What?!

They've already arrested thousands of people for holding signs, what more power could they possibly need? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

San Sebastian this time last week ☀️

It’s time for women and allies to speak up. To say ‘not in our name’ to the discrimination and exclusion of trans people. Are you with us? ✍️ If you are a woman and agree please sign @nionwomen.bsky.social 's open letter https://goodlaw.social/wu1u

Silent march for Palestine in Sheffield today 🇵🇸

The EHRC is trying to change the law, banning trans people from public, without even a government debate on it Please write to your MP to make sure this doesn't happen Here's a great template by Trans Actual docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Glad to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social won so decisively! We really need an effective opposition to the increasingly racist and cruel Labour government.

Got out on my bike for the first time in months. Made some cow friends on my biscuit break.

I miss the days when racists were no platformed instead of given constant coverage.

Sheffield trans pride yesterday, followed by metal bands in a very sweaty venue.

To repeat (blue in face): House in community - as for normal people Close mass accommodation sites and detention camps Lift the ban on work after 6 months if claims not processed Process claims Stop with the lies about ‘pull factors’ and ‘deterrents’ 1/ www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Mick might be getting a bit bored of me asking him for opinions on my dissertation

Sheer cowardice from @sheffcitycouncil.bsky.social, discriminating against trans people and reducing provision for disabled people because they're scared the eye of jkr is going to find them www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/exclusive-tr...

Sooooo many people out for the Yorkshire March for Palestine today 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

🇵🇸 Yorkshire March for Palestine in Sheffield this Saturday (16th) 🇵🇸

Under this popup getting in the way of me reading the article is a list of highlights and an abstract. If I can't figure out if it's relevant from those then no amount of world-burning AI nonsense is going to help me.

🇵🇸 Yorkshire March for Palestine in Sheffield this Saturday (16th) 🇵🇸

One. Zero. Zero. www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_Aa...

365 people (probably more by the time you've seen this) have been arrested today for daring to challenge the genocide in Palestine that our government has been actively aiding. Solidarity to all those brave enough to stand up to this authoritarianism. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Mick was too busy snoozing to celebrate international cat day yesterday

Well well well. Looks like the EHRC going into damage limitation mode and that the Slimes story was essentially wish fulfillment bullsh!t. As I suspected this morning. But the damage to our mental health is already done - it even got to me today. Assume far right press = fake news

Fuck Labour and fuck anyone who claims to be progressive and goes along with this.

How can anyone seriously look at the past 30 years and decide more centrism is the answer? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Saw a few bands around the Sheffield fringe today at the Washington, hallamshire hotel, Sidney & Matilda and the red lion. The highlight was definitely See Emily Play, unsurprisingly I'm a sucker for a feminist historian in a justice for Palestine t-shirt.

Slap Rash at Alder, Dearthworms and Good News at Sidney & Matilda at Sheffield fringe tonight

Silent march for Palestine tomorrow in Sheffield 🇵🇸

Wet Leg at the Foundry for their second album launch. Nice work getting them back in Sheffield @beartreerecords.bsky.social

Procrastination is harder now I don't have a conference to organise.

Pohl and Dearthworms at the Bite Risk gig at Sidney & Matilda last night.

The police investigation in to Kneecap was huge fucking news. Days of headlines pushing the fact it had the police involved. Dropped without a word. I’m so fucking angry with the government, the police and the complicit media.

#Disabled folks, particular people who use assistive technology for web browsing, how do you feel #accessibility has been improving or not over the last few years? This is for a talk I want to write about the actual impact of accessibility regulations and compliance. Boosts and thoughts welcome!

Let us know how your day was at @frontendnorth.bsky.social last week (it's mostly a blur to me now 🤣)

Ooooh the new Little Simz record is pretty

Well that was fun. And now sleep.

Aww the only song I put on the @frontendnorth.bsky.social playlist came on while there's only 2 people to hear it m.youtube.com/watch?v=2cnO...

Kinda weird that I only have to scroll a few posts down on my profile to get to a post that would now be classed as terrorism 🇵🇸

Mick's very smug about having a ticket for @frontendnorth.bsky.social on Thursday. Get yours soon to make sure you don't miss out frontendnorth.com

She's not kidding about it being sunny for @frontendnorth.bsky.social !

At midnight, Palestine Action will be proscribed under the Terrorism Act. Their real “crime”? Exposing the UK’s role in arming Israel’s genocide. This is a dark day for our democracy. Criminalising non-violent resistance won’t silence the truth. We are all Palestine Action 🇵🇸

The Trump govt is literally setting up concentration camps and torturing people based on their skin colour. When are Britain and others going to standup and criticise this instead of sucking up to him in the hope of getting some crumbs?

One week today!

🎟️ Tickets are selling fast for 10th July, Sheffield www.tickettailor.com/events/front... If you're a designer, an engineer, or a design engineer: we have 8 excellent talks for you at Front End North! In no particular order...

So Starmer's too busy with important things to notice what's going on with the welfare bill, but not so busy he can't comment on Glastonbury. Twice.

I'm not sure listening to Bob Vylan while responding to the EHRC consultation is helping me not get too angry about having to spend Sunday on this nonsense.

Nadine Shah at the Foundry as part of Migration Matters. Absolutely compelling 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

When I got involved with Front End North, one of the things I wanted to achieve was an affordable ticket price. My inspiration was WordCamp London, which priced its tickets so that the whole community could come - not just developers, but testers, designers and writers too.
