Ride a bike along that path and you'd be a social pariah. Dickish parking like has become socially acceptable though. We need to punish selfishness like this hard.

They fired a top Black general and are replacing him with a much less-qualified white general. They’re not hiding the racism.

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity. TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

Kudos to Gov. Janet Mills of Maine for standing up to Trump. He threatened loss of federal funds for her state simply because it allows trans girls to play in sports. She said, “See you in court.” Trump is a weak, shallow, callous leader who wants desperately to be a despot. #BullyPolPot

Nigel Farage used #Cornwall's fishermen as poster-boys for Brexit. They were screwed over along with everyone else. Conmen often return to people they've fooled before in the hope that they can do it again. That's why Farage is in Cornwall tomorrow. cornwall.greenparty.org.uk/farage-is-in...

The lack of any serious consequences for bad and risky driving contributes to danger on our roads and the terrible toll of road death and serious injury. The cost to society is huge we really should be paying this more attention. 👇

How sad it is that enough people - including the previously liberal - fell for the fear-mongering against trans people and this wedge issue helped return Trump to power and now we see the terrible cost that must be paid by both the trans community and many others too

A democratically-run political party. Wow, what a radical idea. Nigel Farage claims to have handed Reform UK over to its members, however the leader still has huge amount of control and cannot be easily removed. The Green Party is run democratically by our members. Join today ⤵️

I've said often, based on history, that there's no reasonable expectation most people will be courageous in the face of fascism. Bravery is rare. It's valued for a reason: Most people aren't cut out for it, for reasons good and bad. But man, you'd still sorta hope the ABA woulda held the line.

Had a chat with BBC London yesterday about parking fines going up. The reason parking rules exist is to keep streets safe for people to cross the road and access dropped kerbs if needed. (And of course - no one who parks carefully should get a ticket).
