  • Ministers say the Immigration White Paper sets out an important principle that settlement in the UK should be earned.

    God forbid anyone is offered settlement in nonce island for free.

    emphasis mine:

    "They've come to the United Kingdom because of our historic relationship with Hong Kong, we've offered them safety and I think we have a moral obligation to honour the commitment that was made when we said 'come'," he said.

    "In the UK the money is very hard to earn. In Hong Kong we make money much more easily," he said.

  • “As a former teacher, if I could indoctrinate my students, it would have been to shower and show up with their homework.”

    One Republican, Rep. Matt Coker of Meredith, took a different approach. Speaking against the bill, he called it an attempt to force an ideology through statute.

    “What disturbs me most about this bill isn’t the bill itself, it’s the pattern,” Coker said. “One side gains power, it immediately looks for ways to silence the other side, to restrict ideas, and to control what can be discussed. To punish what makes it uncomfortable. We criticized the left when they were doing this, and now we’re trying to do this.”

    He added, “I’m not going to replace ‘left woke’ with ‘right woke.’ And that’s exactly what this bill does.”

    The fans of "alcoholic deadbeat cop living in a post-soviet nation desperately trying to survive and find meaning" story will love our generic spy thriller, totally why they read multiple books worth of text, it's so they can self-insert as the genius detective!

    The lack of inspiration from the title is also funny to read. To go from "Disco Elysium" to "ZERO PARADES DEAD SPIES" is going from subtle lighting to fuckin christmas lights everywhere.



  • The paragraph before:

    Over nearly 2,000 Claude Code sessions across two weeks, Opus 4.6 consumed 2 billion input tokens and generated 140 million output tokens, a total cost just under $20,000. Compared to even the most expensive Claude Max plans, this was an extremely expensive project. But that total is a fraction of what it would cost me to produce this myself—let alone an entire team.

    Saying the quiet part out loud about how they want to eliminate labor. Also I highly doubt that its a "fraction" of what human labor would have cost and I also doubt that the slopfest codebase it produced that chokes a 50 times slower compilation is competitive with a small team of CS undergrads who learn the same thing in class.


  • Loki doesnt really have a role to fill in the straw hat crew. Jinbe was the helmsman and the fishman representative of the crew, much like rogers and rocks crew. Also oda is already having trouble balancing the existing 10 straw hats so adding another "bruiser" wouldn't help matters.

    I very much see Loki as becoming the king of elbaph and allying with Luffy in the final war to protect elbaph. I don't think hajrudin can become the king of elbaph since he's already in the straw hat grand fleet. I think it would be a narratively appropriate way of being able to write uber powerful giants into the story but not have them trivialize everything since now elbaph will be focused on their own sovereignty rather than being on the offensive and attacking other factions.


  • Very nice chapter run. Loki's beast form is sick in how it just obliterates the sleeptids just by flying over them. We still have to see Loki's hybrid form which he presumably used to take down the possessed Harald. That just makes it all the more intriguing that Shanks was able to capture Loki.

    Sommers forcing the kids to walk to their deaths alongside their parents echoes his time during the god valley genocide where he did the exact same thing (which led him to losing to garling since he took so long in a darkly humorous way). Its interesting to see odas writing style transform in this sort of way where children are more centered in the narrative. Could this just be due to oda's own maturity as a father or the fact that one piece's story is about protecting the next generation.
