“The society said any judgments it issued that were potentially seen as political would do ‘more harm than good.’”
The Royal Society has already made a political announcement: that it is perfectly fine with fascism and having fascists as fellows. As far as political statements go, it doesn’t get any stronger than that. The only thing they could do to make their point clearer is if they hang a “Nazi Bar” sign above their headquarters.

I spotted this '100 best movies of all time' (maybe most popular/influential, see how they chose them) list via Empire, some I agree with, some I'm disturbed by. Now I can't stop thinking about it. Check the list, agree/disagree? What would YOUR top ones be? I'm gonna throw mine together and see what I get. Can I even come up with 100 that are WORTHY? 😂

While still partial and unofficial, the results for the Senate and party-list representatives are very surprising.
Based on months of polling, Bam and Kiko barely made it into the winning 12 circle, but now they are already in the top 5 with 3/4 of election returns counted.
And Akbayan is the top party list? They didn’t win any seat in 2019 and narrowly lost in 2022 but are now poised to get 3 seats?

Krugman quotes Morris again:
❝If Trump gets away with this, he will absolutely do the same thing during the 2026 & 2028 elections. He will manufacture unrest just like in LA and send federal troops to every major city as a way to intimidate voters and decrease turnout. Functional end to fair elex.❞
And after more along these lines:
❝If you’re a pundit who thinks that this is over the top, you’re part of the problem (and you have been wrong every step of the way.)❞

Israel attacked Iran’s capital early Friday, with explosions booming across Tehran as Israel said it targeted nuclear and military sites.
The attack comes as tensions have reached new heights over Tehran’s rapidly advancing nuclear program.
Israel is targeting Iran’s nuclear sites:
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel targeted Iran’s main enrichment facility in Natanz and the country’s ballistic missile program,
as well as top nuclear scientists…

● Abolish minimum off-street parking requirements

Been playing Pistol Whip again. Such a great game. The Black Magic "hard" level, with Reckless and Hell options is ridiculously hard. Finishing at all is a feat.
Was wondering how the hell the top players managed to score so highly. I was in like 4th place thinking I was playing a practically perfect game.
But it turns out only with 188 hits. The top three, I noticed, has 189 hits! There's a secret dude!?
Found him, flying around in the sky mid level on the right.
Nice. That's me 3rd in the global leaderboard for Black Magic Hard Reckless Hell now then.
Maybe I shouldn't be giving the game away. If someone learns of the secret dude from this post and then beats me into 4th place I'll be miffed.

There are two settings that hide the top bar and compose button when a timeline is scrolled down. This helps to make the UI less cluttered for sighted users. But it makes these controls unavailable to screen readers. (Continued in reply.)
