Forcing autistic people to make eye contact is abusive. We need a society that works for autistic people, not the other way around.

Farage is claiming ReformUK "really are now the party of working people". So why do they want to block access to cheaper renewable energy? Onshore & offshore wind with large-scale solar power are by far the cheapest ways to generate electricity in this country writes Prof Richard Murphy 👇

All you need to do this is someone in Parliament on any side who doesn't have any dodgy connections themselves. Anyone want to step up? #NoIAmNotDefendingTheTwatFarage

If you're stuck for something to do this bank holiday weekend why don't you write a poem and enter it for the Ironbridge Poetry Comp. It closes on Monday. pandemonialists.co.uk/ironbridge-p...

Last night, @pandemonialists.bsky.social hosted another helping of PASTA, with a first half theme of 'wheels'. None of PPP had actually got round to writing a poem, so I thought I'd best give it a go, and came up with this. It'll do.

The left needs a Joe Rogan who is 300 feet tall and plays a tiny little fiddle. And when he gets angry he huffs and puffs but he's calmed down by a good friend who is a regular-sized elephant but looks teeny by comparison. Just absolutely itsy bitsy. And both of them are extremely anti-circumcision.

I had a lovely time in Ely. What a great bunch they are at Fen Speak. I loved the open mic performances. It was also great to bump into @robinince.bsky.social on the high street earlier in the day :) I hope your book signing and performance went well, Robin.

In the infinite variety of human existence there’s gotta be someone out there who doesn’t get music stuck in their head, has no clue what an ear-worm is, and finds the concept completely alien when people talk about it. It’s maybe not even uncommon!

The Israeli authorities have illegally banned all aid and goods into Gaza for two months. This constitutes a genocidal act, a blatant form of unlawful collective punishment, and the war crime of using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare.
