"Companies who have destroyed hundreds of thousands of lives and on average more than one suicide a day with practices that are banned in most other countries, cry like babies over having to pay back some of their obscene profits to the society they're blighting" would have been better

The new Vanity Fair editor sought to make his magazine less woke and some of his first moves were hiring Olivia Nuzzi, publishing an abstract nude of Nuzzi by a person now alleged to have made illegal recordings on her behalf, and putting only men in the Hollywood issue

Ok, but people still find ways to buy meth but we still don't sell it at Boots and let the Sinoloa Cartel advertise on football uniforms.

Today we’ll get latest net immigration figures - They’ll show immigration for work is plummeting.
Why is this not part of the discussion on Rachel Reeves balancing her books & stalled growth?
For every 100,000 drop in net immigration, the OBR adds £7bn to the deficit. #r4today

Hearing Rachel Reeves explain why it is so important to lift hundreds of thousands of kids out of poverty is a reminder of what a Labour government can do. It is also a reminder of how little of this sort of thing they have done and how much more needs to be done.

ANYWAY! If you never buy my books, if you only ever get books/ebooks from libraries, you are STILL supporting authors & I think you are grand.
If you are stealing from authors, just like tech bros stealing our work for hallucinating autocompletes, you're not hurting publishers. Just us. Own that.

It would be better if Alex was AI rather than just writing about it, because not understanding why people on a wage so low as to not be able to be classed as a living wage, while rent takes 50% of it, aren’t in the streets rejoicing is fucking embarrassing
Weird thing: the UK minimum wage has risen against inflation for years. It's now really high. Millions of people are earning more than they were as a direct result of this policy. And the impact on the vibes of the country is… entirely absent?
