Richard Murphy asks "When are we going to get as scared witless as we should be?" "I can worry about Trump, fascism, neoliberal failure and more. But they're all lower-order issues compared to climate change, and what worries me is that it is not being talked about by almost anyone, whilst the fascists even deny it is happening." #climatecrisis https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2026/07/25/when-are-we-going-to-get-as-scared-witless-as-we-should-be/#gsc.tab=0

The only time I can recall looking forward to #TOTP was in the early 70s and appearances by Deep Purple snd Black Sabbath.

Bought The Guardian on Saturday. In page after page of things I could barely relate to I managed to understand the point this letter writer was making. #backtothefuture

"Even when it is in the right hands it could go wrong due to misalignment. Even if one assumes that AI can ultimately be really beneficial to us when done right, it is currently not done right at all. We are in an AI arms race where companies spend almost no resources on safety checks and alignment. So we should not be too dismissive of the Luddite point of view." https://qummunismus.at/a/article200/

Another view; "There is a growing number of people who really are against all kinds of AI. While historically Luddites were wrong: Instead of fighting against the capitalist system of exploitation, they directed their anger against the machines. With AI the situation is slightly different. AI poses an existential threat to humanity."

@macronencer yes from what I've seen crosswords in the US papers are not quite the same.

"After 20 years of an SNP government Scotland needs change." Anas Sarwar.

The idea that Labour could bring about the change that Scotland needs is obvious flapdoodle. The change that Scotland needs is independence. #scottisIndependence
