I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

Don't let an app sync your fucking contacts.

I am once again asking people to stop talking as if "queer romance" and "m/f romance" are mutually exclusive categories.

Being faster is not the same as being more creative. Creativity is about exploration, learning and problem solving. That’s not something you can just outsource and expect the same level of satisfaction or growth from.

How can we draw more attention to this? They're Palestine Action hunger strikers who are now in critical condition in the hospital and the UK is just letting them die. It also feels like there is a media blackout

The “forever” implies that after my own death, an AI simulation of me will take over and continue the conversation

Pro-immigration rhetoric from politicians when?

well this was certainly a plot twist

My “I’m Not Enron” tshirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by the shirt

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now

Well we said Black and Asian home secretaries are used as a shield to implement racist policies a white man couldn’t get away with and there’s no starker example than this. The worst kind of identity politics.

Can’t believe the same thing might bring them down

I am gutted to learn of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social (Alice Wong’s) passing. She was always a warm friend, a wonderful spirit, and someone who fostered my own growth. She helped me see that, as a #disabled person with chronic illness, I matter—I am whole. I’ll be posting some of Alice’s work. ❤️ forever

Almost from the beginning, the Labour regime that created the welfare state with their violence in Kenya etc. And the "most progressive government of all time" under Harold Wilson was the one that encoded Enoch Powell's Rivers of Blood speech into law with their Commonwealth Immigrants Act 1968 💀

GET 'EM

If you don’t derive any benefit from the act of writing, no pleasure or catharsis or satisfaction, why are you doing it? This isn’t meant to be an aggressive question, I’m not demanding an answer, but it’s a thing you may want to ask yourself. Life is short and you could do something else?

Mamdani is going to implement Maria law. Say it loud and there's music playing.

This is really impressive. They invented racism.

Look at how fast RFK Jr. gets the f*ck. BRUH I CANT BREATHE 😭😭😭😭

Took the cats out for a walk with my brother and accidentally created a 90s Britpop album cover

Rest in piss motherfucker

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

A whole lot of red states are actually just highly gerrymandered and/or voter suppressed states. Not all, of course -- places like North Dakota and Wyoming exist -- but enough that people should be more conscious of it than a lot are.

oh my god

early 21st century americans were so modest that they would regularly censor their own feet in video and artistic depictions, and it was considered improper to expose your feet in public — dismissed with cries of "put those grippers away"

Is Priya Satia on #bluesky? Cause Im reading Empire of Guns (I've already read Times Monster) and I really want to tell her that her books have fundamentally reshaped my brain

Hello, I am at $60/$200 that I need for upcoming rent and some urgent bills, if you can share that's a big help, thank you!

Yeah I really need help with this . I’m gonna go hyperventilate into a bag but this has gone bad quickly

“It’s not going anywhere” is a cop out for gen ai. Choices are being made. Name the companies. Name the choices. Name the targets. Name the consequences. This idea that it’s naturally occurring and everyone is helpless, as if it’s not daily choices made by billionaires is dishonest and insulting.

- We need cheaper printed black and white comics for the love of god - Comics for adults could do crazy numbers if they actually had support, pubs are leaving money on the table - Prose authors shouldn't be hired to write comics based on prose chops alone - Cartoonists should be paid 700x more

when you become a boss you lose the right to chop it up with the employees in the break room. you gave that up in exchange for power. if you want a business AND the camaraderie, start a co-op

Gaby is scared of a Reform government. Migrants, Palestinians, trans and disabled people already have a Reform government but she doesn’t care so long as fascism has a red rosette on it

Don’t forget selfcare this morning:

You are not seeing this slaughter live-streamed to your devices because Israel has murdered most of Gaza’s most prominent journalists in targeted assassinations.

Note this also applies to calling me: - smart - articulate - hardworking

Don’t call me pretty. Give me a commission and send money into my account.

This means that it is now Labour’s official position that Israel is committing genocide. While at the same time, the Labour government continues to arm that genocide Absolutely extraordinary!

THE MEME IS REAL

Comes round quicker every year!

Probably just racism if I'm being honest with you
