Ask yourselves how much it makes sense to have a camera on every door looking out at your kids and reporting that back to American oligarchs’ AI repositories.

I'm very excited to share this, it's something I've been working on for a while... My second book is coming out later this year! And not only can you preorder this bevvy of beautiful blokes, you can get a whopping 25% off at @waterstones.bsky.social

Is it wrong that a world where anything @tomski.com can dream is immediately built scares me a bit? I'm realising now that it's not omnipotent, omniscient AI that I'm really scared of, it's Tom's imagination. The world isn't ready for this.

Read and share all over..he nails it

There is no LGB without the T. We rise together and we fall together. Part of my speech in Parliament for LGBTQ+ History Month:

The USA is a party to the Geneva Conventions (1949) mandating humane treatment, forbidding torture, and protecting against outrages on personal dignity.

💥 GOOD. Because that £240 million contract gifted to Palantir, with no competition… …after Starmer had an off-the-books meeting with Mandelson and Palantir… …while Mandelson was officially LOBBYING FOR Palantir and so personally financially benefiting from such links and contracts… Stinks.

Name them shame them

Somebody should invent a socioeconomic system which is good at allocating resources

"As co-chair, Beth, now 68, faced down intimidation from anti-trans groups to oversee a vote that cemented the Association’s inclusive ethos in 2024. It was, she says, 'the hardest thing I have ever done, and also the thing I’m the most proud of.'"

Your email has found me cold and shamed, lying naked on the floor.

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

Awful abuser behaviour :(

If he's boneless what exactly do they expect to find?

Straight women with gay male friends: constantly trying to get them to tell them their boyfriend/husband is fit Straight women with lesbian friends: constantly trying to get them to believe their boyfriend/husband is acceptable

The Washington state Senate voted Wednesday to ban law enforcement from covering their faces in response to growing concerns over masked federal immigration agents. washingtonstatestandard.com/2026/01/28/w...

Be wary of people calling themselves the "silent majority" because they are never silent and most definitely not the majority. Even mobilising every gender critter in the UK they could only muster a few thousand objections

Here's CE Lord OBE's take on this morning's High Court's Hampstead Ponds decision.

I’m at a Kemi Badenoch speech in London where she will take aim at other parties’ “psychodrama” and say the Tories are getting on with the job - while also, curiously, taking a pop at Tory centrists, seemingly in response to Andy Street and Ruth Davidson raising a few polite concerns.

Saw this and thought of you @dinahrose.bsky.social

How fares the King

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

I've got a bad feeling about this @bbolander.bsky.social

"None of this GENDER nonsense! The kids should read Shakespeare!"

Weird criticism to level at a play about a historical time period in which every single female stage role was performed by a person with a penis

"The number of trans people is simultaneously presented as so large that their participation in data projects jeopardizes the quality of information gathered (), yet also so small that their concerns about how they are counted can be ignored ()" Well worth your time reading this:

while trump insanely claims greenland and threatens our closest friends, american power ‘elites’ - especially business ‘leaders’ - are on mute. shame on them. they stand for nothing but their own hides.

Trump is soliciting $1 billion to join his Board of Peace. He would then control the money. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

FIFA could probably avert war here with a straightforward promise to move the World Cup from the US if it takes any military action in Greenland.

A real “tell your parents” paper (since everyone on Bsky is canonically 38). Review of 21 studies of ppl over 50: • Shingles vax associated w/47% lower risk of Alzheimer’s, 24% lower risk of any dementia • Pneumonia vax had 36% lower risk of Alzheimer's • Tdap had 33% lower risk of any dementia

Please, Matt, send me a cease and desist, so I can stop doing this

People performatively mispronouncing Irish names is one of my pet paimhs

well, this looks like some suitable weekend reading ... "AI systems are built to function in ways that degrade and are likely to destroy our crucial civic institutions." "How AI Destroys Institutions"

In which @mysociety.org reveal the absolute guddle that underpins UK political donation declarations. It could be so much more straightforward. research.mysociety.org/html/leaky-p...

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

A huge chunk of our political class has "book-you-see-in-an-airport" brain. Just no interest in rigour.

Baroness Jenkin should be ashamed of herself for being a transphobic PoS. Not content with policing people's access to toilets she now wants to control what clothes they wear. "Gender critical" was never about safety. It's about bigotry and control.

January is bleak with nothing happening EXCEPT you can come to the London Metropolitan Archives for my talk on sexuality in the capital during the Second World War, from the cover of the blackout to LGBT+ lives AND new research on the mackintosh fetish scene: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/men-at-war...

Following coverage over the weekend of Sir Paul Nurse's comments that suggested that the only reason that a Fellow should be expelled from @royalsociety.org is scientific misconduct, I have written to him to explain the risks such an attitude poses of increasing sexual harassment in STEM.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

The leading cause of death by far among ICE officers is COVID-19.

hi, political philosopher here! this is not funny, central banks only do this when they're in extreme distress

Hundreds of British politicians and journalists are active on a website that is producing and distributing CSAM on an industrial scale. What will it take for them to leave X?
