I'm reading the report behind these headlines about glyphosate and it may be the most scientifically illiterate thing I've come across (although it's a close thing with the recent MAHA report). 1/n

The first week of Pride is Bisexual Crime Week. So if you see a bisexual committing a heist or assassination mission this week, just check your privilege and mind your own business maybe?

Just a wee reminder that if you like someone's work - their book, their song, their art – then telling others about it really helps. That's particularly true for work by people from marginalised groups – they're often excluded by gatekeepers who prefer to spotlight the male, the pale and the stale.

So, Dept Q on Netflix. If you did a shot for every detective show cliché you’d be in the hospital: - a self-important grumpy lead who doesn’t play by the rules - he’s a genius who others grudgingly respect but can’t stand because of how he is - trauma from action in the line of duty….

I discovered yesterday, in a mass email sent at 3am, that I will not be receiving the roughly £40,000 that my publisher Unbound/Boundless owes me for pre-order sales of The Paradox Paradox. The payment for five years of work, gone. #unboundless

As an aside: DO NOT ORDER THE PAPERBACK. I notice they’re still saying it’ll be published by Unbound. It won’t. I got my rights back and will be finding a new home for it soon. If you’ve preordered, ask for a refund. amzn.eu/d/6l5Nfvy

Since the dawn of information technology - literally the Gutenberg era - tech entrepreneurs have been trying to convince people that their new way of delivering information would be killed if they had to actually pay for the information they were making money delivering. This story is 400 years old.

“I agree with Nick.” Kill the industry, you say? That sounds tough for that industry. Which industry was that again? Oh. The stealing industry? Maybe killing that industry wouldn’t be such a bad thing? Considering it’s kind of a bad industry. Unlike the other one, which it’s currently killing.

Yet more evidence for my feeling that private equity is a menace. If essential facilities like care homes can’t be provided by the public sector, they should be strictly regulated, including on price.

Rees-Mogg has been completely consistent on this, and better than many in Labour. The stripping of citizenship was a terrible and worrying act. Begum was British, was radicalised here and is our responsibility - she should be tried here.

Today is May 17 - International Day against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia. Homosexuality was only removed from the World Health Organisation classification of disease in 1990. Scarily recently. We need to be united now more than ever. The forces of evil are genuinely circling.

the good thing about having a free press is that when a politician says "the democrats lost the 2024 election because they spent too much time talking about trans rights", journalists are able to point out that isn't true. they don't, obviously. but they are ABLE to, and that's the main thing!

I've opened up an online shop to sell some books out of my cupboard, and I'll sign them if you want. While I wait for Unbound to cough up what was meant to be my book earnings for the last couple of years, it seems only sensible. Dive in! Limited stocks... www.gralefrit.co.uk/shop.html

I’m getting really fucking bored of this regulation of when someone can display a pride flag. Literally anyone who wants to argue that pride flags are controversial or political are homophobic and we shouldn’t be pandering to them. www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7524275

The Administration has arrested a judge in WI and a mayor in NJ, and is threatening to arrest federal lawmakers. In any other country we would say the strongman's security forces are locking up political opponents. We need to treat it exactly that way here. www.axios.com/2025/05/10/t...
