Explain your @ Reclaimed nickname used by a bully to humiliate me during my first year at university

Liberal democracy update

Wes Streeting really needs to engage his brain a little bit before he speaks... Walking/cycling: £4.5bn *over 5 years*. Defence: £60bn *per year* (in 24/25, rising to £73.5bn by 28/29). Active travel walking/wheeling announcement therefore less than 1.5% of defence budget.

Not even "Everybody is twelve" theory suffices for what we just saw, as your typical twelve year old would have found it embarrassing beyond belief.

Well fuck Peter Serafinowicz I guess. variety.com/2026/tv/glob...

Banning children from social media?

Irl Bouldy 🥹🥹🥹

every child knows where it is at all times. it knows this because it knows where it isn't

In 1908 the Lancet called for an 18+ age limit on reading in bed for U.K. children.

(ALIEN LAWYER ON PAYPHONE OUTSIDE OF AREA 51) no, i told them that, sir. well we're all VERY sorry. mhm. it just seems like...yeah, there's nothing we can really do, at this point. yeah. I understand. we WILL keep trying! "It is what it is" as they say. Thank you. yeah. (hangs up) fffffuuuck my life

Can't help but notice that the ban on social media for under-16s seems to not include any of the most notorious far-right radicalisation platforms like Rumble, Truth Social or 4chan. I'm sure that won't have any consequences at all. 🙃

there's a sequence of words i had to see

Mate, you played at Buckingham Palace for the Queen’s platinum jubilee. You’re not some wild-eyed rebel.

I'm sure the sufragettes posted on all church hall notice boards which people they were going to bomb that week

As always with these things, it's tempting to go "if they can come for X, they can come for Y!", so it's important not to lose sight of what the attacks on X themselves mean.

The "What has JK Rowling ever said or done that's transphobic?" ignorant centrists have gone very quiet of late, haven't they? This isn't a "change", by the way, she was always like this, she has always hated LGBT+ people this much. She's a conservative, middle-class woman who became a billionaire.

"just like how every house these days has a home theatre," - Jensen Huang

JULES PIDIEU - Sergeant Torson here is wondering if you are still in possession of your genitalia. Over. YOU - I left it at his momma's after I fucked her ass all night. Tell him that.

A deeply, deeply stupid policy based on a similar policy in Australia that by all accounts has failed SPECTACULARLY. The main outcome of this policy will be to educate young people on how to evade state surveillance measures.

Checked her Instagram page, the comments are full of incels posting Andrew Tate gifs. Real grim stuff. Regardless of how awful a person Lauren is nobody deserves that sort of treatment.

Third year of white English men committing race riots across the UK and the state is announcing their plans for a hard bedtime lockout on memes for kids, do they actually think this is good governance? That it polls well? They literally are not these kids’ dad or mom, absolutely busybody nonsense

My apologies to the Reductress, I wasn’t familiar with your game.

did you know that pheasants can distinguish between rabbits and hares? that’s because game recognise game.

Also, this sign at Vienna pride which, honestly, fair.

🧵 I wrote a thread about this when he was elected that I can't find, but the gist of it was: Mamdani WILL disappoint you. He can't not. I'm glad a socdem got elected and he seems like a nice dude, but he's a propaganda machine. The amount of people that just think they're job is done now that he's >

There is no feminism without trans liberation and civil liberties. None.

Guy at the pyramids called after me “sir!” No response “maam!” No response, after a few seconds he tries again “cousin!” I think we’ve cracked it. There is a gender neutral honorific.

No seriously they're stuck in a shit pub being yelled at by Fatboy Slim

pics or it didn’t happen

I think it’s quite easy to forget how so many of the young MPs in parliament can be easily bought off with some average priced treats and a little bit of attention

Wrapping my antidepressants in cheese because I’m not too proud to learn from a dog

it occured to me that all silent hill protagonists are either "teenage girl crushed under societal expectation" or "man who is not doing great". its like they knew

I don't really understand why everyone is hell bent on defending a policy introduced by George fucking Osborne?? The triple-lock is a fundamentally unsustainable, unfair policy that forces working people to pay more and more of their salary into a state pension they themselves will never receive.

A message of love to our trans friends and colleagues and partners at the end of another week of being brutalised by the State. We're still here, we care, we're fighting for you. Please don't despair. Oh, and, lest I forget, #FuckWesStreeting

Keep seeing posts like this. I dunno, maybe start by not giving said billionaire £8 (or whatever it costs) a month for clout

I say this with honesty and respect - @angusmacdonaldld.bsky.social go and royally fuck yourself. Did that sound honest or respectful? No? Have a think about that maybe.

Hundreds of strangers in Belfast working together. Doing shopping, providing accommodation, driving kids to school, people to hospital appointments. Have just been told of a woman close to us who hasn't left her house since Monday so we'll be sorting her out today and getting her anything she needs

There's probably never been a better time to remind you that when David Hockney first took his Mum to California she remarked 'all this lovely weather and nobody puts their washing out'.

The fact that nobody liked this proves my point js

QTP with a gif of an under-appreciated video game 💔

RIP David Hockney :(

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ah yeah that's the worst case scenario for sure *stares in The Troubles*

Every time I think an American on bluesky has said the dumbest possible thing, another one comes along to prove me wrong.

The Labour government has very clearly in its response to racist violence told us that the lives of Black and Asian people do not fucking matter and that we can fuck off and die.

With my apologies to the circus.
