@greenparty.org.uk hey i would love to join but i really really don't want to give you my phone number. can you reconsider this being a mandatory requirement for membership please?

A lot of my personal political project right now is trying to re-materialise tech which has been delibarately obfuscated so we can be sold more shit faster with greater surveillance. Spotify was fascinating to break down and think about the bits that make it up. I'm happy to now be rid of it tho!

Oscar Wilde once wrote that “the problem with socialism is that it takes up too many evenings”. Possibly there is no greater culprit for these lost evenings than the scourge of consensus decision making, @kim.town vents. gfsc.community/consensus-de...

SORRY

starting to realise vibe coding is unironically a form of gambling where if you just put your chips (ai usage tokens) on the right numbers (enter the right prompt) you too can win a passive income saas

when is pride but for annoying people, feeling very left out

"A leftist government doesn't exist because being on the left has nothing to do with governments" - Deleuze

if one thing has been abundantly demonstrated the last few years its power does what it wants and any indication to the contrary (i.e. north european democratic institutions) is an optical illusion when the thing power wants lines up with whats best for the institions too

i don't know who needs to hear this but if you're in a community/activist group that doesnt pay, is not fun, and you don't directly need it for survival, then you're almost certainly a source of burnout for you and your community

Starmer: "My 'not bad at politics' shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt"

Just went for my annual gender clinic checkup GIC: So what can we help you with? Me: I had my 8 laser facial hair removal sessions and need some more. I’d also like to get my tits lasered is that possible? G: No, that’s all the sessions you can have, and we only do neck up

close, will barely be able to tell the difference

formalising structures that emerged informally is about the hardest thing to do ive found so please enjoy this piece where i try to do just that lol

ngl after a couple decades of the queer scene being people trying to get tenure writing papers like "Re-un(under)-fucking the Queer(-ed) k/commons: how huffing poppers in Manchester basements reinterprets the liminal spaces of being/knowing" its nice to see everyone getting a bit materialist again

been watching the last of us and love this exchange: tommy: "everything you see in our town? all shared" joel: "so, uh. communism" tommy: "nah it aint like that" maria: "it's exactly like that, you live in a commune, we're communists" www.tiktok.com/@hbo/video/7...

if i could commission anything in the star wars universe, it would be a dark comedy about a DEI officer working for the empire on coruscant. show me coruscant corporate pride. show me the drafting of the empire's autism at work policy. show me the tech for good accelerator sponsored by the ISB.

my talk from last week in edinburgh!

can we just ban men from djing in bars please sandbar tonight had the worst dj in the entire world. the sound system was awful, the records were awful, the mixing was awful, it was turned up to 20 and noone was dancing nevertheless, he persisted and noone stopped him truly how does this happen

Can anyone reccomend any open source #knowledge management / #archival software suitable for making a public document repository of various electronic documents? (boosts welcome)

so much of british politics seems entirely defined by institutions' unwillingness to tell even a single posh karen to fuck off

i updated my definition of what an absolute loser is, and sorry to say you're now on the list

the tories could do the funniest thing now and rebrand as a centrist one nation tory john major-esque government, taking the actual centre which labour just gave up

slowly realising our government is modelling itself after one of the most sinister figures imaginable: the reply guy

Is there anything cuntier than the adjective form of empire being imperial? So chic.

if theres one thing i wish the left would work on its prioritising pedagogical safety over needing to be right all the fucking time

which man and which woman tho

Got my eyebrows done for the first time and it felt sooooo dramatic at first but finally getting used to it lol

reserved a table for dinner and i have 5 emails about it and have been signed up to a rewards program lol. we are so in the bad timeline.

imagine watching the terminator and thinking "imagine how rich id be if i started skynet" thats literally the tech billionares lol

pretty sure season 3 of the white lotus was just one long advert for designer bags. awful, don't bother.

wondering if one of the reasons spy movies and tv shows are so popular is its just a nice fantasy to imagine working in a functional institution

just a headsup my bank Nationwide (@nationwideuk.bsky.social) refused to accept an unenrolled deed poll to chage my middle name today. from a quick google i think this is possibly illegal, but maybe other trans people will want to give them a miss.

Really enjoyed a trial of omnigraffle but repeatedly baulking at the full purchase price. Before I close my eyes and do it does anyone have any other suggestions for mac diagramming software that doesn’t suck and isn’t a monthly charge?

New terf womanhood test just dropped: can you complete flappy bird on the pelvic floor trainer?

this is prob gonna take a few more passes to make sense to anyone ive not been working with the last few years but super happy to get it into the wild

a lot of things have spoken to starmers character this last few months but perhaps none more than the fact he hasnt resigned yet

enormous sigh, esp after having to go to some lengths to disable it

Being trans level 1: pet a kitten Level 99: kill god

according to government stats there are 2.82 million landlords and 262k trans people in the uk so you are 10 times more likely to share a public toilet with a landlord than a trans person. suddely so much about the uk makes sense to me.
