Fifty, female and furious - it just can’t be that hard to be a decent human but somehow the worst people seem to be the most amplified (looking at Trump/Farage etc)

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

We did. It's called Brexit. And it fucked up our entire country. www.thetimes.com/culture/musi...

Hello! It doesn’t cost anything to repost but it helps me spread the word about my small business. My online shop is full of bold & colourful prints, homewares, accessories and stationery. I’m also available for freelance design work and art licensing. gailmyerscough.co.uk

Worth a watch: Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

Brilliant cut through of the situation happening Stateside. The issues with Brexit and our workforce are eerily similar.

Right now there are Israeli & Russian troll farms trying to drive a wedge between people worldwide, they understand that the diversity of the western left is easy to co-op and how to create tribal divisions that make you act against your mutual interests. The fascists are united, you should be too.

So completely opposite to Trump. This is how I see a Leader and Statesman.

MILLIONS have now watched this film and more become aware of the shocking nuked blood scandal every day. It’s not going away on my watch

Love this

it’s very simple: if a woman deletes her account, i assume she got tired of being harassed. if a man deletes his account, i assume women got tired of being harassed by him.

This is an excellent visual explainer about Iran's nuclear capacity before the Nuclear Agreement of 2015, the success of the Agreement, and the disastrous consequences of Trump cancelling it in 2018. He caused the situation we're confronted with today. Credit to the poster in the end.

We are posting this placard at all of our offices and asking our union contract farms to post as well. We encourage our friends to put up similar placards at their business as immigration agents do not have the right to go on private property without permission.

Really?🤦🏼‍♀️ These posts pop up periodically and are mind numbingly tedious. Is TFL being “racist against white people” by offering an internship to those with a minority ethnic background? Or is it possible there’s more to this than the screenshot and tweet suggest?🤷🏼‍♀️ 🧵1/10

This is one of the most powerful things you’ll watch online or TV. It puts the Tories, and in particular Kemi Badenoch, to shame. Not to mention anyone else who has tried to use the horror of the grooming gangs for political point-scoring.

This read could save a life 👇🏻

🚨 We have less than 24 hours left 🚨 Join over 8,000 people and ask your MP to decriminalise abortion 👇 goodlaw.social/f2eef3

😂👏🏻

You can support Palestinian people with all your heart but this honestly doesn’t mean you must also support Iran, which treats women worse than any animal, and whose regime definitely shouldn’t have any form of nuclear weaponry. It’s really weird to watch people siding with it.

Says the man who negotiated the biggest act of self-harm in our history, then killed thousands during Covid by being a dithering fool, then threw away his massive majority because he couldn't follow his own rules. Sit down and shut up you useless tit.

I have emailed my MP and asked them to support this amendment. The link below makes it incredibly easy to do the same, and if you are a UK resident I very strongly encourage you to do so. Abortion is critical healthcare and we must decriminalise it NOW.

THREAD: Misinformation about the Los Angeles protests The claim in this viral tweet that US Marines have arrested the chief master sergeant of the California National Guard for opposing President Trump's orders is baseless and false. RealRawNews is a notorious fake news website.

Martin Phillip Fjellanger Let this man go viral Los Angeles

FFS why are the BBC, political parties and others so determined to appease the Reform vote? They have never had an issue ignoring the smaller parties ie Lib Dem’s who on paper have just as good a story re increasing their MPs. Why do they pander to/push the far right narrative?

Trump supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 and Trump didn't call in the National Guard.

Probably the most dangerous thing in politics is when a leader needs conflict - when he depends on conflict for his political power, maybe knows no other way to hold on to power.
