I suspect we are seeing the inevitable consequences of Labour using AI to do background checks.

After The Zombies split up, they continued working together, thus rendering the split futile. She Loves The Way... also top.

yeah pampered twats eating chickens that have been rotated
Gen Zers and millennials are swimming in student debt and may never own homes, but they’re splurging on gut-healthy juices and rotisserie chickens.
The Booming Business of Luxury Grocery Stores
A new crop of gourmet grocers has hit the city, drawing lines of trendy TikTokers, MAHA-curious health fiends and Instacart devotees who want to pop in for a treat.

#JonnysTrekTrek Prime Factors. An interesting premise - the crew on the wrong side of the Prime Directive, Space France - unfortunately falls to pieces when some clumsy narrative choices end up undermining pretty much all the characters, apart from Shakoty, who was barely in it.

This is really interesting for polling nerds.
I only recently found out about the Gen Z 'Christian revival,' where seemingly legitimate polls are showing a quadrupling of church attendance among young adults.
Naturally, I had to look into the data myself, and found a more mixed picture than I'd expected.

The Gen-Z Christian 'revival', polling bots, and immigration
Botched online polling is unhelpful, but so is not having a clear picture of demographic change

The album lives up to its title. Their second division tracks are as good as their hits - and it's still only scratching the surface.

Did the thing where I couldn't come up with an idea for a story, totally stuck, so I thought, I know, I'll just write a 'discussion document' of the plot points I want to cover and then reverse engineer how to get to them and lo and behold, a story has popped out. #TheMagic #GlimpseBehindTheCurtain

1. Many here seem bemused by the anger and disappointment this government attracts. Please bear with me while I try to explain it.
Let’s begin with Gaza. Starmer’s complicity is one of the major reasons so many people are disillusioned.

I do think one of the root causes of Labour's problems is that they won the election with only a third of the vote; they didn't come to power on the crest of a wave of popularity and what goodwill they had they used up almost at once. Lots of backbenchers one twitch of the dial away from extinction.
Our first-past-the-post electoral system clearly can't cope with the strains placed on it by a politically fractured, multipolar electorate. I suppose we'd better get used to this instability unless or until that system is changed.
