This is actually an amazing speech

And so astounding that this is where we are - that you can’t present a silly/serious Radio 4 programme and think trans ppl might not be evil without getting the sack.

Just one final thing - someone filmed some of my departure speech after Monkey Cage last night (I should make it clear no one knew I was going to do it) and it has been put up here - i cannot deny i was very emotional #science #comedy

And what did you do while they live streamed a genocide?

Think what your answer is and if it isn't "I tried to help them" change that now. Imagine future generations and make them proud.

Hey @nature.com, have you got an explanation for how the hell THIS happened? & especially why you accepted a paper with such a bizarre piece of genAI slop in it?!
& more to the point, why we should take you seriously at all going forward?

Figure 1 from a paper published in Nature (linked in post). The figure purports to be an infographic depiction of the "Overall working of the framework" for 'explainably' diagnosing autism spectrum disorder. The infographic is plainly nonsense, containing many spelling errors, nonsense words, meaningless images and graphs. Clearly created using generative AI and (crucially) NEVER CHECKED AT ANY STEP OF THE WRITING OR PUBLICATION PROCESS.

Far be it from me to leap to the defence of this labour government, but the headline of the BBC currently is

"Rachel Reeves didn't raise income tax, and didn't say she would, with the campaign pledge to not do so, but people thought she might, so now she hasn't, and this is... bad for her?"

Caught this spot an Italian investment firm in the latest @podnews.net mailer and thought "How do you get enough money together to buy AOL, amongst the rest?"

Had a look on Wikipedia, and oh boy. I can only hope no company I ever work for gets acquired by Bending Spoons. A portent of instant firing
Ep 446 of Invest Like the Best with Patrick O’Shaughnessy ▸ interviews Luca Ferrari, the co-founder of Bending Spoons, the company which acquired Streamyard last year (and has also acquired Evernote, WeTransfer, Brightcove, Vimeo and AOL). Screenshot from Wikipedia: On 17 April 2020, the Italian government released a statement on its website announcing that Bending Spoons had been selected to design and develop Italy's official COVID-19 contact tracing app, Immuni. The app was released on 1 June 2020. It was initially released in four regions, then countrywide. The app did not receive significant adoption and successfully tracked less than 1% of the total confirmed positive cases reported during the period it was active.[13] The most commonly cited reasons for not using the app were the lack of perceived effectiveness and major technical issues. Immuni was decommissioned on December 31, 2022. Acquisitions In September 2022, Bending Spoons acquired FiLMiC[16] and converted its video-recording app FiLMiC Pro to a subscription revenue model.[17] In December 2023, the original FiLMiC team were laid off, and development of FiLMiC Pro was continued in-house by Bending Spoons.[18] In November 2022, Bending Spoons agreed to acquire Evernote.[19] The acquisition was concluded in January 2023.[20] In July 2023, Evernote laid off all of its existing staff and announced it would relocate to Europe to be closer to Bending Spoons' headquarters.[21] Bending Spoons made a series of acquisitions in 2024. In January, it acquired the assets of New York City-based mobile app developer Mosaic Group from IAC Inc.; subsequently, Mosaic's entire workforce of 330 staff members was laid off, as they were not part of the acquisition.[22][23] Also that month, Bending Spoons acquired Meetup, a social media platform for organizing in-person and virtual activities.[24][25] In April, the company announced that it would acquire Hopin, owner of the popular live streaming studio StreamYard.[26] Later in July, the company announced it had acquired digital publishing platform Issuu.[27] Also in July, the company agreed to acquire the Dutch file transfer service WeTransfer, then announced in September they were laying off 75% of the company's workforce.[28][29] In November, the company agreed to acquire video platform company Brightcove for $233 million.[30] In 2025, Bending Spoons acquired several companies, including Komoot in March for near €300 million, soon after which it laid off three quarters of the staff. The company also acquired professional services software provider Harvest in June, California-based MileIQ for $233 million in July, video sharing platform Vimeo in September for $1.38 billion, and AOL in October for $1.5 billion.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.
Photo of NBC’s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

Philip K. Dick gets it right again.

Let's hear it for the vague blurs!
From A Scanner Darkly: "Let's hear it for the vague blur!" the host said loudly, and there was mass clapping. In his scramble suit, Fred, who was also Robert Arctor, groaned and thought: This is terrible. Once a month an undercover narcotics agent of the county was assigned at random to speak before bubblehead gatherings such as this. Today was his turn. Looking at his audience, he realized how much he detested straights. They thought this was all great. They were smiling. They were being entertained. An Icegov tweet offering up a photo of new ICE training graduates--"American heroes" with their faces blurred out.

Farage's motion on leaving the European Convention on Human Rights failed: 154 votes to 96

All 4 @greenparty.org.uk MPs voted against it, because we believe international agreements on human rights are a good thing.

But only 63 out of 401 Labour MPs did:

Also, can we all take a moment to appreciate the fact that Comrade Pissbomber, while sprinting across a footbridge being chased by cops, managed to underhand lob a bottle of piss into a crowd of about 200 people and get a *direct hit* on DANNY TOMMO.
