Trump is desperate to stop the AI bubble from bursting as it is all that is holding up the US economy. He wants to keep it going long enough to be the next guy's problem.

Gobsmacked by the elite levels of not knowing ball in the Senate today, thinking an NBA team is called the Hawkeyes then, refusing to Google it, then accusing a guy of treason because you didn’t know the Iowa Lady Hawkeyes aren’t in the NBA. Somehow I don’t trust these people to Save Girls Sports.

I think we underrate that JCO came up in 20th century New York literary circles where everyone said five most devastating insults before breakfast and as one of the last one standing, her competition is guys who get sad if their chatbot isn't sufficiently nice to them.

Genuinely surprised at the level of support amongst 55-64 given that they are the group that is going to take a real hit over the time they draw their pensions whilst in most cases benefiting much less from the proposed future care changes (their parents if alive are already in their eighties).

MAGA types saying that if Jack Smith has such great evidence that Trump committed treason then he should present it - as if Trump's legal team and corrupted judges hadn't spent three years successfully making sure that he couldn't.

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”.

The biggest problem with 'The Wargame' is that although Michael Gove as PM is quite funny it would be so much funnier with bonkers Liz Truss as PM- she'd be demanding that we nuke Belgium or assassinating the President of Bulgaria.

Cynically I have always assumed that the Triple lock would go in the next parliament because otherwise those born in 1964 and 1965 (like me) would benefit from it and there are just too damn many of us.

The fact there are now four or five perfectly plausible theories about the presence of three vans at 1.30pm near Fairford is a reminder of just how much crime there is in the boonies.

A cash-strapped rural police force struggles to deal with Red Diesel gangs. Until its chief inspector realises can get the Met Police to deal with the problem... ...if he pretends they're Iranian. A new six part comedy starring Toby Jones.

Would be pretty funny if the three vans at Fairford were actually fly tipping. (Notoriously hard to catch in the act).

Before speculating that any incident involves asylum seekers the person speculating should be forced to list all the times they have speculated it was asylum seekers and then been proved wrong.

One of my most heretical opinions is that the supposed 'short war illusion' in 1914 was in some respects right- it was the shortest of the multiple 'world wars' and it ended with massive regime failure and revolutions.

One thing this list gets right is 'Reservation Dogs.' Possibly the only comedy on here that can stand alongside the missing 'Derry Girls' or 'What we do in the shadows'.

'Austrian Painter' is according to its owner named after Gustav Klimt. Also (and I am not making this up) the horse's sister is named 'New Order' - after his favourite band. (I am guessing he might have another horse named 'Storm Trooper' which is just a coincidental Star Wars reference).

It is remarkable because Trump has been insanely lucky so far in certain respects: 1. Literally zero hurricanes this season for a weakened FEMA to bodge. 2. No major new respiratory virus outbreak for RFK jr to screw up. 3. The very obvious stock market bubble is yet to burst.

Unbelievable TIME interview with Myanmar‘s dictator Min Aung Hlaing in which they say his troops “stand accused” of war crimes & that he “denies wrongdoing.” they’re not accused of doing it, they have filmed themselves doing it, there’s no doubt that they did it.

The idea that Trump was playing 5 D chess to get concessions on Greenland which posits that Trump aimed for 'substance' over 'appearance' fails on two counts- 1/ The substantial gain isn't really all that much. 2/ Everything we know about Trump.
