A compelling and alarming investigation from Richard Holmes here - a must read --

Okay. Cool cool. This is just a thing now. Cool.

I've two long drives and a lot of cleaning/tidying ahead of me soon. What are some of the best new podcasts y'all listening to? Intend to listen to @carolecadwalla.bsky.social's Stalked. Anything else?

If someone told me this was an extract from an evening in Elon Musk's life, I'd believe it.

Another great piece from @bengartside.bsky.social - ad campaign to dissuage people from coming to the UK is telling the far right "their tactics of violence and division are working”. inews.co.uk/news/politic...

"Microsoft believes it has made a key breakthrough in quantum computing, unlocking the potential for quantum computers to solve industrial-scale problems"

Huh interesting to see Deliveroo back advertising on X… and under this post.

Today marks one year that I have been at the brilliant @theipaper.com. Here's some of my fave pieces... 🧵

Imagine how unhinged you'd have to be to do this and then .. what? put them in your main Slack channel? Drop them on Teams? Or would you dish them out at the afternoon stand up?

'Children playing some of the most popular free mobile phone games downloaded through the Apple app store are being targeted with gambling adverts' by @sanyaburgess.bsky.social inews.co.uk/news/mobile-... #childfinancialharms

Yet another red flag for Roblox into today's Counter Extremism Project email. Completely wild more journalists are not scrutinising this game.

Lol @sarahjebner.bsky.social not mucking around with the subject lines today! She's not wrong

Bought these in a moment of giddiness in M&S and upon trying them can't decide if they are completely delicious or an abomination. I seem to change my mind each sip. I think the smell is far too strong but the flavour is quite nice??

Oh, to be a cat in a sunny window on not one but two cushions…

Govt highlights reasons the UK is crap to ward off migrants. It would be funny if it wasn't so unfunny:

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it: www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

More people were fatally attacked by dogs in the north west of England than anywhere else in the UK over the past five years, according to data obtained by The i Paper. inews.co.uk/news/areas-h...

Had no idea there was a documentary version but this book is so good and so depressing and so infuriating

A few weeks old now, but this is an excellent piece by @sanyaburgess.bsky.social - finding gambling companies running ads in mobile games for children inews.co.uk/news/mobile-...

Great follow up from @patrickstrudwick.bsky.social inews.co.uk/news/kevin-s...

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

Where is the longread about how and why everyone is obsessed with jellycats now

The Independent seems to have discovered science clickbait - embargoed journal papers do not require a BREAKING NEWS image. Here's our more measured take www.newscientist.com/article/2467...
