It’s funny, but I can’t see any of the tedious cranks who all *knew* last week that Starmer was happy to allow (and in many cases actually help) America invade Greenland admitting they were wrong.
Perhaps they’re having a lie in this morning?

This thread takes a bit of a turn a couple of posts down.
My husband was on the 2 train and a guy started braying about how Renee Good deserved to die and her "lesbian lover" did too. My husband got pissed and said, "You're absolutely disgusting." "Fuck you!" the guy said. "Fuck YOU!" my husband said. The guy left.
See? We just need to talk to each other.

I just can’t decide who to stick in there. Maybe I’ll just have them all queing up. Also, I’ll draw whoever you like in there for £20 (as long as they either deserve it or won’t mind).

Imagine pulling a Compo face over this perfectly reasonable proposal. There’s something so fucked up with men who love cars.
Rather that other people being under threat of death because some tosser wants to drink and drive huh

This was a fascinating read, heartbreaking but fascinating. Made me ask many questions of my own struggle with sound and finding some places difficult to listen in.

Just waiting on my GP to send me a ‘your year wrapped’. Hope the devs were allowed to put some digital confetti in there.

A friend of mine wanted to sell some of my pottery in his shop, and so I gave him a few pieces. They have nearly all sold, and I’m overjoyed on one hand.
On the other hand my desire to keep doing the day job is now at an all time low.

This is such a joy of a book for Beatles fans. Obsessively deep analysis of their work. It occupies a similar place in my heart as @andrewhickey.500songs.com’s work.

It’s for a thing…
Songs with colours in their title/chorus (extra points if they’re songs you have a particularly strong opinion about the colour involved).
Eg. Is your golden brown deep and brassy, or bright and lustrous?

My initial reaction to this take was a knee jerk ‘Oh really? Not, perhaps the walled gardens of BigTech’s social media?’
But @youngvulgarian.marieleconte.com helpfully clarifies further in-thread that she meant the entire fucking internet took us further from God.
No notes.

don't really care how this makes me sound at this point, but the free open internet was a mistake and a lot of people out there were clearly never going to be able to handle it

Pluribus seems to be heading straight into the category of things that for me are fine enough and engaging during the watching but occupy next to no serious thought outside of it. FWIW I had the same issue with Better Call Saul.

Bit obsessed with the idea that big tech is trading software’s asset-light advantage for utility-like capital intensity. Massive GPU spending will hit hard as depreciation whilst AI productivity gains prove illusory and are really just induced demand for low-value features.
