Clinical psychologist, Dr. Graeme Hart, explained: “Beth was lucky to have been diagnosed with autism 20 years ago. She likely would have been missed today – she’s never even had blue hair.”

I think I first met Alan Yentob when he came over from the BBC to interview me for an episode of ARENA titled “I Thought I Was Taller: A Short History of Mel Brooks” around 1980. He was so bright and warm and engaging, I immediately knew I had found an important friend.

A reminder that none of this is true about AOC, it’s demonstrably and provably untrue, and it’s being pushed by the kind of C-list (ok, D-list?) celebs who flock to Trump and MAGA:

Most political commentators are too polite to say this, but Trump won because of his appeal to the most important voting bloc: morons. If the Democrats want to win again the answer isn’t becoming more left or more right, it’s coming up with dumb policies that morons like

LEFTIST: Dude, you need to grow up and get a hobby. Start treating women like people and find a useful role in society. RIGHT WING INFLUENCER: You’re a pussy. You’re a beta cuck. You’re poor because of the soy in your blood. Suck my dick, simp. YOUNG MAN: the liberals have left me no choice

I'm in the lab like this cooking up a candidate with FDR's politics and circa 2015 Trump's bullying skills

We obsess over the angry young men going Reform. But what of the anxious young women going Green? Desire for a politics that cares about global and local injustice is sharpening the political gender divide. - @gabyhinsliff.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Which is why. Please if you are a man who speaks to younger men - sometimes just use plain language, their language, and call them out for not being masculine.

As someone who believes ray tracing is one of the biggest scams in gaming, this video speaks to my soul.

Tragically I must inform everyone again that although there are many things about me that are gayjacent, I am in fact heterosexual.

The day Trump pardons Ghislaine Maxwell is going to be wild

Screamed my throat out at a session today, so viscerally that it made me lightheaded for a few seconds. But it was *real*. AI can’t match that, & I never want it to. As exhausting as it was, if someone hears it in the finished product and goes “hell yes”, it’s because WE connected in that moment.

ok 1-10, how cute do i look in this outfit? 💛

The intended experience

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social has it right - Labour's majority is not as safe as it may seem. In 202 seats, the combined Reform/Tory vote was bigger than the winning Labour candidate. And, if the polls are to be believed, Reform's support is only growing. A 6% swing is all it would take.

It’s not perfect but it’s a start 👌

Twittercels on a platform where they can’t get 500 likes from people with strong opinions on skull shape

so genAI is the perfect product for the worst kind of client: - won't wait patiently - won't talk the idea out human-to-human - resents having to pay money - resents the artist having copyright mandates all red flags, and artists should never work with someone who displays them

YOUR MUM'S A FAACKIN' SLUG

it's unfathomably messed up that the president of the United States is using the power of his office to go after a single high school kid.

The lesson Nigel Farage took from Brexit is that if you make unrealistic, clearly impossible promises, offer simplistic solutions to complex problems and blame immigrants for everything, people will vote for you, then not blame you when it turns out to be horse shit.

I wonder if Electoral Calculus and YouGov could update these graphics with the non-voters shown in numbers too. Non voters went up from ~15m to ~19m between 2019 and 2024 General Election. And the right wing rely on that apathy growing.

Nigel Farage seems confused about @greenparty.org.uk wealth tax. It’s a tax on assets over £10 million - not “virtually everybody.” The fact he thinks that will bother everyone exposes just how out of touch this millionaire mouthpiece for billionaire fossil fuel donors really is.

doctor: well mr. yoda, we fixed the language center of your brain. you should talk totally normal now yoda: thanks dude

pride is next week pride wasn't brought to you by delta air lines, microsoft, coca-cola or even the democratic party. it was brought to you by trans women throwing bricks at cops and lesbians taking care of gay men dying of AIDS during reagan. do not forget where we came from. now more than ever.

The biggest threat to ‘net zero’ in the UK isn’t the far right: it’s Labour aping their talking points and failing to tackle the austerity and inequality that drives their support. We have to marry these together. Some thoughts from me fraserjfstewart-17.medium.com/picking-up-b...

i am never more embarrassed to be british than when the government announces it will save our economy by investing in whatever pump-and-dump tech swindle is currently ongoing

I wrote about this in my newsletter but the idea that Bluesky has a uniquely hostile culture does not ring true to me. Twitter’s culture, especially at its peak, was so hostile that it lit people’s entire lives on fire if they tweeted something nice about their day that upset the wrong person
