Which is why it is unconscionable, under the circumstances, that the government is cutting $190 million from the CBC's budget.

Fucking hell. This is what happens when autonomy is transferred from women to their unborn fetuses. Medical providers stop seeing women as their patients - we become an obstacle.

'we decapitated a nation and its body is blocking the exit from the building we also set on fire'

I describe it as “hilarious”

New form of Labour trans apologism has just dropped, where we pretend not being an outspoken ally of the trans community is a good thing, because it means you're not making it about yourself.

Every dead child a whole world snuffed out in a moment of unimaginable pain. Meanwhile, our leaders—the purported defenders of the "rules-based international order"—sit around twiddling their thumbs hoping nobody asks them about the value of a non-white life (and nobody does)

“woke zamboni” is, objectively speaking, the coolest possible vehicle

Possible solution to the Strait of Hormuz?

Fiona Apple quit cocaine after an “Excruciating” night with Quentin Tarantino & Paul Thomas Anderson. “Every addict should just get locked in a private movie theatre with QT & PTA on coke. they’ll never want to do it again,” Apple joked.

Yes, I'm sure that what Iranians want is a puppet regime controlled by the US ruling their country... 🙃

So many pheasants shouting out in the forest out back today that I'm surprised that a member of the royal family hasn't shown up to indiscriminately blast them out of the sky.

I agree with Elon... liberals should absolutely reflect more on how they were manipulated into enabling the rise of a world historical monster

Labour MPs secretly attend concert that was literally about Labour oppressing our community shocker

Long live Lebanon

This may upset you but if you cancel your subscription all you will do is hurt a news organization that is evil in a time when they’re struggling more than ever

Just leaving this here (again)

Also, people need to understand how ridiculous they are when they reference "the economy." It's superstition. Substitute "the economy" with "the magic." Eg, Carney can speak credibly about the magic. The head magician understands the magic and commands the magic. We must trust his magical wisdom.

The kind of trail Gaddafi got

But he doesn't feel their pain. He didn't feel the pain when he was Governor of the BoE, and the government he served enacted the most drastic austerity programs in the world, gutted the social net, increased inequality and poverty to such an extent that UK children are literally smaller.

Same with you and your husband, probably most venal and corrupt power couple in recent UK history.

Microsoft sweatily jamming their AI* products into every product corner, despite the fact that customers aren't asking for any of it. www.theverge.com/games/894799...

but also, yon fuckin numpty is actually just mad that the greens cheated by offering voters something they wanted, instead of what the six cunts who own all our newspapers demand

There's long been a sub-genre of Israeli entertainment dedicated to this. "Shooting and crying" they call it. We have it here in the U.S. too of course. I'm reminded of the old joke by Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle. www.welcometohellworld.com/we-deserve-it/

I had assumed the headline was a joke. But no. people.com/new-dime-coi...

Fuck this disgusting ‘sport’ and fuck anyone who watches and supports it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It is IMO hard to see why Cherie, who is not exactly a forthright public figure, would choose this precise moment to go on the radio unless she is used to a gilded life free from consequences from bad behaviour, and so she does not understand this looks bad.

JFC. Impeach and remove this lawless man, you fools.

The entire western political and media ecosystem (except maybe Spain) wants this war. All they do is regurgitate his CoD intro speeches, Trump’s senile ramblings and Israeli lies. What more do you want from them?!

Sports gambling should be legal but you should have to go to an actual building to do it and it should be so off-putting and sad you’ll never want to do it again

'Cabaret' (1972) dir: Bob Fosse 📽️ she tried to warn us

A THIRD horse has now sadly died at this year’s Cheltenham Festival 💔 After racing in the Gold Cup, Envoi Allen has died, bringing the total number of horse deaths at the festival since 2000 to 81*. Earlier this week, Hansard and HMS Seahorse also lost their lives. *@animalaid.org.uk

Oh my god people are giving small children AI toys and expecting them to learn communication from them??? THIS IS LITERALLY WHAT HUMANS SHOULD BE DOING THIS IS NOT AI'S JOB WHAT THE HELL www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I cannot describe properly in words how much it infuriates me to my bone that there were people out there that were allowed to act like Right Wingers, RIGHT WINGERS, were free speech champions

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

From a friend in Beirut this morning, who in the last few days has seen several Israel missile strikes within walking distance of their home.

chat, what happens if plastic prices spike in a society that has eliminated every packaging and storage option except plastic?

Oh dear. Will nobody think of their poor bank balances?

This isn't a coordinated distraction; they think only in irrelevant cultural signs while this island slowly sinks into the ocean. Put a platypus on the fiver, a chair, a donkey. Who cares. Why are politicians talking about this. Why is the BBC talking about this. Why is anybody talking about this

It would be nice if you and your party decided to start fighting fascism too, instead of colluding with it, but we can't have everything. Or anything much, except pointless symbols.

Godfuckingdammittohell, the snow came back.

The British Library’s Medieval MSS team now have a presence on Bluesky @blmedieval.bsky.social Follow for updates as we restore more of our digitised content online!

It is not enough for Churchill to be replaced on the £5. We must also replace his statue with something that can truly unite the country at this difficult time. Sign the petition here: www.change.org/p/uk-parliam...

"saying The Quiet Part out loud now" does the whole of journalism function to retroactively inject "quiet parts" where there was Always bloodcurdling screaming in order to color specific narratives about "technological progress" with Deception and not Openly Expressed Intent

Hah, I should have looked for this first

It's really funny how Maya Forstater and Julie Bindel spend all their time online fearmongering about how trans people are dangers to women and children yet they went to a stadium full of 10k trans people and nothing at all happened to them. Thanks for the donation, hope you enjoyed the show!

Bleak House!!! Honestly this book—like so many other novels published in parts—makes so much more sense when you think of it as a long serialized soap opera that you wait and devour in sections. (I'm still annoyed by the orphans tho) 🔒

EVERY SINGLE PART of a lily is toxic! Petals, leaves, pollen, the water in the vase. You can celebrate someone other ways besides killing their cat. I worked as a vet tech for 10 years. Let me assure you, you don't want to see your cat go through this nightmare.
