Ask a communist why they haťe capitalism, and they will give you a myriad of reasons. Ask a capitalist why they haťe communism, and they will describe capitalism.

Overpopulated as far as the world's economic capacity. And I don't want to hear about trillionaires and billionaires. Population will burn through that in a year. As you can see the World is moving into A I and robotics. That alone will eventually put billions out of work.

This really worries me A month ago in Wales I suffered a ruptured aneurysm in my abdomen. I lost over 2 units of blood But the Welsh ambulance service refused to send an ambulance. I was still breathing so apparently didn't need one I spent 7 hours lying on the ground in a car park. Every time I moved I threw up from the pain. The owners of the car park called 999 6x One of the people there was a fireman. He couldn't believe that 999 treated each call as a separate incident and couldn't see the details or link to previous calls. He was frustrated because they could see I was seriously ill but you can't see internal bleeding and so there was no way to persuade 999 that it actually was an emergency Eventually my husband arrived by taxi, journey of more than 3 hours from our home He gave me my pain meds (the car park people were worried about liability and I was too ill to get them myself). This meant I was able to crawl into the car and he drove me to A&E He got me into a wheelchair. We waited 75 minutes to see a doctor. I was shivering, heaped with blankets and threw up all over the floor As soon as a doctor looked at me I was taken straight to resus. The next day I was transfered by blue light ambulance to another hospital, had a blood transfusion and spent 5 days on the high dependency unit If my husband hadn't been able to come and look after me I have no idea how I would have survived. As it was I nearly didn't I would not have been able to get myself to hospital nor would I have been able to log into some digital triage system This scheme seems to assume if you're seriously ill you'll arrive by ambulance and if not you're well enough to navigate a digital portal My experience suggests that's a dangerous assumption A week later, back home in England I had another ruptured aneurysm. This time an ambulance came in 2 hours and again I was taken straight to resus It wasn't the same because I had a recent diagnosis of a ruptured aneurysm so we could tell 999 I was almost certainly bleeding internally. But I was too ill to get myself down the stairs and out to the car. We still needed that ambulance and I still wouldn't have been able to fiddle around with an ipad Proper triage REQUIRES an actual doctor to look at the patient. It takes a matter of minutes to differentiate between a life threatening emergency and not a life threatening emergency. That's not minutes to get a diagnosis but to know that the person is stable or not stable and if not that needs immediate attention Seriously ill people can't do it themselves. It doesn't matter how smart or articulate they are normally. Or how tough. Expecting people to manage their own emergency care isn't what a modern health service should do telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/06…

please can we say 'traffic light colour system' rather than 'RAG', not everyone comes from corpo land🤣

how is ai generated fake news literally now twitter's business model. the bar has fallen through the floor

This is a moderate position

I’ve been banned from the UK. I tried to get on a flight to London to attend SXSW London and give a speech at Oxford. I’ve been banned for criticizing Israel. Are we free anymore? This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!

We are now in a weird era where a guy gets publicly shamed for running his sprinklers on a Tuesday, while a data center the size of a Costco quietly drains a reservoir so AI can generate a picture of your cat as a medieval knight. And the data center gets a tax incentive for it.

Bill Clinton could’ve gotten 78,000 blowjobs from your mom and it wouldn’t be 1% as bad as what your pedophile war criminal president is doing

Job seekers are now hitting employers with the reverse Uno card rejection email

Piss leaseholders off enough and we fuck up your market, revenue & profits. No one will cry for you. Except politicians with building targets LOL

Zoning doesn't need to make sense. It just has to make the right people richer.

Software engineers are not real engineers. Hear the argument: Traditional engineering: 1. Licensed. You sign off on a bridge, your license is on the line. 2. Regulated. Failure = investigation, accountability, legal consequences. 3. Physics-bound. You can't ship a bridge that collapses and patch it Tuesday. Software engineering: 1. Unregulated. Anyone can call themselves a software engineer. 2. Patchable. Broken code ships, gets fixed later. Users absorb the failure. 3. No professional liability. A bug that grounds 500 flights? No engineer loses their license. The Boeing 737 MAX killed 346 people because of a software error. No software engineer was prosecuted. The most powerful engineering discipline in the world has the weakest accountability system. Where should the line be?
