The Grok thing is a perfect lesson, really, about how ai "tools" will absolutely reflect and echo the ideological priorities and weird obsessions of its owners

slushies, a precursor to bubble tea

Treble next year yeah? #arsenal

Glad we got a glimpse of an iconic Inzaghi drenched suit there

there's been some enjoyable experimental defending across this tie, as well as some bits of classic defending. it's like one of bowie's berlin albums.

Big up Rory

105 million pound bargain

FUCK ME

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

Get in. Sublime Russo hattrick in an extremely impressive #Arsenal performance. Madrid haven't had a sniff. #afc

me coming in guns-a-blazing, with absolute certainty and confidence that what I say next will eliminate any doubt about my competence

In the space of a few minutes Lewis-Skelly has tucked in to form a back three, overlapped so that Rashford can drive in on his right foot and joined the front five in an inside forward spot. We should continue to be staggered by his game intelligence six months into his top level career.

What's the point of a Lee Kang In?

I'm Still Here just absolutely destroyed me, incredible film

Cmon Celtic

You guys ever think, I mean really think, about the phrase "cost of living"? Like, the horrors it reveals?

Tesla's charging infrastructure (and proprietary chargers) is a huge selling point for their cars. Having more chargers that aren't Tesla stations would make it easier for competitors to sell their cars. Doing this kills Tesla's competition.

“um, epic bacon! it seems that we need the regulation about open vats of dangerous chemicals. sorry about your father! DOGE offers you a two week free trial for X.”

The U.S. nuclear arsenal has been placed in the care of a 17-year-old Stanford dropout named Sneedly Snotson. His phone contains 6 different AI girlfriend apps. At the moment he is piling plutonium into the trunk of a Waymo taxi

It’s so sick that the Harris campaign landed on a one-in-a-million political communicator and immediately muzzled him so they could bring out Liz Cheney

Mate, that's ridiculous. Nwaneri absolutely Saka'd that

“Tiresome talking about referees” says @23carra.bsky.social. I agree. What time is Ref Watch on tomorrow ? Mike Dean on soccer Saturday next week? The Howard Webb show? Is Howard back on the otherwise wonderful ‘Stick to Football’ again anytime soon? Tiresome.

Idea for cocktail "The Power and the Glory" Riff on Spanish Monk

ME: *writing in my journal with the sole aim of pissing off future historians and archaeologists* I returned to my home - which is built in the usual style - by the normal way, and prepared and ate dinner in the way I often but not always do

The Chinese have developed their own open-source Hawk Tuah meme coin and the rug pull only uses one-tenth of the computing power and scams 15x the number of horny victims.

The Irish government should purchase and nationalise Guinness

nominally “liberal” mainstream media is now running cover for an out and about fascist. these are dark times we are living in and we truly cannot rely on these fascist sympathizers anymore

You spend years platforming and agreeing with Nazis and the next thing you know people are not charitably interpreting a hand gesture

i think someone should uhhh (trying hard to remember the rules on this site) take elon musk to luigi’s mansion

headline of the year wrapped up within a fortnight

hi mate the AI analysed your NHS records in 0.1 seconds and you’re booked for an assisted death at 7am tomorrow. no sorry you can’t have the afternoon off work

Wonderful wonderful film. Absolutely loved it. The pain is real, and beautifully handled. An Oscar for Culkin for the closing close up shot of his face. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ja...

Villa deserve that one though to be fair. I'll give them the equaliser on the strength of those shirts alone.

Multiple companies are discontinuing their blu ray and 4K players. In addition to the obvious, devastating implications for film preservation, it illustrates once again that the ultra-rich will not be happy until everything in our lives is subscription-based. A landlord for every need.

The problem with this article is that the media hasn't been very empathetic here. This isn't a case of "white man kills family" and the photo is him jet skiing. The media has actually been trying pretty hard to shame everyone who is being empathetic to him. The empathy is coming from social media.

David Raya bloody hell
