There is such a joy to Ffarquhar Branch. Everyone who came to see it smiled so much, no matter their age or background. It is something so special, and I'm so honoured to be involved with it - let alone operate it! Who else spotted the new addition to the platform?

John Healey resigns as Defence Secretary over Keir Starmer's lack of defence funding. He didn't resign over Keir Starmer and the Labour government's arming, intelligence-sharing and enabling of the genocide in Gaza.

Can we, as the next generation of railway enthusiasts, persuade groups away from ai slop posters. They look so bad and take away from what makes each rwy unique. Give me badly aligned comic sans, a crusty jpeg and clip art any day.

Forcing children from poor backgrounds to "learn" by using the technology that reduces cognitive capacity, gets things wrong all the time, and tells them to drink bleach and kill themselves with no safeguards. Labour really do love their eugenics. Destroy them all.
Sir Keir Starmer has announced that AI tutors will be rolled out to 450,000 children on free school meals to close the attainment gap. Speaking at London Tech Week, the PM also announced the government's new AI jobseeking tool.

> sees friend unhappy living as they are > convinces friend not to do something because…it might stop them being unhappy > compares transitioning to drug addiction lol lmao even Loser behaviour.
Look guys. Genuinely I am not transphobic. I see ya. I hear ya. I respect ya. I never mean to sound like I am or act like I am. If I do then I genuinely apologize. All I care about is my friends’ well-being. I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times. I’m not. Move on.

Multiple studies have shown that use of LLM chatbots in learning causes significant cognitive decline. It is reasonable to assume this is the UK government conspiring to stunt the development of low-income children so that they may be more easily recruited as forever-war fodder.

So what?! A proposed new datacentre in England will produce more emissions than an international airport. And it's just one of many. We are turning the clock back on climate science for the sake of big data and AI slop without any thought for the impending carbon footprint.
Replying to @Donna__McLean
So what? What's the problem with the % of electricity use? Isn't there enough left for homes?

The vast majority of people not realising this is simply a way to monitor, and eventually censor, everyone’s online activity is mind boggling Even if you’re 65, you’ll still have to provide identification/selfie to use X, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, discord etc. Open your eyes

if the bbc had to do this for every time they misquoted/misrepresented jeremy corbyn it would be a nonstop stream of apologies. wonder why they hardly ever did, if ever.

The no faces off Sodor thing was only an explanation for his model railways really, it doesn't really apply in the books - especially when we regularly see engines with faces at Barrow, in London and other places in the UK.
Ima be real guys….. i don’t really have a problem with the Faces only on Sodor due to the magic tunnel thing. The entirety of the original show was Magical since TATMR What’s been described matches up with Awdry’s first explanation on why the engines were alive.

Obviously there's these which show no faces - Awdry explained this in an interview, and effectively it was because he didn't want kids going to the bluebell, Talyllyn etc expecting to see faces like in the books. These are from the perspective of "our" world, not the RWS'
