“Contrarian thinkers” will be the death of us. Serious action on the biggest challenges of our time delayed for years because people with huge media platforms were “just asking questions”: “Is that trans person really human?” “Is that right arm really that salute?” “Is that iceberg really melting?”

No lande hath evir had but one language. Even the monolingual do not lyve wyth just one tongue. Historye ys polyglot, culture ys a glorious babel of invention, and lyfe itself ys made out of translaciouns.

Starmer told Farage where the firmly anchored values of every democratic Western politician lie. According to them, this Putin's poodle will never attain these. #politicsintheuk

Tony’s Chocolonely is giving me the same delicious feels as chocolate in the 80s. It’s both great and terrible for me simultaneously.

Thought I'd test the 'Caffe Nero has free British Newspaper Archives access myth' that was floating around on here recently - its true! Game changer considering QUB doesn't subscribe but there are approximately 500 million Caffe Neros on Botanic Avenue alone.

Three years ago today, Putin's tanks rolled into Ukraine, and Russian aircraft began bombing the country. Trump is lying. Russia started the war, not Ukraine. Putin is a dictator, not Zelensky.

There's this creeping movement in technology, of us becoming less and less owners of the things, the digital content we have bought. Amazon is changing the way you own books. Up til now, when you bought a book for your Kindle, you could back it up locally. Not any more, starting February 26th.

Meet the f*cker who controls every article you see on the BBC. Without his approval, not a word can be published. The two articles lying about Rachel Reeves are his responsibility. Handpicked by Tory scum Gibb in 2023. And we’re the ones footing his £220,000-a-year salary. #ukpolitics
