Sometimes you sort of forget how bad it was growing up under Section 28 and then you're like...oh yeah, it was This, Everywhere

GORDON RAMSAY: and the eggs, they are? UGLÙK: they eggs. Taste good. Canapé. RAMSAY: no I mean, where do you get the eggs UGLÙK (gesturing towards Shelob’s lair): Get from big spider RAMSAY: from big spider. Fuck me. Canapé eggs from big spider. Fucking hell.

Michael Young coined the phrase "meritocracy" as satire, and then he fathered Toby Young in case people didn't get the joke.

100% and I need everyone to understand right now that there is only one solution: people need to start getting their asses kicked in public again

Books designed to be read only by human eyes are different from books designed to be read by machines, which is why Google will tell you that the phrase “shake my booty” can be found in an 1863 English translation of Don Quixote.

James Bond is over. Just come up with a new idea now. It’s done. www.bbc.com/news/article...

“put it on his fucking gravestone”

While I would never normally inflict the Daily Heil on the timeline, this is *genuinely* astonishing

Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet, eating her curds and whey:

My favourite bit of this article is the bit where they have to admit that the wealth-hoarding boomer stereotype is 100% accurate.

Oh yes, Homer’s famous “Tes Thdpssssps.” 👍🏻

UK use of predictive policing is racist and should be banned, says Amnesty

taught this in class yesterday re: lean platforms that float for 15+ years without turning a profit, but getting huge investments to keep growing. some people are out there working with play money

An opportunity to post my favorite map

Technology is great, isn't it

Alongside the "for fuck's sake, you're richer than god, pay some copywriters" thing, the lack of *care* is fully jokerising me. Just..."our customers are dumb pigs who deserve slop. They're paying us, and they don't deserve human thought going into what they receive." I hate it so, so much.

I wonder if “woke” is the way that lazy opportunist selfish right wing pricks personify their own almost-silenced inner voice of self examination? Does it mean “conscience”, and they’ve externalised it, made it a villain, othered it? A Jiminy Cricket for the 21st Century narc baby.

A reminder that flight attendants are frequently verbally and physically abused by passengers, criminally underpaid, and when there’s an emergency the pilots bail but flight attendants stay until the last soul evacuates - or not at all - a former flight attendant and proud IAM district 142 member

THIS is what machine learning is good for

Unsurprisingly, Labour chasing after Reform has led to Reform demanding something even more extreme.

When did you last walk through your fire evacuation plan at home? Where are your keys when you go to bed? Can you grab them on autopilot in an emergency? You don't know how you'll react in that situation. Make it as easy as possible to get yourself out. Muscle memory is vital. Walk it through!

CHINA: A 59-yr-old patient of 25 years received a transplant of pancreatic cells derived from his own stem cells in 2021. He is now insulin independent nextshark.com/chinese-scie... This marks the world's first successful use of stem cell-derived islet transplantation to CURE diabetes.

We've all been following this tribunal, we all know what was said and done. We also know that Peggie walked out of a resuscitation area, possibly endangering patients, simply because a trans woman walked in. This is how the Telegraph frame all that

“This one is ostensibly about the nature of sentience. [ … ] But the fundamental question is not about any of that. It’s not about whether robots are really people. It’s about whether women are really people, and what might happen if we trust them with human autonomy”

Man, I need to rewatch pontypool

finally watching the kendrick halftime show it has a real "for fans of drake being publicly executed, consider also: political engagement " vibe

Good morning to this man, and this man only #bbcqt

Did not expect to be a Macklemore fan, but after Hinds' Hall, Hinds' Hall 2, and now Fucked Up - I gotta say, this man puts his reputation, money, and skills to more ethical and just use than 99% of people with any level of influence on this planet. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn9E...

Linkedin notification telling me that half of all people get a different result when they retake Myers-Briggs. Yeah, it's almost like the test invented by unqualified white supremacists to do eugenics is not actually science.

i'm not fucking around btw. 20% of people with bipolar die of suicide and 10-13% of people with schizophrenia do. and untreated people make up a large proportion of those numbers. 50% of cop murders are mentally ill people, with untreated psychosis being a huge % of that number. this will kill us

delete your fucking twitter

I dunno I might never buy a new product that connects to the internet ever again.

“nobody saw this coming” = “we considered everyone who saw this coming a nobody”

“The name ‘Gulf of Mexico’ is officially recognized by the International Hydrographic Organization, which seeks to standardize the names of international maritime features for certain purposes and counts all three countries adjacent to the gulf as member states”
