We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

"By using AI, tasks like essays that used to take hours can be completed in minutes!" Sure, like how if I arrive at the gym and immediately go for a shower, my workout is done in record time. And if I throw my sandwiches straight in the bin, I can finish my lunch in under 10 seconds.

OTD in 1938 Nazi Germany started occupying the Sudetenland. The west tried to appease Hitler by giving him bits of someone else's country without asking the owners. It didnt work & led to a terrible war. Imagine it happening today....

It’s a mark of the corruption of our whole way of thinking about the world that trying to meet a planetary emergency is routinely described as “ideological”, while continuing to accelerate it is presented as “pragmatic” and “economic”.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Astounding story. Reform receives a *second* £36m donation from a crypto billionaire in 48 hours. Christopher Harborne- the £5m benefactor- has matched Ben Delo's money pound for pound. £72m in total. Approaching US politics sort of money. www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/202...

I don't really have any notable personal anecdotes to add to the 9/11 commemorations, but i'm glad I was old enough to have experienced a world filled with optimism and positivity during the years prior to that date, because I know i'll never experience that world again in my lifetime

I for one have had enough of people who can barely speak English, living on benefits, ignoring our laws and wearing weird clothes that cover up their faces. So it was disappointing to see a few hundred of them gathered in Dover today.

With all respect to the BBC, the reason this story "matters" is not about whether it distracts from Reform's conference. It "matters" because it is important our leaders are not conspiring to break the law.

And the biggest howler: Reform’s geniuses in Kent were apparently able to repaint a fence, trim the verge, plant grass seed (and get it to grow instantly), redo the pavement and repave the road all so quickly that the car in the top-right corner didn’t move an inch! Amazing!

Firefighters control are facing an impossible dilemma. With no fire engines available, it's been a case of picking and choosing which incidents they send firefighters to. Temporary army and aircraft support won't fix chronic underfunding. We need proper long-term investment.

Farage wanted this by-election to draw a line under the controversy. Instead, the stench of sleaze is sticking to him and Reform UK. Recent political history tells us that once a party gains that reputation, it can be extremely difficult to shake.

Crop yields down, our countryside scorched and over 2800 people are dead due to this summer's heatwaves. Meanwhile fossil fuel giants are raking in record profits. We must end this rampant profiteering, and cut fossil fuels from our energy mix as soon as possible.
