you can't be serious. This reads Meta/Facebook/Insta is looking to grant itself the rights to scrape websites across the open web - and train Meta's AI - if a company after Oct 30, 2026 uses Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp or other Meta services. So every biz. Read that again. Outrageous. 1/5

I also did not know who Harry Kane was, and the ai summary left me with more questions

Rob's story doesn't add up, what's he spending that money on... 750 quid a month on his car for a 16 mile journey to work? Fuck off! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

[Skee-Lo voice] I wish I was a little bit meeker, I wish that I was beaker, I wish I was a high pitched, terrified shrieker

So London's Batman isn't on Bluesky? Saw a feature about him on a politics programme. He was giving away free fuel recently, then he gave people free umbrellas during the storm over the weekend. www.instagram.com/reel/Deo2zk0...

Now let’s learn from Brazil. The Right sabotaged the elections, interfered with transportation, used AI to makeup shit. They still lost. People power. Power to the people. #brasil

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who spared a thought for my country today, who amplified information about the coup d’état attempt, and worried about Brazil’s democratic future—the world’s democratic future. We won! Women won! The Amazon won! Young people won! Democracy won! Hope won!

Well this is eleventy-million kinds of Fucked Up. @latimes.com (who once contracted with me as a freelance reviewer and whom I struggled to get paid by) asserts that *merely reading its website* constitutes a permanent waiver of your right to sue it under *any circumstances*.

The Guardian: "Gaza's suffering has become campaign fodder. Palestinians fear the worst from Israel election." As politicians and pundits talk and talk, the displaced Gazans struggle with famine and constant attacks. They rely on donations. Please give to my dear friend. No amount is too small. 🙏

Lula calling it a comeback (Sorry)

For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

People will say it’s bad that Mayer couldn’t answer this herself, and they’re right. They’ll say it’s bad she asked AI, and they’re right. But I am here to say that it’s bad that she looked at this wack ass output and called it “perfect”

While falling off a ladder. Just how good is the hospital food in Brazil?

Bigots descended on Herne Bay, Kent, England today with chants of 'Save our nation - remigration' 'End the invasion -remigration'. Most shockingly they chanted 'England for the white man'. These are white supremacists not 'concerned citizens'. Britain you've a serious problem, sort it out NOW!

Managed to catch the Richard Dadd exhibition at the Royal Academy before it closes tomorrow. Fascinating. ‘The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke’. A mesmerising, terrifying, and glorious palimpsest.

Trump said he had to takeover Greenland to keep China and Russia out. And then he snuck Russia onto the North Slope. Literally just ... inviting them in. www.ft.com/content/e9cf...

Now on to Chelsea vs Spurs.

Just off a small road opposite a small church in a small town in Belgium, there are the graves of 3.5k men who died in WWI. My great grandfather, a Dubliner, is among them. I don’t give a fuck about poppy symbolism. I worry that we’re forgetting our history, and are headed back down a dark road.

Oh hell yes!

*Goes to play Party Fears Two*

Would have also worked with Flash Gordon (1980)

Any excuse to post this monster of a performance. As one of the comments put it, imagine hearing the best live performance you'll ever hear in your life, before you've even started school... www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ul7...

Macy Gray making her second appearance of the night #DiscoDuck #notTOTP

Of course, nowadays you'd need a Reform-sized bung to be able to afford Sylvester's wardrobe changes #notTOTP

Early appearance from Garron Noone there on #TOTP1976 #TOTP

So many "Fuck Frank Farian" posts, so little time to like them all #notTOTP

All together now. Fuck Frank Farian. #NotTOTP #TOTP

"I find your tone very antagonistic" #TOTP #TOTP1976

Quo’s drummer turned up at the first night of play I was with on the Isle of Man. He was quite short and flanked by two leggy blondes, like Derek Smalls with two of Young Mr Grace’s secretaries #totp

Early appearance from Garron Noone there on #TOTP1976 #TOTP

The Cure there, with one of the greatest tracks of all time, at Number 29. 29! The record-buying public are fucking idiots. #TOTP

Just think, they'd already put out It's A Sin and What Have I Done To Deserve This, and still had Always On My Mind and Heart to come. Just a ridiculous string of quality singles. #TOTP

All stand for the Pets and the majestic Rent. You too, Neil #TOTP

Fair play, singing "boom boom, aka laka laka boom, boom boom, aka laka laka boom boom" like they really mean it #TOTP

Was this written by AI? #TOTP

Even in my "none-more-goth" days I just didn't rate the Bauhaus cover of Ziggy. I knew people, REAL PEOPLE, who thought this was better than the original. #TOTP

"Keep slumming it as indie Kylie?! Fuck that!" #TOTP

And to think kids, the band is now back together so once again you can relive the joys of, er, what's this Oasis one called again?! #TOTP

"🎼Now I know why you wanna hate me🎵" Yeah, because you're Fred Durst, obvious really #TOTP
