UK military equipment used by militia accused of genocide found in Sudan, UN told Exclusive: two dossiers of material seen by the security council raise questions over export of British arms to the UAE, which has been accused of supplying weapons to paramilitary RSF group

Evidence is now coming to light of UK complicity in a *third* consecutive world leading humanitarian catastrophe. Few countries have a record of complicity in mass murder quite like Britain's. It goes beyond this or that government. It's a structural phenomenon.

There you go:

“I’m strong and I want to have like fifty kids and a farm” of course you do. You’re twelve. “I don’t want to eat vegetables I think steak and French fries is the only meal” hell yeah homie you’re twelve. “Maybe if there’s crime we should just send the army” bless your heart my twelve year old buddy

this is the stupidest government of my entire life.

I love how you guys always jump to "DO YOU THINK REFORM WOULD BE GOOD!?"

No, no I don't and that's not a defence of Labour
Labour are already stripping away my rights, so while yes Reform would be shit, so are Labour

Labour are LITERALLY stripping away trans rights right now

all the anxiety human evolution developed to help me spot bears now kicks in when i have to answer emails

I genuinely cannot express how vital it is that you train yourself to recognize AI-generated images and videos for your own good because none of this is going away and many, many people are counting on you to fall for their shit

Israel’s arms imports from UK hit record high values. The only thing I can say to the British government is this, how can I believe what you say but I see what you do?

Agree. Enjoying the bright mornings, sunshine and fresh air. The damp doesn't work too well with Afro hair I will admit, but I'll take to braiding my hair and an ability to buy my own house 😍

Midlander - Londoner, & wannabe Mancunian here. I lived & worked in Soho & watched the decline. It was my favourite place in all of London when I first moved. 6 months in Manchester. It makes me feel even sadder for Soho, but selfishly, happy that I moved somewhere that gives a shit about community

its so funny our current moment is like 10 big companies pretending theyre building agi while knowing they are not and none of the other guys are too, but if they admit it then the investor dollars stop. big game of fraud chicken

Sorry I keep talking about this but I’m genuinely alarmed by the growing narrative that poverty is a cause of racism. First it’s super insulting of people on low incomes. Second it normalises & excuses racist takes. And third it deters real action on racism by shifting the whole focus to economics.

Also an important lesson for cis White folks (straight men especially): Your threat of withholding support or allyship means less than nothing to anyone historically marginalized. It's literally the baseline assumption we work from. You're not "showing us," you're just confirming our expectations.

that's not a very nice way to refer to London museums

Israel accused of detaining Greta Thunberg in infested cell and making her hold flags Activist tells Swedish officials she has been subjected to harsh treatment, including insufficient food and water

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

It's like a Fast Show character

“And in this respect, I’m coming to understand the AI hype machine as part and parcel of the fascistic project. That’s not an analogy. I’m not saying AI is similar to fascism, or parallel to it. I’m saying AI is fascism.”

I’m legit excited to learn that there are workplaces banning it!

Every accusation is an admission. Every single time.

Pussyfooting around racists is the main reason why we are where we are right now. Too many people too scared to call a spade a spade, and now it's digging all our graves.

I'm watching that documentary "Before Stonewall" about gay history pre-1969, and uncovered something which I think is interesting. The documentary includes a brief clip of a 1954 televised newscast about the rise of homosexuality. The host of the program interviewed psychologists, a police officer, and one "known homosexual". The "known homosexual" is 22 years old. He identifies himself as Curtis White, which is a pseudonym; his name is actually Dale Olson. So I tracked down the newscast. According to what I can find, Dale Olson may have been the first gay man to appear openly on television and defend his sexual orientation. He explains that there's nothing wrong with him mentally and he's never been arrested. When asked whether he'd take a cure if it existed, he says no. When asked whether his family knows he's gay, he says that they didn't up until tonight, but he guesses they're going to find out, and he'll probably be fired from his job as well. So of course the host is like ... why are you doing this interview then? and Dale Olson, cool as cucumber pie, says "I think that this way I can be a little useful to someone besides myself." 1954. 22 years old. Balls of pure titanium. Despite the pseudonym, Dale's boss did indeed recognize him from the TV program, and he was promptly fired the next day. He wrote into ONE magazine six months later to reassure readers that he had gotten a new job at a higher salary. Curious about what became of him, I looked into his life a little further. It turns out that he ultimately became a very successful publicity agent. He promoted the Rocky movies and Superman. Not only that, but get this: Dale represented Rock Hudson, and he was the person who convinced him to disclose that he had AIDS! He wrote the statement Rock read. And as we know, Rock Hudson's disclosure had a very significant effect on the national conversation about AIDS in the U.S.

Some amazing gay history. Listen up kids.
