Good morning

So because some people are ruthless psychopaths, we *all* have to engage in this Race To The Bottom?

Important from @martingelin in The Guardian: In Sweden, online hate and anti-immigrant extremism are driving women out of public life https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/nov/10/sweden-online-hate-anti-immigrant-extremism-women

[Link to article discussing mass murder] I really want to read this book, but given *handwaves at literally everything* I'm not currently in an emotional place where I would properly be able to take it in, but the *cultural* aspect of mass murder which Mullen refers to - "they're not wolves […]

All those stories about London not being safe. True. On the way to the restaurant I was accosted twice. First, by a bloke trying to get me to go to a farmers' market. Second, a woman tried to get me to go into an art gallery. #itsgrimupnorthlondon

We’re at Highgate Art Fair this weekend with my work. Pop along and say hello if you’re in the area.

I've spent five minutes reconfiguring my browsers so that they render every site using the same very readable font (Atkinson Hyperlegible from the Braille Institute - https://www.brailleinstitute.org/freefont/) and it's amazing how much better my middle-aged person's eyes seem to find it. #font

‚Nicht ganz scharf, aber trotzdem gut‘ #FotoVorschlag Orang-Utan, Sumatra

My search skills are failing, but trying to find an essay I read a few years ago about understanding gen-alpha humor through the lens of historical artistic movements embracing surrealism in response to fascism. If anyone happens to have a link, I'd very much so appreciate it!

Barnkonventionen Ulf. Vad gör ni ens för förebyggande?

Inför det stundande valet i Sverige bör man överväga att blockera X, då det uppenbart börjar bli ett hot mot demokratin och bör ses som en fientlig aktör med syfte att påverka valet. Att svenska medier och Politiker fortfarande använder den plattformen är riktigt oroväckande […]

Good morning

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

Some things are not entirely dreadful today. Good morning :) (Sound emphatically on; credit for one of the enduring highlights of the internet to MortyTheMisfit on other platforms) #smallcheeringthings

1. In the wake on Mamdani’s win, we’ll see a lot more far right anti-urban sentiment. Here’s a thread on its roots and evolution. The idea that the city is evil and corrupt, and the countryside innocent and pure, goes back a long way: to Theocritus in Alexandria, and to the Old Testament. 🧵

reminded occasionally of that one twete that goes > Yahoo bought the sex gifs aggregator "Tumblr," banned all the sex gifs, then sold it for a billion dollar loss, in so doing dumping a bunch of extremely unwell 17 year old sorcerers on us. This in economics is called "externalities"

Oscar and Grammy winner Billie Eilish puts her money where her mouth is — and she's telling other affluent people to do the same. The 23-year-old singer is donating $11.5M of ticket sales from her Hit Me Hard and Soft tour to charitable organizations that support food equity and climate justice […]

The central lie — the key dishonesty — of modern conservatism is that being judgmental about the ethnicity or language or culture of the person next door is fine and acceptable, but being judgmental of that attitude is elitist and arrogant and closed-minded. What vapid bullshit.

No, it's not just swastikas they use to signal to one another... All us minorities and leftists aren't just making up shit when we say these are LITERALLY Nazis

Makariri: Cold, winter

I have an interview with a candidate in 5 minutes. It's #halloween, and I'm dressed as a rainbow unicorn. I have no idea if that's a good first impression or a bad first impression. 😀 I guess we will find out.

[Kardashian, utterly demoralising levels of ignorance] DUMB.EST. FUCKING. TIMELINE. Aware that I'm part of the problem by linking to an article about it (but do think it is important to be aware of the nonsense du jour, in order to be able to head it off at the pass as much as possible) but […]
