Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

Have you experienced some financial issues involving Nigerian princes?

People desperate to be laid but never will get laid getting people who probably do get laid laid off.

He's only two years older than Sting.

When he said he'd seen shit that'll turn you white, didn't realise he was referring to future O'Reilly.

Played out

Erm, Starmer is a politician.

Isn't this to do with hardware hitting physical limits in terms of what can actually be squeezed onto a circuit board? Which is why the likes of Nvidia switched tack and started grifting for, first crypto, and now AI data centres. The tech industry in general is in a state of mass denial.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

Yes, the humanities have a left wing "bias". It's inherent, and that's what makes them good.

The right take those subjects, and either attempt to shut them down or subvert them. "Centrists" are consistently inclined to take the latter view. See below.

Recalling Harris "debating" Peterson back in the day, naively thinking it was some amazing good vs bad showdown, only later to come to the realisation that they're both dreadful idiots.

Christopher Hitchens volte-face to supporting the Iraq invasion is the one that really sticks out for me.

Yup, it sounds like a place on the Scottish north east coast, somewhere along from Burghead, the Moray Firth/North Sea battering against it. Meanwhile up here in the west highlands, we have a place called Applecross, which definitely belongs somewhere in the home counties.

Wightman on land is like Paul Mason on economics. Ego before reality.

Andy Wightman became so obsessed with the land bit that he forgot humans were involved.

It's not fascist if it's Scottish #unicornfaeces

Btw I've been buying your publication in print regularly in good faith for my Dad, who struggles with all things online. No more. You are a bunch of cucks beholden to your parent company. Your "belief" in independence is nothing more than a marketing job.

"Advert"

Just what sort of independent Scotland do you envisage? One where a fringe group of fascist associators gets to buy front page ads? Get your house in order or get to fuck.

You realise no one gives a fuck about your headline when you've just run that "ad". Go fuck yourselves for all eternity.

As much as Team America was ultimately just a hand job for libertarians, at the same time it kind of got the desire for Hollywood A-listers to just shut the fuck up kind of spot on.

Srait of Hormuz jokes writing themselves.

And yes, I know snakes aren't actually slimy, so he's also helped to tar the reputation of actual snakes.

And of course he knew. There's 30+ years of Mandelson's slime to draw on. Spitting Image were portraying him as a literal snake in the mid 90's.

Starmer I've noticed loves to play the innocent bystander role, and has even convinced a few of the political commentary arse scrapers (e.g. Helen Lewis) that he's some sort of idealist, dismayed by politcal gamification. He's not, he's just another cynical self-preservationist cunt.

One of the greatest things that ever happened to me: travelling with my parents from Fort William to Euston circa 1992 and they just gave us a spare cabin for free because the steward didn't like to see a kid sleeping on the floor 😊

Oh I had a great big yay seeing him toppled as well, and it's not like I'm clued up on the nuances of Hungarian politics, so hopefully better times ahead. At the same time, I feel like I've seen this movie before.

Yes, this isn't being reported on enough. Magyar's background is shady to put it mildly. There's nothing approaching a multi-party political system in Hungary, and there's a genuine risk there that like has been replaced with like.

Like "they won a 400 seat majority because they one a 400 seat majority" is just circular reasoning.
