The entire thing felt orchestrated. Never seen so much high-profile media coverage on an academic’s life and career. Particularly surprising was this level of front-page coverage about a person who was not a public figure.
There's a lot in here - please read Whilst I was shocked and angered by the announcement that Jason Arday had died the real story here is how a group of people funded mostly by Thiel have infiltrated a top UK university with the explicit aim of preaching (sic) an agenda of division and hate

🔴 There Will Be Another Jason Arday "There will be another Jason Arday. We know this. Because the media knows this. The press isn't free if it lacks the impunity to do what it likes. It's how power protects itself. By declaring it has none" Editorial by Editor in Chief @hardeepmatharu.bsky.social:

Read our story from July 9 about how an MSG database tracked and categorized hundreds of celebs, famous Knicks superfans, and even some of Taylor Swift’s wedding guests. Labels included “LGBTQIA,” “DO NOT HOST,” and low to high “risk.”

”Analysis of X feed shows how keen world’s richest person was to air his views and ‘interfere’ in British politics“. I still don’t get his obsession with the UK. What’s in it for him? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
”Let’s enjoy Cape Verde because it was a beautiful story”. What an amazing, dramatic and emotional match that was. Kinda makes me think there should be a accolade for the best match of the WC not just for winners. I mean this was v. special. Can’t wait to see the team’s and players’ progress. ⚽️ 🏆 💕

An new UN investigation warns that AI's water use in 2030 will match the needs of 1.3 billion people. “We have to think about that very long supply chain that starts with the extraction of critical minerals in the poor areas of the world,” says @kavehmadani.bsky.social, one of the report's authors.

The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami devastated communities where coastal mangrove forests had been removed. In contrast, islands still covered were well protected. Wild, natural ecosystems are not a luxury. They are the very bedrock of a habitable planet. share.google/5oQXv9s3WwLI...

Interesting summary of Starmer’s tenure which can be read for free. I do wonder if we’ll start to see a few more balanced pieces after Starmer’s gone. Some MSM outlets will put down their weapons and pretend his vilification was nothing to do with them.
You will miss Keir Starmer when he’s gone. Piece from me on how he was the perfect scapegoat for a dishonest nation spectator.com/article/youl...

Very impressed with YYZ and the Air Canada crew for getting us home and landing us safely in Toronto at 4pm today in this crazy weather. The UP Express train took us downtown, and the TTC subway very nearly got me home but had to stop just 3 blocks from home. #yyz #ttc #upexpress #toronto #aircanada
