I observe politicians and journalists from the top of the bookcase. I have no mercy on them. I am a cat.

The BBC 10 o’clock news says the right wing idea of ethnic minorities being given preferential treatment in criminal justice is likely to become a “growing fault line in our politics” WITHOUT POINTING OUT THAT IT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. What’s the point of the news if it doesn’t correct disinformation?

I think every politician who proposes to ban anything on the internet for teens should be required to propose, as an alternate, a free and accessible and all weather space for teens to hang out in their own hometown

A day after The Late Show ended, Colbert hosted an episode of public access program Only In Monroe, reviving his 11-year-old gag. How bad is CBS/Paramount taking it? They issued copyright complaints for a show they don't own. 🤣 CBS would hate it if you watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DlF...

Paramount is apparently trying to suppress copies of "Only in Monroe" from appearing on other social platforms by filing frivolous copyright notices, even though the show was produced by a public access TV channel and doesn't use their intellectual property...

I used to be able to get double breakfast by yowling piteously. They installed a whiteboard to put time of feeding. After a while they just wrote "He's lying" on it, and forgot about it. I am still very, ahem, floofy.

This is what you get with (a) the collapse of social media moderation, (b) the radicalisation of conservative media and (c) politicians acting as if it's much worse to be called racist than to be racist. All the elite cues are dismantling the taboo and telling people it's OK

There is no serious trade expert who thinks the UK's deal with the US is definitively better than that of the EU. There are lots of generalist commentators using them for their own stale talking points. The UK did OK. So did the EU. Neither were great.

As predicted, the front pages of BBC & CNN are full of Israel-Iran. Nothing on Gaza or West Bank. Remember that all comms are cut in Gaza as they starve. Exactly what Netanyahu wanted. They can do anything they like now as the vapid MSM chase the new squirrel released for their distraction.

People replying 'it's all ageing'... well ageing is not random. It's the product of innovation in healthcare, changes in knowledge about what causes ill health, changes in behaviour responding to that or otherwise, choices to spend on prolonging life or not.
