Twitter was always significantly less popular with women than men. There’s just big differences in the platforms people engage with based on gender. Maybe not great but difficult to do much about, and certainly not a new trend.

I recently came across a book in Oxfam that was the sheet music for how to play all the songs from the TV show Glee on a ukulele.

Which feels like such an artefact of a very specific cultural moment.

I try my best. Thanks James!

What a sentence.

We made a video about Wetherspoon and the crisis in British pubs.

And, in order to do so, went on a road trip from the UK's most-southerly spoons to its most northerly...

...only eating, drinking, and sleeping in Wetherspoon's pubs along the way.

Haha, we've not got that far yet...

It was a pleasure to have @tomnicholas.bsky.social as our first guest on this episode of @redbarrelspodcast.bsky.social!

Join us as we discuss the excellent Citizen Sleeper and gaming news ranging from the exciting to the baffling!

I'm gonna be knocking around this year's Games Transformed as the "whoever else we can think to invite" category of person that @chrisbratt.bsky.social mentions here.

Maybe wearing a costume? I dunno. I kinda just say yes to stuff.

But you should come along!

Thank you!

Holy balls this is a good video essay

Abolishing the refuse department in favour of a city-wide system of rag and bone men because it never did me any harm.

Thank you! I’m really glad you found it interesting!

Honestly a really fantastic video essay, I highly recommend watching it.

It's making me reinterpret how I hear about Trump and how our Labour party in the UK is failing.

Reform UK councils are gonna be wild.

It’s the sort of “after the revolution, who’s gonna take out the bins” but they *only* really have the power to take out (or not) the bins.

And their decisions will be entirely guided by what this week’s right-wing, AI slop memes have to say about bins.

Thank you Mark, I'm really glad there was some interesting stuff in there for you!

Genuinely an amazing video that really opened my eyes to why it seems our establishments are so feckless. I'll be extremely interested to see how the new conceptualization of ideology shapes our politics in these dire times.

Ooh, I don't have one to hand. We licence our music from Epidemic Sound usually, so it will largely be from their stash of tracks!

Oh, thank you! I'm really glad you found it so interesting.

This latest video by Tom Nicholas is amazing. In it, he perfectly captures what is so frustrating about Western centrist political leaders who completely lack any bold vision, & how in the fearful avoidance of having any ideology, right wingers with horrifying but bold visions are filling the void.

Came across this excellent example of "I know the data says one thing, but I have this single anecdote" today.

Just think of the financial damage the film Conclave has done to the explainer journalism industrial complex.

Outlets which would otherwise have made bank on "How the Next Pope Will Be Chosen, Explained" articles and videos left purposeless as readers cry "don't worry, we know".

Start a timer now.

I'm running a sweepstakes on how long it takes before we discover this app inadvertently pairs students by IQ or familial wealth or head circumference or something.

In a period where people want their politicians to be human and accessible, so much of his stuff is staged, or pre-planned, or you can sense the press officer just off-screen ready to step in if a question goes off topic.
