This is a cat check point: relinquish your most recent cat picture on your phone

Details re: the demo against Robinson's union invitation here, follow "@oxfordresists" on Instagram for updates

Anyway, Oxford will be demonstrating against this, come join on May 28th if you're nearby

why bother watching Americans and Brits argue over who has the best food when I could simply watch two bald men fighting over a comb instead

Chat; is mass unemployment among the middleclass beneficial to the economy?

Anyone seen a 'He's got to say that; once he's in, he'll move left' in the wild yet?

Jess Philips continuing to promote the lie that there is magical technology which can accurately prevent children sexting or producing CSAM of themselves is disturbing and irresponsible. No such technology exists, in order to train a computer to recognise it, you would need to train it on CSAM.

I think the bit a lot of people here are refusing to acknowledge is that Josh Simons is standing down for absolutely no reason other than internal Labour fuckery. There is no reason for this by election to be happening, Labour are doing this for no reason. Them making demands looks and is stupid.

I in no way pity him, because he brought it on himself but I can't help thinking of Starmer reading all his former sensibles' posts, going 'what the fuck?'

'As a member of the green party please consider....' Bull. Shit.

How to lose an election in one easy step.

Lmao

Record number of UK people turning to crowdfunding to cover rent and household bills. Average real wage hardly changed since 2008. Millions rely on food banks. Healthy life expectancy shrinking. Record number of billionaires. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined.

'Good' landlord in my mentions

Hey, did anything happen about this? Seems relevent attue moment when one party is demanding another party step aside for 'progressions sake'. www.thenational.scot/news/2589179...

Listen, I'm extremely glad that my current landlord will find it harder to exist me on a whim, that I won't have to pay a year's rent in advance to secure a home again and can have pets. But it doesn't change the fact that 43.5% of my wage goes to a private landlord. For an ex-council house.

We absolutely dwarfed the fash yesterday. Thousands more people choosing solidarity and kindness over coked-up bile and violence. I feel like knowing this might make a lot of people in this country feel a bit less frightened and alone. So it'd be lovely if just one major media outlet reported it.

Love this ceasefire.

you cannot support his work in any way anymore

I discourage party politics talk at work* but the other week someone mentioned Wes Streeting on the radio and one of the lads went 'Which one is he? The shiny cunt?'

He's also a cunt, and everyone knows it.

New definition of 'gullible' just dropped.

Allowing Tommy Robinson to stage this on the same day as both Nakba Day and the FA Cup Final is nothing short of criminally negligent to public safety by the Home Sec and he head of the Met. Fucking insane.

Someone seems to have tried to unleash the might of the Conservative Party on Bluesky into my mentions....

Caught one that just spotted it... I saw that delete 😉

You know, one way we could have stopped Reform was to all have voted Tory at the last election. DIDN'T THINK OF THAT, DID YOU, YOU SELFISH LIBS?!!!

All quiet on the West Yorkshire front

I'm a little bit in love

Deliberately stayed away during the election to avoid dumbass takes and choose *now* to come back.

That would explain the historically monumental effort Labour made to stop Farage becoming a MP in the first place.

What i think is really funny is how everybody in Labour has decided to crack on with a leadership election while Keir is presumably like. Guys. I havent resigned. What are you doing

If you have 402 sitting MPs in your party and you can't find one - ONE - that could win a general election, it's your party's problem, not any others.

If I chose to leave my keys and a blank transfer of ownership on a table in a crowded pub, if it's not my mate that picks them up and drives off in my car, I'm still the one responsible for being a careless twat.

This was a terrible idea

Both these cats have the zoomies and I'm not going to have a living room tomorrow

My descent into crazy cat lady has been steeper than I anticipated....

Popped back on to celebrate something nice and the first thing I see is the frontrunner for the American 'opposition' cracking "You're gay!" jokes.

Happy Caterpillar Day 🙂🐛

Think this constant bombardment of AI and the underlying (though disguised) distain of much of the user base to women is going to put the nail in the Bluesky coffin for me. It was fun, but this fucking sucks.

"You seem to have developed an individual style. I can fix that".

Up In Town Cringe, slightly repellant at points, delightful at others. A monologue of the vapid. (And filled with ASMR)

I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.

I can't be personally sure, but I think your first crush hits different when you are queer 🥰

can i vote for the guy who did the NOT PORN blocklist?

If I ever am granted the superhuman power I crave, I'm going to use them on men that emotionally manipulate women into believing they are in a meaningful relationship which is nothing of the kind, and you will all be shocked at the number of 'left wing' and 'progressive' heads that will explode.

'Facing a system designed to protect male leads at all costs' is still the reality not just in this industry, but in the workforce as a whole, society in general and often even our homes. Happy fucking International Women’s Day.

I was thinking that Starmer was in an impossible position, but having everyone ready to slag you off whatever you do means you might as well do the right thing.

I have watched this approximately 47 times and laughed out loud 47 times

I love penguins and kids and art so this is pretty much a perfect post
