Incorrect, Zack. In-fucking-correct.

I think there’s of course a strong argument for people being rehabilitated after offending, but like… a public-facing role in a political party is not the right environment for that

*ringing a bell in the town square* MEAN WOKES are calling the man we protected for decades a wife beating paedophile! It's true, but saying it is horrid!!

There’s different levels of diss at play here, ‘cause she’s essentially put a neo-Nazi in the same bracket as Gullis.

It's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.

Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

Seriously, that’s the thinking deficit this technology has caused - if it disappeared tomorrow, the people who are ant-AI *WOULD* get through an entire workday, because WE ALREADY DON’T USE IT.

What a pity ITV haven't recommissioned another series of You Bet!

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

OH NO someone in the group text was like “and chatGPT isn't even the best platform for creative writing” and immediately got hit with HOW DO YOU KNOW 👀👀👀👀

Someone in my writing group who hasn't said anything for months submitted 100 new pages over the weekend and said he has started “working with a collaborator” and after exactly two comments on his pages he let it slip it's ChatGPT. This is gonna be a bloodbath.

“I could have a bowel movement behind a sheet at a dinner party… and nobody would know” Yeah, I think you’d stand out quite severely mate. “What are you doing behind that sh… oh good LORD, O’Mara, AGAIN?!”

We’re doing an /r/indieheads AMA this Friday at 11AM Eastern. Ask us about dogs, Antarctica, music supervision, or our new record, The New World. Nothing is too large or small. You can already ask questions now, but we’ll be answering them live on Friday. www.reddit.com/r/indieheads...

I am taking satisfaction in the fact that she gave a hot water bottle a one star review because it leaked and she got a wet bed. 😂

Turn a film into a film about shitting yourself by adding a letter: Logan's Runs

Bluesky is a "liberal bubble" because fascist chuds can't get traction without algorithmic assistance and because people here trained themselves to block "debate me" trybois the instant they roll up

The Verge@theverge.com · 2d ago

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

I’ve seen two entirely unrelated people post videos of the sky in the last five minutes, going “Oh yeah perfectly normal plane trails, sure” and fuck me I’m too tired to see chemtrail noncery making a comeback.

I’m almost kinda excited to see how badly he ruins the earth on which he literally stands.

"he took no prisoners"

Leo Enright@ollopa11.bsky.social · 2d ago

I am saddened by the tone of commentary in this place about my former BBC colleague. The level of vitriol seems more suited to the other place. I worked with Rod at the Today programme. He took no prisoners, but he was witty and personally capable of genuine warmth. My sympathy to his family.

BBC South East just described Trainspotting as a film about "young men navigating life in Edinburgh". 👀

The Singing Bricklayer. Eric Morecambe claimed to have once knocked on Whitfield's door during a summer season to find an orgy in full swing. Whitfield invited Morecambe to join in. Eric replied "No thanks, I've already given".

Westengland@westengland.bsky.social · 2d ago

David Whitfield (who else), legend has it, did manage to 'get a shag', as the saying goes, on live TV. Could be one of the many stories about DW's compulsive copulating but one that should be true if only to find out how he managed it.

Canterbury's VERY feminist MP: don't judge wife beaters by the fact they have police records for wife beating; maybe they're delightful in person!

She's a moral and cognitive vacuum

Meta glasses should be proscription lenses.

I grew up listening to Jimmy’s Cricket Team and there were a few sketches I could quite verbatim, not to mention how much I loved him turning up on tv reading his letters from his Mammy. Wonderful, silly, and wholesome stuff.
