I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

Randomly came into my head at work a couple of weeks ago and I just had to play it. Incredible work

Every year tens of thousands of children are caught in the middle of family court disputes as their parents fight over custody arrangements

But what happens when trust breaks down and the system meant to protect the children becomes part of the problem?

NYT: US Fertility Rates Drop to Another Record Low The fertility rate has been falling since 2007, in large part because of a plunge among teenagers

There are some clues in the age breakdown: The fertility rate for teenagers dropped by 7 percent from 2024’s figure, setting another record low for the group. Since 2007, the rate for teenagers is down by 72 percent, and since 1991, when teenage fertility rates were at a high, the rate is down by 81 percent.

Why I don't trust anyone a little too obsessed about falling fertility rates

I think most of see it as righteous indignation. Engaging the discourse has become tedious not just because of the lack of trust but the propensity for hyperbole, possibly due to character limit in certainly places 👀

I also struggle to see how actively finding, funding and abetting some of the most unhinged cranks fits with "normal old Brit lady takes". My parents are addicted to Facebook reels and they aren't half as fucked as that.

You know what, I knew it was going to be something insane the second I saw the handle.

They couldn't rig it on the day, even letting the Morroccan 'ball boys' get away with outrageous things, so the left it a few months. CAF really are no different to UEFA and FIFA after all.

Maybe we aren't such whiny bastards after all

One of my recent joker moments was when one guy asked if I could get my one year old to be quiet because he was having a zoom call in the cafe

Malaise sur CNEWS quand on évoque le génocide à Gaza. Manuel Bompard recadre Laurence Ferrari.

Great shout, she's done some tremendous reporting

The only other I can think of is Fergal Keane and I'm not aware of him doing anything with the BBC for a long while now

Slightly upset at being reminded of Omid Djalili's existence rn

Fratello, you need a VPN 😭

A screenshot of a post on X by an account called 'XFreeze', taking a TBIJ investigation out of context. Elon Musk reposted the post, replying 'Yeah'

This week, Elon Musk re-posted on X about an investigation we published into “wikilaundering” — paid-for editing on Wikipedia.

The post claimed our reporting found that Wikipedia was “corrupt to its core.”

That’s not what we reported... (1/2)

It isn't really a class system is it? It shares more similarity with a caste system tbh

You know what, I'm being a lazy bones. I'll search for it lol

May we have a link, please? This sounds like something that would help my brain

Good Lord this makes my skin crawl. The Onion don't miss

There's level's to that kind of deferred gratification

Well at least they learned their... No wait, nevermind

This was a similar reaction to mine having watched it. And going through the fucking Cass review again, god I despise politics on this fucking island

Extract from Giles Coren's piece in The Times, 'Giles and Kitty go to Antigua' 'And then I sit and stare at her, like the dippiest lover, not talking, transfixed by her beauty. Unable quite to drink it all in. Missing heartbeats at the way she gazes out at the sea through her long, curling lashes while slurping Coke through her pursed, plump little lips. And doing this I realise how being on holiday with my tiny daughter is the most insanely romantic holiday, in some ways even the sexiest holiday, that I’ve ever had. I laugh at everything she says. I hold her hand wherever we go. I want everyone to look at this beautiful creature I have all to myself. And because she is only three, they do, and are not revolted.'

Giles Coren is defending an Epstein associate! I can't believe it! The screenshot and link about a holiday with his 3yo daughter are unrelated www.thetimes.com/travel/desti...

How about making comments about someone elses race (and getting it wrong)? Wasn't long ago that we cancelled people for making shitty comments about BIPOC based on their race

@briandeer.com deserves so much credit tearing this nonsense apart and the eventual downfall of that hack Wakefield.
Whenever I see Brian's work getting a spotlight, it makes me happy

Oh! I thought it was "if you see AI, you mock AI". I see where I've been going wrong now!
