If I were Jessie Buckley (which obviously I’m not), now that voting is over, I’d spend the next week saying the most divisively offensive stuff imaginable. “Judi Dench is a wagon. Puppies are shit. The US should invade Holland. David Attenborough is a fraud. Ha ha! You can’t touch me now.”
I went to Sirat. It was intense.
NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE
then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"
and i was like.
oh!
Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal article titled "The Big Money in Today’s Economy Is Going to Capital, Not Labor." Two charts show trends since 1980: corporate profits rising as a share of gross domestic income, while labor compensation steadily declines.
The Wall Street Journal just illustrated the core argument of my book: a system rigged to reward capital over labor is one in which even full-time work no longer secures the most basic material needs.
This is the economic order that produces the "working homeless."

SWALWELL: You said you wanted to see a deportation process that was 'like Amazon Prime but with human beings.' How many times has Amazon Prime shot a mom 3 times in the face?
LYONS: None
SWALWELL: How many times has Amazon Prime shot a nurse 10 times in the back?
LYONS: None

It’s a murmur made by people who are not quick
trump has probably destroyed the minnesota republican party for the duration
A screenshot from the Graham Linehan Facebook page, dated January 26, 2017. "Here's something to watch for: sub-par entertainers/hacks etc smelling that sweet right wing sucker money and making their move."
Nine years to the day since Graham Linehan foresaw his own fate.
Any film/video pro I know uses Vimeo in some capacity. Now it’s fallen victim to a modern plague - gutting by private equity. it will limp on with more and more expensive services that aren’t as well supported and lose its sectoral position - just like FilmicPro www.engadget.com/big-tech/vim...
The hilarious thing is that the last thing the Bar Council would ever do is advocate for its most vulnerable members
Quite a statement by the Republican governor of Vermont
We must watch for a breach in the living wall that hemmed us in; the wall that had only admitted us in order to shut us up.
So in this vale of Death, God girds us round; and over all our gloom, the sun of Righteousness still shines a beacon and a hope.
This collection, of over 5000 specimens from the 1800 can be used to track changes to plants and to the Irish eco-system over time: paging all students looking for a neat botany project. @bsbibotany.bsky.social @darrenreidy.bsky.social @ailbhe-brazel.bsky.social @scaldararu.bsky.social
I was present for the birth of the web, the explosion of personal sites, and the blogging revolution, and you know what we never had to do? Beg people to use our shit.

What's remarkable is not just that Trump is so loathsome and narcissistic that he doesn't care when an innocent woman is killed in a protest unless and until he finds out that her dad was a fan of his ... it's that he's so disregulated he *can't help but say so out loud*.
If your neighbour sets their house on fire for 4 years & then puts the fire out for 4 years & then sets their house on fire again for 4 more years, you probably shouldn't be making long term plans that rely on your neighbour's house not being on fire, even if they manage to put out the fire again.
I note that Virgin Media News says the elephant in the room at Davos is in fact the Brooklyn Beckham debacle and not the rapid unravelling of the rules-based international order.
In the past few days since Sonia got in contact… the stranger who alerted her that her images had been abused and put online messaged me.
Her name is Lucy. She was also a victim. Her story of a life utterly changed at the hands of this kind of abuser tomorrow on @virginmedianews.bsky.social.
The response from some in positions of responsibility and authority has appeared to be one of equivocating or treating deepfake image abuse as some sort of 'online' issue... a theoretical harm.
Many, many Irish women and girls have already been victims.
It's why the Grok scandal matters hugely.

We have more chance of signing Kirsty Alley
It’s very clever that they have used the I in both Dublin and Ireland
Just almost convinced a guy in the office that Vanessa Paradis had a whole album called "Le Transport Publique", and her follow up to Joe le Taxi was called Pierre le Bus.
I know everyone always moans about interface tweaks but jaysis this new iOS is shocking busy and cluttered. Like this pointless thingummy around the three icons at the bottom.
Today’s humiliation: singing a lengthy song about pizza to a two year old while on a Zoom call board meeting where I thought I was on mute. Still, pizza IS great though
