It's less than a week since the wife of the king was pictured with the country's most vicious transphobe so no. It's business as usual as far as I can see.

Every year for Pride, I repost Hue. I made him to send love and comfort to those who feel Pride isn’t for them because they aren’t out. You matter, you are valid, and it’s ok if you aren’t ready yet. Coming out is not a requirement for being part of this community. Happy Pride 🌈

Re-upping this helpful infographic from @charlesapple.bsky.social on water safety and what drowning really looks like. (It doesn't look like the splashing and crying out seen in TV/film.)

ffs @zackpolanski.bsky.social. Potentially the most consequential political event of the year and the Greens drop the ball. Sort your vetting out so that we can all have confidence in your candidates.

Forget the South China Sea, the real geopolitical battle of 2026 is being fought in the upholstery department of the Great Hall of the People. 🇨🇳 The passive-aggressive masterclass of the Chinese protocol team giving 6'3" Donald Trump a low-density, extra-squishy sofa so he sinks

The enduring appeal of the Star Wars series is because I saw the first movie when I was 10 years old (in the cinema that appears in Heartstopper). I don't care about your opinions. For me it is just baked in.

I thought smoking was cool. 45 years ago.

Episode 1 of Map Men was uploaded TEN years ago today!!! 🎂 🎉 Why not celebrate by watching all 37* episodes in a row right now? youtube.com/playlist?lis... (*33 if you don’t count the ones that don’t count)

The Carry On actor Peter Butterworth was turned down for a role in the classic war film The Wooden Horse even though he was an actual PoW in the actual camp where the events actually took place. He was told he didn't look the part.

Zhang Shan won the gold medal for the mixed skeet shooting event in the 1992 Olympics. The International Shooting Union *immediately* banned women from competing against men.

The funny thing about Hannah Spencer is that she’s literally exactly what everyone pretends they want from politicians in political media: a working class woman who has broken into politics from a normal job, speaking her mind from genuine lived experience. And they fucking hate her for it lol

It's a shame that "defend your culture" always means "hate strangers different from you" and never "enact anti-pollution laws so that you can go fishing with your grandkids the way your grandpa taught you."

The "genius" of Farage is that he can convince about a third of the population that the ruination of Britain is in their own best interests.

Did she take a walk on the wlld side? Sorry.

Sticking my neck out here but AI for *coding* is actually quite good now (as long as you remember who's in charge). Coding was never about hand typing reams of code (well it was but only through necessity). Over 40 years tech has changed again and again. This is just the latest iteration of that.

Stay in the know, but remember to practice self care and touch grass and seek laughter and whatnot.

This is why we can't have nice things #100034...

The problem that every attempt at athletic sex testing runs into is that it's trying to force a strict binary onto something that is inherently a multidimensional continuum with overlapping distributions. www.coyotemedia.org/the-olympics...

maybe my favorite thing on the internet: neal.fun/deep-sea/

I would tag my MP but he, Peter Kyle, isn't even on this platform. He's sticking with the trans-hating Nazi. He's a gay man representing a Brighton constituency who's sold his soul and his local constituency for a cabinet position that he's not even any good at.

There is no ethical Harry Potter consumption. If you MUST do it, have the good sense to feel bad about it and keep it your shameful secret, knowing you are actively hurting people.

We were crucified nearby… how often can you say that?

🧵 These stories really are coming thick and fast at the moment🙄 Guess what? The Canadian school is NOT 'banning food at lunchtime' during Ramadan🤦‍♀️ Obviously... And if you BELIEVED it to be true, then you need to ask why you would choose to believe such an obviously ludicrous headline? 1/20

I can only dream of having this kind of courage and integrity.

Alice Ida Antoinette Guy-Blaché (1873 – 1968) was a French pioneer film director. She was one of the first filmmakers to make a narrative fiction film, as well as the first woman to direct a film. From 1896 to 1906, she was probably the only female filmmaker in the world. #CelebratingWomen

Just Kemi advancing the Cybermen agenda

😂😂😂 this is excellent

All the people saying "lol what's a banknote?" have obviously never tried to buy firewood - or anything really - off of a farmer in rural France. It's strictly "le liquide" only.

Epic thread from Emma debunking a right wing fever dream...

A recent Atlantic column claimed society is allegedly "transing" effeminate boys. For my @xtramagazine.com column this month, I wrote a rebuttal using my own experience as a young, closeted trans girl. xtramagazine.com/power/identi...

💯 same

Time to remake Wargames I think. I suspect the ending would be a bit different this time though.

I don't understand why @labouruk.bsky.social is so desperate to alienate me. It was so easy, just keep behaving like decent human beings and I would always vote for them but instead they are determined to be just awful, hateful people. I'll never vote for them again.

you know I would say her matching pink phone case really makes this, gives Goodwin a huge "sad loser man at the end of Legally Blonde" vibe

Nice to wake up to some good news for a change

question aside her explanation shows a much healthier perspective on than people pretend high performers have to have and everyone would be better off with it

@mrjamesob.bsky.social is wondering why London has a higher rate of phone thefts. It might simply be that in the UK phones are bought on contract so thefts are reported for replacement but elsewhere people buy phones outright so don't always bother.

Is there anything worse than men claiming to be able to fix women? 100% of the world’s problems would fixed if men forgot about women and just focused on their train sets instead.

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

They're even discussing who will replace Starmer on the BFMTV breakfast show here in France (they have Rayner, Streeting, Miliband in the running). He must be toast.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. "oops"
