No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

Most housing benefit goes to private landlords. A big chunk of universal credit subsidises underpayed workers. The so-called welfare bill could be seriously reduced by fixing these underlying issues, not cutting actual welfare.

So one of the Reform officials who stepped down is a Cambridge academic pretending to be someone he most clearly is not? This will no doubt be the focus of the right-wing press for weeks to come - right?

Commentary: Anyone who enters their dog in a “Worlds ugliest dog” contest should not be allowed to own a dog. (I couldn’t find a stand alone link to the video so have included a screen grab instead)

There's enough drivers on the UK's roads. It should be 'one out, one in'. Maximum driving age of 75. As the OAPs get pruned off the top, new drivers are let in. Numbers remain just about manageable. Public transport & cycling get boosted. Helps carbon targets. Sanity maintained.

The TM on my train to Plymouth has announced it will not now stop at Totnes. The engines are overheating (hot day and OLE problems near PAD) so if they stop at Totnes they won’t get up Rattery bank outside the station.
