A thing you're not seeing if you haven't checked Twitter in the last week is all the political betting markets (Polymarket, Kalshi) are actively caping for Cuomo and spreading Zohran conspiracies on there. Usually this would be a cause for some sort of regulatory oversight but that no longer exists.

can't believe outlets are running moral-panic headlines again based on flimsy anecdata from the *same* trade group (the national retailer federation) and sponsored by the *same* anti-theft company (sensormatic) that had to retract this *same* "study" just two years ago for being bogus.

A major weakness of the modern right is aesthetic tedium. So a key to taking back the narrative initiative is to art better. In ways that vault over the low bar of trad aesthetics. You have to be half-dead to not get bored by artistic production that endlessly panders to pre-1930s bourgeois tastes.

A guy did this 20 years ago. It’s called Temple OS and you can still download it!

Admittedly the guy who wrote it was schizophrenic (but also a computing genius) so there’s some very weird things in there.

The "They got the second most votes, so we should still take them very seriously and cater to what they want" takes r.e. Reform losing in #Caerphilly are extremely annoying, especially when you consider that Farage and his ilk have spent the last decade constantly saying the exact opposite.

LETS FUCKIN AVE IT. Went back to Squarepusher's juvenilia, enjoyed it very much, had some thoughts about retro-rave, speciation, the benefits or otherwise of distance and what have you.

Having slept on it, I think the even more shocking part of it is that Starmer is so desperate to unleash racist violence onto the British people that he's sided *against* the police for what must be the second or third time in his career (the other times were also in aid of racism)
This Tel Aviv stuff is just bananas. Our Government is literally going out of their way to make sure fascist football hooligans smash up an area in the UK and attack British citizens!

The NBC Asian America crew regularly covered so many of my films, comics, and books over the years. One of the very few big, mainstream venues to give a damn. This is a kick in the teeth.

yeah man, trans reporters, whom the ny times derogatorily calls "trans activists" so that normies won't listen to them, have been reporting on ADF activity in the UK since 2018.

bigotry in journalism makes you late to the story.
Really important NYT investigation finds that the ADF has been working with Reform, 'courting the party since at least 2024' and that the British arm 'orchestrated Mr Farage’s appearance in Congress, reaching out to ask if he would like to give evidence on censorship'

watching the UKs green party elect an actual unafraid leftist into leadership and see party membership double in under a month is once again endless proof that if you stand up for leftist causes and treat the electorate like adults, you’ll win people over easily

Sorry, what? There is no “race debate”. There is racism, there are racists.

This isn’t a legitimate political polemic, this is hate speech and hate crime.

Can we stop trying to wedge the bigotry of fragile white men in to public discourse? Doing so is hate-washing and we need to stop it.

There’s one about a minute from my house. It has, amongst other things a Baskin Robins.

I would buy from there, but I’ve seen the owner buying rat traps from the local store.
You might have heard of 'dark kitchens' when a row of sheds in a car park churn out food for Deliveroo. They're unpopular and low margin. So the next big thing in London food is 'host kitchens' where local pubs, restaurants and kebab shops cook for big brands. www.londoncentric.media/p/host-kitch...

Whether it’s Trump being fluffed by some doctor with no credibility, or Bryan Johnson’s claims of “having a biological age of 21” being unquestioningly reported, the press seem utterly unable to do any research before writing. These are not validated metrics. They are not real. It is meaningless.
