Hate these kind of stories because the OP is right, it does look ridiculous the prime minister is doing this. But of course, he hasn’t done it spontaneously – he’s answering a question from the media. And it would seem a weird throwback to let the PM decide which questions are worthy of answering…

controversial and brave take coming, but I dont think Matt Y broadly knows what he’s talking about

submitted 19 hours ago • 2 comments

MattY is fundamentally a bad faith actor because he is entirely motivated by crass contrarianism, he has no values he is unwilling to betray to feel smarter than people who annoy him

it’s been true for years but anyone who takes anything this man says seriously permanently disqualifies themselves from being a credible source on anything “rewrite the entire corpus of human knowledge” for fuck’s sake

Right wing brainwormed billionaires creating AI platforms that turn on them because their worldview is so stupid and flatly wrong really is quite poetic lol

"The world's richest man logs onto the platform he bought to yell at the AI he had built for fact-checking conservative mega-influencer Catturd2" is a sentence so stupid that future history books may just skip this decade.

Michael Pham fled Vietnam at the age of 13. He was named bishop of San Diego a month ago. Today, he stood watch at a courthouse: ICE agents were “standing there covered with masks as we walked toward the courtroom. Eventually the agents scattered and went away” timesofsandiego.com/life/2025/06...

You can see the ICE agents in their minivans then the LAPD cars in the back appearing to block the Dodger Stadium parking lot entrance. When I asked an LAPD officer if they are blocking ICE from entering the parking lot she said “put it this way. The Dodgers don’t want them coming in.”

This means Trump is now underwater on his handling of nearly all of his core issues: -inflation -immigration -tariffs -protests At what point will politics on these things turn enough that other Republican politicians start to criticize his approach?

The right is not happy about the Mike Lee federal land sale idea. I'm not sure I've ever seen this much bipartisan anger. We'd do well to tap into it

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

It's been tough to live next to America the last while with the active threats to Canadian sovereignty and more, but after a bad freakshow gestapo day like today you see this kind of thing and remember, yeah, the other America is still there. Godspeed to its great cities.

C-SPAN caller to Tapper: "When are you going to examine what's going on with Trump? ... this president has been pure chaos, which indicates to me that there is something wrong with him. We will never get a straight answer on his medical exam, and yet you have gone after Joe Biden with a vengeance."
