Still think Antifa isn't violent? Here's bodycam footage of Antifa founder B.J. Blazkowicz shooting a heroic member of ICE who was just trying to protect this great nation. Thank God we have Blazkowicz's girlfriend in custody.

This also indicates the essential dishonesty of saying “it’s just a tool.” A hammer is a tool. Nobody writes about the “inevitability” of hammers. Nobody has ever studied the harmful effects of hammers on learning and concluded that teachers must all hit their students with hammers “responsibly.”

Think I read somewhere that the sudden flashes of pinky purple on costumes were due to undiagnosed colour blindness in one of the production team? Like they thought they were choosing military grey? I may be wrong and cba to look it up right now…

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

Feeling equally ambivalent on those two too. (Is that the right word? Like kind of equally appreciative of either at this point)

If a news organisation is making -200% margin after five years, it is not a commercial operation and should be assumed to have a different purpose.

Nobody has the spare cash to pay for a glass what you pay for a bottle, or pay for a pint what you can buy a six pack for, but sure, encouraging antisocial drinking hours so people are PROPERLY plastered at 3am and screaming down your street is definitely the answer. 🤦‍♂️

Pubs to stay open until early hours in move to boost UK growth

Exclusive: Plans for England and Wales would help ailing hospitality sector but health experts criticise move Pubs, clubs and restaurants will be able to open into the early hours as part of Labour’s drive for economic growth, a move which critics say will lead to more drunken disorder. Ministers are pushing ahead with plans to allow premises that sell alcohol to extend their opening hours in order to boost “the British night out” and help the hospitality sector.

Nothing about whether it’s good or not… just doing it seems to be enough. God I hate this world and would quite like to live elsewhere.

Also, what I thought was some sort of a scarf is literal neck beard. Like nothing on the face but a 50s ‘stache, then I’ll keep everything from my clavicle to my chin warm and STOP.

Sweet Jesus, every word of the article get worse and worse, but this gem stood out:
The clue is in the name you utter morons.

From the Times: “To him, the idea that all young men are turning to Reform is “hyperbole” and the Conservatives are still the best “vehicle for change”.”

Office Interior, lunchtime:
Montevideo Hughes is unwrapping a supermarket branded cheese salad sandwich and meticulously picking out all the salad elements.

His colleagues, Martin, Linda and Everard watch on, aghast.

Martin: What are you doing??

Linda: Do you not like salad or something?

Zelda Williams, on how she feels about people generating AI videos of her dad Robin. I echo these same sentiments on AI. It's repulsive, overpriced fast food that isn't art, or entertainment. I recommend everyone take time to read this and evaluate how you see AI. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The filmmaker said it is not what her dad, who died in 2014, would have wanted.

Same. But not just into, how did he get out? Did his indestructible body rebuild itself? Did they peel him off the spiked walls? How much did he remember?
Also: fascinated by what kills him and what he can walk off, like the opening machine gun salvo…
