Get fucked, Debenhams.

WHOA, Rayearth shirt on The Yetee today!

UK folks, let's jump on this AI regulation petition the Society of Authors emailed out! It's an actual parliament one so the government HAS to respond if it reaches the signature threshold. It calls for regulations to make AI developers disclose copyrighted works trained on. Sign & repost!! ❤️

I saw someone claiming to be "immune to propaganda" because they weren't turned by MAGA. Ummm no. You are not "Immune to propaganda." You're immune to MAGA propaganda because IT WASN'T MEANT FOR YOU. That's all.

Sunday’s @thetimes.com cartoon times.newsprints.co.uk/morten-morla...

Just waiting for Ian Dunt et al to claim that S̶t̶a̶r̶m̶e̶r̶ Burnham will *obviously* shift left once in power and only a brainwashed M̶o̶m̶e̶n̶t̶u̶m̶ Green extremist thug could fail to see it

Pollard, yet another guy who isn’t just a roaring, gargling, vexatious wingnut crank *now*: he was one twenty years ago and everyone knew he was, but that didn’t stop anyone picking up bullshitty stories from his paper and running with them when that was convenient.

Prototype revealed! The Book of Time certainly draws a lot of attention! 🤓 #CLAMP #CardcaptorSakura

My first thought upon seeing this was: “What’s a belt silencer?”

The very first comedian I ever went to see live was Ross. I’ve still loved him all this time.

Just been chatting on-stage at the Cheltenham Science Festival, the night after I was no-platformed on Question Time with the ‘mainstream’ candidates, so I’ve taken my revenge and invited none of them.

It's not so much I disagree with the headline, or indeed the article. It's just so unbelievably depressing how many people think ineptitude, mendacity, corruption and - most importantly - racism are perfectly acceptable right up til the point someone chucks a bottle.

english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.

Is there still time to stop the EHRC Code of Practice that will make Trans+ segregation the norm? Tomorrow, 10K readers will understand the mechanisms and steps MPs will need to take to stop it, as opposition grows Join them 🏳️‍⚧️ 📩 wearequeeraf.com/subscribe

Bluesky is like being upstairs at the VIP party with an open bar looking down at the rest of the crowd sweating all over each other and waiting an hour to fight their way to the bar to get a shitty watered down drink. I much prefer being among the 10%.

Happy pride month all, fuck Palantir

While most will remember Anthony Head for Buddy, for me he’ll always be the evil and ironically named Gently Benevolent from Bleak Expectations - and those who know Pip Bin’s twice undead evil ex-guardian will know the grave won’t hold him for long, hahahaha… (that’s his evil laugh).

There is a small minority of English people who want this debate, unfortunately they are all columnists.

UK publishing generated £7.4 billion in revenue last year. Compare that to: Premier League football: £6.6 billion Home entertainment: £5.6 billion UK film industry: 2.8 billion Now tell me again why authors don't deserve fair contracts and better pay.

Eat the Economist.

This article is amplifies clap trap. And the opinions of Konstantin aren't worthy of citing here at all. Hes a podcaster who amplifies right ring talking points for virality. Hes not an academic or qualified via profession. He's a grifter with no talent or intellect www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The new Magic Knight Rayearth anime has revealed the cast members for Emeraude, Zagato, and Mokona.

While in Britain the press has been lapping up racist nonsense and claims of two-tier policing over the death of Henry Nowak, this has been happening in Ireland. I don’t recall any reports about Yves Sakila in the British press.

This week, @vestenet.bsky.social and I finally acquiesce to the demands of my high school weeb friends and check out Fushigi Yugi!

First wave isekai is the best isekai - no doubt about it.

One kind of isekai is on the wane, but another, earlier form seems to be ascendant! Chris and Sylvia hop in their time machine for a look at when the genre was primarily aimed at girls.

The @edfringe.bsky.social programme is out...

Every few months a police WhatsApp group gets leaked and we get to read the rape and murder fantasies of a bunch of Nazi cops but, sure, they’re all too woke and white people are the ones to suffer, ok, fine.

Fantasic. Well done, Dark Horse.

Remember when people online once argued that calling them Nazis was reactionary and hyperbole? Disinformation campaigns, concentration camps, removal of civil rights, propaganda as news, decline of health & services, & now we’re at the escalation of the dehumanization step — for those keeping track

Also, you can argue that he already is a trillionaire- it just depends on what currency you use. He’s already a trillionaire in Canadian dollars or Aussie dollars.

I mean I don't hear a single one of them saying "we're going to appropriate your money and put you on trial for mass murder" so they're less "taking aim" and more "empty posturing"

Yep. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is the American version of the Nazi film Der Ewige Jude (the Eternal Jew) where Jews were compared to rats. Same energy, same intent. Comparing immigrants to extraterrestrials. Just horrible.

More anime studios need to work with the creators of Ghanian film posters. #weebwednesday

The Sun, The Times, The Guardian and The Telegraph mentioned JK Rowling 106 times in their coverage.  Trans people were mentioned by name 24 times. 

The only was the red fox should be on a British banknote is if it is going through someone's bins.

Stewart Lee was brilliant tonight: "If you're unsure of which toilets you can use feel free to shit in a bag and mail it to Graham Linehan, he sorts through them by hand"

Don’t call Chris Mason, “Chris Mason”, call Chris Mason “Shithead”.

Only six gay icons on Wikipedia, and one of those is fictional. Happy Pride Month!

there are only six figures with entire wikipedia articles specifically devoted to their status as a gay icon

Goodness me. I hope I don't turn in into a prick in 5 years time

How are transgender parents currently registered on their children’s birth certificates in the UK? We are supporting the TransReg study, conducted by researchers at the University of Zurich and KU Leuven, to gather anonymous data on the birth registration process for trans parents.

i remember getting very annoyed decades ago with a columnist who'd written about some local council job ad; "what does this job description even MEAN?" they thundered, apparently not realising that they could call the council and ask bravo to @londoncentric.media for picking up the phone and asking

Only 36 new far-right British political parties til Christmas

Where is the TERF Bathroom Bill? Where is the legislation to ban the ones who actually assault and grope women in public bathrooms? I’ll never stop pointing out that they’re banning us because they’ve merely imagined us doing the things *they* do. All while funded by literal nonces.

The focus on bans has made public bathrooms more dangerous for everyone, trans and cis alike. Indiscriminate assaults committed by the violently genderanged have only spiked along with them. It was legit safer when trans people could harmlessly go to the toilet like we have for decades.

"The trust was created in 1936 to 'secure the financial and editorial independence of The Guardian in perpetuity and to safeguard the journalistic freedom and liberal values of The Guardian free from commercial or political interference'." Physician/shill, heal thyself.

A reminder that The Guardian has a strategic partnership with OpenAI ergo can't be trusted
