Reminder that you do not have to "hand it" to Rees-Mogg, given his immediate response was "well we'd be speaking german" as opposed to "because all of the jews in the country would have been murdered".

"In ten years our AI might be powerful enough to wipe out humanity" Okay but can it do the dishes though? Can you make AI that will actually do mundane boring tasks like dishes or laundry? If your bots are that smart and powerful then why can't they do anything useful?

“The flow of time is always cruel…” The Hero’s Shade from Twilight Princess being Link from Ocarina of Time is one of my favorite bits of Zelda lore. The new Kokiri tunic from the remake is so much fun to draw 💚

100%. For those unfamiliar, Van Halen had a line in their rider that essentially said “no brown M&Ms.” It was a way to see if the promoter had actually read the contract. They had a shitload of gear to tour with, so if they’re skipping one thing, it’s guaranteed they’re skipping something essential.

Talking to a friend today who'd never interacted with Star Trek media. My husband mentioned I liked shipping characters. When asked about it further, I just said "so there's this autistic doctor and his fascist lizard boyfriend" and my friend's immediate response was "no wait I have heard of this".

This statue in York Minster is so done with everything

A white marble statue of a bishop, lying down on his side, the side of his face leaning into his left hand, with a book in his right hand. He has an expression of boredom. To his left is a grimacing cherub statue.

Labour's problem right now is treating the trans rights debate as "Trans people wanting Dignity and Respect™ vs rightfully concerned women" when it's more like, "Trans people wanting to live in peace in public vs a small army of Captain Ahabs who've decided trans people are their white whale"

The insistence that there’s some kind of Universal Female Experience™️ equally afforded to every woman is ridiculous, because even in the implied upper-middle class white cis female baseline, there are huge variations based on religious background, disability, or overall gender conformity.
