For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting
Thanks, yeah anything with clips involved I think it's good to get tried and tested ones, because sometimes clips don't stand up to use.
I'm considering these because I may move to wearing a lot of button-up shirts too; I have short legs too so I reckon I'll have to do the same.
Anyway I hadn't heard anyone talking about this, so I guess I'm gonna talk about it. Spread the word if you're thinking about doing an nsfw KS project, Stripe apparently might pull your funding at literally any step of the process, with zero warning!
The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

We're just getting started.
Time to lower bills. And tax billionaires.

lmao, the irony
1. London-Style Buses The boringly-named Bus Services (No. 2) Bill became law on Monday night (27th October), enabling local transport authorities to implement franchising schemes for bus services in England – potentially reversing the decades-old deregulation of buses which opponents say has contributed to spiralling prices and worsening, reduced services while transport firms pay millions to shareholders. But it will also end the (surprisingly recent) Conservative ban on councils setting up their own bus companies to directly compete with private firms. Buses are the most frequently used form of public transport and are relied on by millions of people – disproportionately lower-income workers, young people, retirees and more. Greater Manchester took up the opportunity of regulating buses by setting up the ‘Bee Network’, but the legal framework mayor Andy Burnham had to use to do it took years to utilise, and faced relentless challenge from transport firms. The new process is set to massively streamline it. This bill won’t make the front pages, but if councils take up the opportunity, it could revolutionise this vital form of transport in England. Cat Hobbs, director of pro-public ownership campaign We Own It, told Byline Times: “After 40 years of bus deregulation and privatisation, it’s fantastic that this government is making it easier to take back control of our buses,” though she also called for the ambition to be matched with extra funding to help make this a success. Hobbs added: “It’s excellent news that the absurd ideological ban on new publicly owned bus companies, introduced under the last government, has now been reversed. Publicly owned bus companies like Lothian Buses and Reading Buses consistently win awards for their brilliant services.” Transport for London-style transport in Cornwall, Leeds, and Newcastle, here we come?
This one is a big deal, in my view. Potentially marks an end to Thatcher-era deregulation of the buses across England. And it's the law as of last night: bylinetimes.com/2025/10/28/a...
Stargate poster
Roland Emmerich's Stargate was released 31 years ago today.
This film spawned an entire TV universe, from 1997 to 2011, and a continuation or reboot wouldn't be surprising in the next few years.
And such an iconic poster.
New: a $60 mod to Meta's Ray-Ban glasses disables the privacy LED light. This is supposed to light when people are filming with the glasses. We bought the mod, verified it works. Now you can never be sure whether someone wearing Meta Ray-Bans is filming you or not

The Met Police asking 'terrorists' to be responsible and not do 'terrorism' in London on Saturday because they're very busy underlines the absurdity of the proscription.

Apparently Google is "applying AI to science and the environment". "Applying to" is an interestingly value-free little linguistic flourish. One can apply a hammer to the side of someone's head, for example.
My favourite thing about JK Rowling claiming she lived through poverty is the state provided her with a one-bedroom flat which she always refers to as “a glorified bedsit”. The “glorified” bit is: a separate bedroom and living room.
Ukraine and Moldova have completed the screening phase for joining the EU. They’re now waiting to hear from the EU Commission about what they need to focus on during access negotiations.
The process is, as expected, currently being held up by Hungary.
Five brown TfL double-decker buses displaying “Bakerloop” signage - parked in a row.
The Bakerloop is a brand-new express bus service, linking Waterloo, Lewisham and key stops in between. It’s a major upgrade for public transport in South East London.
It’s not too late to try BL1 services free during the launch week, until Sunday 5 October.
Just watched the last ep of S3 Strange New Worlds and, well, it felt more like I was watching some Doctor Who. I want the science back in my science fiction please.

Cis peeps, please write to your MPs about this absolute bollocks.
Appeasing weirdo internet forums to push for widespread oppression isn’t something the health secretary should consider his job. Shit’s inappropriate and is veering heavily to segregation.

Fuel shortages are sweeping across Russia. Some stations have been without petrol for two weeks. And this isn’t just a regional issue - there’s even rationing in the suburbs of Moscow.
Feels like we might be moving towards a tipping point.
