"Village of the dammed" is absolutely top-notch.

They're just thick, John. It's why they're so angry.
Either that or it's deliberate. The US has consciously elected a villain - twice.
I'm not normally one for vagueposting, but we've just gone to press on one of the most exciting things I've worked on in quite a while. I can't wait for everyone to see it. Sorry, that really is vagueposting, isn't it.
All mixed up with footage of an unarmed ship, torpedoed and its occupants left to ground - an actual war crime.
A Curly Wurly and a bag of hope for the future, please.
Dire fucking Straits indeed, Mr Starmer.
Someone delete Capcut from Keir's laptop before he can do any more harm.
Intercutting real war footage, of people potentially being killed, with clips from Marvel films and Yu-Gi-Oh. These people are insane.
Nail a copy of this onto the desk of every MP. Burn the words "AI training isn’t learning" onto a baseball bat.
I love the Gradius games, so really enjoyed it!

Imagine being as happy as this guy. Amazing.
Meme triptych of Duke Leto and Paul Atreides Text: We must not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind. Why not? Because people are fucking idiots, Paul. They're just... incredibly stupid.
New (old) car podcast! A posh van from Japan. An entry-level executive class Rover advertised directly at middle-aged stalkers. It's all quality #content.
Can't believe they're rebooting Lovejoy.
No discussion of tech media can get past this basic traffic fact: in the AI world, Google and social no longer refer traffic, which means that the vast majority of readers just never find you in the first place. Analysis: growtika.com/blog/tech-m...

Please help me spread the word too if you don't mind?
1970s ad: GUESS WHO'S BUILDING NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS. The Shah of Iran is sitting on top of one of the largest reservoirs of oil in the world. Yet he's building two nuclear plants and planning two more to provide electricity for his country. He knows the oil is running out - and time with it. But he wouldn't build the plants now if he doubted their safety. He'd wait. As many Americans want to do. The Shah knows that nuclear energy is not only economical, it has enjoyed a remarkable 30-year safety record. A record that was good enough for the citizens of Plymouth, Massachusetts, too. They've approved their second nuclear plant by a vote of almost 4 to 1. Which shows you don't have to go as far as Iran for an endorsement of nuclear power. NUCLEAR ENERGY. TODAY'S ANSWER.
Fun ad from the 70s
This looks like a viral ad for David Fincher's Zodiac.
Love these.
Not fair. I want my own Gorey envelope.
A letter-sized envelope decorated with a black ink drawing of two seated men, facing each other. On the left, the man is perched on a cushioned, tasseled chair and footrest atop a spindly stem, labeled "Art." On the right, a man perched in the branch point of a spindly tree branch, labeled "Nature." Addressed to "Miss Sylvia Simons 3240 Lake Shore Dr Chicago 13 ILL" across the bottom. A red 5¢ airmail stamp with a plane in the upper right corner and the franking mark is from Boston, MA, dated May 8, 1948, and also includes a statement to "BUY U.S. SAVINGS BONDS ASK YOUR POSTMASTER."

Art—Nature, 1948
I've no doubt she'll turn the experience into a lucrative book deal. Scorn and hatred for the poor fleeing warzones; memoirs for the rich.
