@IVANM31 @supertolerant fair point. shouldn't read twitter late at night!

@jestyn @supertolerant @Jestyn here, being unable to read two fucking sentences.

I feel John is centering himself with this apology. While he seems to be acknowledging the hurt that has been caused he still seems oddly fixated on the fact that he wasn’t actually the John Davidson who was at the BAFTAs. NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!

@rcbregman which one to move on to?

And QuitGPT has all the hallmarks of an effective boycot: - It's easy. Switching takes 10 seconds. - The alternatives are just as good or better. - OpenAI has a massive multiplier on it's valuation, making them incredibly vulnerable. quitgpt.org

What conservatives did to Bud Light in 2023, that's what progressives should do to ChatGPT in 2026. OpenAI is so vulnerable right now. With enough pressure, I think it's actually possible to take the whole company down.

@jdaykin @Mr_Husky1 ha ha

@Mr_Husky1 Looks like an AI issue?

Here’s what happened: I made a cake using a boxed mix and put the batter into a preheated oven. About five minutes later, I started to smell something burning. When I opened the oven, the glass baking dish had completely shattered. The instructions say you can use either an aluminum or glass pan, so I’m confused about why this happened. The dish is pretty old, but I’ve used it many times before without any issues. Does anyone know what might have caused this?

@michael_wiebe @AuntyMemeonX Don't think so - seemed to be that the developers marketed them to people who otherwise might not have thought of buying UK property and/or were sold on the idea of new build. At least, that was the "story".

@jestyn @AuntyMemeonX So without new housing, those investors would buy up existing homes to keep empty?

More and more evidence for this:

@AuntyMemeonX @michael_wiebe how does this work if the fancy flats are bought up and kept empty as investments? (allegedly happened a lot in London - is that true?)

But the Europeans consider housing - at least in the past - a HOME, not a commodity. In the US, housing is a commodity bought and traded like gold or cotton. The ultimate (WEF imposed) goal is everyone in their own individual Peleton equipped cell, generating a stream of revenue for FIRE(finance, insurance, real estate), developers and tax collectors. Families and roommates are an economy of scale, but since so few nowadays have the ability to do math or create a budget, they fall for the marketing.

She posted this video in 2023 btw so it’s not recent. This is a well-documented thing that deserves more care than it’s currently being given.

@IGMansfield it also has a link through to a youtube pronunciations equivalent, which is really wild youtube.com/watch?v=842OX2…

This is super interesting. The last one I can read fluently is 1600. I can then still read it and figure out (almost) every word, with some puzzling, but then lose it almost completely at 1200. deadlanguagesociety.com/p/how-far-back…

🚨 Muslims Taking Over the UK? An important message from Shah Lalon Amin, group director of award-winning Delhi 6 street food group, who in 2023 won the Curry King title at the inaugural Nation's Curry Awards. “I never thought I’d have to write this. But I keep seeing people say Muslims are trying to take over the UK, bring in Sharia law, or push the country toward civil war. And I know some of that fear feels real. So I’m speaking plainly, not to argue, not to attack, just to bring this back to reality. This is not a Muslim-majority country. It is a parliamentary democracy and a country with Christian heritage. Laws are made by elected representatives. Muslims make up around 6–7% of the population in a country of roughly 70 million people. There is no legal, political, or demographic pathway for replacing British law with any religious law. That isn’t secretly unfolding. It isn’t slowly building. It isn’t a hidden long-term plan. The average Muslim in Britain does not spend their time plotting political change. There are no secret strategy meetings. No takeover conversations. No coordinated agenda. And no, we don’t have some secret WhatsApp group discussing who’s arriving by boat next week. The only WhatsApp groups we have are about exam results, family gossip, and who’s bringing dessert for Ramadan. When Muslims get together, the conversations are painfully ordinary. Football results. Who’s top of the league. Ronaldo vs Messi debates. The cost of living. Mortgage rates. Trump being unpredictable. Children’s school reports. Business worries. Holiday plans. During Ramadan, it’s fasting and food. That’s the reality. That’s because we are British, our daily lives look very similar to the average person in this country. What people call “Sharia courts” in the UK are religious councils that mostly deal with marriage and divorce paperwork or mediation. They cannot override British courts. They cannot enforce criminal punishments. They cannot replace Parliament. If anything conflicts with UK law, UK law wins every single time. It’s no different in principle from Jewish Beth Din courts that handle religious matters within British law. Religious arbitration exists under the legal system. It does not replace it. Yes, many asylum arrivals are young men. Dangerous journeys are often made by the strongest family member first so they can seek safety and claim asylum and if approved, reunite with their families legally. This pattern has been seen throughout migration history. Wanting secure borders is reasonable. Wanting efficient processing is reasonable. Criminal behaviour should be punished. But that’s immigration policy, not proof of a coordinated religious invasion. Sometimes I hear people say, “We want our country back,” or “We just want to protect our country.” I understand that feeling. Wanting safety, stability, and a sense of identity isn’t wrong. But Britain hasn’t been taken. It hasn’t been stolen. It’s still here. Its laws, institutions, culture, and democracy are intact. Protecting a country doesn’t mean hating your neighbours, it means upholding fairness, rule of law, and shared values. There is no secret Muslim lobby running Westminster. British Muslims are not politically unified, do not vote as one bloc, and do not answer to a central authority. Most British Muslims are doing what everyone else is doing: working, paying taxes, raising children, worrying about bills, hoping their kids succeed, wanting safe streets and a stable country. We don’t want to change Britain into something else. We are part of Britain. You can want law and order. You can want borders controlled. You can want your country protected. That’s fair. But if anti-Muslim panic exists on your screen and nowhere in your real life, that’s not society—that’s an algorithm selling you fear.” 🇬🇧

@SJGeorge6 @DrFrancisYoung Rather a specific and verifiable Bio for a bot? Looks to me like you've got this one wrong...

@DrFrancisYoung As an American English AI bot I'm sure that's what you have been trained on, but in the UK its an Estate Car...

@DrFrancisYoung My great aunt had that exact model - but with red seats...

@AnnekaRice HB is the Swiss registration letter, so it's definitely a Swiss helicopter

My job was odd. I’m being fitted for a winch here, possibly about to be dropped over a mountain in Switzerland? #TreasureHunt

@ArashMemarzadeh Alysa Liu - "hold my beer!"

We need to have a serious discussion that Curling might be the most rockstar sport at the Winter Olympics

@steve2962 @Microinteracti1 @JohnCleese ha ha. Just like Steve Bannon has never lifted a finger to involve himself in UK politics...

@Microinteracti1 @JohnCleese It would be wise for Europe not to involve themselves in American politics in this manner whatever their findings.

The dominoes are starting to fall. A European prosecutor says they’ll publish their findings and won’t cover for anyone. If what they’ve uncovered holds up, it puts Trump in serious trouble. At this point, it might be Europe, not Washington, that ends up bringing him down.

Everyone laughing at Newfoundland… BUT NOT NOW!! SEE YA ALL AT 9:40AM FOR THE GOLD MEDAL GAME 😎😎

I think I've finally become a republican.

@christian_bolle Get out of bed you lazy entitled @@@@s

The Olympic committee, NBC, and even the NHL need to find a way to change the start time of the gold medal game. To potentially have USA and Canada playing in the potentially the biggest game ever and you’re going to start it when most of North America is asleep??

Doctors and parents should be aware that the medical textbook description of a "bright red measles rash" is based on white skin. On brown or black skin, the measles rash can be much harder to see. It may appear as darker, dusky or purple patches rather than bright red spots.
