Instagram's Adam Mosseri: If you don't like Al, 'then you shouldn't have it in your feed'

Blink twice if Robbie Gibb is behind you Chris.

A BBC text post from Chris Mason:

That's how Nigel Farage is trying to seize the
initiative and the momentum, if you like, of
having his back against the wall with all of
the revelations relating to his finances.

On top of that, you could hear the anger -
and it is authentic anger - about what he sees
as the unreasonable encroachment on his
family as a result of the swirl of media
attention.

We were several steps from it, but a by-
election was already being talked about at
Westminster as one potential outcome of the
investigation under way by the parliamentary
standards commissioner into Farage's £5m
gift.

One scenario down the track after the
investigation's findings were released could
have been a recall petition and potentially a
by-election.

We've seen that in the past where MPs find
themselves in that situation against their will.

Here is Nigel Farage seizing the moment and
the initiative and saying that he'll press ahead
with that by-election and framing it, as he so
often does, as a tussle between the people
and elements of the establishment.

Farage will be found in breach of standards and suspended for one day short of the threshold for a recall petition.

Chudjak urges you to consult the graph, which quite clearly shows that as time goes on the number of things that happen remains zero.

This is the second Palantir puff piece the Times have put out this week, why are they so horny for peter thiel suddenly

An excerpt from a Times article on Facebook:

"No-one should be judged by who their parents or
grandparents are," Zack Polanski, the Green Party leader
pronounced at a recent campaign event - before proceeding
to do just that.
"But this is a man who is the grandson of Oswald Mosley and
still insists on wearing a black shirt every single time he is on
TV."
The subject of Polanski's vitriol was Louis Mosley who, by dint
of genealogy, is the grandson of the 1930s British fascist
leader.
And his "crime"? Running the UK arm of one of the world's
most successful yet controversial technology companies,
which has a £300 million contract to bring NHS IT systems
into the 21st century”

Always respected the very real threat of Atletico. Just can’t rule them out.

A meme going over the experience of watching a Liverpool football match.

The first few minutes says “oh boy am i excited to watch my favourite team play”

The feeling during most of the match is “im going to kill myself”

Finally, our hero tops it off with a single, unbreakable “nice we won”

late-stage brain melt caused by spending all day scrolling through TradWestChad69’s twitter timeline www.wsj.com/politics/elon-musk-chil…

An excerpt from the linked WSJ article:

While Musk was in Pennsylvania canvassing for Trump before the election, Musk sent a series of texts about the urgency of winning the state to St. Clair. "In all of history, there has never been a competitive army composed of women. Not even once," he wrote. "Men are made for war. Real men, anyway." He followed up with: "I am in full war mode. Going to the front lines today. Must win PA."

behold, the most Linkedin one-two of post and comment your eyes will ever be subjected to:

A Linkedin post that says:

“My newsfeed is split into two groups: People who demand employers let
employees work from home w/ more benefits and pay.

- AND -

People competing with the 5.4M Indian engineers who are working 90 hours per week for 1/10 the pay of US workers.

One of these groups is entitled.”

A reply to the same Linkedin post that says:

“Plot twist: The third group is quietly building Al to replace both sides”
