Bibi has ruled Israel like some savage king.

Here's a fact to brighten your day:

Gary Oldman is younger than Gary Numan.

Just a sliver of moon in Manchester tonight…

They say that Anaximander (in the 6th century BCE) drew the first ever map of the world. It wasn't very good. It doesn't even have Stockport on it.

Happy 430th Birthday René Descartes. The Father of Modern Philosophy. Here is a never-before-seen photo of him, recently unearthed by archivists, taken in preparation for this very day, back in 1640. (He looks pleased with himself because he’s just finished a first draft of the Meditations).

The disdain with which Parfit sometimes dismisses critics is stunning. On p.354 he gets rid of one objection by saying: “This view is too implausible to be worth discussing”.

What a great line. I intend to use it next time I’m having an argument with my wife. I’ll let you know how that goes…

The sun is out and the tulips are in bloom. 😄🤩

That's right....and so dreadfully wrong

Diane Abbott just skewered Starmer. Paraphrasing:

“Peter Mandelson has a history. It’s not a question about why you weren’t told. It’s a question about why didn’t you ask?”.

This is what hope looks like.

Local elections are in 17 days.

Register to vote before MIDNIGHT TONIGHT and let's make hope normal again:

For those who missed it: this was the moment The Strokes ensured they’ll never be invited back to Coachella again! I'm so proud of them

This is unfortunate because if you think the Democrats are too hostile to Israel there is actually something wrong with you.

This seems like a hundred years ago now. A part of my life I enjoyed until I didn’t.

I'm old enough to remember when this was called election interference.

A tweet criticizing JD Vance for telling the Pope to stay out of U.S. politics after traveling to Hungary to engage in its politics, with an embedded post showing Vance speaking in a Fox News clip labeled “Vatican Feud.”

Can’t make this up. But keep JD far away from this pope, please!

Meanwhile, the typical American will pay a federal income tax rate of 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

Notice how the most celebrated and successful space mission in *decades* was run by at least 50% “DEI hires”—not all white men? And not even all Americans. Maybe diversity *is* strength . . .

Fluoride in drinking water has no effect on IQ or brain function, a long-term study shows.

The new research is the first to measure community water fluoridation exposure during childhood and any potential impact on cognition up to age 80.

The results contradict RFK Jr. statements.

He's an evil piece of shit, and after 10 years we're closing in on everyone seeing it

He's *dismissing* hundreds of raped kids—and I bet a lot of people who hear him do so will imagine that he's doing something so otherwise unthinkable because some of those kids were his victims

Love, Love Me Dude by J.D. Walker In this image is a man, perhaps in his late twenties, in wet, black board shorts, running barefoot on the beach. Frothy waves are crashing on the shore by his feet, the water is a green-blue color, becoming a deeper blue closer to the horizon. The sky is a light blue color, with white clouds scattered throughout. The man has a light tan, his skin the color of a latte with a lot of milk in it. He has short, dark-brown hair and his face is cleanshaven. He has a runner's build, long, slender, and muscled.

"...one of the locals is looking to sell, and I made an offer. I’ll convert the place, and then, we’ll be neighbors!”

I shook my head in dismay. “No.”

“Yes,” he said with the most evil grin on his face.

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Close up photo of the waning Moon at 92%

This one is a bit rough around the edges. I shot it earlier when the Moon was lower on the horizon, so it's got some atmospheric distortion going on. #SantaBarbara #MoonPhotography #MoonPhotos #MoonShots #Photography #ChingaLaMigra

So Iran now has, perhaps for the first time, information about the location of our most sensitive covert sites in the region.

A completely foreseeable, unnecessary consequence of unnecessary war with Iran.
