the Command & Conquer series is 30 years old today we so have an excuse to share this iconic moment with Tim Curry

She says kitty swears at me.

What? How!? Nobody ever likes my stuff; I'm just tweeting into the void for my own amusement. Is it really only less than 2% of users that are supplying The Content?

I am prepared for the raptor I have my camera and binoculars at the ready

Weird way of saying low productivity gains from ai are a result of ai being shit

"mostly adults"

Um...

The thing about living in a human society is you either decide that everyone (except those for whom it would be medically dangerous) has to take VACCINES into their bodies or everyone (with no exceptions at all) has to take VIRULENT PATHOGENS in from those around them and, look, the first is better.

I would love for Bluesky to give some more context other then “post blocked” like can we say “user blocking you” or “you blocked user” or “these users blocked each other” I need some context for the posts I can’t see! (No I don’t want to change the block feature in any other way.)

RIP Maru. 😢 The first and only internet cat I subscribed to, and still my favourite to this day. May heaven be filled with boxes that are slightly too small. 📦

Two trials will be repeated endlessly despite always producing the same results: 1) Does UBI work? (yes) 2) Does AI improve productivity? (no)

It is very unfair, Thatcher had the much simpler task of being cruel at a time when a lot of our equality protections were not fully established. Labour is having to systematically dismantle those protections to do their cruelty. Stop downplaying their evil by comparing it to mere thatcherism.

Congratulations to the newly elected Leader of the Green Party of England & Wales, @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Oh thank god; they picked Zack

Buy her awesome gay book to help cover her apparently financially crippling latex expenses ;) geni.us/tFD3e

you’re not wrong, the sign is definitely true. but i’m betting you’re wrong about why the sign is true.

Of course I apologise to the furniture when I bump into it; it's called having some fucking manners...

we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light

fuck you, but the horse you rode in on is cool

If the AI bubble really is bursting, please take this lesson from it: Nothing marketed to you this relentlessly is ever worth it. If it was, they wouldn’t need to beg you.

I don't know who needs to hear this but slavery was bad.

I reckon Nichol the Heresiarch is trying to bring his dead dad back, so @johnnyohnny.bsky.social can go: "Papa?" "Nichol?" 😉

so the only legislative victories of labour, the uk's "centre-left" party are thus far 1. legal to kill grandma 2. all trans people banned 3. like 65% of all adults are now technically terrorists 4. do you have a loicense to read wikipedia

Best to avoid Jeff and Geoff when they're angry; no one wants to deal with a pair of raging homophones ;)

Why this hasn't become the primary way of assessing risk I've no idea. What better way to prove you'll make monthly payments than years of doing exactly that.

This is the appropriate response to equivocation on trans rights.

@gralefrit.bsky.social You have to see these! A friend of mine has been collating a series of images entitled "Things my students have written turned into Philomena Cunk quotes" and they're just glorious.

Stop saying Starmer is implementing Trump policies, he's not. He started months before the US election and told us he would when campaigning. Streeting met with transphobic groups 4 months before the US election and extended the PB ban 3 months before. This isn't Trump, this is Labour.

The Labour Party, either freezing or arresting your grandparents

they can fuck off until they say trans rights.

You can put the link 🔗 in the VERY SAME POST as your post about the content !! There is no algorithmic penalty for links here !! We will still see your post and the original content link won't be buried in a reply !!

I can't comment on the podcast, having never heard of it before, but the book... the book is awesome, and well worth a read 👍

Dunno what genius at Trebor designed the packaging for their Extra Strong mints such that it partially covers the barcode, but they were bad at their job...

Why do they need a proxy for determining sex? If it's a one dimensional, material property they should just be able to measure it directly. Almost like it isn't that at all

"She does not own the fandom" is the big lie to soothe whatever flickers of their conscience you desperately want to stomp out. You keep it relevant. You keep it in the conversation, as part of the zeitgeist. You make it core to your sociality and support her empire. You pay for our eradication.

This is a router. It's the little box that connects you to the internet. It comes with parental controls already engaged when you turn it on. Have you considered using them instead of turning your country into a surveillance state

Every UK petition is like this

Roses are red, Violets are blue, Trans folks ain't done shit to you

Half a million people signing up to a party that doesn’t even have a name let alone any policies yet but is just saying “we think things could be less shit” should be a clear signal to Starmer that the trajectory he’s taken Labour on isn’t going down well at all

“#UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.”
