Whether it's Obama wearing a tan suit or Donald Trump tanking the economy, alienating America's allies, sending innocent people to torture camps, destroying the free press, and causing millions of deaths worldwide by ending USAID, both sides have brought great shame to our country.

If I'm reading the charts right (very possible I'm not), looks like the power outages in Spain & Portugal are somewhere on the demand side, rather than supply side (i.e. a power plant didn't fail, something transmitting energy did). Here's the forecast vs actual load for Spain today:

I can't stop laughing at this man I'm sorry. This is the kind of shit the biggest loser in the world would say to their girlfriend about buying her flowers on Valentine's Day once, and he's doing so in an argument that started because he called her a bitch

(on a personal note it's quite striking how quickly I've gone from "generally a bit of a pinko on defence issues" to "and could I just do a monthly direct debit to BAE Systems, would that help")

Zelenskyy is my hero. A true anti-fascist. A man with more bravery and dignity in his other finger then most of his detractors will encounter in their lifetime

JD Vance is a snivelling little shit, but thanks to him I'm now donating £100/month to Ukraine: u24.gov.ua

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

This is a President who skipped a World War One commemoration because it was raining talking to one who has stood in front of a fresh mass grave of his own people.

Of all the teams the Lions could lose to, I'm glad it was the other team in the league which plays like they're playing real life Madden. Gonna be rooting for them the rest of the playoffs!

Nwaneri's confidence is absurd: 4 players inside who he could reasonably pass to, but he runs at goal and smashes it in the back of the net - that kind of attacking spirit and speed is something we've been desperately lacking. Is he just too young to feel pressure? #Arsenal

Planned to test the resilience of bcachefs at some point on my new home-server before fully migrating: excitingly one of my nvme drives has decided to do that for me! Time to actually eat lunch and attempt to fix after work

Are you even celebrating Christmas properly if you don't start your holiday doing a fresh Arch Linux install and configuring bcachefs to auto-unlock at boot with a custom systemd unit file? gist.github.com/RlndVt/7055b...

You know who hasn't had this degree of media support for their financial interests? Disabled people, poor people with more than two kids, public sector workers (after all that clapping for the NHS). I'm not usually a 'blame the media' person but seriously - this is mad
