obviously not the major driver of his health concerns but it is very funny to read A Christmas Carol as an adult and realize that when tiny tim first says "God bless us, every one!" he's a severely malnourished child and they've given him a cup of hot gin

🚨 BREAKING: Oversight Dems received 95,000 new photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate. These disturbing images raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world.

Everyone has been getting richer over the past 30 years. The super rich have been increasing their wealth much faster than the rest though. This means inequality increased too.

dead internet theory was just slightly ahead of its time
googled something and clicked a link to a website I'd never heard of that looked like a forum, read the discussion and realized the person asking a question and all of the answers were all LLM generated, the entire website was a fake forum pretending to be people asking/answering questions

NI road safety ads have been particularly grotesque. Here's a famous one from 2000 (second only to the one where an entire field of schoolchildren get flattened by a car):

This fits into my theory that reality television was the beginning of the end of Western Civilisation
i think a (perhaps underappreciated) aspect of this whole situation is the extent to which every elite profession is filled with people who excel at drawing attention and want to be famous more than they want to do the actual job

This statement appears to be untrue for 95-99% of British people convicted and imprisoned abroad
I would be interested to see the statistics per country per year behind this statement
