Try explaining to someone outside the UK that this road, shared with walkers, cyclists and horse riders, legally has a 60mph speed limit. Madness, really.

I really dislike how science has started calling almost any fancy computational technique AI. 🧪 The framing of this entire article makes it sound like a benevolent AI independently made these drugs. That is *pure fantasy*. Instead: a team of scientists made a machine learning model for a study.

Oh come the fuck on

The damage Sonia Sodha has done by spewing hate from the Observer is incalculable. I feel it is worse than the Sun and Mail because she radicalised Observer readers who consider themselves liberal and gave them permission to be openly bigoted.

If you take nonviolent direct action, Labour will brand you a terrorist. If you riot, and try to burn buildings down, Labour will listen to your legitimate concerns. Take note, comrades

Edie McCreadie's yellow LDV Convoy ended up in the old transport museum, is it still part of the glasgow museums collection? is still roadworthy? a trip to the Glasgow Museums Resource Centre is in order www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

speed racer is a masterpiece

IT’S FUCKING CHESS What POSSIBLE advantage, even in the warped mind of a transphobe, could being transgender give you at chess? They’re so nakedly hateful they just can’t stand any trans person winning anything ever. Pathetic.

Relatedly, we don't talk enough about how Fairfuel UK brag about keeping £200bn from the UK Treasury at a time public services are underfunded

If you care about making buses in Glasgow better take 5 minutes to tell SPT you STRONGLY AGREE with all of their priorities for franchising. There's a risk these will be watered down if the response isn't clear and overwhelming. betterbuses.uk/strathclyde JFDI x

Yes, mistakes were made: repeatedly delaying the Bill and indulging transphobic backbenchers, after a clear promise to act as long ago as the 2016 election, allowed anti-trans prejudice to grow and fester. If they'd legislated quickly, the sky would not have fallen in, and we'd all have moved on.

For for the West of England mayoralty More in Common have: Lab: 23% Con: 21% Reform: 18% Green: 18% LD: 15% It is genuinely absurd to have an election with that kind of spread decided by first past the post. Unjustifiable.

Actually fuck off. Who is the EHRC to tell voluntary associations what to and what not to do?

E&W deserve a proper Green party rather than this shit.

Section 28 was "the law" too - that doesn't change the fact that the people who supported it were doing so out of bigotry.

My gender recognition certificate application was delayed because the panel wanted confirmation that I'd been using the ladies toilets for two years. You'd think the equalities minister would be familiar with the GRA and the GRC process.

Starmer hurtling into a climate crisis and global instability and focusing on the real issues (misgendering trans people for the applause of bigoted arseholes)

"There is a thesis to be written on why opinion on this has shifted so quickly" there really isn't. A highly motivated and radicalised group of people happened to have access to institutional power in the media and slowly ground down or repulsed anyone who opposed them.
