There is a rather compelling argument in this video that Home Alone is more sadistic than Saw.

The banter at the start of this is so fucking funny.

A Clarkson’s Farm account (it’s a fan account but it’s verified) with over 300k followers on X has posted an AI-generated video of Jeremy Clarkson assaulting Keir Starmer. 1 million people have viewed the video.

I am so full of admiration for Charlotte Nichols’ courage in talking about this - particularly awful that as a woman in public life she will have had to consider first how people might use this information against her, especially online. Hope she has all the support she needs.

Every morning George Smiley puts on a three-piece suit and his preposterously large spectacles and asks himself β€˜whose tea shall I clock today?’

Back on my Tinker Tailor shit. I love how they present this child as a sort of proto-Smiley, glasses and all. The school storyline used to feel random to me, but it adds so much.

Okay last post about this I promise, but when a certain kind of person talks about "the imperial core" I get the sense they're not aware that there are washing machines in Botswana.

My favourite part is when she's forced to concede that, yes, people have more free time now, but not her - she's spending all the time she's gained from automation "fighting for the survival of our comrades and children". Checkmate!

Incredible thread, wrong in so many ways. Goalposts shift so much they enter a kind of quantum state.

It's not yet midday in Canada and this person has posted almost 20 times already, so I'd say there is a lot more leisure time nowadays.

There are 24 questions and you have to get 75% or more.

People who have been on University Challenge are not getting all the questions right!

In all seriousness though,when I went to do my test there was a woman in the waiting area with two unhappy toddlers, trying very hard to cram for the test and keep them occupied. She was on the verge of tears and clearly very stressed. Not everyone is good at this sort of thing. It's a lot to learn!

If you accept the silly claim that the UK needs to make immigrants do unnecessary and time-consuming things to get ILR, why are you making us learn who invented the hovercraft then? Make us do a shift in a care home. It will save you money

10.03.2026 13:16 πŸ‘ 5 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

The questions aren't things politicians think you need to know to live in the UK.It's just hoop-jumping for hoop-jumpings sake. The difficult is the point. The problem is 1. the ILR application process is not without many hoops to jump through elsewhere and 2.just make us volunteer or something then

Britizen: Can you pass the "Life in the UK" test Try this British citizenship test. Answer 18 or more questions correctly to pass.

Feel free to do some practice tests and see how much being a proud Brit helps you lmao: britizen.uk/practice/lif...

Saying you'd pass the test because you're "a proud Brit" who has "served the country" immediately tells me you know nothing about the test.

Surely they’re going to use this to fundraise like crazy? β€œTimothee Chalamet says nobody likes opera. Let’s prove him wrong” emails and such

Those NYT snippets are broadly representative of AI writing imo, I don’t think they’ve tricked people into choosing AI there. It’s just that people prefer writing that makes their brain feel smooth.

Admitting the sad truth that a lot of people are happy with - even prefer! - AI writing isn’t a concession that AI writing is good. People have enjoyed bad writing for as long as we have had writing!
