Societal collapse?

Oh it was definitely an electrical fault, the bike created an arc and away it went.
 
Just googled to check who "Millipede" was.

Miliband apparently (something Grimes calls him..)

Aces.
 
My niece is flying out of Heathrow on Monday to come see me for 2 weeks
I just messaged her and said there maybe a good chance she can get bumped, I said if there is she should definitely take it as it appears the fallout from the fire will last days...
 
I wish the M25 bit was sattire...
Indeed. I got unavoidably snared in that during the last closure a couple of weeks ago as one of the diversions runs a couple of miles from my door. Over an hour to travel the last mile.
Half tempted to wander up and down the road flogging water to the poor sods stuck this time.

The J10 Wisley/A3/M25 interchange desperately needs doing but the roadworks would test the patience of a saint
 
Some years ago I was doing a degree at Birkbeck that had been put together by a group of lecturers of the left (they looked down on everybody which is how I knew they were left).

One of the theories of economics was that of techno-economic paradigms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlota_Perez) and I remember exploring how society had changed in the past…but then in the mid noughties I couldn’t see anything imminent changing the status quo. But here we are, is AI the technical change driving other social and economic norms, is it Green technology?

We might not be on the cusp of societal collapse, but we are on the cusp of societal change and the powers of status quo are having to work very hard.
 
Working in AI & green technology its probably neither in the next 15 to 20 years sadly.
 
Yet Trump's mate Elon is throwing massive amounts of money at Reform but that doesn't bother you...
Yes, it does. I can't stand Trump or Musk. My point is there has been election interference in several countries in the EU, from both Russia, the US and the EU. I am very happy to call out Russia, and US interference, but yet again, I don't see anything in the main media about EU interference in a nations elections.

It upsets me more, when my own kids do something wrong, than someone else's. I call out all corruption, and don't deny it just because I support a political ideal. You don't make the world a better place by not criticising the people you support, when they do wrong. By doing that in my opinion, when you call out the politicians that you don't like, but refuse to critise your own, because of party allegiance, one could be accused of being part of the problem.
