The fact that the tree is as old as the United States should not be lost on anyone. What a metaphor.

Ahh, unlucky mate. Turns out trans healthcare is still the scientifically and morally correct thing to do. I assume you'll be apologising now? Not sure why you thought the last 5 years would be different to the nearly 100 before that but ok
Some prick from Twitter exactly 5 years ago saying "I do hope in five years when this has been consigned to the rubbish heap that your apology to the legions of mutilated 20somethings will be fulsome and abject, Katy. You're going to have a LOT of explaining to do."

Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

In calling on Teheran to wipe out Los Angeles and San Diego, Trump challenged long-standing norms of presidential comportment.

I’ve said this before, but it’s sort of insane that no British political party is willing to champion Games Workshop, one of the country’s most successful, British born and run companies, and would much rather simp for Palantir or OpenAI

"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.

It’s so funny to imagine what the UK could be like if it took seriously any of its cultural icons—that aren’t wizards, Shakespeare, or in possession of good fortune but in want of a wife. We could have Tyranid statues at Heathrow. Perhaps a grisly frieze depicting Servitor conversion at Gatwick.

I keep remembering that, by hobbit standards, Pippin is underage, so, as far as the Shire is concerned, Frodo basically kidnapped him and sent him to the Somme

An American guy on Facebook said he would invade the UK and "feed [us] to the Muslims*" because I questioned which cities had been burnt to the ground by the 2020 protests, but good to see they've got their priorities I guess *I'm absolutely certain cannibalism is haram, actually

Elite media editors have been caught doing this far too often, especially with featured (and coddled) "undecided voters" They keep doing it because not only are there no consequences, they're often failed upwards (by the same mediocre legacy old men who push their "meritocracy" narrative)

I keep saying this, but if they had the capability to do this, they also had the capability to track the boat, have a federal search warrant ready, be at the scene when it lands, search the boat, and try the people in a court of law for drug trafficking. The fact that they didn’t tells you a lot.

The Inferno, c.1410, by Giovanni da Modena. Lots of people being tormented by demons in a rocky landscape, and in the middle a blue-black hairy ape like devil with a (sort of) lion’s head, devouring a man. At Satan’s groin, he has another leonine face, which a man is emerging from, upside down Close-up of the man being shat-vomited out of Satan’s mouth-arse
