With the death of Bardot, the world's racists have become significantly less attractive.

Bob Vylan and Reg D Hunter's cases being thrown out by judges in the last days before this silly day has made the season a little bit pop at least.

Blindingly obvious and exactly what I said to the New York Times at the time. So the question is, why did the useless British media carry, hysterically, coverage of a UK (Not Very Good) Lawyers for Israel press release? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Here it is, my big #EastEnders catch-up thread for people who only see it when they go home for Christmas with the family. Allow me to get you all caught up on the goings-on in Albert Square in its most explosive week of the year! KEEP THIS BY YOUR SIDE AT ALL TIMES.

Tomorrow. 9am. The Seventh Annual EastEnders Catch-Up Thread for people who only see it when they go home for Christmas. I'm saving your festive season again.

As a former editor of Popbitch – and the proud owner of a legal letter sent by HarperCollins, accusing me of being "highly likely to cause serious harm to [their former star client]’s reputation both as an individual and author” – may I just say: GET IT RIGHT UP YE

David Walliams' reputation was an open secret, junior staff were told to meet him in pairs & never visit his home, yet HarperCollins only dropped him when a Telegraph investigation came out. The problem is not just him. HarperCollins knowingly promoted & funded a guy sexually harassing junior staff.

What if AI is not a general purpose technology but is a *generally applied* technology (applied in contexts where it both is and isn't useful) and hence is now an ambient factor, something that gets forced into everything, whether it's needed or not.

The waitress who does the little judo dip early on has the cleanest leg sweep I've ever seen, this is an absolute clinic

Every one of these pieces comes down to “what if ai was useful”

It is obscene that Ince has been forced out of his non-news, non-politics-focused role at the BBC for opinions like "trans people should not be eliminated". Fucking monstrous.

Instant all-timer here:

*presses record* Idea for movie: a maverick proofreader breaks all the rules & defies his bosses by making er, clear & concise corrections, wait a minute, delete

Mini thread on the ET decision in Peggie Top line: It says exactly what we have been saying for months. The decision of the Supreme Court was not to turn the Equality Act 2010 into a nationwide bathroom ban - regardless of how anti-trans organisations have sought to misrepresent the law. 🧵👇

TERF: brings court case with a scattergun of largely ludicrous allegations Court: dismisses almost all allegations but upholds one or two of the less ludicrous ones Media: THIS TERF WON HER CASE AND NOW THE TRANSES ARE ILLEGAL AND YOU MUST STONE THEM IN THE STREETS Every. Fucking. Time.

That sound you hear is every gender critical in the UK heads exploding in rage at this. They're trying to litigate a bathroom ban and it's failing badly.

Freeman's going to whittle down the whole of humanity until the only people who are socially acceptable are herself and daughter-marrying elderly filmmakers who have been credibly accused by the children they didn't marry of abuse

This is exactly what the recent Trump-BBC 'scandal' was designed to achieve. The BBC is now self-censoring criticisms of Trump in the name of "impartiality"

I guess the brave BBC will be sandblasting Orwell's "If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear" off the front of Broadcasting House?

Giving away a record amount of money from my checking account to my savings account

This has absolutely broken me, I think I just woke people up in Kerry with my cackling

To suggest that having lived a life so grim that even an English tribunal will grant you asylum, and to have somehow managed to get here at great risk to life, is a "golden ticket" is absolutely fucking contemptible. Shame on this so-called Labour Party.

Let's just enjoy the fact for a moment that Bill Clinton getting a blowjob really could bring down the government this time.

Wasn't expecting this to be splashed everywhere.

Fellow music fans of a similar vintage to me may be interested to know that the Lush film of compiled Super 8 material recorded on tour by bassist Phil King is now up on YouTube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow3j...

Now they're stuck in Folsom Prison.

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sending emails to her staff saying "please print" or Donald Trump sending letters to Jeffrey Epstein alluding to child rape, both candidates sent some questionable messages to people that they knew.

Joyce Carol Oates should say he can't do backflips off the roof next

So the Telegraph’s “BBC bias dossier” - supposedly written by ex-BBC adviser Michael Prescott - is being used to claim there’s a rogue LGBT+ unit “censoring” gender-critical voices inside the BBC. Let’s look at what’s actually in it. Spoiler: it’s nothing but recycled transphobic talking points! 🧵

was tim davie wearing a poppy when he resigned

I like how the caption on this photo reads as if he's making a claim that could not be independently verified.

No more noble British tradition than resigning over some nonsense everyone is only pretending to be angry about rather than all of the actually bad things you've done.
