The Glorious 25th, or in my case, Night Watch reread day. #gnuterrypratchett

Seems like a good thing for people to know if they use Squarespace

Summary by Jake Baker-Brown: "27 law students in Vanuatu went to the world's highest court and won. The ICJ ruling they sparked may be the most consequential legal decision in human history. This is what it looks like when ordinary people refuse to accept the limits others set for them."

All Hail Chaos was very difficult for me to write partly because I wanted to write that experience of being abandoned. I was lucky, most people stayed, but my closest creative community was blown apart when a close friend made fun of a time when I could barely walk or breathe from cancer.

Four drivers on the grid have won at least four GPs in a row. The only one not in this picture is Fernando Alonso.

there is a reason why most people are like 'i only ever saw the discourse about the discourse'. it's because it was like one guy who doesn't matter that you probably already have blocked.

I’m going to fight whoever’s making decisions around what to show on the world feed. It’s so bad today #f1

Wow, more reliability issues. Feels retro #f1

Oh come on #f1

I wouldn't want to be a Mercedes strategist today, having to decide who gets to pit first ... #F1 #CanadianGP

This is incredible, defence and attack. Norris must be wishing he was watching from p3 and not p12 though

This is surely going to be an interesting start

I got in some time practicing my manuals and skate spins during qualifying. (Sat down when things got to the crucial laps, surprises on skates aren’t good.) I’m already feeling better on the new wheels - few more skate tweaks to make when I get appropriate tools but mostly I just need practice

Admittedly I did turn to my gf and say “I don’t support him any more” after that. But Ocon’s “Estie bestie‘s on the podium, baby” is the all time worst, I think.

That was fun as hell. Cheered when Russell got it at the end! Fight is on. But there’d better be some overtakes tomorrow #f1

A photo of me and my baby! Look at us! So grateful to have interviewed @sorayanadiamcdonald.com and so many other brilliant mediamakers for this book. Media *can* be an engine for a better and bigger democracy, order us and find out how 👩🏾‍🏫

one thing about kimi is that he's definitely 19 years old, no doubt about that

Settled in for sprint #f1

If I were gonna have a freak out about the sanctity of women’s athletics it would be about the appalling disparity between resources given to male vs female athletes not a handful of trans women who want to compete

relatable characters are important they tell me #allhailchaos #booksky

Felt like a very exciting end to quali, so much so that I was surprised when it turned out to be a team-by-team lineup #f1

Wow, the depression of that Aston garage. #f1

Missed why Lawson is missing sprint quali? #f1

It’s early in the season yet but I’m pretty sure Albon is not going to be remembering 2026 fondly.

Interesting thread about evidence of Neanderthal medical treatment!

Do you have a folder titled "Body Symptoms"? Be aware Symptomosis can hide Meta Symptom Syndrome, Chronic Symptom Disorder or Autoimmune Unsureitis. Medical literature often says "Yes, but..." Doctors increasingly find Symptomosis symptoms curious, but only suggest being less fat about it.

Do you have excessive symptoms? You may have Symptomosis, Symptomitis, or Symptom Syndrome. Symptoms are excessive symptoms at unexpected times, dates, and/or moments. Symptoms may include noticing, researching or forgetting symptoms, symptoms improving or worsening, or just saying "oh that's odd."

This company that has built an apparently unworkable system for Irish Rail, reportedly headed to the bin at the cost of €50 million, is the same company the NTA has hired to bring contactless payments to Dublin's bus system. www.dublininquirer.com/the-nta-has-...

Brave people - it’s some comfort that this has raised a political reaction from those who’ve otherwise let Israel’s rulers behave as they want. www.thejournal.ie/430-activist...

We’re publishing Sally Rooney in Hebrew, in line with BDS. Here’s how and why. www.972mag.com/sally-rooney...

there are so many people on here who behave like undersocialized dogs finding out for the first time that dog parks exist

It’s not at the top of my hated websites (an internal one wins) but I have such a passionate loathing for one of Ireland’s two house sale websites - this is the utterly shit one, Daft (name aside) isn’t too bad: www.myhome.ie

Has anyone here tried this? I might give it a go www.timclarepoet.co.uk/couchto80kwritingbootcamp/

Please recommend me more things that deshittify the enshittified web — I am ALL EARS for sure.

I really have to find a setting on this dial that isn’t “angry” or “lonely” or “immersed in distraction“

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Yup, that’s where we’re at!

Also, if you forgot to unfollow before blocking and don't want to still appear in the "people you follow who also follow this account" block when other people view his account, you can temporarily unblock, unfollow, reblock directly at bsky.app/profile/neil...

Just a little PSA- Neil Gaiman has reactivated his Bluesky account. Because he deactivated before a lot of people could unfollow him, and/or because Bluesky doesn’t remove you from a person’s followers when you block them, a LOT of you are still publicly listed as following him. You should check.

In a terrible yap mood. Very specifically the “want to tell a stranger all my secrets and vice versa then we never meet again” kind of mood. I used to just use the internet for that but the lighting is wrong nowadays

Mid-year #goals: 🏋️‍♀️ Squat 60kg 🛼 Get two types of spin solid on skates 👩‍🎓 GRADUATE

Good weekend! I’ve had some time to do nothing, some time by the sea, some time to dance, some time with friends. Feeling less starved of meaningful time with people

so I think this actually plays a role in it too - tech used to get the benefit of the doubt because they successfully presented themselves as cool nerds who wanted to make the world better the AI rollout has coincided with the tech overlords going openly fash, so people assume the worst instead

It is absolutely insane that people doing 'research' are just openly posting on the internet about how they don't check the sources that they cite in their papers are legit. And arguing that it's unfair to expect them to actually check their sources are legit AND correct.

Yikes, was just saying to someone I can’t watch motorcycle racing because it’s so dangerous. Hope everyone involved is alive, intact, and recovering ❤️‍🩹

Trying to explain how I know something is AI-written honestly makes me feel like a dowser, or a psychic attempting to convince a sceptic. I have spent a ludicrous amount of my one precious life reading text in many forms. I know without being able to say “here’s why”. There’s water there, OK.
