessing where the economy might be in 5 years time based on what’s happened this week.
The UK government ditched plans to raise income tax rates after an improved fiscal forecast from the Office for Budget Responsibility, according to people familiar with the matter.

Every office has an executive tier whose emails are like:

and a worker tier whose emails are like:

Dear Jim,
First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…
Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

While you can explain to people at length the problems and ethical issues behind the technology, this is ultimately so much more powerful. Normal people hate this shit, and ultimately, even if they somehow solved all the problems, it’s still fucked.

Remain forever hopeful of a guest appearance on the 40K Badcast @brothersrm.bsky.social
most of the last decade of my career was a frantic effort to warn as many people as possible about the dangers i saw coming in the near future

now that all the stuff i saw coming is here, i dunno what to do other than maybe start a Warhammer 40k podcast

So speeding in the pit lane, full of people, a less serious crime than cutting one specific bit of grass. Cool, totally makes sense…

All of these tech bro losers imagine themselves as tolkien elves but they are actually all servants of morgoth
A US tech bro corp in the US has decided the night sky should go away. They've made that decision for everyone on Earth.

Naturally they've named the first searing orbital array (many times brighter than the moon) after Eärendil, the light bearer, from Tolkien's work

Got a message from a company I’ve bought beard stuff from before that their new comb is coming out, so I thought I’d have a look and damn, if this isn’t the dumbest looking thing I’ve ever seen.

Well that was stressful…

This. Until recently the rich and powerful could imagine they were beloved, and exposure to the contrary rotted their brains and radicalised them via the only folk that kept on cheering.
In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.
If this is what it took for you to be pushed into fascism you were probably already there

Stand by my view Clarke should have left after the Euros. Utterly miserable stuff to watch and it’ll never get any better.

In my head, this should all be Wraithbone, and that should clearly be bone coloured, not black? So here we are.

Ignore the gloss coating, just protecting it before I need to add markings / decals!
