Michael Heseltine says Brexiteers sold Britain a “pack of lies” and called for the UK to rejoin the EU.

He said the UK should be “at the heart of Europe” and that returning to the bloc would be “in the best interests of a generation of young British people”.

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

Wow. This is just a level of WTF America. :-(
In that familiar old incompetence I haven't missed, Trump's executive order defines sex as what a person is at CONCEPTION.

Fetal sex doesn't begin to differentiate until about 7 weeks into gestation.

Which means Donald used the highest office in the land to declare all Americans legally female.

I’ll tell you it is interesting watching Americans talk to Chinese locals and discovering that a lot of them think that the stories about Americans having to pay for ambulance costs are exaggerated by their government as propaganda. Interesting.

A post on farce-pamphlet pointed out that we are only 25 years away from the start of the shadow run timeline. Somebody further than pointed we are five years into the cyberpunk 2020 future…. The most astute comment was it looks more to me like “paranoia”. #oldschoolTTRPGs.

This is why I think it's important to say 'generative AI' or 'genAI' etc when complaining about fully automated luxury plagiarism machines. A lot of AI and machine learning is good! It benefits genAI companies and enthusiasts if, when you say 'AI sucks', they can pretend you mean this stuff too.
