Eurgh In Technobabylon's sequel, I've been writing a side-plot in which the US withheld support from countries that didn't remove the vote from women I really wish reality would stop trying its hardest to catch up with what would have been a crazy joke statement a few years ago

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

Never used reddit before, but I'm gratified that the first topic I've posted has managed in a day to accrue over three thousand...likes? Upvotes? Whatever one calls them

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

by the way these are literally the exact same dumbass motherfuckers, not like them, the literal exact same fucking guys, saying government is inefficient and you should cancel it to give them all the governments money so they can provide you services instead

Wasn't really feeling character modelling today, so I made another fictional brand/advert. The name "Salmon en Route" came to me in a hallucination, so I'm not exactly sure what they do or sell, except that it involves salmon.

Freedom of Movement was robbed from us by a successful Russian influence operation and the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history. Please repost if you want it restored.

That feeling when you're measuring with a ruler that you think is just American, but then it turns out that the foot is divided into tenths-of-a-foot, rather than inches

I’m seeing a lot of soft takes from industry mutuals at the moment that we shouldn’t be so hard on those who use generative AI because it’s becoming harder and harder to resist. Wrong. Betraying your ethics (and your peers) because ‘everyone else is doing it’ does not suddenly make it acceptable.

It costs money for GB News to pump hate into Britain's homes. Much of that money comes from Sky, which also makes much play of being a force for good. We've made it so easy for you to write and politely ask Sky's Chief Executive to stop funding hate. action.goodlawproject.org/sky-stop-fun...

First they came for trans people, and I did not speak out Because I was not trans. Anyway then they put me in a forced labor camp for taking SSRIs

Would that I could still sign (eurgh), so could any Europeans I know get in on this for me, please?

Canadian friends. Follow this link to Elections Canada and ask: "Please investigate Elon Musk and 'X' for their potential foreign interference in our Canadian elections." We won't become Musk and co's 51st state. This is one way we stop it. csep-pesc.elections.ca/en-CA/intake...

Talk of Elon Musk donating £100m to Reform should've been a major wake up call for the government We cannot allow billionaires and oligarchs to interfere in our democracy That's why I'm proud to co-sponsor my @libdems.org.uk colleague @mp4stratford.bsky.social's Bill to cap these donations today👇

Allow me to start counter-balancing this by saying that far-right politicians are more likely to be shape-ahifting reptilian infiltrators from the fifth dimension

I wrote this bit that is entirely unrelated to current things

Didn't realise I even *had* Counter Strike: Condition Zero until yesterday, so naturally the first thing I've done to it is crack open its gooey insides to examine its models.
