every month features a headline saying "Boost/Blow to Rachel Reeves as GDP SURGES/COLLAPSES 0.1%" and then you read on and it's entirely dependent on whether Jaguar Land Rover have managed to turn on their computers

This is a good article about an important point, but also something I have come to be deeply bothered by - STOP SHOWING HIM LAUGHING UPROARIOUSLY OR WITH A FAG AND A PINT, THE MAN IS A CUNT'S CUNT'S CUNT, AT LEAST USE PICTURES WHERE HE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A PASSENGER ON A FUCKING SAGA CRUISE ADVERT
🔴The EU’s ‘Farage Clause’ Shows the Damage Reform Is Already Doing to the UK

As well as making us poorer each year, Farage’s Brexit is also making us more vulnerable to those who wish to do us harm, argues @chrisgrey.bsky.social

Tremendous to see Leeds-Rotherham-Sheffield getting upgraded, so they'll just HAVE to electrify the MML between Leicester and Sheffield too, right? It's the same line! Leaving a little gap in the East midlands would be silly! Right? Also, I have a bridge to sell you and need to inspect your wallet
I was 20 when HS2 was announced. Great to know i’ll probably be in my late 60s when the Birmingham-Manchester section starts work let alone finishes. Seems like a country doing things the right way!

I celebrate how incometent, dumb and weak these men are. I will only be scared of the fascists when they send along someone worth being scared of

What happened to just walking about and looking at the labels? And I’ve found that if I’m in a country where I don’t speak the language (the ad is set in South Korea) then I can a) make my own musings about the art I’m seeing and b) you think a huge museum in Seoul won’t have English labels too?
saw an ad where a guy only had an hour to looking an art gallery so he asks AI to plan his tour. when there's gallery attendants standing right next to him. it's been about 20 years since I saw a gallery without mapped out routes and headphone tours, never mind simply asking people who work there

I hated this movie with the power of a thousand burning suns. It made me hate all other John Hughes films as well, and Twist and Shout
The scene where Ferris, a smug entitled young white guy, mimes a well known song on a parade float, that he had no involvement with, and gets inexplicably cheered for his 'brilliance' by small handful of people, is an ideal metaphor for modern AI

In summary, I loathe this film

Now I have a name for it, I wonder if I can justify keeping all those old paperbacks when we move house in the Spring
In Japanese, "tsundoku" means collecting books and letting them pile up, not for neglect, but for the joy of knowing they're there, full of untold stories.

The thing that strikes me, among many other things, in this piece of astonishing victim blaming, is that if this is true this Ross guy actually killed the wrong woman, not the one who was abusing him but an innocent bystander who was trying to calm things down. That’s the opposite of what they want!

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

Everything's terrible, except for it's the 8th of January, and in just a couple of hours Peter Bleksley kicks off his absolutely bonkers tour of the UK and Ireland.

I needed to map it to see if there was a rhyme or reason to his route, but no, it's just as maniacal as it seemed.
