This is astonishing: it’s been known for decades that biological sex is not binary. Yes, most of us sit within (by definition) the ‘normative’ part of the spectrum, but this completely disregards the status, human rights and needs of those who are biological outliers. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cv...

Portents and omens in the sky over the Glen tonight. Couple that with assorted earthquakes and it seems to fit the times quite well. Frogs, locusts and boils next, I guess…

So this is the vile neofascist outfit to whom the UK is outsourcing much of its critical data. You’ve been warned about this for years: there are no excuses left.

The 'future Keeling-curve' is officially on hiatus, as the 36-month mean rate of CO2 growth is once again rapidly rising and total CO2 fascist f&%kery is unfolding. In other words, it's the opinion of the Climate Casino that no maximum for CO2 over the next 100 years can be forecast. No more bets.

I asked ChatGPT to rank world leaders in terms of psychopathic tendencies, using the PPI-R scale. Once I’d reminded it that Trump was again in office, he got top rank, ahead of V Putin, A Hitler(!) and just behind Henry VIII.

Reputations are asymmetrical - they take time to build, but can be lost in the blink of an eye. So the reputation & influence of a nation can take centuries to build, only for it to vanish in a single puff of stupidity. The UK did it with Brexit. The USA has done it in weeks.

If there’s an upside to the current shitstorm, it’s that Europe may start acting as a coherent entity & realise its potential. Which begs the question of how much longer an impoverished & less influential UK can delude itself into thinking that it’s now anything but a geopolitical footnote

WhatsApp is supposed to be end-to-end encrypted, right? In a chat this morning, I happened to respond with ‘Klaatu barada nikto’. As you do. Then went on to Facebook, and a random post with this was the first thing that appeared. So I’m definitely calling Bullshit on Fuckerberg’s claims of privacy.

This is what happens when corrupt stupidity comes up against genuinely intelligent operators. Real power demonstrated. I note that the UK, despite holding >$700Bn in US government securities, doesn’t get mentioned. Almost certainly pathetically fearful and busy brown-nosing Trump.
