Wright argued that the increase in natural gas production was the "largest driver of decarbonization" in the United States.

2 things:

1) Joel is right here in that AI is a "restorative" nostalgia (from Svetlana Boym) machine, in that it produces a past that never existed & tries to drag it into the present

2) the crusade imagery is violent white supremacy (see next post)
It’s quite telling that so many right-wing dealers in nostalgia are embracing the aesthetics of modern AI-generated art. Can’t actually find real images of the imagined past to which you want us to return? No problem; just generate it with AI.

Interesting how much more Ed Davey regularly comes across as the opposition grown-up at PMQs than the actual 'Leader' of the Opposition .

BadEnoch completely hapless at PMQs. Complaining that Starmer hadn’t answered the question, when has any PM actually answered a question. The whole thing is a pointless embarrassing waste of time. Meanwhile the fascist 🐸 is lining his pockets on Times Radio 🤯

It's his freaking job to be at the House of Commons.

This is disgusting.

Meanwhile, you can bet your house that if/when Farage is PM, he will use #PMQs to deliver Trumpian diatribes against his enemies.

Nothing sums up UK politics' response to our current Big Tech dystopia better than this quote from Kemi Badenoch's spokesman about X creating sexual deep fakes of children.

"Something must be done" he says, but no idea what, if anything that something should be

AMAZING DRAGON (1982)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 30" x 19"

When Amazing Stories commissioned me to do the cover for the premier issue of their newly redesigned magazine, I decided that the painting should encompass both the realms of science fiction and fantasy. 1/3

You do not feel safer in London *despite* it being more diverse than other towns.

You feel safer in London because it is generally safe, and there being a lot of brown people here has LITERALLY NOTHING to do with how safe you are.

If you missed this question to Nigel Farage from The Critic's Rob Hutton – and it was over an hour into the press conference – then it was a particularly good one. The answer was... vague.

This guy has been glued to me since I brought him in from the porch and rescued him. He was abandoned by a family, possibly because he was outside and they couldn't find him, but still... this is Sam Francisco, elder statesman and lap warmer.

Reform UK won’t say ‘private’ when talking about the NHS. Richard Tice is calling it ‘independent’:

"Instead of giving £26bn to the already bloated wasteful NHS, we proposed easing pressure on the health service by incentivising those who can afford to pay more to go independent with a tax break."

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.
