“MacIntyre grasped, perhaps better than any other thinker of his generation, the tragedy inherent in industrialised modernity” — Sebastian Milbank 🥀🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 remembers Alasdair MacIntyre thecritic.co.uk/still-living-i…

If you don’t take your life seriously, you'll be a joke. If you take it too seriously, you'll miss the joke.

in 30 years i’ll probably be up to some boomer stuff, like ”NO SON OF MINE IS MARRYING AN LLM, MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN TWO HUMANS ONLY”, and my kids will be like ”OMG dad you’re so robophobic!!!”

In February it was announced that Baroness Louise Casey was doing a ‘Rapid National Audit’ around #groominggangs , to find out whether #victims being treated better now, whether things have changed, to assess current practises in #police, Crown Prosecution Service Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) etc and seek the

Keep going Maggie Oliver . The nation is behind you.

It's incredible how much you forget in life. #Learning

You say tomatl and I say potatl.

It would be helpful for Reform to warn donors that, if you (for example) buy some bitcoin for £2k, and its worth £4k when you donate it, then you’re taxed on a £2k capital gain.

I'm a British Turk and Robert Jenrick is obviously right - there are far too many Turkish barbers on our high streets. They're always empty. They're never run by Turks. And they're everywhere. If that's not weird, I don't know what is...

The great thing about progress in science is that over time the great leaps are easily seen, but when you are in the thick of it, it’s not so easy. Science is hard.

Diffusion models will never come up with a new form of art. First you wait for people to come up with that new art, scrape their data, hopefully with consent & compensation, then squeeze the data into a model as a probability distribution from which variations can be sampled.

OK, I have now read the document that Zia Yusuf snuck out to try to back up his ludicrous claim that Reform UK could raise £7B by scrapping DEI initiatives across government. TL;DR — absolute, weapons-grade, Tory manufactured bollocks. Aside from the basic spelling

These blanket statements are just stupid and actually hinder meaningful actions against Islamism, rape gangs etc. E.g. see أبو عمّار at the Oxford Union for an excellent defense of why Islam and democracy can be compatible.

I generally don't think judging entire nations based on the worst things that have ever happened there (historically or currently) is a reasonable standard. Nobody one holds their own country to this standard.
