Famously upon the restoration of Charles II there was a parade held through London with prominent images of Dionysius; letting deposed Puritans know the boys were back in town, so to speak. I think we're gonna have to do that with Woke 2. Publicly cancel some prominent media men in the town square.
I cannot imagine Gearge W. Bush saying "Gog and Magog"
If AI hallucinates citations then it’s pretty obvious it can make other errors. The negligence is trusting it without scrupulously checking.

Press Association comment from Quakers in Britain This evening, for the second time in a year, the Metropolitan Police raided a Quaker Meeting House and arrested a number of young nonviolent activists who were meeting there on the grounds that they were conspiring to commit a criminal act. The room in Westminster Quaker Meeting House was let to Take Back Power to hold nonviolent direct action training. Quakers support the principle of nonviolent direct action, which aims to protest without harming people. Oliver Robertson, head of witness and worship for Quakers in Britain, said: “For Quakers, faith and action are inseparable. Peaceful protest, prayer and nonviolent action are integral parts of many Quakers' religious life. “Whilst we take the planning of criminal acts very seriously, we believe that this incident is a deliberate targeting of committed young people who want to make our country a more equitable place. This raid is part of a systematic stifling of dissent. “That this is the second time in a year that the police have raided our meeting house dramatically illuminates the broader trend in the UK of cracking down on those who disagree with the government. The right to protest is fundamental to our democracy. It's a key part of how people make their voices heard between elections.”
Statement from @quaker.org.uk about tonight's police raid on Westminster Meeting House. Guys, I don't think they're buying the Met's line about it all being a cover for plotting "mass shoplifting"
Wars are extremely hard things to justify. It is intrinsic to what they are that they tend to death, destruction, and misery. Given this and some knowledge of history, one's default attitude towards powerful people purporting to do the world some great benefit by war should be extreme scepticism.
Were you at the laundry?
this really seems bad.

I’ve worked abroad my whole adult life and fairness, consistency, ability to bring family, straightforward path to permanent residency / citizenship are deal breakers. If the UK wants high skilled white collar workers then these all matter a lot
What are these from?
A white pawn on D7 forks the black king and black rook, protected by a white rook on D1. Black has roughly even pieces with white, but the pawn move from D6 to D7 has opened up an attack on black's queen from the white queen on F6. The white queen on F6 blocks the black king on e8 from moving, meaning that the black king is checkmated. Meanwhile white is simultaneously threatening black's king, queen, and rook.
Extremely satisfied with this midgame checkmate.
Many of the scientists Jeffrey Epstein courted were already well-established and well-funded. So why didn’t they all just say no? Science talked with three who did just that.
Here’s how Epstein approached them, and why they refused to have anything to do with him. ⬇️ https://scim.ag/40qbXnv
they're already considering pilfering air defense from bases elsewhere in the world & it hasn't even been a week. i'm sure that'll be appreciated by countries who thought the US was defending them
god fucking dammit
Yeeesssss!!!! (This will always be the defining image for me of the “evidence” against Columbia students)
Listening to a talk where they’re explaining various problems with AI transparency and how AI companies will cook their score cards and I just never stop hating how capitalism makes it so much harder to know things like “is this powerful emerging technology safe?!” #SPSP2026
Lmao
tomorrow's article is a banger ngl
What a result!! Huge congratulations to the amazing Hannah Spencer - everyone in Gorton and Denton has just made history. This result shows @greenparty.org.uk can win anywhere, that the politics of hope can win over the politics of hate & there is no longer any such thing as a Labour safe seat 💚
People are always like what’s something you miss from the past and one of mine is antitrust laws
I honestly don't think suburban and country folk have a clear picture of how this would go either. Good luck driving your gas powered car 5 miles to town when the supply lines fall.
thanks!
some weapons are designed for self defense, capture, nonlethal crowd control, use against animals, Ren faires... others are designed for battlefields. Doesn't much matter who the weapon is legally available to, weapons have different designs and purposes.

This is clearly blatantly intentional voter suppression and any claim otherwise is completely unserious
this is why the whole “oh, suffering creates great art” thing is bullshit
you know what’s conducive to art? a roof over your head and food on the table
you know what isn’t? stressing out over where the fuck the rent money is going to come from
