Lots of Bluesky vs Twitter chat today, so let me just point out that Bluesky is not currently awash with accounts trying to monetise and weaponise footage of a horrific incident in Liverpool, nor indeed is it full of deliberate disinformation about that incident. So that's something.

Scrapping the two-child benefit cap is the "cost effective way" of getting 500,000 children out of poverty, according to former Prime Minister Gordon Brown. He's right. Child poverty is and always has been a political choice. Labour should remove the cap immediately.

You receive a call on your phone. The caller says they're from your bank and they're calling about a suspected fraudulent payment. "Oh yeah," you think. Obvious scam, right? The caller says "I'll send you an in-app notification to prove I'm calling from your bank." 🧵 1/4

The Greens now have nearly 200 more councillors than Reform. This is not something you'd be likely to guess from all the copiously salivating media coverage of Farage & his crew of billionaire-backed far-right chancers.

I have a heavy brow, not delicate features, and with PCOS I have high levels of androgens - so can get quite hairy. I don’t wear make-up. I look a lot more masculine than a trans-women who passes well, so yes, I am worried about having to prove I’m a woman to use toilets and changing rooms.

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but 2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but 3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So 4. Now the LLM code points to malware.

If a new leader were in place before 11 July 2026, it would mean the party had the same number of leaders in ten years (7) as it did from 1940 - 1997.

I wonder if “woke” is the way that lazy opportunist selfish right wing pricks personify their own almost-silenced inner voice of self examination? Does it mean “conscience”, and they’ve externalised it, made it a villain, othered it? A Jiminy Cricket for the 21st Century narc baby.
