Marina Hyde is a brilliant columnist:
Imagine owning the world’s premier shitposting platform – in fact, having spent $44bn on it, specifically so that your magic mirror would tell you each day that you were the fairest shitposter of all – and then shuffling sheepishly on to your own pixels to mumble something about having gone “too far” with your hurty words.

Surely the way to stop kids looking at things that aren't appropriate for children on the internet isn't to take those things off the internet - pretty much a decade-long gov policy under both parties, though the new laws only just came into effect.

The only solution is radical energy descent.

which he regards as stolen sovereign territory.
US officials warned last week that China already has sufficient capability to invade now,

D-day-style floating docks, paratroopers and expanded air combat and missile forces in a constant state of readiness.
