BLUESKY IS A WEBSITE THAT TURNS (post by jay.bsky.team claiming that bluesky is made with AI) INTO (picture of bluesky not working)
I hope this turns out to be good, but either way what a joy it is to see Mel Brooks so excited about his new movie.

I assume when Wes says this he is planning to forbid cis male doctors, nurses, porters, cleaners and visitors from women's wards. (It is an absurd situation that a trans woman can be employed to work on a women's ward but can't be a patient there).
Linda Yaccarino replies to a Zohran Mamdani tweet to say that taxing rich people's penthouses is "actually one of the scariest things I have ever seen"
Zohran Mamdani said he's going to start taxing rich people who buy luxury housing in NYC but don't actually live in there, and the former CEO of Twitter/X called it "actually one of the scariest things I have ever seen."
I like Sierpinksi Triangles so I made this - because tortilla chips are trianglar too, do you see?
TBH I think it worked better in my head...
It’s genuinely staggering how little substance there is to today’s instalment of the BBC’s attempt to create a national crisis out of a few unproven allegations of immigration fraud 1/
In case you missed it, here is last nights chat with @gigabates.bsky.social about Second Nature. Sorry I forgot to ask him what his favourite flavour of crisps was!

Revealing that the Guardian apparently couldn't actually find any examples of the ruling having "changed lives" positively. Those quoted in support simply express political agreement with it rather than being able to point to any tangible life benefit, in contrast to those quoted in opposition.
Me doing standup: 1. I don't think it's right to attack anyone for the way they look. but I will make an exception for Elon Musk. 2. Because in every photo I've ever seen of Elon Musk he looks like if you stuck a knife in to him... 3. ...he would just be cake.
Elon Musk.
A striking difference between the 2021-22 and the current fossil fuel crunches is the IEA's response. This time, not a mention of the actual solutions to cut dependence on fossil fuels - clean energy and electrification. This expert letter calls them out for it.
Illustration: a dog whose front half (left) is emerging from an orange portal and whose back half (right) is emerging from a blue portal sniffs his own arsehole. Science!
Article from The Wrap. Headline that reads: Inside Doug Liman's $70 Million Al-Made Movie Starring Casey Affleck and Gal Gadot "Bitcoin: Killing Satoshi" will be looking for buyers at Cannes and is billed as the first fully-generated, studio-quality Al feature film Emily Zemler April 15, 2026 @ 6:00 AM

Greg Bluestein @bluestein X.com Local activists expected a big crowd but turnout was sparse. My @AJC colleague Fletcher Page snapped this photo from his perch across the arena shortly after the event started.

This is right, but I'd go further: winning the domestic argument on the free movement of people is what's needed to unlock anything further than the reset. That means Starmer has to repudiate many of his own arguments on migration.

Can someone pass that memo to Wes? Thanks.
I prefer big endian, but i can't argue that little endian effectively did win in a fight.

"Homer Simoson" started to no longer sound like words by the end
Is it, though?
