@SuellaBraverman @reformparty_uk “Like a hole in the head…

Too relatable.

I know we don’t do facts anymore, but here’s the "dangerous and collapsing" EU that Elon Musk and MAGA influencers keep warning you about.

The number of murders recorded in London dropped to its lowest level per capita since records began. There were 97 homicides in the capital in 2025, down 36 per cent from 153 in 2019. 2025 saw a homicide rate of 1.1 per 100,000 people - safer than comparable global cities such as New York at 2.8, Paris (1.6), Toronto (1.6), Berlin (3.2), Los Angeles (5.6), Chicago (11.7), and Philadelphia (12.3).

Nathan Gill arrives in court for his sentencing for accepting Russian Bribes. Nigel Farage is normally wheeled out onto EVERY news channel if an asylum seeker so much as farts..is he being interviewed by sky, bbc lbc as we speak?

Every drug poisoning death is a policy choice. They don't need to happen.

Nicolas Cage says "protect yourselves from AI." “There is another world that is also disturbing me, and it’s happening right now around all of us — the new AI world. I am a big believer in not letting robots dream for us. Robots cannot reflect the human condition for us. That is a dead end if an actor lets one AI robot manipulate his or her performance even a little bit, an inch will eventually become a mile and all integrity, purity and truth of art will be replaced by financial interests only. We can’t let that happen. The job of all art in my view, film performance included, is to hold a mirror to the external and internal stories of the human condition through the very human thoughtful and emotional process of recreation. A robot can’t do that. If we let robots do that, it will lack all heart and eventually lose edge and turn to mush. There will be no human response to life as we know it. It will be life as robots tell us to know it. I say, protect yourselves from AI interfering with your authentic and honest expressions.”

@relizarov Had a case where [tool] confidently told me the detailed, exact opposite of the real docs. Very convincing yet utterly wrong. More than zero time reading other non-AI references, surely still including docs, seems advisable. Would all flaws really be detected via automation?

The best part of coding with AI? I don’t burn brainpower on learning APIs I’ll never need again. Need integration with GitHub, Google Sheets, Telegram? Done. Zero time spent on reading docs.

This is Jane Goodall’s final message recorded in March that was only to be released upon her passing. What an amazing woman. It’s worth a listen.

The British Council Building in Kyiv has been destroyed by a russian missile. It’s regularly full of British government officials russia is at war with the entire west. If you live in the UK and think Putin wants peace then it’s time to grow up

The purpose of education is to inspire the desire for learning in students and make them able to think, understand, and question. Not grades.

Meanwhile, outside the UK drugwar-o-sphere.... The Senate of Czechia just passed into law a bill that legalises possession of 100g of cannabis at home, and self-cultivation of up to three plants. The law comes into force in January

NEW: China launches its first humanoid robot soccer league in Beijing. This is way more entertaining than regular soccer. The AI-controlled robots were supplied by Booster Robotics for the tournament and have the skills of 5 to 6 year old children. Robots were seen getting carried off the field on stretchers after falling over. Booster Robotics founder Cheng Hao says the robots' abilities will exponentially increase over time and will eventually challenge adult teams. "We chose the football scenario for robot competition primarily for two reasons: first, to encourage students to apply their algorithmic skills to real-world robotics," Cheng said. "Second, to showcase the robots' ability to walk autonomously and stably, withstand collisions, and demonstrate higher levels of intelligence and safety."
