The French police are so militarized they blew up a 15-yr-old’s hand and took the eye of another one. Why are grenades being used to quell student protestors who are unarmed? Now the labour unions are stepping in to protect the students

I think cash literary prizes should be means tested. I don't think the famous and unstraitened—or even the non-famous and unstraitened, for that matter—should be given big chunks of money for writing poetry

I don't trust Polanski or the Greens as far as I can throw them, but I do think the growing wave of supporters are choosing them over Labour on decent principles and the "international ostracism" is a sign they're doing something right here

Weird feeling that a lot of this newly-minted "Englishness" is actually a US import- we're suddenly adopting the kind of insecure bloodnsoil identitarianism you hear from Americans (insistent that they're Irish/Scottish etc.) that would've felt absurd here 20 years ago

This is very good. “Over 2.2 million cancer deaths can be attributed to Costco; that’s more than 20% of all cancer deaths between 2000 and 2018.”
Ridiculous things you can “prove” caused cancer mortality

Everything causes cancer. Sounds cliché; maybe those California warning tags were right all along. But thanks to the methodology created by Alwadi et al., we can now prove that anything and everything causes cancer. Oh, sorry, that is too strong of an assertion. To use the authors’ words, since they have claimed their papers don’t prove causality, we can create an association between any physical landmark and cancer and, from that association, figure out how much cancer is attributable to that thing. Which is totally not the same as saying “that thing causes cancer.”

For instance, living near a private four-year university is associated with a 15-fold increase in cancer mortality when compared

It's good, in theory, that everyone's talking out loud about menopause now and barriers are disappearing and shame is dissolving etc but also not very inclusive of those whose coping method is to pretend things won't happen until they do, so, can everyone shut up, pls thx

What everyone needs to give up is the idea that we can ever tell, in a yes or no way, whether AI has been used to write an article. There are more ways to use them than generate text and copy-paste, and we'll never, ever be able to tell if someone's used one unless they make it very obvious

Choosing to arrest activists in their 70s-90s, sitting peacefully with signs, posing no possible threat to anyone, when they're surrounded and far outnumbered by 20-30-something activists is clear, brutal signalling.

In a previous life, when I did secretarial work, it was common for hiring managers to reject applicants for part-time roles who didn't have children, and they'd openly tell you this. It was considered the only legitimate reason to want part-time work. Nobody cared how well you could do the job.
