Heard you talking with Mark Steele and it clicked when you said something like 'following arbitrary rules'. That's it, in a nutshell. Though I don't have ADHD or ASD I struggle 10x when there is abstract nonsense between me and complex objectives, but otherwise I excel.
Democracy and society need educated informed citizens to function. But the education system has been repurposed only to produce workers. The exception that proves this rule is elite education, which actually is education in how the world works, and how to work its forces. Education should be for all
TODAY, Friday January 23rd, 2026:
We are ALL residents of Minnesota.
We ALL want #ICE_OutForGOOD 🚫 🧊
Also: #ICE_OUT4ReneeGood 💔
That’s it … I’m voting Green from now on. Labour has proved that it is incapable of standing up for the values I thought it was created to represent.
This video shows exactly what life in today’s UK is like and promises to change it.
Is the UK government scared of the orange nonce clown and his evil sidekick Tesla buddy? bylinetimes.com/2026/01/07/k...
When Americans insist "it can't happen here," they’re wrong. A sociologist who studies collective memory and identity examines how the U.S. forgot its own fascist movements and what that collective amnesia means today.

The 'tax break' bit is the giveaway, in more than one sense of the term
Toppling a dictator while refusing to contend with #Putin on the same terms is the epitome of the capricious autocrat. They become each other.
But what else can a dishonest grifter do to earn a crust?
Let's not go down that route. There are plenty of other reasons the UK and Israeli establishments cooperate, not least military industries and intelligence, which would make the government beholden to them.
Entirely possible that PA have intent to do significant actions - but by #spycops or worse(?) within them as agent provocateur to tip it over the edge into terrorism and prosciption on this fabricated pretext to disable the whole organisation
😳😮😲. As the Joe Turns
Fun fact: Every other leader of the democratic free world would've arrested Putin on the spot. Instead, America's cowardly pedophile president fawned over, flattered, and celebrated the most murderous dictator of the 21st century — desecrating everything America stands for.
Not necessarily so. Means testing the state pension above a reasonable level could save it. Withdrawing it from the better off who already have income several multiples of the basic state pension is low hanging fruit and is the next step at age 68
There is a third pillar: regulatory capture entrenching oligarchs' rentierism; we see it happening in the property market where they are buying up assets while the young are being squeezed out of the lifeline property market and the oligarchy hammered Corbyn for countering with #LandValueTax policy
Liz Kendall's review of the state pension age exposes the absurd elitist calculus that forces workers to grind until exhaustion. Subvert this relic of inequity through genuine reform. #PensionReform #UK
Watering down by conflating the meaning of terrorism will have serious future consequences. Not least diverting police and security services' skills and focus when critically needed to protect people from terror attacks. www.declassifieduk.org/revealed-how...
Much about football at the moment. How about if it became far more dynamic and far less strategic? There are those who say 'I can't see the point in that' That's precisely the point, there is no point. This from #FIFA www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ezbn...
Media is an ideological battle ground that obfuscates understanding and disempowers so many people before they ever reach voting age. Politics students get an insight that all young people should be increasingly exposed to from the age of ten onwards. amergent.blogspot.com/2025/07/demo...
🤣 🤣 I have some studying up to do!! Scottish names for Trump 🤣 @zee207702.bsky.social Is McShits on here? 😆 “Shit-Spackled Muppet Fart 💨 “
Vintage black and white photograph of a young girl with curly hair wearing a dark dress with a white lace collar
27 July 1932 | A Yugoslavian Jewish girl, Vera Frisch, was born in Osijek.
In 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber.
Add an option to avoid all family farm and business inheritance tax at any value: Place farm inheritance assets in a state held trust free of IHT, to separate real family business from financialised activities and allow farms to focus on investing in production. amergent.blogspot.com/2025/07/prot...
We are near the point at which AI can skip the costly backpropagation process and directly access pattern at a deep-learning level, with the use of new models of the brain that do likewise. arxiv.org/html/2507.05...
And that brings me to the point of an essay I wrote about backpropagation back in 1998, that AI will run rings around human thought processes the moment it can dig deep enough into our linguistic cognitive processes. In terms of linguistic keys we are already there. Copyright will be an own goal.
It could well be that it will evolve to include a writer/artist's style or theme due to the development of AI, and hence removal of all fair dealing. But that then brings us to the point where no artist can even hint at another artist's work. Only the true AI can then create something novel....
Copyright came about in order that reproduction of arts could be commercialised. Intellectual property is a legal fiction and is thus negotiable leading to a change in its market value, unlike other types of property.
What AI is capable of is the extraction of underlying fundamental languages in human thought, and then using those languages to create new and different patterns. Some artists and authors may be able to argue that their work has been replicated but AI companies will soon avoid doing that. Then what?
Or photographs taken of two different architects' buildings then using the underlying patterns to create something that is neither but with the objective of then evolving something new and maybe improved. That is where evolutionary algorithms are going
