Darren Grimes was born in 1993

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.

This is absolutely disgusting.

The sooner we collectively realize that Elon Musk is a shitposting, conspiracy-addled fool, who needs to stay out of public policy not upend it, the safer we’ll all be.

Damn 😂 Putin's manbaby blames Ukraine for being invaded

Two superpowers opening discussions on the future of a country which one of them is still invading, without that country

I mean, I don’t think she’s actually a fascist but this is fascist rhetoric: civilisation on the brink, imperilled by dark forces, only we are strong enough to save it. It is hysteria and demonisation. It is not the language of democracy.

The misogynists are in control of the asylum

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Not even six hours apart.

A lawyer’s resignation letter for the ages, and that penultimate paragraph is an absolute corker.

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

Lord Heseltine, "The creation of the EU Single Market was Margaret Thatcher's greatest achievements" "I am appalled by Brexit" "I don't believe for an instant that we should accept the verdict of a pack of lies, in order to persuade people to sever our relations with Europe"

OK that’s quite funny.

After a Christmas of candles all over the place, I realise that what I really need is a candle that smells like candles that have just been blown out.

Insane

If anything happens to Jess Phillips. Use posts like these to pursue any criminal prosecutions.

PM's direct defence attack on Elon Musk is brave, correct factually and probably the only sensible PR strategy here, this is not about politics so much as truth. This is in my view Keir Starmer's best comms moment so far.

Quite. Although, I am not *that* astonished

There are 3.4 million girls 14 and under in England. Elon Musk just wrote that 1 out of every 13 such girls is right now being “systematically raped by migrant gangs.” The man has gone utterly insane. He’s a sociopath. His latest post is—unambiguously—neo-Nazi rhetoric intended to incite violence.

One of my favourite modern authors, kept me reading throughout my 20s

I want a special offshoot series of the Traitors where all the contestants are lawyers.

This disgusting racist continues to blame the New Orleans terror attack on the “border” and immigrants when he knows damn well the murderer is a US citizen from Texas. There’s not an ounce of honesty or leadership in this dangerous sociopath…

Another Express poll in urgent need of balance...

And it will continue until we do something about the rabid right-wing press. It's incomprehensible to me that we have allowed it to continue.

Excellent. I really feel that gen AI is going to reduce the world to dribbling stupidity

So @nigelslater.bsky.social... I have just sat down to make your mincemeat cake, having clipped it a week or so ago. And this recipe makes no sense I can't mix the flour and almonds and set aside and ALSO mix in the flour and baking powder earlier in the process...

This is a person who Kemi Badenoch thinks should sit in the House of Lords. The tweets start in 2009 - Young was 45 at the time. Appalling misogyny, casual homophobia... the lot

It’s always the 1980s in Trump’s brain

The last 48hrs in Germany: - Musk: "AfD is great." - Foreign looking guy mows over 50 people. - AfD on twitter: "It's all Merkel's fault. Deport the Muslims!" - Sleuth finds perpetrators's twitter: - "It's all Merkel's fault. AfD forver!" - Musk deletes perpetrator's account.

This is appalling. How can Badenoch possibly justify this and what an indictment of this archaic system

King of the Tosspots

The open and wilful deceit, utter bullshit and deliberate failure to recognise what every poll says about public opinion on this. What an extraordinarily dismal piece of crap he is.

I’m like a broken record with this but we really are massively underestimating how the world is still dealing with the collective derangement induced by the Covid years

Brexit support collapses, so Labour’s last excuse has gone eastangliabylines.co.uk/pecksniff/pe...

I really wish you could zoom pictures in Bluesky in the browser with the mouse-wheel...

Oh god. The inevitable Daily Mail tantrum at a Labour govt edging towards a slightly less ruinous relationship with our own continent. What do these idiotic nationalists want? Permanent hostility? Endless cost and loss? ‘Betraying’ Brexit is an act of patriotic necessity now, you howling clowns.

My sis-in-law's nativity scene sees the baby jesus kept warm on a bed of Ginsters pie

During Covid lockdown, if you had family round on Christmas Day the police could force their way into your home and make them return to their own homes. Does anybody know if this service is still available and, if so, do you have to book it?

How it started: "We need to feed our LLMs copyrighted material without permission or compensation for creators in order to achieve the social good promised by generative AI." How it's going:

Oh, what a surprise. Who could have predicted that Newsnight would platform Sebastian Gorka based on Newsnight's interviews from 2016-2020?

Usual top-quality piece from @iandunt.bsky.social
