Is there no job not at risk from AI?
Talk has turned to who replaces Starmer (again).
Labour MP tonight:
“As far as I'm concerned, Starmer is done. What matters is what's next. If it's Angela, the honeymoon lasts a week. If it's Wes, a month. If it's Al, 6 months. Hard to see how it turns around beyond that.”

This is a must read by @duncanrobinson.bsky.social which rings an alarm bell long overdue. Both main parties being at 26% is not normal. Every interaction I have with voters (left, right, centre) confirms their anger with the status quo. Yet as he says “Strangely, few in Westminster seem concerned”

I have cats like this and they can be cuddly or infuriating but how do I stop the endless flood of feline messages? And don't start me on relentless so-called sports posts on BlueSky. You know, the ones where only US teams win the World Series or someone needed oxygen after a 60-yard sprint.
