Lol, saw that headline and thought the exact same thing.

Always good to hear from renowned national security expert Gaby Hinsliff!

Lol I read that article: every paragraph was dishonesty and weasel words.

I had a Claude subscription for a bit but ended up cancelling it because I just couldn't think of much to do with it. I use Copilot at work to troubleshoot code but beyond that... *shrugs*

I notice, without surprise, that Hutton feels no need to inform his readers of this conflict of interest in the article.

"Noise insulation would betray my vision of a public building where everybody has to hear everybody else's poops." - the architect, probably.

Has she just re-used a previous article and copied and replaced references to Keir Starmer with Andy Burnham?

It's the contrast between the ferocious rhetoric and the utter lack of anything resembling national mobilisation that gets me. Is it all just talk, or are they so blinkered by ideology that they genuinely think that you can make the country war-ready without actually doing anything?

I feel like the vampire psychopaths had no real need to be in the novel, except that the author thought they were a great idea and wanted to jam them in there somehow.

I saw a followup tweet to this that was: And then there's another skeleton on the other side of the building holding a note that says "tee hee! I'm totally going to turn Jim into a skeleton!"

He's my most loathed Guardian commentator. Yes, even worse than Rafael fucking Behr.

He should have grown that beard a looooong time ago imo.

If I were lucky enough to be earning a living as some talking head on panel shows and the news etc, I'd be very aware indeed of what happened to Gary Lineker when he spoke out and what the consequences would be for my own comfortable lifestyle if I did the same.

You know a government is legitimate when it needs to employ Saudi and UAE mercenaries in order to fight against its own people.

It's usually a free advert for the book/ website/ online course that they're invariably promoting.

I'd like to see the British citizens who've travelled to Israel to serve with the IDF and commit war crimes be brought to justice.

hawkwindrule.bsky.social @hawkwindrule.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

I have an idea for a Guardian opinion piece! It's going to be about how Andy Burnham shouldn't flinch from making tough decisions

Call me pedantic if you will, but should a column about the calamitous state of French politics not pay slightly more attention to the president who has been in power for ten years, and what he did, than just observing he’s leaving? Rather than just treating the public as angry imbeciles, I mean

The race to succeed Emmanuel Macron is looming, but rarely has the mood been so gloomy or the lure of extremist solutions so alarming, says Paul Taylor, of the European Policy Centre

yeah sure whatever, let lara croft cook potato stew on her phone for 2m0s of damage resistance who gives a shit anymore

a screenshot from the upcoming remake of Tomb Raider 1. lara croft is looking at her phone in the middle of an ancient ruin, and it's showing her a generic crafting menu, and a png of saucepan of stew that apparently her phone lets her cook for "Damage resistance" if she has 6 potatoes

I was woken up at 4 by a fox banging around in the neighbours backyard, trying to get at something. It went: CLONK/rattle, CLONK/rattle, CLONK.

Apparently, he's very keen on being NATO's Secretary General, don't know if that position is about to conveniently open up for him, tho?

I also think that British people move around far less than you'd think. Families tend to stick around the same area, so regional accents persist.

I've found AI useful in my job but not transformative? Certainly not trillions of dollars worth of transformative.

I saw this story at 6:30am and immediately knew that it was the stupidest headline I was going to see today.

These people are in their jobs in the 1st place because they're extremely good at not understanding stuff (or pretending not to understand it, who knows) and passing that on to the public.

Real talk: there's a surprising number of very famous paintings that are purchased as investments and then stuck away in secure storage facilities to accumulate value. Apparently there's all sorts of clever tax exemptions you can play with them.

Read 'Lost Girl' by Adam Nevill, a horror novel set in a near-future England ravaged by global warming and social collapse. It gets more plausible every year.

Peaked with GTA vice city imo: just enough plot to string the murder sprees together and no distracting mechanics. Also, the soundtrack was GOAT.

Boo that the cowards at the Guardian didn't allow comments on the article!

Read the whole article and yep, it really is disgraceful. There's no way whatsoever any of that was written in good faith. Despise that sort of dishonesty.
