I think I've found a way to articulate what bothers me about the trajectory of the modern tech industry (and to some extent... society). We are on this Earth to provide for each other. That's the "mission" of humanity as I see it. This is incompatible with what the tech industry seeks to do.

The Tories never learned from focussing all their energy on pandering to the extremes of their unsavoury cohort and trying to satisfy all the sound-byte MPs. Can someone please have a word in Labour ears and tell them we need to see a solid identity based on integrity and displaying sound thinking.

Not a single person has been put on trial for killing 72 people at Grenfell. But they can lock up non-violent Just Stop Oil protestors for more than 60 years, because they are a 'danger'.

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

Keir Starmer: "In December 2020 I was working... on one of the most important issues for our country in recent years. What were they doing? Suitcases of booze into Downing Street, partying and fighting, vomiting up the walls, leaving the cleaners to remove red wine stains. That's the difference."

Omg - woke up earlier to hear Trump wants to build Disney Israel (well that’s what it amounts to - doesn’t it?) He sees everything through the lens of a real estate agent - doesn’t he? 😱🤯

The world's richest man - perhaps the richest man who has ever lived - gloating about shutting down aid for the world's poorest people. All while posing as the champion of the common man. The great lie of populism in its most naked and morally putrid form.

We’ve been watching Wolf Hall, a fascinating study of how the fragile male ego of a fickle, greedy despot creates a culture of deep cruelty and mistrust, where everyone lives in fear of saying the wrong thing. Thank goodness we’ve moved on from those times.
