An extremely ‘80s-ass cover of The Order of Things by Michel Foucault

I have found it: the most ‘80s-Ass Book Cover of All Time

A letterpress poster in wood type reading: LUDDITES RESIST OBNOXIOUS TECHNOLOGY

Seems like every week I walk in to find new messaging from our local Luddite Society drying on the racks @skeuomorphpress.org

Join us at Elysium Swansea for another Gŵyl y gwrthsafiad at 11am-5pm 22nd November with an afterparty from 7pm!

We have stalls, workshops, and a kids space with lunch being served for a donation (no one turned away because of lack of funds)

poster has a cube with crossed out eyes and a sad face, reading: "Stop asking ChatGPT about DIY HRT, ask real people with real experience"

Most people know not to ask chatGPT for medical advice.

Make sure "most" is "all" in your circles, reach out to your friends and talk to them if they're being sucked in, community answers questions better than any chatbot.

a shoddily drawn person with a Trans Tech Tent banner behind them, and a laptop with trans flag and watermelon stickers. The text reads: 'Terrible sketch art is still better than AI "art"' and 'at Swansea Radical Fest, Sat. 22nd Nov, 11 to 5pm, Elysium Gallery'

In case it wasn't clear for the folks who know us in person, we will forever be this AI bubble's biggest haters.

And unless we've messed up the paperwork, see you all at @gwylygwrthsafiad.bsky.social!

Invitation graphic for taking part in a research project. There is a top bar which contains text that reads: "Study Participants Wanted!" The bar at the bottom reads "Genevieve Clifford https://mun-tonsi.net/phd" and has Swansea University's logo. In the centre the majority of the text is written, alongside it there is a graphic of a laptop with arms and legs holding a trans flag. It is smiling while looking ahead. To the left of this is the following text: Transgender People's Experiences of Digital Technology in Wales I'm looking for transgender adults living in Wales - Interview session - Approx. 1 hour - In-person, online, or on the phone - £20 gift card

Hey all! I'm recruiting participants for my PhD project looking at trans folks' experiences of digital technologies in Wales. This would be a chat (~1h) online, in-person, or over the phone. There's a £20 gift card for participation :)

transactional intercourse, a trans and intersex sex worker anthology.

What can you expect to read about in Transactional Intercourse, an anthology of trans and intersex sex workers' experiences?

Here's a thread of some of the topics to be covered, and you can pre-order a copy here to help it get made: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mxj...

"And let's not forget the generous wartime donations made by the people of Bengal in 1943, for which Churchill expressed his gratitude!"

Question. Are British liberals capable of acknowledging the humanity of brown people without sounding like the gutter-dwellings hounds of a dead empire?

i am so sorry for this (not sorry)

One of the central characteristics of the anti-trans movement is how it has lied in public and only slowly revealed the full extent of its nasty beliefs.

A few years ago, they would all claim to have trans friends they loved and respected.

An advert for a company called Magibook. The headline reads "Turn HARD books into EASY books with Magibook! Maximize your reading potential and avoid difficult language today." Underneath is two covers of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Above the first cover is the original version of the opening sentence (captioned "Turn Hard Books"), which reads "In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since." Above the second cover (captioned "into Easy Books") is a simplified version, which reads "When I was young, my dad told me something that I still think about."

THE BELL JAR

HARD ❌

It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York

EASY ✅

That summer was sizzling, and so were the Rosenbergs

What a beautiful morning to listen to Chumbawamba

Print of a mighty big hog with descriptive caption underneath it- but since it's Bluesky I feel the need to specify it's not *that* kind of hog, not like Alf hog or anything like that, but a traditional British hog, okay...?

r/lesbianfashionadvice u/britkitty03: how do I look more gay? yankeedoggiee: maybe a couple of piercings - or have you thought about getting a shag? britkitty03: luv what do you think i’ve been trying to do

pro tip: don't post your email address on linkedin unless you want about twenty emails within half an hour of dubious origin asking to participate in your study

i should really set expensive things (like rendering citations, figures, appendices, minitocs, etc.) to not be included in draft mode, because it's really annoying me with my thesis now

i would like a more powerful computer. not to play games, but to make my LaTeX compilation times faster lmao

Excited to reveal, I'm working on the mascot redesign for @xeiaso.net @techaro.lol's Anubis!

every student also has the following aliases:
[student no.] at {swansea; swan; abertawe} dot ac dot uk

as well as replacing the first part with [initials + dot +surname + student no.]

gee genevieve, how come your university lets you have 6 email addresses? (well, 9 if you include my staff account)

if i send emails external to the university, my name is what i set in my mail client (thunderbird / k-9 mail), but internally it formats my name as "CLIFFORD G. (2004599)" (surname + initials + student no.); today is not the first time someone has called me clifford based on this,,

We are finally ready to announce that EMF 2026 will happen on July 16-19, 2026, at Eastnor Castle Deer Park, Herefordshire.
