Politicians & pundits pit us against each other over bathroom signs, while CEOs get richer & we struggle to make ends meet. Scapegoating trans women for bathroom "dangers" deflects our anger from their profit while we fear, & distracts from the real threat to women: predatory men who assault/abuse

Als de volgende verkiezingen wéér over asielzoekers gaan, is dat m.i. grotendeels te wijten aan onze media. In de berichtgeving over persco Wilders is nauwelijks uitgezoomd en bv. uitgelegd dat het veelal gaat over *mensen* in nood, waaróm er wetten en regels zijn, dat die in ieders belang zijn, >

Hebben journalisten al opgepikt dat de VVD aansluiting lijkt te zoeken bij de door Big Tech gepushte anti-degrowth ‘techno-optimistische’ (e/acc) ideologie? Zou er graag over schrijven voor een betalend medium, of anders een mooie aanleiding om mijn Substack weer af te stoffen

Knife attack at Hamburg main station yesterday. 18 wounded, some seriously. Meet Muhammad Al Muhammad (19), Syrian refugee, who, together with guy from Chechnya, stopped Lydia S. (39) from doing more harm. The AfD, normally quite vocal in such matters, is oddly silent. archive.is/202505251408...

Today was art production print shop day, as @coolgirlemily.bsky.social had a ton of projects to finish and I helped by printing, binding, cutting, cyanotyping and whatnot. #art #artschool #bookbinding #cyanotype #printing

Het kost maar 15 minuten om verstrikt te raken in vrouwonvriendelijke hoeken van het internet, blijkt uit onderzoek van Argos en @groene.nl‬. Dit kan grote invloed hebben op jonge tieners. Docent Willemijn Zwart heeft een tip: "Leer het algoritme zo snel mogelijk dat je er chagrijnig van wordt."

Trans women protested topless outside Scottish Parliament this weekend. I love it when trans women hold topless demonstrations. If they're arrested, the state must admit they're women. If they aren't, it shows the contradictions of labeling trans women as legally male. It helps the cause either way

We're ready for Microsoft Recall and the automatic screenshots it takes of everything on your desktop. Signal Desktop on Windows now includes support for a new "Screen security" feature designed to block screenshots of your Signal chats. signal.org/blog/signal-...

What would you do if your sister was caught in the grip of Big Tech? @adelewalton.bsky.social is fighting back, most recently with a powerful book that exposes the system. Come talk with us! Register via librebook.eu/en_GB/event/.... Let’s work on a better digital future together.

Our next Community Focus interview takes us to Berlin, where we had a chat with Queer Analog Darkroom. They've created an inclusive space for individuals who face barriers to accessing knowledge about analog photography due to discrimination and marginalization. www.ilfordphoto.com/community-fo...

This needs googly eyes! @coolgirlemily.bsky.social

YouTube seriously put ads every three minutes in my new video. This is insane. This is such a huge deterrent for viewers, which in turn hurts the creator. If you don't manually adjust your ad breaks, this is apparently YouTube's new default. (New video is up tomorrow with only two ad breaks.)

Some good stuff coming up!

Our two Barbican shows go on general sale tomorrow (Friday) at 10am. Based on the pre-sale we think they'll go pretty quickly - good luck everyone! www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/202...

i talk often about space network stuff & the differences between terrestrial networks vs a network designed to blast off into space… but i have never actually designed one! you know who has? my brilliant mentor who will be doing a talk with me & @patrickgargano.bsky.social in june at cisco live ☺️

Hey look! We're playing the Barbican (twice) on Sat 1 November, with strings from the London Contemporary Orchestra. Mailing listers have a pre-sale link in their inboxes for tomorrow morning at 10am, but general sale is on Friday at 10am via the Barbican: www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/202...

I was fortunate to hear Judy Blank play some new and old tunes at EKKO and Doornroosje this weekend. Now living in Nashville, she was back in her birthplace The Netherlands for a mini-tour.

YouTube is now 20 years old. And my face has been on it for more than 80% of its lifetime. https://youtu.be/3WbCadQiV24 The oldest video on YouTube with me on camera has been up for sixteen years

I never really checked until now what domain registry in other countries costs. My god do we have a bargain here in .nl land! 😱

🌍🛰️How cool is this⬇️ ☂️Watch as our Biomass's antenna deploys in space!

Reposts this as I...*checks notes*....feature in a podcast. I could not agree more though. Journalism is not the same as having a chat or creating comedy.

I am morbidly obsessed with pronatalists so listened to this whole interview with the faces of the movement, the Collinses. I realised I’d never heard from them directly. I’m left more sure than ever that podcasts are the worst things to happen to journalism. open.spotify.com/episode/1NYk...

Thank you to everyone who’s donated so far! We’re very near the magic £1k which finds a mental health nursing scholarship (I think….) so please, if you’re feeling flush post-payday, do chip in a few coppers and as I prepare to walk 26 miles in a day
