AI music is obviously a crime against the human soul, but algorithmic streaming has already ruined English-language music to a substantial degree. It pushes everything toward the lowest common denominator, and detaches music from wider culture. Most young people barely care about music now.

It’s going to take more than planting a few trees to buy off Green Party supporters. Most of us want a fundamental break with neoliberalism, which in England only the Green Party is offering.

This isn’t that new is it? We had compulsory Christianity at my gloomy state primary school. You could probably have got out of it if you had a different religion but atheism wasn’t an option at all. “You can decide to abandon God when you’re older!”

Quick clarification because i’ve seen discourse containing vocab errors. Dogging: involves cars. Straight people do this type. Cruising: the gay kind. Cruising ground: the location. Often wooded. Cottaging: crusing in toilets. Named because they often looked like little cottages in parks.

Maybe, people are sick of those purporting to be intellectuals, because they’re often full of shit and more interested in looking clever than in solving problems? Like with James’s false equivalence in the intro (“parties of both left and right”). podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

I can't stand the "9 times cheaper" type formulation people have started to say. "A ninth of the price" is a million times clearer.

The point of an architecture degree is to supplement the meager incomes from the tutors' practices with a bit of teaching work. When there are 2600 graduates applying for 9 jobs, it's not the students who are benefiting. www.architectsjournal.co.uk/news/opinion...

Meet Juliet Brown. She cancelled hundreds of evidence-based gender-affirming surgeries across all of Wales three weeks ago. Brown isn't a doctor. Or any sort of clinician. She's a businessperson, formerly a director of the service commissioning Tavistock.

Young people, e.g. in their 30s, don’t listen to the radio at all, do they? It never comes up when people talk about the BBC, which they view as just another TV streaming service.

Samuel Leeds is a notorious 'property education' grifter, charging people tens of thousands for scammy courses in how to get rich from property. If he was as rich as he claims I doubt he'd bother, and the Metro are just helping his sales funnel by spreading around his claims.

It really isn’t surprising that people vote for the AfD to kick Muslims out of Germany, when the whole of the German mainstream pushes the idea that Muslims are dangerous anti-German Untermenchen.

We can talk about all the damage AI is doing to society, but what isn't being talked about enough is that it's making it pointless to dream of any kind of career that's worthwhile. In this sense it's making human life meaningless, and it's this despair that makes people—and societies—self-destruct.

Ed Sheeran is an indicator species of an unhealthy musical ecosystem. Like when uplands get grazed into molina grass deserts. There’s only a few massive artists nowadays and they hang around far too long. They need outcompeting. Maybe even predation.

Most countries teach their children the broad brush of their history. Britain does not, in case it reveals that its ruling class (the foundation of which was the Normans), might not always have acted 100% honorably.
