my big internet pet peeve is how βlobotomyβ is used as a kinda jokey thing nowadays
it was a horrific procedure done against the will of most victims that effectively removed the part of the brain that desired anything
the closest thing i can think of to removing someoneβs soul, and itβs a meme

The reason is that the Greater Manchester police are very friendly with multiple of these far right streamers who brag about providing them with intelligence. It's been a local scandal lately with one of them being outer as a sex offender and the police saying he was always helpful to them.

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"
counterpoint!
the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

When someone says βScientists do not want you to knowβ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They canβt shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

American Footballβs True Confessions
When an album they'd made in college became an unlikely inspiration to generations of young rock bands, American Football got back together and hit the roadβbut can the reluctant Midwest-emo heroes su...
i'm reading The American Football Article, and as much as it's fucking depressing and an insight into what the very specific kind of celebrity does to people, the big thing i'm taking away from this is how cool it must've been to be able to Go Do Music Things before the age of 20.

yes we'd lose a lot of GPs who just make up bullshit about HRT, but then maybe I'd actually be allowed it on the NHS instead of having to buy fucking crypto and smuggle it

Sasha has been the cool, calm, and collected rock of Yuppie Supper since we began, from jamming to procrastinate on our degrees to writing and recording for two EPs whilst being everywhere all the time. (1/3)

the speeds are already very different.
the gap between F1 and F2 is already bigger than between F2 and FRECA. F2 needs to be faster (and less of a car lottery) to be a better training ground for F1.

It's incredible how it was revealed that the anti-trans push over the past decade was concocted in no small part by a literal PEDOPHILE CONSPIRACY and the reaction of transphobic lawmakers, journalists, academics has been a shrug and a "well, we gotta
