The only thing that connects me to that Barbie is headphones (not ear defenders!) and 80% of people under 50 wandering around today do so wearing earphones or headphones

Exactly! I can understand a wheelchair user Barbie because it’s a visible
Aid that helps with representation but ND Barbie is just like everyone else with slightly different internal wiring.

"The maximum time a prisoner can spend on remand is 182 days (six months). Yet Muraisi and Ahmed were arrested in November 2024, and are not due to be tried until June at the earliest, which means they will be remanded for 20 months."
Shameful.

Everyone knows The Tismists all wear BIG HEADPHONES so we just put BIG HEADPHONES on a Barbie, so now she's autistic.
Also probably not an accident that they palmed off the autistic Barbie on to an ethnically coded model and not the alabaster white blonde Ubermensch Barbie

My brother is very into using AI that essentially renders designers and film makers redundant. He sings its praises for that reason but doesn’t recognise soon he’ll be redundant too when it comes for his job.

People who can afford to invest 7 figures in businesses shouldn’t complain about a few grand more in rates. Take less profit. It’s not for the tax payer to support their business via the state alongside spending money in their business. Can’t they see they’re the problem?

Trump seems to be threatening to NATO because he didn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize (which he misspells). Of a piece with reports that he refuses to back Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corinna Machado because she accepted the Nobel Peace Prize he wanted.
Trump: "I single-handedly ENDED 8 WARS, and Norway, a NATO Member, foolishly chose not to give me the Noble Peace Prize. But that doesn’t matter! What does matter is that I saved Millions of Lives ... I DOUBT NATO WOULD BE THERE FOR US IF WE REALLY NEEDED THEM."

Can we not give Trump the nobble piss prize and make it shiny and huge, the hugest shiniest thing he’s ever seen, the meat most exclusive prize in the whole world. That might stop him invading foreign lands. Maybe?

The kinds of damage this could do to people under an authoritarian regime like Trump is terrifying. Ofc the UK will ignore it all so they can lodge their Tongues firmly up the American economy’s chocolate starfish
"The report concluded that it remained unclear whether or not US intelligence would be able to access the data, despite Palantir’s official reassurances otherwise. The 🇨🇭army also found other issues, in terms of its cost & the fact that it might require Palantir specialists to be permanently onsite"
