My friend Marvina is the leader of a small family of trans women fleeing persecution in South Sudan. Now they are about to be evicted. Please give what you can to help. They are looking for $200 to pay for another month of rent. Your money = extra time to find permanent refuge. Link below.

6 Nov 2025 -- Lost in the news last night, a small PA town elects state's first transgender mayor. Eria Deuso of Downington (30 miles west of Philly) won 64% to 35% over her Rep. rival. Can the statehouse be far away? @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

We tried to place this story - very expensive polling, the first of its kind, strong quantitative data about what trans people feel about Britain: bluntly there is no better way to tell the story - with the BBC but it said it was "too weak". But it will pick up any old piece of transhating garbage.

The piss tank on the ISS is now 69% full.

Solidarity with all trans and intersex people having their existence debated every time a tv host hasn't done their prep and can't think of any more questions

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world,... I feel like I can't take it. And my heart is just going to cave in.

Imagine this happening in the UK and not having to sigh 'what do their parents do?' every time you hear about a new band. Wouldn't it be great to hear music from somebody who isn't directly related to the Lord Admiral Wythenshawe Bloodfeast MP, the Butcher of Bangalore?

as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious" I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge. We know exactly how LLMs work.

A very big thanks to my colleague Vladislav for the lovely photos, while Prathibha and I chatted about her upcoming presentation. No I will never turn down an opportunity for a photoshoot mid-physics.

This is a pretty good bit

He’s done fucking what

Spider-Man on the Genesis has the best continue screen I've ever seen in a video game.

transsexualism will win. this is basically the only thing i know

I hadn't realized that AI companies were pushing this stuff on us at a loss. It really makes them sound like coke dealers trying to get people hooked. But like, with a version of cocaine that sucks and is no fun

Parliament and Hansard have removed “We are all Palestine Action” from my speech on Wednesday 2 July 2025 — despite me saying it. This is a blatant attempt to censor me and rewrite the record. This is not how a democracy behaves. We will not be silenced.

Steve Coogan with some home truths for Starmer, accusing him of paving the way for the fascists. www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

“Coogan spoke to the Guardian ahead of an address to the annual Co-op Congress in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, where he called for locally led grassroots movements to assemble across Britain and take back control from “multinational institutions and billionaires”.

Good morning, cheer up

Sunrise in Gränby, Uppsala; and Uppsala Slott.

Been a while since I’ve bleated so I’m gonna share my new favourite selfie, taken yesterday. God I fucking love being a woman.

They’re absolute morons! We’re being oppressed by total airheads! AHHHH

This moment when the penny drops that trying to implement bathroom bans is an impossibility for the former Tory Chief Secretary Simon Clarke is delicious.

if you weren't there already, this should be the loud and clear message just how dependent upon the global south's exploitation your comfort is

val kilmer’s turn in TOP SECRET is one of the single best comedy performances ever committed to film, both in terms of comic precision and mechanical virtuosity. just watch this whole clip in its entirety; it’s stunning

rip Isaac Newton you would have loved Outer Wilds

the mentaculus really works, dad!

Quite happy with the art for this episode. Tried to pay homage to Mattie's wonderful big-eyed characters.

When I worked in UK academia I recall hearing of a Japanese man who was baffled at how Britain had decided to run its universities like firms. “Why? Your universities are excellent and your firms are terrible.”

THIS is what machine learning is good for

So chuffed that I finally got to wear a nice dress today, felt amazing in this look 🥰

Happy ten years to this bad boy.

ordered a cocktail called "my little coconut" at dinner and when the server handed it to me he said "my little coconut" and then for the rest of the meal he just referred to me as "my little coconut," extremely funny A+ bit

@chekhovsbum.bsky.social and I just invented a new sociological theory describing Britain: The Children of Paddington paradigm, in which the degree of positivity of the UK or any of its facets can be measured by on a scale of Children of Men to Paddington. I dunno I reckon it’s got legs.

me in the criterion closet: oh, yes, this is the one *pulls out a copy of Bionicle: Mask of Light I had inserted into the collection myself* crucial film making

I believe the general internet tradition on these kinds of things is well known. techcrunch.com/2023/04/21/m...

The failure to reckon with transphobia as a currently central motivation of the far right will continue to plague those disturbed by its rise for a decade or more Rather than standing with trans people many liberals have pursued appeasement and helped the wider shift to the far right in the process
