Finished Daniel Warren Johnson's Transformers comic run; had some pacing issues in my opinion but on the whole I loved it

Lots of heartfelt moments (he nailed Optimus Prime's character) and phenomenal art; a great run for people wanting to get into Transformers comics

8.5/10

Keir Starmer is a political Moses

Like parting the sea, he manages to push away left wing and right wing voters at the same time to leave a barren nothingness in the middle

I can't look at the niche military/geopolitics subreddit I like since it now requires age verification (Online Safety Act)

And Reddit is blocking my VPN from connecting πŸ™ƒ

"Above two Ravens,
Messengers of the wise One eyed God,
Who rules this land,
Of the strong and the great,
And tall,
Beautiful,
Behold this thy land,
Open and free,
This thy home of the brave"

The UK's Technology Secretary thinks that if you're against giving companies your ID to listen to music, then you support pedophiles

Frankly the UK Online Safety Act is an absolutely repulsive level of government overreach, all because some parents are too lazy and stupid to see what their kids are looking up online for themselves

Keir Starmer is right in always mentioning how his father was a toolmakerβ€”his father made Keir Starmer after all

I'm not a Trotskyist (obviously) but I felt so bad for the poor fools standing outside my university with nobody buying their newspaper, that I ended up buying a copy

Frantz Fanon's work is quite interesting to read, especially from a Nietzchean perspective

Such a shame he died so young
