‘Destiny’ Lives: All Content To Be Unvaulted And Future Games Planned
Just months after the decision to end Destiny 2 updates and seemingly shelve the IP, Bungie has made a blockbuster announcement that Destiny will live on.

Lots of talk of growth ahead of the Budget, as if it were a baroque puzzle. Our problem is basic. It's that we no longer support the things which facilitate growth: Europe, immigration, higher education, tax simplification, policy stability. These are all choices and could stop making them anytime.
I think it should be a source of deep embarrassment – and perhaps even shame – that Rishi Sunak has spoken out on this before Andy Burnham has.
Sunder Katwala (sundersays)@sundersays.bsky.social · 2w agoFormer PM Rishi Sunak in the Sunday Times challenges the rise of ethno-nationalism in British politics, as an argument within the right about Britishness being about ancestry, DNA and ethnicity www.thetimes.com/article/e89d...
"Enforcing soldier masculinity through mandatory morning-boner checks" is the sort of thing an unsubtle satirist might make up about Russia.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 3w agoNEWS: The Pentagon has announced mandatory low-testosterone screenings for male troops 30 and older, including screening for symptoms such as “reduced libido, loss of spontaneous morning erections, erectile dysfunction,” and other symptoms.
I’ve worn a grubby RNLI cap for decades. I sound London, but I was born in Truro and I was a basically feral (Gen X) kid wandering the coast path with a dog until sunset for a lot of my early life. The lifeboats are in the fabric like trawlers and farms and pasties and fish and chips.
“Almost no one in politics has stood up and called this what it plainly is: an organised group of criminals shutting down critical national infrastructure and menacing charity workers and journalists in the process.”
John Oxley@joxley.jmoxley.co.uk · 4w ago🚨 NEW BLOGPOST 🚨 The last week has seen multiple incidents of masked mobs trying to subvert the power of the state. Their actions have been illegal and unpleasant. But the treatment has been weak. The police haven't dealt with it, and neither has govt. open.substack.com/pub/joxleywr...
If you think closing an RNLI station is done by people with "legitimate concerns" you really need to give your head a wobble. It's an unforgivable act of thuggery.
If an Irish newspaper doesn’t run a “Senior Orangeman Calls For A United Ireland” headline, then the newspapers are dead.

Most bath times this guy saves the day. Over the years he’s rescued dinosaurs, superheroes and sea creatures. Our kids are pretty clear this is unambiguously and definitively one of the good guys. I think the vast majority of grown ups would agree with them.
I think the worst part of Labour's response to the fascist mobilisation is Andy Burnham's absence. He's the most popular politician in the country, with social media reach and actual powers of persuasion, and he's saying nothing in public. He can actually be of use here but he's choosing not to

I can’t *believe* we had to, still have to, listen to all that talk about how competent and ruthless Shabana Mahmood is, and then we get a day like today and we don’t have a Home Secretary
I simply do not understand what's going on in Labour that renders its leaders incapable of finding a TV camera and speaking out against street violence. Even if you assume they agree about immigration, violence is wrong, unpopular AND against the interests of any even vaguely left wing govt.
Damning silence from Labour on their Napoleon III exhumation policy
At the lunch, after they order the oysters, the american he meets 'from Wyoming' explains that he runs "an American family office", and that he hasn't "been able to donate directly". That he is not a permissible donor is plain to see.
