Keir Starmer: it is unbritish to go to a protest on October 7th.

Mark Ruffalo: that's my secret chief... I'm always unbritish.

Tfw your being called unbritish because you're opposing a genocide.

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.
AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

This happened last night and I hadn't heard about it until this post, so went to the BBC News homepage. You have to go all the way down the page, below recipes for 30 minute meals, and you find it as a text link in 'politics'.

Glasgow Gender Clinic now has a waiting time of 224 years. The average across the UK is now 25 years.

This segregated system isn’t working and is wasting millions. The NHS has been told time and again - informed consent now.

on one hand the government is occupied by people who want to rob and kill you. on the other hand they have no popular mandate and they believe competence itself is woke and gay.

I've been on Bluesky for five minutes and I've already seen no fewer than five posts about collective transsexual misery.

Hugs all around πŸ«‚ but also girl go to that knitting club. Play some online chess. Write fanfiction. Pick up a guitar.

It's good for your soul.

Tell me again, cultural critic, how you don't believe the BDS approach is effective and that their demands are unrealistic because you don't want to stop playing with your toys.

Absolutely spot on - and also completely in line with their essential purity/taboo ideas of sex. Tale as old as time: this kind of sex is dirty, but I want it, therefore the dirt 'belongs' to the object of desire, who can be sectioned off and disposed of as contaminated, while I remain clean.

there's a big problem with the culture here on bluesky, and it's that not nearly enough people are posting about the 10 year anniversary of Carly Rae Jepsen's groundbreaking and timeless album EMOTION being this year and how awesome that is

One reason I do not think Trump is going to create a 1,000 year reich is because he failed to cancel a middling funnyman and immediately pivoted to trying to outlaw not having a headache.

you can love a character and still admit when they're wrong. we love Shadow but we can acknowledge his flaws (he has none) and we can hold him accountable for his wrongdoings (he has never done anything wrong in his life) and call him out on his actions (which are always correct)

reminder that Disney+ has still been on the Palestinian BDS boycott list for over a year.

You should continue the pressure and continue withholding your money from them.

the notion that trans women have an advantage in sports is entirely made up and has no basis in science. it's based on the notion that trans women are cross-dressing cis men

what little peer reviewed science that has been done shows that, if anything, trans women have a disadvantage over cis women

not to make this all about my own interests, but we NEED more people to discover audio dramas

not only do they rule, but they're probably one of the few entertainment mediums left that aren't mostly controlled by massive companies vulnerable to corruption/pressure

the most successful ADs are indie

The "student politics" thing really comes down to the fact that for most of our political and media class, the last time they had to deal with a left winger challenging them was when they were doing student politics themselves.
