"We’re there for Nato 100%"
That might be more reassuring if it wasn't blatantly obvious that Donald Trump has absolutely no clue what percentages actually mean.

jack asked if i would sketch up a poster to tell people in nearby neighborhoods about the partnership between flock and ring, and this is what i came up with. it can be printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper.
![YOUR RING CAMERA IS AN ICE AGENT
[a drawing of a ring camera with an ice agent dragging a person away in its field of vision]
"In October of 2025, Amazon's Ring announced its partnership with FLOCK, an A.I. surveillance group that freely shares its footage with ICE, the secret service, and the navy. Flock customers can use A.I. tools to sift through footage to assist in all manner of operations (like raids and deportations) without a warrant. Unplug Ring! Melt ICE! Protect your neighbors!

A few months ago Chris Philp called me “unhinged” in a Telegraph article about a video I made.
In it I warned about the brutality of ICE, & argued those who appease Trump would open the door to Fascism here too. I was called ‘hysterical’.
I have 0 regrets about that message.

I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance".
It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder".
The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

The President of the United States has lied to the nation to cover up a murder. That is indisputable fact and everyone knows it.

This short metroidvania has a literal title and a nice set of power-ups for a simple adventure. It manages the combination of upgrades and optional routes really well, and packs a lot into around 25 minutes of gameplay.
