10 years ago, if there'd been a Hollywood film featuring a rogue POTUS who was gearing up to launch a nuclear strike on literally anywhere, Bruce Willis would have gone through Hell and high water to shoot that fucker in the face.
And that would have been the correct outcome.

We have a finite amount of time to spend thinking while on this earth and I am very resentful of how much of it has been monopolized by the whims of a demented old real estate scumbag

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred.

every country in central and South America has their own very specific answer to the question “When has the United States ever engaged in imperialism”
KERNEN: Europeans are talking about it almost being like Vladimir Putin and Ukraine.
JEFF LANDRY: I disagree. When has the United States engaged in imperialism? Never. Europe has engaged in imperialism. The reason the Danish have Greenland is because of imperialism.

Spare a thought for our society's hard-working satirists, who I suspect are currently despairing that no parody/joke they can ever invent could possibly keep up with the unhinged farce happening on the world stage at the moment.

Almost every story I read about genAI makes me want to kick out the plugs. “But it’s here to stay!” “But I’ve found this positive use for it!” Bully for you. Just turn it off until we can regulate it properly so it doesn’t give dangerous health advice, tell people to kill themselves or generate CSAM

Despite getting more books for Christmas, I've just ordered two more. And we're not even two days into the New Year. Oh dear. 😂
I genuinely think that there's a growing part of me that's rapidly losing trust in online resources and just wants a nice big physical library that no AI can tamper with.

So I'm finally making the permanent move over here from the... dead bird site. Huzzah! Really need to start posting more often.
So for anyone new; I'm Andrew, I live on a diet of coffee, political satire and Britpop.
You can usually find me playing with steam engines, trains or fairground organs.
