i should be allowed to disable the call function on my phone

Sky News is deliberately endangering millions of women. Look at how they treat Gregg Wallace, compared to how they treat Nigel Farage and the Reform Party. youtube.com/shorts/cZq3z...

He's protecting his son, as any good father would. Meanwhile, let's wait for a story about Coke Junior's habits. apnews.com/article/hunt...

Snow flurries this morning. My neighbors are looking very plump and tender.

Shasta was resplendent this morning, coated in frost and snow. Our drive began in deep gloom but we broke out of it in time to see the mountain.

Anyone else finding themselves consciously rationing their outrage?

If you love beer and have logged at least 500 hours on Call of Duty, stay by your phone. You could be the next nominee for Secretary of Defense.

Reflections on Method for Critical Code Studies Critical code studies offers a crucial intervention for understanding the algorithms by studying source code through close reading techniques stunlaw.blogspot.com/2024/12/refl...

Accurate.

How to cope with an increasingly turbulent world? Currently, I'm cuddling with Mabel & avoiding reality entirely.

"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

Can't say I'm surprised.

Mona is getting so close to her goal— 96% of the way there! Folks, I know we can get her over her goal by the end of the year, and she can start the new year confident she has enough to get her family out of Gaza when the border opens. Donate and send me a screenshot— and you get a cat video

I would add that Labour’s relaunch reads as a list of policies they would like to enact if the plan works. But I don’t see a plan. In 2025 (in my view) they will have to either set the country on trajectory to rejoin SM and CU or align more closely with US. Rudderless mid-Atlantic is unsustainable.

Another day, another profoundly unserious piece on immigration. "At times, this will cost money". If you are "serious" about "tackling" this issue, have to start by acknowledging it will cost a huge amount of money or show any sign at all of having done any scoping of what it would involve.

Quite on point for the people who applauded seditionist Mike Flynn's pardon to be batshit over Hunter Biden being pardoned.

How to wear a Santa hat

one of my finest moments this year is that I held off going into labour until approximately twenty minutes after Himself filed our taxes early

We’re not accepting complaints about the Hunter Biden pardon unless you also complained about the Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, and Paul Manafort pardons.

a real life friend of mine got libs of TikTok’d a month or so ago and genuinely like, I know I’m preaching to the choir, but do not let this person have access to a single thing you post on here. so fucking dangerous and evil

The Nat'l Institutes of Health is the envy of the world. NIH-supported research has led to >100 Nobels; A discoverer of Hep C virus does research there. Advances in cancer, vaccines & HIV also occur at NIH. Now a grisly cabal of rightwing radicals wants to destroy it www.nytimes.com/2024/12/01/h...

Yesterday on @ck-game.bsky.social I stuck my 2 year old son in the dungeon until he expired. Just because I wanted his smarter 15yo sister to inherit the throne. Now she's using murder and mayhem to keep the Abbasids at bay. I'm with Richard. Sometimes you need to use the "downstairs nursery".

i honestly thought joe biden died like 2 months ago

Whether Biden’s reasoning for pardoning of his son is valid or not who can blame him for doing so after seeing what Trump and his criminal family have got away with.

Sorry this is so vague but if you're an academic asked to do consulting work for a major corporation, how do you go about picking a fee? Any pointers would be appreciated #academicsky

My Epiphyllum crenatum has given me a lovely show this year. It's such a shame that the flowers don't last very long. 🌱 #gardening

Which SHOULD be the bigger news scandal of the last 5days? Greg Wallace when accused of sexual misconduct, called them "middle-class women of a certain age". Nigel Farage when asked about his MP beating up his girlfriend: "You've had your fun, Sky News. I'm off to lunch." Which has more coverage?

If you see this, post fungi 🍄

So we have this narrative in the UK as well which handily ignores a) we have a resurgence of rickets and scurvy due to malnutrition and b) if people are stealing food FIND OUT WHY THEY ARE HUNGRY. But no, it’s wall to wall ‘supermarket gangs are stealing booze!’ And the posh are the ones buying.

Hello, December!👋 Here is the 1 day of winter! In December, winter lays down canvases, and frost builds bridges. The first frost pinch your cheeks, the snow-covered path sparkle with a million gems. Let this winter renew you and give you magical surprises ❄️🤗 #NaturePhotography #photography #Nature

Note for the upcoming holiday season,,, some of us are on a sobriety journey and mocktails or non-alcoholic beer options make a big difference 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

100%!! 👌🏼

If you voted Trump to lower costs, the next four years are going to be a real kick in the pants. Luckily, you won't be able to afford pants.

Today, I'm releasing the memes to a good home in the wild..

Has this been done yet

The take from the right seems to be, leftists don't understand how to negotiate and that these tariffs are another superior chess move by Dear Leader.

HOLY FORKING SHIRTBALLS THEY ACTUALLY DID IT INSTANT CLASSIC FUCK YEAH GO HEELS #cbb

After my son's team won the soccer game, the goalkeeper invited us to his house for a party. It was the father, the son, and the goalie host.

I'm deeply middle class, but still found it quite hard to locate someone with a job on the Home Office list, who'd known me 3+ years, to sign my passport application. Massively harder if you're newly arrived, applying for citizenship, and just don't know many people.

Yes. I’m up. But I’m not in the mood.

Trump said he plans to impose a 25% tariff on products imported from Mexico and Canada, framing the proposal as a response to the ongoing fentanyl crisis. Trump said that he would also seek to impose additional tariffs on China.
