From Politico. That motion is absolute fucking poison and by failing to stand up to it, the Greens have allowed that poison to seep into the party.

Very forceful statement by Terry Tao about AI and math. terrytao.wordpress.com/2026/09/11/a... Note, he is not claiming the models aren't real and powerful. He's talking about how that power should be used. This, I believe, is what all AI discussions should center.

Confusion on the overground as the driver 'can only apologise' that the standard of service 'really isn't good enough' from the heart and with feeling. I'm so used to prerecorded, or nothing, that I was surprisingly moved

Community theatre combined with Shakespeare is a beautiful thing. I get to play Sir Andrew Aguecheek in Streatham Common today, our last show, in perfect weather. It is silly, delightful, and has brought a bunch of people together as if nothing else matters in the world.

Our society has such lofty ambitions of collective endeavour. Mitigating climate change. Exploring space. Yet the truth is that a civilization that cannot refrain from noisily blowing leaves on a weekend morning is doomed to consume itself. There is no salvation without rest.

PSA for fellow morons who don't read what's in confirmation emails: the Garden Cinema in London doesn't do ads and the movie starts straight away, so you shouldn't breezily arrive 20 minutes after the stated time because you will have missed arguably too much of the movie to bother walking in

Luckily for England, to be up after midnight and to go to bed then, is early, so that to go to bed after midnight is to go to bed betimes.

Having failed to interest any papers in this story, I resorted to writing a letter to The Times, like in olden times. So when all that's left to watch is NASCAR racing sponsored by Cheetos, I can at least say I tried. #ITV #Sky #Comcast

RIP Tony Rayns, a friend of The Garden Cinema who introduced many films with encyclopedic factual knowledge, amusing anecdotes, and a friendly, generous style. Honoured to have filmed his introduction to The Family Game (1983) only a month ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSzD...

“Take Five” by Dave Brubeck Quartet was recorded 67 years ago today. Two years later it became a surprise hit and the biggest-selling jazz single ever.

During the heatwave, TFL is not running for you. It's running to transport vulnerable people home and emergency workers to work. If you work in marketing do everyone a favour and stay home.

If there's a red weather warning, and employers have a duty of care, I think that means 'different things have to happen or not happen' than usual! Your employer must still pay you! You should consider not travelling! BBC news just said 'wear suncream' - that is not adequate news!

I'm testing which AI is the best... with my life. After a hot flush trying macadamia nut oil, I used it to cook chicken wings. Google said: call 111, leave the door open, my life is at risk. Chat GPT said it was mild sensitivity. Claude said: enjoy the wings. Follow for updates!

Think my mind is changing on Palestine Action. It seemed common sense that it was direct action and not terrorism, but now it seems common sense, if it's a global movement publishing target lists that include members of the public, that it is.

1/3. I somehow missed news that Kore-eda’s series Asura is on Netflix - and has been lurking there for over a year. In case you've missed it too, wanted to shout out that it’s must-watch TV: predictably rich and quietly compelling, closest, perhaps, to my favourite of his films, Still Walking.
