Seeing seemingly everything reduced to this AI-generated self-help clickbait format, I can’t help thinking of Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, where the last ever edition of Hamlet was a 1-page plot summary to help you “impress your friends and neighbours!”

There's just no serious doubt that the "rape" prosecution of Russell Brand, for which he has now been convicted and jailed, was first precipitated by his very public turn toward vaguely right-wing (and admittedly often wacky) political and religious commentary.
In 2022, the Times (UK) published a big feature lambasting him for his purported transformation into some sort of dodgy right-wing "conspiracy guru."
Then in 2023 comes the big expose about Brand's allegedly sordid history of "sexual assault" and "abuse." The Times claimed they first started hearing of such allegations in 2019, but apparently had little urgency to follow up for several years.
Then all of the sudden, in "autumn 2022, Channel 4’s Dispatches formally began collaborating with The Sunday Times to investigate Brand."
Another notable event that occurred in "autumn 2022": Russell Brand was announced as a featured broadcaster on the right-wing (ish) video platform Rumble, alongside the likes of Donald Trump Jr. and Dan Bongino.
Soon enough, boom — here comes the newly frenzied "investigative" activity by the joint Times/Channel 4 task force — eventually yielding the big splashy 2023 "documentary" (more like "slopumentary”) which today they are bragging "led to" Brand's conviction in London for various sexual assault and rape offenses.
(He was also acquitted on multiple counts, in a very curious mixed verdict. NONE of the allegations aired in that 2023 propagandocumentary were ultimately charged at trial.)
Really makes U think...

But basically, I invited him on the podcast, and he replied something along the lines of, "What does that even mean?" and then blocked me. Not kidding.

I wish Russell Brand would get the chair. I also don’t care if he is guilty or not. He’s a degenerate Zionist and nothing of value was lost.

The UK has no conscription and the government has no plans to reintroduce it. The article speculates on hypothetical future scenarios which it states are not currently being contemplated.

Proud to announce that students in England will be able to study Ukrainian at GCSE.
It’s a chance for pupils to explore Ukraine’s rich culture and history and, for the Ukrainian community to remain connected to their heritage.
This is another step in our enduring support for Ukraine as part of the 100 Year Partnership 🇺🇦🇬🇧

I predict the Democrats will be far more aggressively right-wing and pro-war than even the Republicans, fully repairing NATO relations, doubling down on support for Ukraine, Taiwan, and broadening the strategy against Iran. The DSA will be seen by history as useful idiots.

One of my favourite genre of posters are academics who know enough about techno to be aware that it originated with Black Americans in Detroit but not enough to know that, for example, the Bellevue 3 were pretty middle class, or that Juan Atkins made several - really good - collaborations with a descendant of Otto von fucking Bismarck.
Because these people simply do not give a shit about the music and want to use Juan Atkins’ death as an opportunity to shit on people that, for whatever reason, they dislike.

In the three days before midterm voting, Trump hosted a freakish caviar party with drag dancers, live zebras and an artificial jungle at Mar-a-Lago, touted his $19 million renovations to the reflecting pool, and bombed Iran's Qeshm island
