🧵She’s also just posted something on LI. ‘It's not about who can and can't come in' - but it is. She made it the conversation point. Possibly to gain traction to get more sign ups? Who knows. Talking about providing what has been missing.... and then not actually providing it despite promising.

Yeah sex is cool but have you ever cleaned your fridge so hard that it looks new and then forgotten all about it until you next opened it?

Somehow got Hotline Bling stuck in my head, but upon reflection at least now I know it’s about some f’boy being butthurt the girl he was banging lost interest after he left town.

Also: after getting Hercule (the goose) I went for solo pho, and had my faith in humanity restored by happenstance. I had to share table space with stranger who was happy to talk, and he was also queer and from the marketing world. Gotta love soho.

Todays dopamine hit. It’s dopamine, not dopayours.

I sat down with Outvertising's @sonniesopinions.bsky.social to talk through the ethical and business cases for why brands should consider reducing ad spend on Meta platforms in response to the company's content moderation changes.

Today’s dopamine: accidentally whipping up a storm. I fear I ate.

Dopamine hit of the day;

Regardless of whether the anti-trans stuff in the US can actually be implemented or withstand judicial scrutiny, it has significant narrative power, and will be used to legitimise and justify further violence against trans people the world over.

Statement from GLAAD on Trump's discriminatory executive order on transgender health care:

The trouble with cutting down on doom scrolling is that my dopamine quest appears now utterly fixated on…. [checks notes] … tracking down a very specific Winnie The Pooh sweater only available at Disneyland. 🤷

per my last wtf

🧵In Adland, our colleagues from the LGBTQIA+ community earn on average £7,161 less than their heterosexual counterparts – which is approximately a 10% pay gap. Out of those who earn £100k, only 13% are from the LGBTQIA+ community.

Devon needs help. She’s in the middle of changing her identity to restart her life to escape DV - but the new EO means she might not only be tied to her old name forever, but her new docs will have the wrong gender marker on them. Please help if you can. www.gofundme.com/f/support-a-...

Without downloading new pics/vids where are you mentally?

The naziism isnt happening if you close your eyes and stick your fingers in your ears is it

Stop doomscrolling. I can’t speak highly enough of the @wearequeeraf.com newsletter. If you can afford campaign you can afford them.

TikTok is rolling out updates that allow you to turn up/down elements of the content you see via sliding scale. I think it’s US only users currently but I am very interested to know when it lands here. Please let me know 🫡

omg you’re here?? bluesky just peaked

Proud to also say that not only have I been published today but I am also getting hate messages on linked in. Really feeling like I’m famous right now 🤣🫶

"Human epitome of masculinity Mark Zuckerberg saw an opportunity to strike a nail in TikTok’s coffin and cosy up to Donald Trump, at the bargain price of throwing LGBTQIA+ communities under the bus." Strong words by @outvertising.bsky.social's Sonnie Spenser. uk.themedialeader.com/we-need-an-e...

🧵Last week, Meta announced a number of drastic changes to its Hateful Conduct Policy that intentionally enables harmful content against LGBTQIA+ people, denies their existence, and fuels hate.

💻 The next time you're called mentally ill for being gay or trans on Instagram, Threads or Facebook, it won’t be in violation of the platform's policies. www.wearequeeraf.com/meta-will-al...

Elsewhere, on the worst timeline- [FYI “We can’t be expected to comment on pure fiction,” said TikTok.]

The exciting part of a new platform is cultivating the feed. Do I want social justice horrors, environmental horrors, or existential horrors? Hm, professional horrors seems a good option.

I did not need to start my year desperately needing validation from another app. F u, meta. This is your fault But also I have missed yeeting my written nonsense into the void, so

💻 Point blank allowing calling trans people "freaks" is not about allowing free speech: It's about allowing hate speech. This is what LGBTQIA+ people need to know about a week where big tech, including Apple, Meta and TikTok aligned with Trump 🧵

I’m writing an op-ed about Meta, and I am *absolutely* going to use the word ‘clusterfuck’. All those in favour, say ‘aye’

As I’m new here I’m going to need you all to direct me to the cute animal feeds please.

Might as well, I guess.
