A Parliamentary Standards investigation into an undeclared £5m gift. A request for HMRC to investigate if tax is owed. A police investigation into £500K of Reform UK donations by George Cottrell's mother. Reform cry "establishment stitch up". At what point does it become "established pattern"?

i don't know what to do with my void orb knowledge that cutting the binding off of books is one of the two ways to digitize them and the other one is uncommon enough that it is specifically called "non-destructive book scanning" and involves massive How It's Made contraptions
Ben DiagramIt's cute how every mufo has one topic they're Normal about because of their education/training. They'll be going with the flow like "fuck the Cursed Amulet" one day but the next day when everybody's mad about the Void Orb they'll be like "Actually the void orb has a legitimate purpose[1]"

"Clock Tower X created ten websites, each dedicated to a particular aspect of Israel’s propaganda campaign...The websites attract only a few hundred human visitors each month, Drop Site reported. Their principal audience appears instead to be search engines, automated web crawlers and AI chatbots."

Losing multiple high profile -and v expensive- lawsuits and then *just pretending you won them*, is the kind of dogbrained manouvre that sounds too stupid to work. Luckily for transphobes, the UK press have failed to spot this, or mention that it happens quite a lot. Probably nothing to worry about.

It appears to be much worse than a total defeat for the hate group. Féile secured an undertaking to the court that the hate group would stay away from the event, apparently in exchange for an agreement not to pursue costs.

An underreported part of UK Transphobe Lawfare™ is that when they lose, they just... say they won. For all the regrettable sway they do have in courts/govt etc, their real power is in the press. So if they lose, they just pretend they didn't and their press friends print the lie. It's ubiquitous.
Lee HurleyWomen's Rights Network/Sex Matters took Feile to court to have their event reinstated. It was not reinstated. The two statements released after an agreement was reached give two very different impressions of what happened today in Belfast's High Court.

For comparison, Michael Moorcock's famous "how to write a novel in three days" gets you to only 200 or so pages. In three days, not one. The most prolific of the old pulp writers like Lester Dent didn't get to 1000 pages a month often.
madeline odentI clicked thru to the ‘proof of human authorship’ and for the record, if you wrote a 345 page book in 19 hours, no the fuck you didn’t
