It kinda seems that with the whole public televised execution thing, Hegseth doesn't understand the concept of martyrdom? That's how this reads, right? Ignoring the 'capital punishment doesn't help reduce crime' hook by using it as punishment for a group that actively pursue the end result anyway.

It'd be interesting to see how the disappearing disposable income of youth has affected the UK high street the past 30 years. Heck, the disappearance of game arcades probably had a small part to play too considering associated spending at fast food places - Sega World here had a Burger King.

Things like Books and Tennis equipment are still there, and there's still an HMV, but things going digital in terms of music, film and games really can explain why teens wouldn't be spending money in town and city centres any more. Magazine culture has all but disappeared. Fashion very limited.

Walked through the semi-decimated Bournemouth high street yesterday and tried to remember what a 16-19 year old me was buying there during the late 1990s that isn't there (or necessarily anywhere) in large amounts these days or has gone majority online ordering or digital...

Never fond of "history will judge this harshly" comparisons but my goodness does this look like a graph that will feature in so many future history, geography and economics textbooks. If there is a future OFC.

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

Privatisation in a nutshell: 1) Steal from us something we own. 2) Sell us back an inferior service 3) Charge us a higher price. The pattern is the same everywhere: royal mail, water, railways, the NHS, public services, council services…

I'm also of the opinion that maybe Spielberg's finally losing his Blockbuster magic after all these years and Bay should just be making Bad Boys and Equalizer sequels at this point.

Felt like they hung so much of the previous 2-3 series on the Abbie/Kovac/Sam dynamic and then when that fizzled out and those characters started to move on, they didn't have the storylines and investment with the newer characters. Injury and event 'escalation' was also going crazy by this point.

Had to go do the Wikipedia deep dive to see which season this was and turns out it's the one I definitely did watch because I recognise the incoming cast members, but can't remember anything about any plots or episodes and is the point where I most definitely stopped watching.

When people click through and start asking if it was a 'lunge' - which implies speed and force, both of which evade the Orange Puffer Fish - then the media outlet is under question, NOT so much The President.

Stewed Rat Ryder @stewedrat.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

The reporter asked the question as it should have been delivered - using Trump's own words first and then asking a question about his own contradictory actions. That's the point to be focused on, his confusion, his befuddlement his contradictions.

Stewed Rat Ryder @stewedrat.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Saw the clip of Trump's apparent 'lunge' as reported by MeidasTouch. The centre and left leaning press need to know they're already covering the right things the right way before exaggerating incidents like this. He doesn't have the physical power to lunge, he tilts in and seethes. Don't stoop.

The 'New' one in Poole! I remember going in and seeing a NES playing a demo run of Kung Fu and it stuck hard in my brain. Used to really like the wall of game 'tickets' they would have that you took to the till when you wanted to buy a title.

The consistent argument from the Slop users - 'So let me get this straight, you HATE Gen AI, but you LOVE Transformers? THEY ARE GEN AI!' The constant rebuttal - 'The Gen AI slop you're using is hurting and stealing from humans, like the Decepticons would!' The slop reply - 'Get with the times!'

I maybe pop into FB every couple of days to check on wider family matters (and heck I just enjoy the Smosh content) but in recent days have been watching a Transformers group, which I'm not a member of, tearing itself apart over the constant use of AI slop art from a small portion of the group.

It's really weird that they haven't pushed someone like Raz or Emily to take the hosting reigns or drawn in a different talent to specifically do it. Every single person on the desk is an analyst and it makes the desk segments feel a bit unfocused.

Stewed Rat Ryder @stewedrat.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

The LCS (League of Legends) desk production just has not been the same since they chucked (unfairly) James 'Dash' Patterson. There's no one force pushing the conversation on as a host/link to the audience and Jatt, while incredibly knowledgable, doesn't have the charisma. He masquerades as a host.

Going through my midlife reset, but doing things in that tragic geeky reverse way by selling once precious video games from the 1990s I was never likely to load up again... (It sold within 12 hours of listing and now I'm thinking I underpriced - or maybe just got it right on) #SegaSaturn

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.
