Labour MPs & party insiders tell me they’ve never seen Keir Starmer so angry as over Mandelson’s lies about Epstein links.
But those who know him well say that anger has now turned inwards. That Starmer is, above all else, a man of public service, and will be grappling with his conscious this w/e.
In its Claude Constitution, Anthropic states that Claude has a psychology to take care of.

Not only do I admire the commitment here but the write up is also very funny:

With #Bridgerton back on our screens, let's revisit a classic thread. Queen Charlotte included a scene of King George III eating pussy. So it falls upon us, dear readers, to answer the crucial question: is it historically accurate? Did King George III eat pussy?
Trump has just posted a video of the Obamas pictured as monkeys. This should hit headlines. We warned you about him years ago, but many made him a friend, defended him, salivated and gave him football shirts. Our thoughts are with black people everywhere and my own family. I am sorry. I am so sorry.
“victims of nazism & other dictatorships never stopped repeating fascism had not died, that it was still lurking, waiting for the moment to resurface. That is why it will be so important to be aware of history. Looking back is the best way to face the present”

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.
Yale prof David Gelernter defends his letter urging Epstein to hire "v small goodlooking blonde" student by saying that he was "keep[ing] the potential boss's habits in mind."
This creep shouldn't be allowed anywhere near students.

His version of happiness would be, 'everyone in the world agrees I am the funniest and most intelligent man to have ever existed and therefore I am God and should get to decide the future of humanity'
He's chasing something that could never ever happen and thus he will forever be miserable
Look, I hate to do this, but if you're at a loose end on Sunday, at around 13:30 and - this is a crucial one - you happen to be in Leicester - you could come and see us performing what's been described as 'musical comedy'.
No worries if not. x

some genius somewhere had a web page that loaded slowly so they put a little spinny wheel on top and we all just agreed yes, this is entertaining, let the web page load slowly
World Cancer Day today. Sympathy with all those dealing with the diagnosis. I resolved to be as silly and childish as possible throughout, as that was the only thing I could control.
If Starmer is serious (he's not, ofc) he'd introduce strict new anti-lobbying laws, bring in firewalls against revolving doors, and undertake a deep, unflinching investigation into financial and influence ties in politics, with criminal sanctions.
Pleased to see the jury make this decision.
We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.
People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

Oh my god I remember this story last year, but only that a number of children had been taken ill at a summer camp
He gave the children sweets laced with drugs so he could sexually assault them and also drugged his wife so she wouldn't wake up while he did it 🤮

In the middle of all the political and economic scandal, try not to forget that hundreds of individual young girls were sexually abused and threatened, wrecking their lives, even killing them.
It's part of the power play, for sure, but it is in no way secondary to the corruption.
My friend nicknamed his broom Simon at work. No harm done, just makes the day go quicker.
Only became a problem when a new manager started, and nearly had a heart attack when he was told "I'm going home, so I've locked Simon in the cupboard."
Times:
The Metropolitan Police is expected to announced on Tuesday evening that Mandelson is being investigated on suspicion of misconduct in public office, an offence that carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
Perhaps the real question is “why are more educators not refusing ai?”
Why is it left to students to challenge what the adults should be examining, questioning and refusing?
When teachers lose pay and promotion because they used ai so much, they will have themselves to blame
📢 “A huge amount of men between the age of 15 and 50 will not pass on their genes. They will effectively die out of the gene pool ... Should society intervene?” Steven Bartlett asked last year.
I'm sorry but it's very funny to me that the legislature of a G7/P5 country of 70 million is currently drafting the "Fuck This One Guy in Particular Act of 2026."
Also, imagine tolerating a system of privilege so entrenched you need to rewrite centuries-old rules just to get at one douchebag.

Politicians tell us they can fix poverty with economic growth, or labour market reforms, or easy money.
But all of these fixes just obscure the fact that the poverty of those at the bottom is a direct consequence of the wealth of those at the top. graceblakeley.substack.com/p/the-uk-is-...
I love the noise Canada Geese make as they fly overhead and their instinctive communal sense of aesthetic organisation, plus the way that not one of them will ever barge in on social media with their opinion on a piece of writing without clicking on the link to find out what the piece actually says.
