I don’t think Alpha Bros know what they’re talking about. I’ve witnessed men raising families single-handedly — cooking, cleaning, and serving them, all while working hard to bring in an income. Those were real men. And, no, they weren’t modernist, feminised men. They were pious, practising Muslims, who just happened to have been tested by …
Activists of every stripe — be they ethno-nationalists or religious partisans — always insist on presenting their people as eternal victims. Who would dare posit otherwise?
Seeing the problem.
My colleagues are masters of principled refusals… I’m the exact opposite. They would say their refusal to respond to every request is called making a point. Fair enough, but I’d remind them that we’re a healthcare provider and that refusal could impact patient care. I’d rather we were facilitative, helping those on the frontline to …
It’s funny. When I was young, I couldn’t stand hot days because a t-shirt would reveal me to be soooo thin. Now I can’t stand it because it reveals me to be so fat. Back then, I couldn’t bear my matchstick arms, devoid of muscles. Now it’s my face-of-a-hippo torso. Either way, I hate this …
In the run-up to this week’s local elections, I noticed YouTube repeatedly recommending videos of a certain type, the theme always the same: Britain is overrun by criminal migrants. Though most clips provided vague snapshots, recycling old clips with AI generated voiceovers, they tapped into the power of fear and prejudice. None of this was …
All the millionaire influencers tell us they’re leaving Broken Britain for Dubai. Some of them are mildly religious, so try to package it as making hijra to Muslim lands. But it seems to be more about preserving their hard earned wealth — tax optimisation, as they call it. No millionaire wants to fund public services …
If I had any sway in tech decisions across government or healthcare, I’d be giving Linux a very serious look for the desktop. Not just in the “this can revive my old laptop” kind of way, but properly. Properly as in rolling out something like Ubuntu, Mint, or even RHEL (with the right partner discounts) …
Dear Microsoft How is it that a small company like Ascensio Systems can achieve precise layout parity between web and desktop versions of its free OnlyOffice suite when rendering Microsoft Office files, but you cannot? It’s shocking that a company that generates over $50 billion in revenue from its office subscriptions still cannot achieve this, …
Our eldest is evaluating their university options. Amongst them, my old place and its ilk. Naturally, this is the stage at which I beg of myself: how did you graduate yet not benefit at all? Ho hum. Twenty-five years on, my role is to help the next generation make a better success of it.
If only the “Britain Has Fallen” brigade could get out of their social media bubble and observe reality. Britain is nowhere near fallen. For one thing, it remains over 80% white. The idea we are outnumbered by foreigners is nonsense. Why are these people so intent of presenting Britain as a rotten place to live …
A new definition of woke: anything you don’t like. Just say it like it is. A joke.
Do not feed the bots — or rather, bot farms. You think you’re arguing with a bigoted fellow citizen. But, no, you’re arguing with scripts set in motion by unknown activists playing their game of divide and conquer. Even the channels and videos inviting the frenzied comments are malicious plants with AI voiceovers, recycling decontextualised …
