Oh god, that film horrified me.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

It's a really worrying situation. The government brought in a pension obligation for employers x years ago, but it came with virtually no education for the public. The vast majority of employers and employees put in the absolute minimum (3% / 5%, I believe) and many employees still opt out.

OK, not nothing. Portishead.

Love this idea.

Does anyone have any examples of bands/singers that were enormously influential and/or famous who just completely passed you by? For me, I think it's Elastica.

I know that one song. But other than that, nothing.

I'm loving the photos from Artemis 2, both the external ones and the pics of the crew. But these have been done many times before. I think the real value is that we're doing this again, and that it could hopefully lead to more in the future. It's the promise more than the actuality.

I have wondered before how the hell this place still exists. For what it's worth, I would definitely pay a subscription. No ads. No algorithm (or at least one that can be ignored). It's brilliant. It's what social media used to be.

I still have one of those alarm clocks 😂

human beings can leave our planet and visit our moon, even just for a fly by. It's an enormous testament to the ingenuity and hard work of so many people. It is truly awesome, in the original sense of the word.

I know a lot of people are saying Artemis 2 is pointless, or a waste of money.

People said the same sort of thing in 1969, (so I've heard, I'm too young).

All these things are true. It's also a wonderful thing that is happening. It's an amazing achievement. It should never bore us that

Oh god, if you'd replied to the first instinct. How would you continue to live?

He also wrote "Ra", which is incredibly inventive and fun.

Oh god, there's videos on YouTube of Manchester in the 60s, and the comments are disgraceful.

Need the phone number of this place so I can register my distaste.

Kemi Badenoch calls Trump’s repeated criticisms of Starmer ‘childish’ Tory leader says US president’s words ‘completely wrong’ as she tries to distance herself from his war on Iran

This shouldn't be news, but it really is. I think she's realising there's a real world out there.

Obviously you do you, but I'm 45 and I've never understood what Balatro is and I'm scared to find out, so I'm glad you've done this.

The credulity in these articles should be self-excluding.

Yeah.

I agree. The article doesn't even try to address the quality of the program, or how that might have changed over the years, and how that could perhaps feed into its perception within the industry.

Oh god, I forgot about Aniara. Need to go back into therapy now.

I thought this was depicting Starmer as the God Emperor of Dune

Not a phrase, but dropping a glass in a pub.
