Don't know if anyone in here is familiar with photonicinduction but he has reappeared online after a two year hiatus and is kicking off with blowing a 5000amp fuse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mGhhdPgXG8 In case you need an introduction, he's... interesting. I get slightly BNP vibes from some of the stuff he says but his incredible ability to pull insane power off the national grid in the service of blowing industrial electrical components into hot plasma is worthy of respect.

goddamnedtwisto posted:Rebirth? Return to his roots, you mean. He was one of those LessWrong weirdoes* and I'm wiling to bet he was previously on at least one of RationalWiki, the JREF forums, or one of the New Atheist newsgroups (probably sci.skeptic, who always thought they were the intellectual superiors of the shitposters on talk.origins and alt.atheism). I mean in at least one of his blogs he has cited big Yud which had me in stitches because of course he would.

This is a scathing and well sourced retrospective. It's hard reading because it drags up a lot of grubby acts I had forgotten throughout 2016-2019 but it draws the right conclusions, even if they're ones that will have no impact at all on the perpetrators of those acts: https://jacobinmag.com/2021/06/liberals-boris-johnson-thatcherism-hard-brexit-corbyn-labour

Bobby Deluxe posted:Hodges becoming press secretary will at least be funny when every single release gets thisyou'd. My money's on Hennessy being the actual candidate, with hodges and burley on there to shore up Hennessy's cred. As much as I want banter timeline to be reality, I just can't imagine hodges being seriously under consideration.

The leader's face is deepest red, It shrouded oft our martyred jez. And ere their plans lie stiff and cold, Their hearts' blood dyed to every bald. Then raise the scarlet starmer high; Beneath his jowls the poor will die. Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer, They're running labour under kier.

They think we have given them too much policy rather than telling them in simple terms how we’d improve their lives.” hmm yes. Too much policy is what labour under keith is known for.
