Yep, vote for Ted tonight. You don't have to watch it. Just imagine someone winning a nationally televised, Simon Cowell-driven show with a bunch of awkward PowerPoint slides and graphs, and that should get you over the line.

Lately I’ve been in an indie team making stop-motion animation. It’s just 4 of us (animator, writer, voice actor, sound designer). The show’s called The Tiny Angry Witch. It’s all basically hand made. No AI. It’s tiring, but we love what we do. So, anyway, here’s a Witch making rude noises:

Govt insists council has met “multiple times” and has contributed to state activities, as well as cultural delegations on PM trips to China and India. “We look forward to that partnership continuing over the months and years to come,” it added w/ Franklin Nelson www.ft.com/content/dc47...

Tonight I'll be sparring with Richard Tice and others on Any Questions? From 8pm. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Excellent, thorough piece on the perverse impact of UK's restrictive attitude to migration. Government claims it wants to improve economic outcomes and encourage integration -and is achieving precisely the opposite. (draws on @migobs.bsky.social/my research) www.economist.com/britain/2026...

“Those with chronic conditions grit their teeth on their worst days so that no one can accuse them of faking it. And those whose illnesses are not immediately apparent may prefer not to mention them at all.” - THANK YOU, Simon Sanher for voicing this. I feel seen. www.goethe.de/prj/ger/en/k...

I feel sick at this. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is where the whole, male anger / inceldom stems from being politically neglected / economically deprived / societally disenfranchised thing falls apart. They're the most privileged subsect of society and they're full of *hate*

The simple explanation is that "AI" is not, in any way, creative. In fact it is precisely the opposite. The people who do not *understand* that are, also, not creative.

We will never know or properly appreciate how many lives have been saved by librarians. The right book in the right hands at the right time. Astounding.

Follow this: First, Trump quietly buys up to $5 million of Dell stock. Then, he urges his followers to “go out and buy a Dell.” Today, his Pentagon awards a $9.7 billion deal to Dell. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Sooooo let me get this straight. The motherf🌸🌸ker rolls up into Seattle, sportin’ his $300M yacht, just as META lets 1400 employees go from WA state, META. GTFO. I honestly don’t think the optics could get anymore Dickensian. #Pinks #ProudBlue

I had to read that twice. THREE. TIMES. THE. SIZE. OF. SAN. FRANCISCO. What the fuck are we doing?

"One in 10 of the positions in the dataset demonstrated 'adverse impact' against Black applicants, while one in 20 roles did so for Asian applicants."

In April alone @eastmidsrailway.bsky.social paid out over £1 million in delay and repay payments. That’s just one rail company - they all have to make individual compensation payments That’s 53,834 people delayed AND aware / had time to claim Imagine if that £££ went on improving service

“Stephen Colbert hasn’t even been off the air for a week, but is already causing some hubbub with the launch of a new YouTube channel that has garnered more than 120,000 subscribers.” “The popular late-night host quietly debuted the channel with a video titled: “Only In Monroe --- May 22, 2026.”

Oh look, the CBS journalist who did the expose on Trump sending people to a concentration camp in El Salvador did not have her contract renewed with CBS. CBS News is exclusively for right-wingers now. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/27/b...

There is no safe age to be exposed to unending footage of atrocities, pro-anorexia content, or images of child sexual abuse:

@damianbarr.bsky.social - Monday 17th, I thought of #TheTwoRoberts

The Third Eye Centre, latterly the CCA, boarded up as well now. Such waste and neglect

Felt a great degree of sadness and shame at the failure to repair our art school on reading this I have to say

The moment we started our descent into Glasgow , this is the sentence I hit in Derek Jarman’s Modern Nature #glasgow #art #diary

Chusovitina competes for Uzbekistan but won her first Olympic gold on the Soviet Union team in Barcelona 1992. Almost every gymnast competing now wasn't even born. Her son is 27, older than most elite gymnasts. She is a fucking legend.

I used to have dreams of being an Olympic gymnast and did it til I was 16 even though I was complete dogshit. And then you see that Oksana Chusovitina just came fourth in a world cup event and is probably going to the LA Olympics and she turns 51 next month. I'VE STILL GOT TIME!
