There were greater tragedies in Mark Fisher’s life, god knows, but it’s still a significant one that his magnum opus was written in defence of Russell Brand, and explicitly against the people telling him that Brand was a bad guy.

the horrific character attacks of being asked to explain how her bill should be applied to practical law and why it isn't a massive overreach on people's civil liberties
My friend @Jess4Lowestoft is a hero and a champion for women and children’s safety every single day.
Disagree with her if you want, she can take it. But the horrific character attacks this week should give us all pause about what our politics has become
Proud of you Jess x

heated British journalist moment furiously lambasting a member of the public for not wanting to be conscripted to cook food for Are Brave Boys in an entirely hypothetical wartime situation
‘Unbelievable attitude! We’re screwed then!’
Gen Z caller Josh tells @TomSwarbrick1 not only would he ‘take prison’ over being conscripted into the army, he wouldn’t even cook for the troops.

Young men don’t want your Nazi bullshit because they have gay and trans friends, their favorite coworker is a 50 year old Mexican guy, and they noticed that you’re scaring the hoes

Reminder that the UK's wise and #sensible political centre were critical of Brand over a decade ago, for proposing mild wealth redistribution instead of for being a rapist.

AI bros talking about AI before yesterday’s election vs after yesterday’s election
The differing perceptions of AI are wild. The country just voted against data centers on 40+ provisions nationwide and hates AI. (Plenty of legitimate gripes.) But most of those people are just unaware that AI is finding a new cancer cure or treatment weekly, going through decades of peer reviewed data and uncovering mountains of errors, that its correcting, throughout every academic field. Replacing billions of man hours of drudgery. Closest thing to a “miracle” I’ve ever witnessed. When I talk to people outside of tech/VC, they’re just unaware of all of it.

Please give a read to Jordan’s post ⬇️
All the memes are funny but I genuinely feel bad that the convo about me has overshadowed the real purpose of the BWI500
So many incredible black wrestlers deserve the spotlight instead
I think the main issue with the screw up on the BW500 this year is that now everyone is talking about someone's whiteness when it was suppose to put a lens on black wrestlers.
There's so much discourse about someone's whiteness that Fightful wrote an "article" about it (no shade to Nixi, she ain't do anything wrong, and I got a chuckle out of it as well).
And now what was supposed to at least highlight blackness is still overshadowed by whiteness.
The list is subjective, so it's whatever, but we gotta do better research so the it actually achieves what I believe it was meant to - which is highlighting black talent.

it's cass reviews all the way down.
reports and studies don't exist to be read and understood, they don't exist to inform, they exist to be bludgeons to force through whatever a given legislator's pet issue is.
