Misses the days when crypto exchange meant a PGP key party.
Everyone says “AI will take all the jobs.” If that happens… how does this future actually work? No jobs → no income → no spending. So who buys things? Who pays rent? Who keeps the economy moving? What am I missing here?
The UK is considering an American style global tax regime. If you move to zero tax havens like Dubai, you will still be forced to pay British income tax for the privilege of holding a UK passport and getting embassy protection. The tax loopholes might finally close.
The UK House of Lords has just legalised abortion up to birth. Women can now end the life of their unborn baby at any stage, for any reason, without legal consequences. A truly dark day for Britain.

"I think Brexit was a colossal mistake, we need a UK voice in Europe. We really miss you guys." - Stubb, President of Finland I fully agree. I truly hope that in my lifetime I will see this mistake corrected, and the return of our British friends to where they belong. 🇪🇺🇬🇧
I wish everyone would chill out about the whole “you have X months to escape the permanent underclass” thing. It’s not true. It’s fake. You’re going to be okay. Things might feel stressful for a while but unless everyone actually dies we’ll figure it out.
