Strongly suspect that Truss will become the first PM in history to fully melt her brain on Twitter. Odds are also good she’ll turn up shitfaced to the Cenotaph before trying to start fights with all the other former PMs.
"Of all the books I have ever reviewed that purported to offer a serious thesis, this is without question the most deranged."

I know it's not an original thought but fucking hell, what an orator.
Obama: "That well-known evil empire Canada. That historical adversary of ours. Canada! *laughs* It's your neighbor. It's a few minutes' drive over the bridge! These are the people who gave us Martin Short and maple syrup. They are the nicest people! And someone we've gotten them so mad."
I'm not being funny but this is such a good story it should be a film or series ( @jonathanfreedland.bsky.social ) Heroism, spies, betrayal. It has everything.

I take it this wasn't the bit you helped write, @jasonhazeley.bsky.social ?
I'd seen this advert, and the penny hasn't dropped about the racial framing. It's absolutely wild that no one in the production of this picked it up. (Maybe they were all middle class white people like me?)
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

I'm not expert - and I'll defer to the likes of @dankaszeta.bsky.social - but my understanding of Christianity is that empathy is at the very core of being a good Christian? Or, indeed, a good human.

Man, imagine advertising to the world that you're remotely impressed by Musk's bullshit STILL
do think there's a danger of looking at extremely cool shit like a car driving upside down then doing a kickflip before landing, and convincing yourself it's actually lame because the guy funding it is a white supremacist
I've literally never worked anywhere that doesn't supply milk.
I have worked at my company for more than 3 years. Despite drinking around 4 cups of coffee during the workday I have never bought a single drop of milk. I simply alternate my stealing from different labelled milks in the breakout room, especially directors.

I mean it’s not a vetting problem, is it? It’s that it’s a racist party, run by racists, with racist policies, for the benefit of racists. The fact that it turns out to be full of racists is not a glitch
