I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time.

Impressive win for Lab - well ahead of the polling. Nearly didn’t need second round. Disappointing for Reform and Greens. Restore performance remarkable for a party that’s just months old - might have harmed Reform? But Lab would have won comfortably even without them.

Think our basic rights are safe? In the age of oligarchs and corporate lobbying, think again | George Monbiot
The global assault on our freedoms is coming ever closer to home. Just look at the sinister prosecution of UK lawyer Rajiv Menon, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Jason is the youngest Black professor in Cambridge’s history. Rightwing newspapers are trying to smear him with fake accusations of plagiarism. We can't let them. Stand up to their hate and division by adding your name. goodlawproject.org/s/3ec4c0

The stranglehold the rightwing and far right have on our politics is absurd. Not a single policy or idea that benefits the country. A wild aversion to tax, immigration, NetZero, the EU.. trapping us in a dismal dead-end, unable to make progress for fear of the DailyMail demographic losing its shit.
This is sublimely simple, spead the idea📣
The Ukrainian Review@theukrainianreview.bsky.social · last wk.📲 Lene Rachel Andersen: Danish Author, Economist, argues we must move beyond telling students what to think and instead give them the tools to unmask agendas, fact-check narratives, and find out who truly benefits from the news they consume.

This week's column explains how successive Environment Secretaries in the UK have been actively facilitating ecocide on behalf of industrial lobbyists. Charged with protecting the living world, one after another has been working for the enemy. This has to change.🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Besieged by lobbyists, will UK ministers protect our ecosystems? No, they’ll chicken out | George Monbiot
Industrial poultry farming is killing our rivers. But rather than stop it, the government has been facilitating it. Will Andy Burnham end this ecocide, asks Guardian columnist George Monbiot
theguardian.com
It's a grim reflection of the media's priorities that there's been seldom a word about who the new Environment Secretary is (Angela Eagle, by the way, who is surely an improvement on the dismal Emma Reynolds). The post should be up there with Home, Foreign and Defence. It's central to our wellbeing.

'Less than human': how unhoused people in Atlanta are being treated during the World Cup – video
“This is what happens when you apply these incredibly violent economic forces to these cities … it's happened at every World Cup I've been to,” explains our chief sports writer, Barney Ronay.

Bees are disappearing, and our food supply is beginning to collapse. Plants and animals are vanishing, and life is becoming a desert plain. But if humans were to disappear, nature would slowly heal. Rivers would flow more cleanly, forests would grow again, and wildlife would reclaim the Earth.
The arguments we’re having today aren’t new. In fact, we were having many of the same ones more than 150 years ago during Reconstruction. I recently sat down with Malcolm Gladwell to reflect on this pivotal time in our nation’s history, and the work that remains. Check out our conversation:

Nigel Farage is just one strand in the tangle of rightwing politicians and crypto investors | John Harris
These financiers want to remodel the UK into a form that suits them – one that could threaten to erode the barriers between crime and business, says Guardian columnist John Harris

Nigel Farage has resigned from a job he couldn’t be bothered to do because he was caught with his hand in the till. Now expects his boss to hire him again to clear his name.
While the UK is, yet again, in the thralls of Farage's toxic politics and ego, immigrants all around the country continue to do what we always do: be your neighbours, colleagues, doctors, cleaners; be the carers of your parents and sick; your bin men. In short: help the UK tick every day.
Is there anything in Erksine May about having a bin on your head
