A billionaire can get what they want with one donation to a political party. The rest of us must fight for years to get even the most basic rights recognised. Money destroys democracy, more than any other cause. The first step towards a better world is to stop the rich buying political outcomes.

Gardeners beware! 🪴🌷❄️ If you've already put tender plants outdoors, you may want to cover them or bring them inside. A widespread frost is expected tonight with ice possible on surfaces left damp after evening showers 🌡️

The US President casually announcing his intention to commit war crimes on social media. That's where you're at, America.

WAR CRIME BY THE US. An unarmed Iranian ship was takIng part in an Indian naval exercise, alongside the US. The US withdrew and torpedoed the Iranian ship. THEN the US refused to rescue the sailors, letting them drown. This is treachery, cowardice, cruelty and a war crime of the highest order.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has posted on X “1 million people living in this country don’t speak any English at all. 4 million people living in this country barely speak passable English” It’s racked up 2 million views AND IT’S COMPLETELY UNTRUE

One of the easiest ways to shoot down the idea that "AI" is an expert is to show how it deals with something people know about. Younger readers may not get this as most appliances come pre-wired, but anyone 35+ can see these are chaotic fire hazards. From Mastodon, AI asked how to wire a plug:

President Trump, your Melania movie has bombed

Same story over and over. These larpers - Kirkegard, Pesta et al - pumping out the same effluence with their strategy - exposed by @harryshukman.bsky.social + @hopenothate.org.uk - to normalise and spread scientific racism. They KNOW it's bullshit too. Read this: www.theguardian.com/world/2024/o...

Watching #SPOTY do you think Gabby knows her dress is see-through?😳

On Tuesday I wrote to Sofia, asking her either to attach a note to the film and to the platforms on which it is shown, explaining that I was interviewed under false pretences; or to re-edit the film, removing my contribution. I have not received a reply.

Quick break from the physical training to get some kind words of encouragement from friends. Thanks guys! Watch live from 10pm tomorrow - www.youtube.com/live/Xnz6os7...

Happy #Halloween! A few years ago, midwives at the Royal Oldham Hospital in Lancashire created "dilation pumpkins" - and I don't think I've ever seen anything scarier in my life.* 😂😩 *Posted with apologies to anyone who is pregnant.

Praise me or shut up! – Trump’s threats to silence opponents break US first amendment A press free to criticise its government and leaders is essential to any democracy – in America it is crumbling before our eyes By Granville Williams

Just you wait, currently bots are busy repeating the bullshit. Soon you’ll hear people that used to be reasonable or normal, repeating this obvious bollocks despite a charity being forced to deny it. Because that’s how it works. This is a direct rip off of Trumps tactics.

Fuck me sideways. Farage is ACTUALLY doing it. He is actually trying to pull the “they’re eating the dawgs” MAGA bullshit here. They’ve truly jumped the shark this time.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Way too hot for a cooked dinner! Picked some salad leaves, homegrown beetroot, potatoes, spring onions & chives (my 1st attempt at potato salad) + a few bits & bobs from the fridge 😋

Excellent research by @guyshrubsole.bsky.social What are the implications of having millions of 'ghost Pheasants' wandering around the countryside? In a #BirdFlu epidemic it could be catastrophic. #Ornithology #UKBirding raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/08/01/s...

Heartbreaking to read of a child in the UK dying from an entirely preventable infectious disease. Measles can be a vicious & deadly illness. The MMR vaccine offers superb protection & there is NO link between the vaccine and autism, contrary to what many medical charlatans try to peddle. (1/3)

Shame on you @telegraphnews.bsky.social for giving infamous UK anti-vaxer Aseem Malhotra a platform on the very day we learn a child has died of measles in Liverpool. You do understand, don’t you, that it’s exactly this kind of scaremongering that leaves parents so anxious & afraid? Shame on you.

He sold vaccine cards and injected kids with saline so they thought they were vaccinated. There are no rules anymore

Not only does “AI” produce mediocre garbage, it has a huge environmental footprint *that we cannot measure*. The government is allowing these companies to act like literal outlaws. They steal our data, they will enjoy relaxed building regulations and they refuse to disclose their water consumption.
