As someone with a morbid fascination with air crash investigations, I would definitely watch NTSB or its spinoffs. Also in the market for anything anti-corruption at the moment - can't think why!
Can we all please just agree not to subcontract parenting to a bullshit machine?

New Swingometer! With the dust settling after the seismic Green victory two weeks ago, I take a look at the implications of this historic by-election for the local and devolved elections now less than two months away: open.substack.com/pub/swingome...
NBC News poll Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.
Truly a perfect news alert
Good.
a lot of critiques in aughts alleged that pentagon was influencing video games and in truth the relationship seems to be the other way around

This is crucial to Trump's foreign policy - from the use of the MOAB in the 1st term, to the torpedoing of an Iranian warship, its about being the first to use military tech and cross lines previous administrations wouldn't, all in the name of making neocon fantasies of violent spectacle come true.
But you mustn't call them racist, apparently...

My piece in @TheCriticMag offering a prudential case against Operation Epic Fury. As ever, in wars there are many unknowns. We argue in the dark. That is also why the threshold for military action should be high, especially action to topple states.

A party that is resolutely anti-bourgeois while being staffed and supported by the bourgeoisie is an intriguing and inevitably impossible strategy.
Anyway good luck attracting those Reform voters who hate you.
'The voters have spoken, and now we must stereotype wildly inaccurately'!
A lot of my academic focuses on public attitudes about foreign policy and the use of force. The just initiated bombing of Iran lacks many of the components that build and sustain domestic support for military action.

I went down this same route six months or so ago. Can’t remember now which straw broke the camel’s back, but it reached the point of feeling that if Starmer and his cohort want to keep punching the things I believe in, I may as well punch back.

Yes! Been thinking about this one a lot today - Labour not averse to a bit of sectarian campaigning.
This also captures the response of the Labour Party itself this evening, which has essentially been:
Labour have alienated the voters they had on the left, and failed to win over any of the voters they have courted on the right. Now their core appeal is all but gone and ever growing numbers of voters have exit options on the left, right and in the centre.
Welcome to the Valley of Electoral Death.
“Rather than make peace with an urban voting base of younger graduates in professional jobs, poorer service sector workers and minority ethnic communities, Labour seems to have been pining for the demographic that voted for it in the 1970s – older, manual workers in small towns.”
Who could have predicted this?!
True!
I first thought "there aren't words" when I first saw this story. but there are
I can't deny that I'm also enjoying how angry Labour party officials (especially McSweeney's acolytes) are going to be - sure, they may dislike the Tories and Reform, but in my experience they really despise the Greens.
