There’s an interesting corollary to the “Peak of inflated expectations” for AI specifically which was the “peak catastrophizing” that it was going to lead to human extinction

Those subs stink of “don’t care about the League, just managing minutes” How can you leave Sarr and Bentancur on?

Sarr and Richy (sorry) need to be hooked at HT unless we’re going full ‘League doesn’t matter now’. Tel and Odobert are electric, great to watch

Arrived in a calm manner in plenty of time for a pint in the Beavertown bar and with a seat! Bank Holiday vibes, but Forest will be thinking of the Cup this weekend and we’ve got two proper wingers sticking crosses on Pombo’s head. Up the Spurs!

Who’s coming?

It’s so fucking ON!!!

Now in the UK, any detained woman suspected of being trans will be strip-searched by a man. I guarantee this will impact far more cisgender women than transgender women. This is Rowling’s direct legacy: punishing any woman who isn’t feminine enough. news.sky.com/story/trans-...

Hala Madrid

I largely expected the Supreme Court's ruling on meaning of "woman" under the Equality Act tbh. Puts onus on legislators to be explicit. But some unintended consequences occur to me straight away. Will cynical litigants now demand any woman taking action under the EA prove she was born a woman? 1/2

Quite an important bit of context on the Equality Act sex and gender ruling today (taken from the press summary rather than the judgment proper, as it’s much more succinct – but it flags the relevant pars in the judgment at the end):

Doomscrolling is a tautology. It’s now just called scrolling

and yet they come to Europe and lecture everyone on free speech

Arsenal shirts everywhere you looked in London this weekend btw. They’ve come out of the woodwork with a spring in their step after their performance midweek

I’d bin him tomorrow morning. Can’t be any worse and I don’t trust him to lift the team for Thursday #COYS
