    UK politics thread – meet the new boss, same as the old boss

    On the upside, the backlash to this news seems to be hurting her chances.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    Because apparently he fired everyone who knew how to automatically disable it for people who weren't paying, I guess?

    Who's trying to break the internet today?

    That would not be a good thing, given how much of our infrastructure these days depends on the internet working.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    It wasn't already doing that? The first time I was hit with "For You", it had one of Musk's tweets at the top. I have a browser extension that removes "For You" altogether installed now.

    Yeah, they made changes to the API, apparently not realizing that their own site uses the API to do esoteric things like "making a tweet". Clearly there was no chance that was going to backfire.

    The COVID Vaccination Thread

    You can basically see where the New Zealand government threw their hands in the air and gave in: There's been no word on vaccinations past the second booster, which was only for certain people (the elderly or health compromised) so I've no idea if we're getting yearly vaccinations or not.

    Corrections and the Transgender Inmate

    The crimes in question were 50 years ago. The last escape was in 1987. At this point, I think they're irrelevant unless she's still assaulting people in prison more recently Which isn't clear from that article.

    Transformers: EarthSpark

    I'm hoping they have more Cons who defected and are working with the Autobots and GHOST. It makes sense that some would be Megaton loyalists rather than cause loyalists, and it's always fun when they mix up who the characters interact with in friendly/antagonistic manners.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    A judge ruled Trump's law suit against Hillary Clinton and a bunch of other people frivolous and ordered he pay them $1 million, so now he's having to cancel his other stupid frivolous law suits. What a shame.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Some fantastic committee assignments by the GOP so far. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who suggested the Jan 6 uprising would have succeeded if she was in charge, is now on the Homeland Security Committee. George Santos is now on the Small Business Committee and the Sciance, Space and Technology...

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    At this point I would not be surprised if they thought that successfully impeaching Biden would mean Trump would automatically be reinstated. Would be fun to see the reactions to President Harris though.

    Does anyone have any idea of when it is most likely we will find out who the new Transformers comic publisher and why it has not happened yet?

    I think probably whoever has the license now will announce something when they're close to having their first issue published and in comic stores.

    They're adjourned until noon Monday, so no 15th vote until then.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Matt Gaetz waited until the end and then voted "Present". Had he voted McCarthy, McCarthy would have won. McCarthy did not look happy. I actually thought a fight might break out there.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Is Byron Donalds speaker material, or are they literally just voting for him because he has "Donald" in his name?
