Covid was a Russian psyop to isolate us, get us all permanently online and then drive us insane with social media bullshit and right-wing podcasts. It has been a complete success.

I've spent the last year working on a review of the safe adoption of AI in safety critical systems, and I think one of the hardest things to communicate is that probably Sam Altman's biggest flex has not been in any invention but in disrupting the "traditional" model of innovation diffusion

I once saw Dolly Parton on UK TV. She said “You know, people often ask me, ‘Dolly, how do you play guitar with such long nails?’”
“An’ I say: purdy darn good.”

Another wrinkle that Hallett mentions in passing that is quite important to understanding the £10bn PPE story. It's often argued that £billions was wasted because the NHS ordered faulty PPE that couldn't be used...
The other-worldly quality of the Judge Hallett inquiry continues. On the one hand, £10bn in PPE wasted; on the other, "better to have too much PPE rather than too little."

What "dangerous ideologies" did the people have who stormed the beaches of Northern France on June 6 1944?
Hegseth at Normandy:
"Sadly, today, different European beaches are stormed by different dangerous ideologies. Beaches in Spain and Italy and Greece and Bulgaria. Boats and men arrive. When will European capitals do something about that invasion? Or is it too late? I pray not, and I believe not."

There are three ways the Trump story ends. In one, he is helicoptered to Moscow from the roof of a burning White House. In another he is dangled from a lamp post. This is the third.

Here's a bit of the report of the British ambassador to Iraq: "several hundred Jews were brutally murdered."
At the time, Baghad was one-sixth Jewish.
