Millions of people died and will die because he dismantled USAID. Add to that long-term instability in the NGO market and loss of US soft power.

Be Ben & Jerry’s, always stay in the right side of history.

been saying this for like 3 years now, the core constituency of the "manosphere" is not Gen Z or teenage boys, it is 35-55 year old dudes who wish they were still teenage boys

BREAKING: We're now describing the Liverpool driver as a "lovely man" with a "nice family" after discovering he is white British ♥️

Okay, how do you do that? I'll try. Black & white movies. 1. It Happened One Night 2. The Lady Eve 3. The Lost Weekend 4. Mildred Pierce 5. All About Eve That doesn't even start anything.

The idea of a threesome with Elon Musk and Stephen Miller seems like the unsexiest thing ever. Will anyone ever have sex again?

I talked to a nurse the other day who said she is watching all the Korean Netflix stuff because she's learning the language in advance of a big trip in 2026.

Sarrazin hat ein neues Buch. Iiihhh.

Our letter condemning the genocide in #Gaza and calling for an immediate ceasefire. A great crime is being committed, and we cannot stand by. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

despite pushing for control of food and other supplies coming into Gaza, the Israel Defense Forces had not properly prepared to distribute aid and “planned to direct the population using gunfire” PLANNED TO DIRECT THE POPULATION USING GUNFIRE www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

So, I wonder if left-wing twitter is now just journalists talking to each other.

By betraying his voters so comprehensively and so soon, Keir Starmer has done us a favour. He has given us 4 years to design the government we want. In this week's column I explain how it can be done. There's massive potential, but we need to start now. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Will these new homes Labour keep crowing about building be fully accessible? Just 1% of new homes are planned to be wheelchair accessible, despite approx 1.2 million wheelchair users living in the UK. Source: www.pbctoday.co.uk/news/building-control-news/accessible-housing-lockdown/84458

This is six years old, but it’s really funny youtu.be/6VixqvOcK8E?...

Thinking of every academic who has had to apply for grants to cover the cost of requesting and licensing images for their books with zero assistance from a publisher

I haven’t even been given the opportunity to voice demands. And, let's be fair, they're academic books with academic publishers, and one is open access, so I'll never see the money. But I object on principle to billion dollar companies stealing work. Academia is already explotative enough.

You mean they are continuing to do the thing they've been doing for decades...

Yeah. It also doesn't do those pesky human things like contradict you or voice their own needs and desires. Or tell you when you are being a narcissistic knob.

Make TERFs own it. The endgame here is that non-gender-confirming cis women have to conform or prove their gender. Cis women will literally have to show their tits to access public spaces. There are more cis women with short hair than trans women. And the TERFs rolled back time for them.

FUCK! The Shield was so good!

"The nature of forgeries, a subject on which I may boast of some small expertise, is to fool the least discerning, not the most; it is to convince the general public that true greatness never existed, that imitation is reality, that shoddiness is quality. It is an assault on pleasure itself."

"Because, just maybe, the reason we got a fascist leader has less to do with a lack of transparency over a former president’s gait, and more to do with some far more deeply rooted original sins." theracket.news/p/let-joe-go

There's a Matlock reboot with Kathy Bates?

I've been chipping away for a while now on a Guardian Long Read about how Netflix and other streamers' algorithms and data are shaping cinema. I'm looking to chat to directors, producers and screenwriters about their experiences working with these companies - on or off the record. Anyone keen ?

Because it was always about controlling cis women. Thanks, J.K.

This is extraordinary: "emissions by data centres needed to train and deliver AI services are estimated at around 3 per cent of the global total, close to those created by the aviation industry."

"It just really comes as a shock that such accomplished intellectuals, who’ve spent their entire careers pushing the upper bounds of human achievement, could be judgy about a machine that runs the entirety of human imagination through a shredder and glues together what comes out."
