Woke up with this stupid pun in my head which will only make sense to very online Brits of a certain age

I've been wondering what the best/most cursed possible origin for that particular phrase would be and it just hit me tonight: "The flagship educational policy of the first George W. Bush administration, the "No Child Sinister Buttocks Act"...

I think of a filthy pun and then get a compulsion to turn it into a Baldur's Gear meme. IDK what's wrong with me.

Okay what? He's literally only got half of the series there - 27 out of 54 books - plus another 15 duplicates? THIS is the full series.

I think that not only should they rename Birmingham Airport in honour of Ozzy Osbourne, they should do it exactly in the style of Liverpool John Lennon Airport, as I've handily mocked up below. Perfect image to arrive to, as I'm sure you'd agree.

The Neil Gaiman Vulture article is a grim read and I have thoughts I'll put down later. For now, just noting how he casually dropped the below and then 3 months later it turned out that he'd told Katherine Kendall autism was to blame for him "not properly picking up her body language and cues".

Miscellaneous Trades in Southport, late 1860s, via Secret Sand Land on FB. It took me a depressingly long time to realise the despite the commas, the numbers were part of the street address, and thus my hometown did not in fact formerly feature a schoolboy bat-shit merchant.

UnitedHealthcare knowingly let an AI make decisions which would deny care that elderly patients had already paid for and were entitled to; taking their money and leaving them to die instead. They LITERALLY built Harold Shipman as software Fuck 'em www.theregister.com/2023/11/15/u...

Text quote from the Register dated Wed 15 Nov 2023: The complaint, brought by Clarkson Law Firm, alleges UnitedHealthcare unlawfully deployed an AI system with a 90 percent error rate that improperly overrode the recommendations of physicians regarding medically necessary post-acute care for the elderly, i.e. treatment following discharge from a hospital.

Did a democracy today. Had some inspiration while walking into the polls.

A photo taken from the inside of a polling station. The "Polling Station" sign is visible in reverse, as is graffiti declaring "ACAB" on the wall of a shop across the road.

A couple of sizeable Facebook groups I'm in have been hijacked recently by the same 4 accounts. They seem to have taken over ~30 such groups, most 100k-500k members, in the last week. Meta have done absolutely nothing to stop or revert this. Anyone know a tech journo who wants to investigate?
