That you can publish in a respectable magazine that autistic people having power is worrying because they don’t follow consensus thought is accidentally very telling about why the UK is stagnating.
Whether it’s Delo or Musk, should we be worried when men who think so differently from the rest of us wield such financial and political power?
Their raw cognitive ability enables them to accrue wealth on a quasi-sovereign level by understanding complex systems rather than people.
But communication is not their forte and, with some exceptions (Doge, for example), they avoid public office and, as a consequence, evade the scrutiny that elected politicians are subjected to.

I suspect that the reason for the anti-data center campaign is that data centers have the potential to unite America’s elite tech enterprise with her heartland, which would be disastrous for our adversaries. They fear tech and labor working together.

Exposing the serial lies and plagiarism of a widely celebrated academic is a “lynching” in much the same way that making an accurate reference to a man’s sex in spite of his false claim to be a woman is “genocide”
I called Jason Arday’s death a ‘digital lynching’, because it is. Existing behaviours & prejudices map onto new technologies…and are then perpetuated by them.
That’s what these platforms are built to do. Jason Arday isn’t an aberration. He’s the business model.

She has been vindicated. And the irony is not that she was maligned by Muslims nor Pakis, as much as she was maligned by people who looked just like her, had the same ethnic roots, but were of a different social class, so they threw her under the bus for DEI politics.

Reagan would never do anything like send weapons or money to Iran.
Wait someone is handing me a note
Reagan is rolling over in his grave. Iran’s nuclear ambitions were not curbed, and they have learned that threatening the Strait of Hormuz works and will undoubtedly leverage it in the future. Now, Iran gets to build brand-new infrastructure under this deal.
Before the war, the strait was open, Iran was being crushed by sanctions, and 13 service members were still alive. Now, 13 Americans are dead, families have paid billions at the pump, sanctions will be lifted, and the bombing has stopped. This is the worst foreign policy blunder in decades.

The last few days have reinforced my belief that a lot of dudes simply can't (or won't ) understand something: people of other faiths believe their own religions just as hard as you believe yours.
"But anybody can see that their religion is stupid and wrong."

Just corruption all the way down.
Utah Speaker of the House Mike Schultz bought 640 acres of land near the proposed Box Elder data center on January 3, 2025. What a coincidence!
A politician who had actual ethics and integrity would have disclosed this.

One of the most beautiful scenes in cinema teaches one of life’s greatest lessons and on Mother’s Day, it hits especially deep.
In The Return of the King, Arwen, once immortal, is given a vision of her future son. Tears fill her eyes, not just from loss, but from the overwhelming clarity of what she will gain: the chance to hold that child in her arms, to love him, to raise him, to pour her entire being into his fleeting, precious life.
Her father warns her: “There is nothing for you here, only death.” Yet in that little boy’s eyes, she sees something brighter than eternity the vibrant, mortal miracle of motherhood. So she makes the choice. She lays down her elven immortality, embraces the Gift of Men, and accepts aging, goodbye, and eventual loss… all so she can become a mother.
Arwen didn’t just choose Aragorn. She chose motherhood. She traded endless twilight for the brightness of one mortal lifetime filled with love, laughter, scraped knees, bedtime stories, and the wild, irreplaceable joy of watching her child grow. In a world fading for the Elves, she reached for the warmth of human family instead.
This Mother’s Day, may we remember the quiet courage of every mother who has done something similar who has surrendered pieces of herself sleep, freedom, dreams, even parts of her own identity so that new life could bloom. True love, especially a mother’s love, often means choosing the finite so that something eternal can be born through it.
Thank you to every mother who said yes to the beautiful burden of raising the next generation. Your sacrifice is never unseen. Your legacy lives in the eyes of your children.
Happy Mother’s Day. 💐
