That Trump plan to end the war is for Ukraine to surrender, right?

TERFdom is a patriarchal project in drag.

Congrats to Jennifer English for winning the Best Lead Performer award at the 2025 #GoldenJoystickAwards!

And her acceptance speech about queer joy was a love letter to @aliona.bsky.social 🥹🌈

Digital painting of a knight in armour carrying a shield im trans pride colours. There is a heraldry unicorn with a bloody horn rearing up on it. Above the words Resist Rejoyce Remember. A decorative border shows dandelions.

It's Trans Day of Remembrance.

They won't ever be able to get rid of us, no matter what. No amount of hateful legislation can change the fact of our existence.

Just a snip from the full ‘5m overpaid student loans and can reclaim’ new episode of the Martin Lewis Podcast. Listen to it all on bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand..., Apple, Spotify & all the usual pod players

Jennifer English realizing she's a lesbian and falling in love with one of her mocap directors (Aliona Baranova) over the course of making BG3 and seeing all the queer folks embracing Shadowheart and the impact the game had is genuinely one of the best stories in game production in a long time

Susie Dent: always on point

Word of the day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet politician whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

June: ‘We’re an island of strangers’

September: ‘We’re in a fight for the soul of the nation’

November: ‘No residency for 20 years and we’ll take the family heirlooms that are all you have from the homes you fled’

When we dehumanise refugees, we dehumanise ourselves - Bylines Scotland If we allow lies and propaganda to inform our views of refugees, what does that say about us?

Seems like a good day to post this...

The Great AI Bubble Yes, it's a bubble. And yes, it's going to burst.

NEW: Welcome to the Great AI Bubble. Yes, it’s here. And yes, it’s going to burst.

It’s also got way more in common with the Epstein scandal than you really want to know.

A post by Zarah Sultana of 'Your Party', that uses a generated image with the words 'Your Party, County Durham Launch', surrounded by nine simple, flat images of images in silhouette with single colour backgrounds, presumably intended to represent Durham, four of which are a man with a weirdly long pick-axe, one is a building, two are gantries of some kind – for a coal mine? – and one is some kind of floating lamp. I will expand on this in the thread.

Okay, I can't let this one go. I live in Ireland, not the UK, but the use of this image by a supposedly socialist party is so stupid and offensive, I'm going to get stuck in.

Let me explain to you why any experienced illustrator/designer could have stopped you making so many miserable mistakes. 1/

YouTube video by Charalanahzard I probably shouldn't post this

Here’s my breakdown of EA’s pending sale… to Saudi Arabia… and why this is much, much bigger than video games. I’m late to this from a ‘news’ perspective obviously, but it’s because I worked on this video for about a month.

The BBC Scandal Explained: Trump, Farage & the War on Truth

Foreigners declare war on Britain’s institutions and the flagshaggers help them. Obvs. This isn’t about “left wing bias” it’s the right controlling the media.

I have the receipts to prove it👇🏼

This is a deep dive.

4 frame comic. a street reporter approaches a man wearing a big hoodie, asking : sir! how much do you think we should hold feminism accountable for the male loneliness epidemic? he replies : there is no meaningful difference between the rates of loneliness between men and women*. the reason we're always talking about men's is that they're making it everyone else's problem. A note under the frame adds : *in fact, several studies (graham & ong, 2024; cigna & morning consult, 2021) suggest that more women experience loneliness than men. In the 3rd frame, he says : according to research*, the primary reason that men isolate themselves is because they feel incapable of living up to rigid gendered expectations. the far-right exploits that vulnerability to radicalize young men. another note under the frame adds a source : *the state of american men 2025, equimundo: center for masculinities and social justice. in the last frame, he makes a peace sign with his fingers and says : if anything, feminism is the solution to men's loneli- ness. let's deconstruct the gender norms that hurt every- one, before these techno- fascists divide us even more.

Accountability

How the government captured the BBC A right-wing cabal, largely unaccountable, is waging war on the principles that made our public broadcaster great. It must not succeed

Nearly two years ago, I wrote about the extraordinary influence of former Tory spin doctor Sir Robbie Gibb on the BBC. It's still a helpful backgrounder for what's going on now. New readers start here: www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/...

Normalize having a book on your bookshelf that, when pulled, opens the door to a secret room.

We only rate dogs. This is a family of Suburban Gold Fairies. It's rare for them to travel together like this. Very magical but please only send dogs. Thank you... 13/10 for all (TT: hdbrosriley)

Every time someone’s like “put that in the louvre,” my head now goes “and then steal it from the louvre, the security password is louvre”

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

The truth about impartiality at the BBC And the hysteria of the current "crisis"

The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think.

New piece from me.
