“From November 2026, people would need to score a minimum of four points in at least one daily activity to qualify. Needing help to get in or out of the shower, or supervision to use the toilet are measures that don't meet this threshold” Shocking www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

It is extraordinarily weird watching him conveying a single, cohesive thought for more than five seconds here. It really does show you that, while his heart as always been several shades deeper than vantablack, there's something medically wrong with his brain at this point.

This is a cracking article that sets out the multiple failures of housing policy in the UK (but especially in England). I have been saying for years - the housing crises we face today are the direct consequences of political decisions made by successive Governments.

He's never said it or anything but I have long thought that Trump probably believes some version of "what's the point of having all these nukes if we never use them" and, well,,

A wonderful story about open standards tech, but more so about the benefits of being trustworthy and treating people well. Well worth the time to read.

Discworld QOTD, from Snuff “Cheery was aware that Commander Vimes didn't like the phrase 'The innocent have nothing to fear', believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like 'The innocent have nothing to fear'.”

Schiff has voted with Trump 32 times since January. He gets on TV to talk tough and then literally votes for Trump’s agenda.

A reminder to reporters, when historians look back on this moment with the president throwing himself a military parade and the people throwing No Kings rallies across America, the media sources raving about the former and sneering at the latter are going to be quoted by name. This is your legacy!

They keep softening the figures too. PIP is a gateway benefit so lose that & you lose much more. Many stand to lose in excess of £12k a year so most of what keeps them afloat. Not well enough to work and not disabled enough for support, what are they meant to do? #TakingThePIP #WelfareNotWarfare

Possible to start to tell a unified story: "Trump is personally too old, crazy, and confused to run things, so at any given time the question is which co-president is in charge. At first it was Musk, & we got the crazy chaotic DOGE era. Then Navarro: a trade war that crashed markets. Now Miller..."
