I don’t usually swear on here but the news stations can f*** off with their outdated “oh there’s a heatwave look at these people enjoying the beach”, we’re way past that, how about showing us maternity hospitals with no air con, inundated funeral directors, or farmers surveying their scorched crops.

I’ve just realised that the new Hungarian leader Peter Magyar is basically called Peter Hungarian. Which seems appropriate.
The end of Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime is a victory not just for Hungary, but for people who value democracy around the world. Congratulations to Tisza, to incoming leader Péter Magyar, and to Hungarians everywhere.

Watching BBC News today specifically about the level which AI has already been integrated throughout the entire US military intelligence decision making process. Terrifying. Probably why that school was bombed by mistake. This is arguably the first properly AI conflict. Deeply disturbing.

I find it droll that a tattoo parlour can also so brazenly advertise tattoo removal. It’s a bit like a doctor advertising that they also run a funeral home.

My friend told me in the middle of last year that according to astrological predictions everything is due to kick off bigly this March, same sort of foreboding planet alignments as March 2020, and I can’t help keep thinking about that. Just in case, I’ve made no plans beyond February!

So, Euro leaders won’t condemn Trump re Venezuela because they need US help re Ukraine. But failing to condemn his illegality undermines Euro stance against Putin. But won’t this lack of condemnation encourage Trump to go after Greenland? Like failing to respond adequately re Crimea encouraged Putin
