Headline: Hermitage & Gardens candidates Ata and Fin demand action on LOCAL estate agent spreading hate Letter excerpt: Dear Cllr Sarah Williams, We are writing as the Green Party councillor candidates for the Hermitage & Gardens ward of Haringey to express our deep concern following the recent article by London Centric regarding the real estate company SmartLet Estates based in Hermitage and Gardens, and the social media account tied to them using tenants’ homes to spread anti-migrant hate and misinformation.[1] After a series of viral TikTok videos posted by the same account falsely claimed that homes were being handed out to “illegal immigrants” for free, it was found by journalists...

Bridging identity with account links One of the most common questions we get here is, “can you help me connect all my different accounts?” You’re on Bluesky, and Instagram, and Mastodon, you make a video series on YouTube, you have a blog, sometimes you post on Reddit, and a while back you set up

Got another new post! Bridging identity with account links. They’re a simple, modular way to connect your various accounts and posts across the open social web. Bridgy Fed supports them, and we’d love to see other apps and platforms adopt them too.

Feedback is welcome. And support us on Patreon!

We were joined this afternoon by MPs @luketaylorld.bsky.social, @bobbywdean.bsky.social and @paulkohlersw19.bsky.social 👋

Luke, Bobby and Paul met with Dr @maggiecheang.bsky.social to discuss her role at the ICR and the impact of her interdisciplinary research in the @icr-ctsu.bsky.social

If you bought a Framework Laptop 13 at its original launch, it required a lot of blind faith. The idea of a laptop you could upgrade yourself was spectacular in theory, but here we are, more than four years later, seeing Framework’s grand ambitions come to fruition.

How we can smash Britain’s two-party system for good at the next election | George Monbiot Labour is beyond repair. Time for a co-ordinated strategy to support progressive parties committed to electoral reform, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

By betraying his voters so comprehensively and so soon, Keir Starmer has done us a favour. He has given us 4 years to design the government we want.
In this week's column I explain how it can be done. There's massive
potential, but we need to start now. 🧵

Labour 43.9 Green 34.3 With a graph of the polling percentages with greens rising.

Great to see this happening in my neighborhood - I'm not surprised.

Obviously no reflection on Diane at all - it's entirely a response to the awful Labour Government who are turning people away in their droves.

Expect more of this & we'll be here with the positive alternative.

Happy to share details of this meeting and the exciting line-up of speakers. Hope to see you there. Please re-post www.crick.ac.uk/whats-on/5th...

Me at junction

Temporary fence because there’s been another crash

Good morning from a Bounds Green Busybody, denim jacket over my pyjamas at the main junction at 7 AM, because there’s been a huge crash here overnight.

The Facebook group last showed a car still here, stuck on the railings. There will be hundreds and hundreds of kids … 1/8

TANK vs TESLA

Kudos to Youssef Arafat who defended his PhD "Application of computer vision and artificial intelligence techniques on histological and microscopical data". Tks to examiners @david-j-barry.bsky.social (@crick.ac.uk), Dr Ferran Valderrama (@citystgeorges.bsky.social) and chair: @emp1.bsky.social

On a Nature news article reporting that NIH planned to suspend subawards for foreign collaborations: “No, that’s false. There’s going to be a policy on tracking subawards. The NIH and the government should be able to see where the money’s going.” “I’m really uncomfortable with this conversation, because you’re like, actually spreading rumors that you don’t know anything about. … Nature also is spreading rumors. Halt foreign collaborations, that’s not true.” “We’re working on the policy, Jocelyn. You shouldn’t be reporting rumors. I know there’s leaks all over here, but the leaks don’t actually reflect what’s happening. Don’t write about rumors. It actually makes the things that you and I care about worse. Like it spreads panic.” Later that day, NIH released a policy that halted future subawards to foreign scientists and said they will need to apply directly for money under a system still in development.

With NIH director Jayanta Bhattacharya dismissing my reporting as "false" and "spreading rumors" hours before releasing a policy that confirmed said "rumors," I feel compelled to respond.

Here's an inside look into how this story was reported. It was a weird one. 🧵
