We live with the ghosts of the end of history.

They should really not show the standalone images though, they’re usually bad. I don’t mind the inane actual microtext with 2-4 retweets.

This has to be social media. It has to be coming out of the morass of people who actually don’t remember the Cold War.

If the NYT had that amount of credibility I’d think so too, but I find it hard to think it likely as it is.

over at the New York Times, Kristi Noem's goon squad forcing a United States Senator to the floor and handcuffing him after he identified himself is a "sign of the rising political tensions"

It sounds like a parody?

Like it doesn't quite seem real that we're imagining that by 2050 we'll have changed the entire built environment for Net Zero and yet... increasing train frequency takes literally decades.

Surely they work in a pun of some kind?

Why have they switched the token gay between the preview and the article

Is there much evidence that there was any real plan to incorporate the various random ep8 plot lines into ep9?

Sucks that you leave the cesspool at X and still face this.

But then what do you play your Nintendo Switch 2 on?

Why don’t politicians simply build economic buildings where the best bonuses are?

We need *cough* serious *glances to the side* gaming journalism.

Agree. David Cameron not having a favourite team was a minor political scandal. These hobbies affect those who don’t participate too.

I mean, the actual US government *is* sending in actual military forces to a US city for crowd control…

Oh c’mon, the 19th century? Weak. That’s barely historical. Tell me it’s destroying a Roman villa.

My Europa Universalis IV time has cost pennies per hour, and that’s actually *bad* that’s far too little. (And it’s an old calculation I refuse to update.)

It deserved a middling performance creating a small profit.

I suppose that’s true. Here’s hoping.

Well I can’t argue with that too much seeing the replies to various tweets about London not getting new funding here. Even popular among the nominal left. I just feel there’s an actual problem in London that I don’t see/feel visiting Manchester.

I don’t get this vibe when I visit Manchester at all. It feels like it’s improving.

Such a huge difference even in London. Just the increase in litter alone makes such a difference to the street feel.

I suppose that’s a good outcome though? Probably.

It really does not get said enough how every choice that put the Conservatives in their current position were choices the party itself made, actively and unforced.

The one bad thing about BlueSky is I can’t check whether Cameron has deleted his chaos with Ed Miliband tweet yet.
