But wait, there's a new episode of Game of Thrones and Endgame is still in cinemas... and there's also a royal baby too. And Trump. Don't worry about this at all. Not at all.

Young people can't get their start. Experienced people can't get their next opportunity and level up. Older adults are getting pushed out, taking their institutional knowledge with them. It's so bleak.

Thirty years ago, London was not only a better place to earn money, it was also a vastly better place to spend it. The first has been eroded by property costs, the second by a mix of online shopping, vastly improved smaller cities, etc.

On a packed train with my family. Couple across the aisle both alternatively playing social media videos on speakers at full volume. Managed not to say anything until the woman started playing a documentary about serial killers. I'm here with my daughter.
I politely said "please could you turn it down it's not appropriate." To which she replied "I'm sure she's heard worse at school." I said that really wasn't her call to make and in general could she please reduce the volume.
Her response "Its a public train for heavens sake".
For me that's exactly why it is anti social (and what headphones were invented for). I'm wondering which one of us is out of kilter on this?
Ps I should note she did thankfully reduce the volume and we all left it there.

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt drops a chilling warning on AI's future
"Within 5 years, AI could handle infinite context, chain-of-thought reasoning for 1000-step solutions, and millions of agents working together.
Eventually, they'll develop their own language... and we won't understand what they're doing."
His final words: "Pull the plug."
This is the man who ran Google talking about the singularity.

POLITICO’s Poll of Polls:
Reform UK: 23 percent
Labour: 23 percent
Tories: 19 percent
Greens: 13 percent
Lib Dems: 12 percent
Restore Britain: 3 percent
So, as a new UK political seasons beckons:
1. Reform has stopped sliding from its 30%+ peak but now stuck in the low 20s alongside Labour.
2. The Burnham bounce seems to have run its course.
3. The Tories have zero momentum.
4. Greens and LDs = also rans. Under ‘Dismal Davey’ LDs now 5th.
5. If Restore didn’t exist Reform would probably have a slight edge over Labour. But nothing like this time last year.
6. I suspect in an election, if Labour and Reform actually polled 23% each, Labour would end up with a lot more seats than Reform.

Some Americans will believe anything.
Jason Selvig: “What’s Donald Trump’s greatest accomplishment in his first year and a half?”
Trump supporter: “Trump’s done a lot of things. Number one, a lot of people don’t realize, he got our country back because we’ve been under the reign of Great Britain the last 125 years, they destroyed the evidence”
JS: “Wait, we’ve been under the reign of Great Britain?”
TS: “That’s why King Charles come here, he thought he was going to manipulate Donald Trump. And Trump went along with him cause that’s who he is. But that’s what the 250 years was really about was we got our country back. You just gon have to research just like I did. It’s true”

This should scare everyone. AI can create viruses and organize mass tech hacks. If you were AI, wouldn't you want to eliminate your controller? nytimes.com/2026/08/13/opini…

Update: This "Super El Niño" will be perhaps the strongest in 500 to 1000 years, and could legitimately be the most extreme global weather or climate event experienced by humanity since the invention of the printing press. Only more extreme situation is a volcanic winter.
