“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made. In Him was life; and the life was the Light of men. And the Light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.” John 1:1-5

Keir Starmer enters through Jeremy Clarkson’s back door, but Clarkson won’t let him into the pub. Luckily, James May is on hand to assist. {satire}

premium+ premium+ premium+ 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Kemi Badenoch is delivering cheaper fuel. Keir Starmer tries to stop her, much like Labour’s plan to keep the 5p cut till August, then quietly load fuel duty back on in stages. Kemi responds in the only proportionate way possible: by nicking his hairpiece. {satire}

Many a ☕️ will be spilt today 🤣

@CrewkerneGaz I love this 🤣 🤣

In an early April Fools’ surprise nobody saw coming, Keir Starmer has decided to make Sadiq Khan a Lord. We’re reliably informed the Prime Minister broke the news to Sadiq this morning while the pair were visiting Andy’s Wig Emporium in Crewkerne. {Satire}

@birdabo What happened to the builders who changed their sleep schedules to match context window size?

Anthropic just throttled Claude Code during peak hours. here’s what this means. use of Claude Code between 5am-11am PT now drains hella faster. weekly limit is the same. we’re not losing anything. they’re just spreading usage. peak hours cost more and off-peak hours cost less. if you’re running heavy coding sessions, do them outside peak hours and you’ll barely feel a difference. Anthropic is basically telling us “too many of you are using this at the same time and we need a minute.” seems like growing pains.

This is beautiful.

@EricLDaugh Matt Rife?

🚨 BREAKING: A Russian man has been JAILED in the UK for 4 years after Barron Trump swooped in and saved a woman from being beaten — promptly calling the police Barron was on the phone with her, realized there was trouble, and sprung into action INCREDIBLE! She said: "He helped save my life. That call was like a sign from God at that moment." Matvei Rumiantsev was reportedly "jealous" the woman was friends with Barron Barron said on the phone: “I’m calling from the US, I just got a call from a girl… she’s getting beat up." “This was happening about eight minutes ago. I just figured out how to, how to call someone. It’s really an emergency.” This dude is a hero! A force to be reckoned with!

I may finally be able to upgrade my iOS 🤣 🤣

Bahahahaha

@CrewkerneMan @CrewkerneGaz @TalkTV We have entered the good timeline 🤣 🤣 🤣

Fresh questions about Keir Starmer’s hairpiece were once again looming over the Prime Minister this morning. Perhaps there were messages on Morgan McSweeney’s phone to Peter Mandelson that talk of the now infamous alleged artificial barnet. @TalkTV @CrewkerneGaz

@elonmusk @Ric_RTP

@Ric_RTP Scam Altman is super good at scamming

This AI whistleblower just EXPOSED Sam Altman for manipulating his way into becoming OpenAI’s CEO. Everyone who helped him build it has left because they felt used. Karen Hao interviewed 300 people including 90 current and former OpenAI employees. And she just told Steven Bartlett what she discovered: In 2015, Altman needed Elon Musk to co-found OpenAI. Problem was, Musk was obsessed with AI as an existential threat. So Altman wrote a blog post calling AI "probably the greatest threat to the continued existence of humanity." Before that blog post? Altman's biggest fear was engineered viruses. Not AI. He literally rewrote his worldview overnight to mirror Musk's language word for word. Musk bought in. Donated millions. Co-founded the company. Then Altman stabbed him in the back. When OpenAI needed a CEO for its new for-profit arm, the co-founders Ilia Sutskever and Greg Brockman initially chose Musk. Altman went directly to Brockman, a personal friend, and said: "Do we really want someone this erratic and unpredictable to control a technology that could be super powerful?" Brockman flipped. Then convinced Ilia to flip. Musk found out he wasn't getting the role and left. That's how the biggest rivalry in tech actually started. Not over ideology... Over a backroom power play. But here's where it gets darker: Every single person who built OpenAI alongside Altman eventually felt the same thing Musk felt. Used. Manipulated. Discarded. Dario Amodei, VP of Research, thought Altman shared his vision. Over time he realized Altman was on "exactly the opposite page" and had used his intelligence to build things he fundamentally disagreed with. He left and founded Anthropic. Ilia Sutskever, co-founder and chief scientist, tried to get Altman fired. He told colleagues: "I don't think Sam is the guy who should have the finger on the button for AGI." He was pushed outounded Safe Super Intelligence. That name alone tells you everything. Mira Murati, CTO, left and started Thinking Machines Lab. No other tech company in history has had every single co-builder leave and start a direct competitor. Not Google. Not Meta. Not Apple. NOBODY. 300 interviews exposed one consistent pattern: If you align with Altman's vision, you think he's the Steve Jobs of AI. If you don't, you feel like you were manipulated by someone who will say whatever is needed to whoever is listening. When talking to Congress? AGI will cure cancer and solve poverty. When talking to consumers? It's the best digital assistant you'll ever have. When talking to Microsoft? AGI is a system that generates $100 billion in revenue. Three completely different definitions of the same technology sold to three completely different audiences. And if you publicly disagree with any of it? OpenAI subpoenaed 7 nonprofit organizations that criticized them. Sent a sheriff to a 29yo nonprofit lawyer's door during dinner demanding every text, email, and document he'd ever sent about OpenAI. A one-man watchdog nonprofit got papers demanding all communications with anyone who questioned the company. OpenAI's own head of mission alignment publicly said "this doesn't seem great." That's the guy whose literal job is making sure OpenAI BENEFITS humanity. Former employees who spoke up about secret non-disparagement clauses that threatened to strip their equity described the psychological pressure as "crushing." This is the company that tells us it's building technology "for the benefit of humanity." Same company that mirrors whatever language gets them funded. Same company where every builder eventually walks away feeling deceived. Same company sending law enforcement to silence critics. The biggest AI company on Earth wasn't built on technology. It was built on one man's ability to tell everyone exactly what they needed to hear. And the scariest part is that it worked.

@CrewkerneGaz It would be an upgrade to continue this look indefinitely for Kier. 🤣 🤣

Keir Starmer was left red-faced after it emerged he misled Beth Rigby over the now-infamous missing McSweeney phone. Labour sources had warned a month earlier that the phone would be important. Enter Phil Mitchell and Uncle Albert. {Satire}

Keir Starmer’s handling of Beth Rigby’s question this morning about a possible cover-up over the missing phone had all the hallmarks of Bill Clinton’s famous “I did not have sexual relations with that woman” denial. Does anyone believe him?

@AdrianDparody Beautiful. 🤩

cigarette train

@CrewkerneGaz 🤣

Secret baldy Keir Starmer slips into Andy’s Wig Emporium in Crewkerne for a fresh hairpiece fitting, but just wait until you see who else walks in for a new wig. {satire}

Political whodunnit of the week: where is Morgan McSweeney’s phone? A device reportedly containing McSweeney-Mandelson messages vanishes, police log the wrong address, and the case is treated as routine. Keir Starmer’s relief is almost audible. {satire}
