Article reads: Woman named as Archbishop of Canterbury in historic first The 63-year-old archbishop-designate is married to Eamonn Mullally, with whom she has two children. Originally from Woking in Surrey, she was the UK's chief nursing officer from 1999 to 2004.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

I'm the same, and don't know whether it's my dyslexia or my autism. Either way, reading from a screen (other than e-ink) is a pain

The weather has turned - I have dug out my giant Yeti mug that requires 3 teabags to make a decent cup of tea, but keeps it warm for over 5 hours 💕

You and me both 😂

All the people who sneered at Polanski (and at the Scottish Greens) for not immediately promising to stand aside in favour of the mailing list that may never be a party might want to think about what's the most likely route to a meaningful left bloc in parliament at this point.

Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:

Spain votes to boycott Eurovision if Israel competes Broadcaster RTVE is now the fifth to threaten withdrawal from Eurovision over Israel, following the Netherlands, Ireland, Slovenia and Iceland.

The BBC should now do the same.

Israel must not be allowed to use Eurovision to whitewash genocide.

London’s Trans Pride March Just Shattered Its Turnout Record Organizers say it was the largest transgender rights march in the world.

Reminder that 100,000 people marched for Trans Pride in London earlier this year, but because they weren't violent fascists, there was minimal press coverage, unlike the Nazis today.

The slow but real progression into fascism as charted by the évolution of the lego police officier Lego police officier looking meaner and meaner.

Good morning Bluesky !

On this day in 2022, Oscar Piastri posted THAT tweet.

Writing a blog post for work, so stressful, much tweaking 😁

This is her, not in her most "fox" mode, but pretty close

I have a dog that looks like a fox when she curls up ☺️

CN: extreme ableism

I know we don't bring the other site here, but there is something truly ugly stirring for UK disabled people there. In amongst the normal Nazi talking points, a very popular account has made a tool for checking if people's cars are Motability cars.

Been sent this from Eurobike, a prototype balance cargo bike for 3-5 year olds. Just take my money.

"Engineers and developers are often quite neurodivergent aren't they? So, why don't we invent a completely different specialism called project management and fill it with the most neurotypical people we can find? They're bound to really effectively understand and complement each other. Sorted!"

This is super-important, so have a little alt text:

amongussexgif ... Instead of being in settings its in the google app. Also, google, not chrome. Icon is a G, not the circle thing. Click on your pfp to open a menu From there, go Settings > Gemini > Digital Assistants > Switch to Google Assistant. This disables Gemini, google's Al assistant, and switches you back to the old one. We aren't done yet. Go back to Settings. From there, we go Settings > Google Assistant > scroll to find General > Google Assitant on/off > turn it off They really tried their best to make it a pain, but you can eventually disable it. Holding the power button on your phone still pulls up a menu and asks you to turn it back on, but this is the least intrusive you can make it. Applies to all non-apple phones afaik. For sure Samsungs and Pixels but idrk about others Edit: thank you my friend @/teeth-kid for confirming that this also works on Motorola

@cmcdonald141.bsky.social Random, but wanted to say hi. I did my honours project on developing a life logging app for use in individualised reminiscence therapy for people with dementia, so your PhD mention caught my eye (also saw your knitting ☺️)

This is who runs this account.

It's been a rough couple of weeks, hoping for a quiet weekend while simultaneously wanting to do *something*

This outtake tho.

Why does the UK strive to copy the US so much, it's almost never a good idea. Get those period apps deleted for your own safety folks!

We're bringing a legal challenge to the EHRC’s ‘Interim Update’ A number of trans and intersex individuals have today begun a legal challenge to the EHRC’s ‘Interim Update’ following the For Women, Scotland decision

Along with a man and a woman who are trans, and someone who is intersex, we are suing the EHRC and the Equalities Minister in respect of the disgraceful and unlawful EHRC guidance.

In line with our transparency principles we are publishing the full 32 page legal letter. goodlaw.social/2ihj

The Assisted Dying Bill Stage 1 debate is today at Holyrood. Please ask your MSPs to vote No: here and now, there is nothing like a free choice between assisted dying and the best possible life til the last breath. Medical and social care are in tatters and we live in an ableist hellscape. No.

Amy would do that with straws, to the extent she'd steal them out of your glass 🤭
