Headline from The Telegraph, which says:
Bristol is the most annoying city in Britain 
The standfirst says: Being there feels like sharing a flat with somebody who explains why your favourite brand of toothpaste is perpetuating colonialism

Turns out making Labour into a party that has no clear ideology beyond "winning elections" and "thrashing about wildly in response to opinion polls" means that few people passionately vote for them and fewer still know what Labour currently stands for.

1. Yes, I found this on Reddit. 2. Yes, commenters were saying everyone should press Red due to game theory, then no-one would die 3. Yes, they said that anyone who presses Blue deserves to die for being stupid and virtue signalling. 4. Why? Refer to point 1.

"progressives are silent on Iran" well excuse me for not jumping for joy that your idealised replacement for the unelected Ayatollahs is to replace them with the son of the unelected Shahs. Are we supposed to cheer for SAVAK succeeding the IRGC too?

Young British people in Great Britain increasingly sympathising with the IRA and Irish Republicanism is surely linked to A: the fall-off in attacks post-GFA and most recently B: the ever-mounting evidence of how insufferable all the racist "British" loyalists in Northern Ireland are to live with

This is the problem with X in a nutshell. You fundamentally can't trust the product, because the owner will trash it's functioning in an effort to make the world match his batshit views. It's as if Henry Ford was not just antisemitic, but stitched anti-semitic propaganda into every Model T.

Kurt Vonnegut man
Kurt Vonnegut tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope:
"Oh, she says, well, you're not a poor man.
You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet?
And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope.
I meet a lot of people. And see some great looking babies. And a fire engine goes by.
And I give them the thumbs up. And I'll ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is — we're here on Earth to fart around
And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around.
And it's like we're not supposed to dance at all anymore."

The decision to use an image of a Gaza protest as the representative image of a British ‘civil war’ when there were literal race riots and proto-pogroms in the streets less than a year ago is one of those editorial choices that says far more than the article itself possibly could.

Shows like Adolescence and Mr Bates vs The Post Office have influenced politics in the UK which great because it shows the value of art. But why don't our government know/care about these problems already? Do they have to be entertained before they give a shit?

i see wes streeting has reached Phase Two.
The meme by amii.illustrates where, in the first panel, a cartoon man says “stop immigration so we can take care of our own”, and in the second panel a child says “I’m starving” and the man replies “fuck off”, except I’ve changed “immigration” to “gender affirming care”, “our own” to “neurodivergents”, and “I’m starving” to “I’m neurodivergent”.

Bristol's premier dance music community radio station SWU.fm faces being taken off the air, again. I understand abiding by Ofcom's rules, but losing emails isn't that out of the realm of possibility for a small station that occasionally drops broadcasting because someone flicked the wrong switch ✏️
