Good morning!
Here's the full set from my 2nd live performance last Friday at Folkestone Techno Social. For some reason, the video and audio I recorded doesn't sync up So I will need to cut them up individually and upload it that way (unless someone knows how to fix the drift?)

I couldn't help it.
I had to lay Facebook's stock price (blue) over top of Facebook's internal data of how much consumer sentiment (jagged line) had fallen off a cliff for Facebook which FTC had in its opening exhibits today.

If you receive the state pension, you're on welfare.
It is a discretionary payment which may be increased/reduced/removed at any moment.
There is no pension pot.
You are not receiving "your" money back.

Wow, it is hard to imagine the wealth of the wealthy. Hard to see how you can't but become divorced from the reality of the many.
the fact that we have "serious" convos about whether billionaires are okay suggests public consciousness that is totally divorced from the 1) actual scale of private wealth accumulation 2) its political implications. helpful data visualization:

The only scenarios in which I would not pay is if doing so offered additional prominence. But they seem far too sensible for that.

Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

Lots of people have asked me about the Met Office coming to Bluesky. So here we are! It’s a bit of a test feed at the moment but we plan to ramp it up. Do follow.
Our first post on Bluesky? It could only be one thing 👀
Are you missing the blue skies and lighter evenings this week? It’s been grey and overcast for many…
But will it be more of the same for the next 10 days?
