It always comes back to this for me; if AI was so good, such a disclosure would be a selling point. If AI was everything these slop jockeys said it was, they should be proud to let people know their game was AI made. But the proof is in the pudding, and they can't stand that people don't want it.

I don't want to be forced to disclose what I put in my burgers bc making them with rat meat is so much better for my bottom line as a small food business

Great chance to post my all-time favorite headline

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Labour's problem with big donors is they have nothing else. They waged war on their own membership and base so they have no subs and no volunteers anymore. All they have is big donors.

They understand exactly the fascist threat that we're up against. They have decided however that it's in the interests of their careers & bank balanaces to give up without a fight

Politicians on the centre-left and centre-right simply don't seem to understand they are in an existential battle for the future of British democracy.

It’s when the root lie - immigrants are bad, our culture is under threat, we are being invaded - is allowed first to take hold, that the way is opened for everything else that follows. The whole movement is based on a pack of risible lies that should have been confronted head on while we still could

The balaclava blackshirted thugs are a result of a decade of politicians, tabloids and the broadcast media telling racists they have "legitimate concerns." The normalisation of actual fascism rhetoric and action has led to this and is a far greater "legitimate concern" than any migrant on a boat.

Finally they came for the Daily Mail and my irony meter just packed up and left and I never heard from it again.

Daniel Thomas / Danny Tommo has today marched his private army of blackshorts to Daily Mail HQ to demand a new house for his mum within 48 hrs, after they doorstepped her for a feature on him. Apparently he plans to blockade them + cry at them until they do Bet those lads are glad of the balaclavas

If a man murders his wife the average sentence is 2-3 years If a wife murders her husband (usually after domestic abuse) the average sentence is 19 yrs Men are responsible for 90% of domestic abuse Maybe Just maybe women aren't the unstable moody ones 😒

In the future, Nigel Farage will be resigning every fifteen minutes

James O’Brien@mrjamesob.bsky.social

Surely he has to resign again to let the people of Clacton prejudge the resukt of the police investigation? It’s much more serious than the investigation he resigned over last time…

The difference between this and the Danny Dumbo Balaclava masked black-clad louts conduct is huge….yet the police are treating them very differently..

A pro-Palestine protester is arrested for holding a poster reading "l oppose genocide I support Palestine Action" Over 3,500 arrests have been made since Palestine Action was labeled a "terrorist organization" by the UK.

Balaclava-clad thugs on the streets of Dover is a natural consequence of the demonisation of immigrants. If you’ve ever advocated for controls on immigration as though immigration were inherently bad, you are part of this. Ed Miliband’s mug. Keir Starmer’s speech. All part of this.

Why has Trump been attacking unions and workers’ rights? He wants working people to feel helpless and divided. Trump and his billionaire backers realize that the collective power of a unified labor movement outweighs their own power. Know this: Workers outnumber the oligarchs.

Oh, honey . . . You place your children in the custody of priests, pastors, and youth pastors, a demographic proven most likely to molest children. You are *not* protecting and nurturing your children—you're endangering them. And shamelessly lying about Islam and feminism isn't going to change that.

Or a University of Cambridge inquiry into Orr's appointment following an undisclosed donation to the university by Peter Thiel in 2019. Instead expect a wall of silence and that all press questions will be redirected by the university to Orr's lawyers.

Now James Orr has stepped down as Reform UK's Head of Policy after C4's report, questions remain for Cambridge – where he is Associate Professor. Byline Times revealed serious concerns about his activities there months ago. We all know there won't now be 200+ articles on him and his life don't we?

When I ran the Fabian Society (2003-11) it was a reasonable working hypothesis that about 1% of inquiries about partnerships would be undercover post-lobbygate fishing expeditions to see which thinktanks were willing to say things about acccess or content that they should not

What really struck me watching Channel 4 investigation into Reform is that the wilful breaking of electoral law isn’t an accident - it’s by design At every turn it’s Reform - Orr, Dan Jukes - saying how to break the law Exactly why I’ve been banging on about weak election law for so long

Trump propagandist and right wing grifter Milo Yiannopoulos has been detained by ICE. Previously he called for “total immunity for ICE” in the aftermath of ICE brutality and also called for people to be deported on the spot without trials.

50 green groups write to Andy Burnham demanding he be clear that climate change is the cause of the current extreme heat crisis. Greenpeace, WWF, Friends of the Earth and others say "the British public deserves leadership that speaks honestly about the nature of the challenges the country faces"
