www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio... I guess the mass unsubscribing contributed too, funny they don't mention it. It's all discussions and judgements and not "that really f*cking hurt our streaming income!"

No particular reason

Tonight at 11:30

Charlie Kirk wasn't even on my radar till he was murdered. When the news came out, I had to look up who he was. I wonder many of the people performatively mourning his death also didn't actually know who he was.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social when did the USA become North Korea?

What exactly is it about trans people that inspires such disproportionate self-incinerating rage in people who fall down anti-trans rabbit holes? That we've kinda done nothing is precisely why it's so disproportionate, to the conspiracy addled, it's more proof of our secretive far-reaching power.

I am looking to chat with people who have been disparagingly featured in Zack “Asmongold” Hoyt’s content. I would like to see how this affected you, especially if you can provide ample receipts and clear timelines. Please signal boost this anywhere you’d like, as I’m not on Twitter anymore.

I can strongly recommend this. The sci fi scale is epic, the characters are well rounded and slice of life adorable and then there's moments of pure steel. It's a hoot!

TODAY'S COMIC: What Artists Do

AI once again favouring talking points of the right hand side of UK politics. Adding the word "actually" to the query "are millionaires leaving the UK" turns the answer 180 degrees. Do your own research people.

Today’s poem is called ‘How Much I Dislike the Daily Mail’.

You've GOT to be kidding me! The Conservatives - who oversaw every single thing on this list - are trying to claim that only the Conservatives would "stop the madness" - that they created...? So incredulity aside, what about the list itself? Let's go Debunking! 1/34

Happy National Relaxation Day to all those who celebrate.

Every single person who is under the mistaken impression that their whiteness, conservatism, even their own fascism will save them is highly mistaken. That “first they came for” poem was written by a Nazi who once thought he was safe too. No one is safe under a fascist regime. No one.

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... Good news story!

Pikachu, I Choose You.

I would normally wish my American friends happy fourth of July today. This year let's just go with a hearty "hang in there folks"

This is not what the people in charge of educational excellence should be worrying about. When they start coming up with reasons to avoid change that are unrelated to their reason for existing, they've already lost. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

If you ever feel exhausted for caring about the destruction of the planet, the rise of racism or the wellbeing of others then just remember this: Very bad people are pouring billions into far right propaganda to try to radicalise you and it hasn’t worked. You’re unfuckwithable.

I let my garden grow whatever it wants, got lots of clover this year and now lots of baby ladybirds hanging out on the wall 😊

A lot of people have questioned our No Kings crowd estimates. Most are citing a 5 million turnout, which is fair. It’s conservative and easy to verify. The media claims L.A. only had 25,000 people, but it doesn’t take much digging to see that number is very low.

Tiny part.

new (!) Psycho Killer vid just dropped www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJ54...

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

If you watch only one video today, let it be this one. Watch NYU Stern School of Business Professor Scott Galloway’s outstanding commentary on what prosperity and wealth should mean in America. His words could not be more on point and timely. Please pass it on.

Time to clarify something. When authors say “Unbound haven’t paid me” that makes it sound like Unbound had some money, which they used to buy authors’ writing. Unbound had no money. The authors did: we had raised that money. They were holding it in trust. Unbound stole our money.

I made a video essay explaining why, in my view, Israel is committing genocide under international law. I hope this helps frame the issue a little bit better and explain why there is a consensus among academics that this is indeed a genocide. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmCl...

It’s Mary Anning’s birthday, so time to share @katebeaton.bsky.social’s brilliant cartoon again.

Got mine this morning! Thanks Tom!

I made a few adjustments and reuploaded my video. You cannot silence an Italian girl from New York. YouTube is complicit in my harassment and the harassment of others. Please like, share, comment, subscribe, and signal boost. Thank you all <3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5mn...

I loved watching the moomins in the 80s. I only just learned the UK version is known as the fuzzy felt version. It was stop motion and very gentle. Lovely music too. I will enjoy seeing these around town. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Birdsong is something that can be a vital part of your well-being for years without you noticing or appreciating it, like having intact internal organs.

DOGE was never about savings. It was always about surveillance. Over the weekend, we released new details—and now whistleblowers are coming forward too. What’s becoming clearer by the day: DOGE isn’t a government efficiency program. It’s a data weapon aimed at the American people.

Without downloading any new pictures, where are you mentally?

If the FBI are investigating Tesla arson as domestic terrorism this means they can focus on you just for talking about it online and presumably for attending protests. Also Elon can claim government money back for acts against Tesla. www.wired.com/story/fbi-te...

Post a picture of when your pet was little

Watching this pair of bald eagles hatching and now raising 3 chicks has been the most calming thing I've ever become obsessed with. Thanks again for sharing this!

To my fellow American women, the Republican government is LITERALLY coming for your vote… youtu.be/nZocqZvcYn8

No way Pringles are putting Luigi on their cans? It surprised the hell out of me to see Luigi in any other context than memes directed at oligarchs. That's either brilliant or someone at the top of marketing doesn't know about Mangione and nobody else is telling them. Actually that's brilliant too.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

"I would like regular reports from my staff" has no resemblance whatsoever to what Elon is trying to do, which is get *literally the entire government to email him a job update so his racist AI can decide whether to fire them* you do everyone an enormous disservice by pretending these are related

Inflation is rising "driven largely by increased private school fees" Why the hell are private school fees in the basket of items used to calculate inflation for the whole country. Most of the country don't buy that. Meat and bread, yes! Private school fees no. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c5...

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

I'm not sure how this isn't fraud of some kind. Click change plan and there's only one plan. Click cancel and suddenly there's a cheaper plan. If I had an option, I'd have cancelled.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Oh AI, you silly goose. What a fun story. Almost as good as the one where Google removed their objection to using AI in weaponry.

In Finland we have a saying, "an idiot is an idiot, even if it's fried in butter"...seems to fit here.
