One of my key takeaways from recently launched Feminist Investigative Journalism Handbook: "Sometimes a lack of data is the story" - an indication of a blind spot or erasure. Collaborate with others to create your own dataset www.theijsc.org/feminist-inv...

At #iMEdDIJF25, @rdamen.bsky.social honours the murdered journalists in Gaza and urges newsrooms to "stop outsourcing courage to freelancers while outsourcing responsibility to silence".

REVEALED: French police have caused dozens of drownings by violently intercepting small boats trying to reach overseas territory Mayotte. Similar tactics are being proposed for the Channel, to try to stop people from reaching the UK.

"We employ the unemployable so be grateful you have a job." Great work by @marche.bsky.social on the hype behind "AI trainers" africauncensored.online/blog/2025/08...

I really dislike how science has started calling almost any fancy computational technique AI. 🧪 The framing of this entire article makes it sound like a benevolent AI independently made these drugs. That is *pure fantasy*. Instead: a team of scientists made a machine learning model for a study.

AI companies are training their models on copyrighted works and exploiting marginalized workers in poor countries. It doesn’t have to be this way, @karenhao.bsky.social, author of Empire of AI, a new book on the race to build AI, tells Michelle Kim @restofworld.org restofworld.org/2025/karen-h...

This is incredibly worrying (and straight from the US playbook) The recent update of @privacyinternational.org research on period tracking apps is sadly more relevant than ever privacyinternational.org/learning-res...

Now comes the ‘womanosphere’: the anti-feminist media telling women to be thin, fertile and Republican A crop of conservative personalities such as Brett Cooper & Candace Owens, and outlets like Evie, are convincing young women of a gender-essentialist worldview. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

(Thread) Members of Noodle, a Telegram group for people working on gender journalism, spoke on many fantastic panels at the International Journalism Festival in Perugia. @anandankita.bsky.social gave her take on the question of when impact becomes activism www.journalismfestival.com/programme/20...

🧵BBC Thai has a story dissecting the recent findings of the Thai Parliamentary Military Committee that has been looking into the lèse majesté arrest of American academic Paul Chambers - which appears to be more worrisome than the initial development.

The small but mighty team at Dawei Watch spent weeks manually tracing mined areas in Tanintharyi using satellite images from Google Earth & Copernicus in post-coup Myanmar. What they found was very concerning. Thanks @mongabay.bsky.social for publishing! news.mongabay.com/2025/04/arme...

Football analyst @minakimes.bsky.social on what diversity, equity and inclusion is all about: "It’s to find people who are actually qualified, but haven’t been considered or given the opportunities.” #DEI

@robinsonbkk.bsky.social was a fiesty journalist and generous mentor, always ready for a laugh and brave to the end. Rest in power, my friend

I feel like I am watching the slow death of democracy & reform: Indonesia has passed a controversial law expanding the military’s role in governance, a move critics warn threatens democracy and revives the spectre of authoritarian rule under former president Suharto.

Nice work by @thibico.bsky.social illustrating the impact of the US scaling back aid in Southeast Asia. Myanmar is the largest recipient of USAID funds in the region site.thibi.co/originals/us...

Impact! The Missouri PR firm that secretly profiled hundreds of food, health and environment advocates has removed the profiles from its members-only website after @lhreports.bsky.social and partners exposed their activities and potential breach of privacy laws. #PoisonPR

OTD 2020: death of Li Wenliang.

It's taken many years to get here. I'm celebrating with the hundreds of same-sex couples in Thailand who were finally able to legally wed today. It's the first country in Southeast Asia with such legislation. #LGBTQ ##สมรสเท่าเทียม (Pic reposted X)

Artists in Singapore exist on a monochromatic spectrum—the lighter side provides access to opportunities and awards, the darker potentially leading to loss of employment. How should one navigate this space? Read Haresh's reflections: mekongreview.com/gre... Subscribe: mekongreview.com/sub...

1/ Everyone likes to talk about success, but few are keen to talk about potential failure. This is something that's come up in several coaching calls that I've done recently.

68 #Singapore writers have signed a statement criticising National Library Board’s “uncritical endorsement” of generative AI. They called for it to exercise greater prudence in adopting AI tools or risk “permanently damaging Singapore’s literary landscape” www.straitstimes.com/life/arts/68...
