‘so, Dad, how did this all happen?’ ‘The unfunniest man on Earth was forced to buy Twitter’

“You can look at them and you can say: could be trouble.”

Musk ‘salutes’ his fans whilst parading Tesla’s through a 1930’s German town

Political cartoons are my kink.

A screenshot since it got deleted If you find yourself getting annoyed with a stranger in your replies, high chance they’re a bot Learn to spot their tells and/or just block because bot-like reply-guys who argue as a personality are kind of asking for it even if they are human, let’s be honest

Since the start of this year, Elon Musk has repeatedly posted about UK politics and grooming gangs at a significant rate. BBC Verify has examined a 24-hour snapshot of his X timeline and found a wave of misinformation amplified in the posts. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Maybe because middle class women of a certain age are in a position to call out this shit without fear of losing a salary they need. And can do it on behalf of young women starting out in their careers who are just as sick of this shit but can’t say anything because they need to earn a living.

Why did Jeff Bezos appoint Rupert Murdoch's right-hand man to the top job at Washington Post? To do his bidding. And when he did journalists & readers rebelled. This week, I write about a parallel revolt inside the Guardian & Observer & why press ownership matters open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

It's December 1st , I'm going for a slightly different advent this year– introducing 20 days of the worst fox hunting crimes from across the country with @huntsabs.bsky.social . Up first , the Avon Vale Hunt . . . We need a #RealBanNow

Hilariously satirical and deeply insightful, the latest Nut Roast episode skewers Dan Wootton's career and media tactics. Neil Sanders unravels the extreme views of political media figures and their damaging narratives. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...

The Times journalist who fought to get the story about the Reform MP who kicked his girlfriend multiple times @georgegreenwood.bsky.social tells how hard the newspaper had to right to get the information released. So who has been protecting the Reform MP?

This is fascinating.

Do you think Jeremy Clarkson knows what the "Together" movement is?

Notable that some of the leading online voices among the 'No Farmers No Food' lot are big 'twitter' and sm names that have pivoted from the anti-15-minute city, anti-vax and anti-lockdown movements to farming. I see too that a lot of the Spiked/RCP tendency are involved.

Beware, this "BBC Breaking News" account is fake. It's not an official BBC News account. If BBC News ever joins this platform, it'll be publicised via official BBC platforms.

What are the farmers planning?!?!!

Oh yeah? Name twenty-five of their albums.

How privatisation works (and Thames Water is just the latest example). 1. A government takes a national asset built up with taxpayers' money and the work of public servants over many years, and hands it, for a fraction of its value, to a private company. 2. In doing so, it creates a monopoly. 🧵

Beware the Day One dictator.

Ever believed something so ridiculous you cringe now? Welcome to my world. From believing the wildest theories to questioning EVERYTHING - this transformation was the hardest and most rewarding I've ever done, and I'm sharing it ALL on our podcast. Join us and discover where the truth lies!

So, I've decided that going forward, I'll occasionally share some of the tools that I use to work through (and understand) the chaos of modern politics, starting with my classification table that I used to write 'Bear Necessities'. It is dense with information, so let me know if it's coming up!

Hello blue skies... I've been threatening to spend more time here, and it does feel very refreshing realtive to The Other Place 😬 Many thanks to @yorksbylines.bsky.social for publishing my new article about 'The Shameless Normalization Of Far-Right Discourse'. Hope to spend more time here.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

🦋 Tip. If, like me, you miss being notified when your favourite accounts post you can add them to a list and then pin that list to your home page.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

NEW: The great Trump-Musk crackdown is coming. And it will hit hard & fast. Journalists will be first. But everyone else is next. I urge you to read my 20 lessons in How to Survive the Broligarchy, inspired by & featuring the great @timothysnyder.bsky.social 1/ www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I don’t think people realise how hard & fast this is going to hit. Absolutely chilling.

Need a new home for my posts from the other place so I'll be posting some here. This was the day I replied to a job vacancy on Facebook eight years late.

Musk’s own AI identifies him as a major dissemination of misinformation online

Rape apologists electing rapists who appoint rapists to take away the rights of millions to their own body - including rape victims.

That Adam Brooks prick from GB News has opened an account here “to laugh at the left”. Wow. 🙄

Update: His health guy doesn't believe in medical science. His law guy is a sex trafficker. His intelligence gal is a Russian asset. You're all caught up.

Hey to those that have Xodused, X-ited, Xcreted or have felt Xpelled. I have written up 6 articles (more being sorted too) explaining functions and stuff. It might be beneficial to have a look...

Novavax has been approved. I'm hoping that pharmadoctor.co.uk will be able to supply it soon. www.gov.uk/government/n...
