It's like he imagined Colonialism, but backwards, and also imaginary.

There's the lads from the Shire off on a jolly ol adventure..

British Colonial Troops off to 'Civilise' the world..

"That's a really insightful observation"

Indeed a chirpy aggreable Ai is not going to challenge any terrible views.

There's a YouTuber I used to follow who was doing his own research with Grok on British immigration, he basically forced it to give him answers that aligned with his views.

"went bankrupt" makes it sound unintentional.

That's some gold-plated nonsense from Martin.

They can't take responsibility for anything.

Well at least you get low-low prices right?.. right?!

They hate Unions.
They actively fire people who try to form them, so I reckon moving to legislate for protection for Unions should be a priority.

They have deep pockets to resist this or course and have courted and captured governments.

Dangerous times.

Eldest Kid just burnt his house down in Minecraft.. apparently built a wooden chimney.

"I learned a valuable lesson" 😄

Seems like a rite of passage on Minecraft.

It's an old tweet, but I'm sure his views won't have changed.

Hi, we're Silicon Valley- you probably recognize us from classic inventions like 'Chatbot That Drives You Crazy', 'The App That Gives You An Eating Disorder', 'A Bus, Except Worse', and 'Doorbell That Reports Directly to the NSA'

I'm not sure that's even bad value given the price of buses and cost of drivers.

Maintaining public buses for this use would be tremendously expensive.

It's quite difficult to get off them, as they've thoroughly abused their dominant position to establish monopolies.

Acquiring WhatsApp, Instagram, etc

It seems like Federal antitrust laws evaporated after the Microsoft case.

Heavy fruits would come in handy.

If perchance you drop a coin in your cars 12v socket, do not reach a finger in to extract it.

Public safety announcement for those who do things before thinking.

Whatever happened to monopoly laws and legislated breakup of companies.

I guess they fixed it so that no longer happens..

Tom @photaculous.bsky.social · 1d

I'm not surprised they've pivoted to blaming "legal" immigration now also. Very transparent.

I'm not sure how they expect to argue how this wasn't totally in their power to control, but they'll pretend it's all a shock to them.

Quite bizzare how they seem to think this will work out favourably.

Tom @photaculous.bsky.social · 1d

I found they are censoring bad language, even very mild phrases.

I can't blame generation rent for the horrible situation they are in.

I only just barely escaped it myself.
Landlordism is the Greatest legitimised scam of all, disgusting.

Loved those..
Always liked liquorice.

Bit of a surprise then to hear about liquorice toxicity!

Eek.. close

A blue state atmospheric test would be high on his wishlist.

The potential for disruption or destruction of sensitive modern technology infrastructure is enormous.

Tom @photaculous.bsky.social · 3d

This was enormously predictable.
And there's no way he will settle for an underground test..

The NPT is effectively dead, and I expect the next thing we may see is an atmospheric nuclear test by the US or Russia to assert dominance.

Crazy times.
