Prince Andrew stripped of titles and will leave Royal Lodge
The removal of the royal titles marks an extraordinary intervention by King Charles III.Ferdinand Knapp (POLITICO)
Me acabo de encontrar con este bicho en mi trabajo.
Confieso que, a pesar de ser yo un alto defensor de la naturaleza, hay todavía cositas que me causan repulsión.
Es culpa mía, lo sé.
Busqué con Lens de Google.
Se trata de la «Xylophanes Pluto -la esfinge de Plutón- una polilla de la familia Sphingidae. La especie fue descrita por primera vez por Johan C. Fabricius en 1777».
Se parece a una mariposa verde, pero gruesa. De pronto se me parece a los aviones antiguos.
¡Que no vuele, porfi! 🤞

The true etymology of "woke" was explained to me by a Black man from the west side of Chicago:
Every Black child remembers this moment of transition: they've heard about race prejudice, the race line. But it's an abstraction until that first time some white bigot treats them poorly because they're black.
"Who? Me? Is this bigot singling me out because I'm black?" It's the sound of a thousand doors slamming shut, that thud of recognition - he hates me because I'm black.
That child is now Woke.
The phrase was "Stay woke". Stay aware of prejudice, don't accept it, even if it is a fact of life. Yes, you are different, stay woke to its meaning.

My cousin sent me some negatives from the 1960s. I quickly rigged up an ad hoc scanner and converted the negatives to positives. I only recognize my cousin Dorothy (family nickname "Dabby) in these shots -- everyone else is a mystery to me.
Prediction: if OpenAI IPOs with a $1Tn market cap, that will absolutely be the high water mark of the AI bubble and will trigger the subsequent collapse (they're losing $11.5Bn a quarter and have revenue around $20Bn/year). Such an IPO would allow the main investors to cash out. A valuation of 50x annual revenue is just bonkers.

in reply to Charlie Stross • • •after the pig-thing I don't think a chicken has any weight, & live boy isn't illegal now (like it was when that was coined). so with just those choices I'm going for 'dead girl.'
(My view is that somebody or something got to Charles - could be as simple as him feeling mortality in an ordinary sense & remembering Phillip's obsession with how his family lost their throne; or he could have medical news; either way, reason for the action being to clear away impediments for William.)

in reply to FeralRobots • • •@FeralRobots There's the recent allegations about the King's uncle, Louis Mountbatten, being a paedophile: dunno why it's gaining traction now, though, as the FBI files were declassified in 2019:

in reply to Charlie Stross • • •@FeralRobots Has the King done something recently to annoy the oligarchy? Stories like that often tend to get traction when he's annoyed somebody by not shutting up about maybe we shouldn't trash the planet.
(Yes, I know he's one of the wealthiest people in the world, but I don't think he's a member of the oligarchy. Cares too much about a) other people and b) the planet.)
