A reminder to Sunak that 'Ham' is the name of an area of London.

Asexuality isn't protected under the Equality Act. We aren't protected by the conversion therapy ban, but we're 10% more likely to experience it. We're still pathologised. That's what @stonewalluk & I are working to change. Find out more in our report:

@SCSupertram about 2015 this evening encountered a tram crossing from Fitzalan Sq to Castle Square while road lights coming out of Haymarket onto High St were green. Taxi driver was very surprised! Is it supposed to do that? Or signal error / SPAD?

@ErinInTheMorn Ooh I love the colour!

@SheffieldStar Living near a school, the standard of driving and parking is atrocious.

A) be more considerate, motorists
B) go these kids
C) most journeys to school should not be in a car and we need policy to both enable and enforce this

[merle ♂️ @fujodemon]

The right-wing debate strategy of demanding minorities 'condemn' stuff is just a silencing tactic. It's designed to stop you from talking.

And it works by stun-locking you in a never-ending cycle of 'condemnation' until you get bored or refuse, at which point they smear you.

Voters have spoken LOUDLY. 🥳 🔈

The gutsy girl grounded the guy with a gut. 32 Chunk, proved his prominent posterior was worthy of a whopping win. But in the end, Chunk got Grazered.

Let’s crown our Queen that’s thicker than a bowl of oatmeal, 128 Grazer! 👑

[Jacob Corteen @JSCorteen]

@virginmedia @TerryPike84 Wow Terry, this is awful corporate practice by Virgin and to just respond with "well suck it up" (paraphrased) to their failure to send timely communication is incredibly rude...

[Jacob Corteen @JSCorteen]

@BBCSheffield Awful practice in service of an awful industry.

[Katmai National Park @KatmaiNPS]

4 bears entered, 2 bears left. Only finalists remain! 💪

435 Holly, the monstrous marshmallow, was burnt by the behemothic 128 Grazer. While 128 turned up the heat, 32 smothered 901’s flame with his colossal caboose.

Which bear will reign supreme? 👑 Tune in tomorrow!

@SheffieldStar Moor burning is an awful practice in aid of an awful industry :(

[Jacob Corteen @JSCorteen]

You can probably see my house in this.

Moor burning to enable aristocrats to engage in blood sport is not OK.

[Jacob Corteen @JSCorteen]

@JeremyN80616364 Probably because they appear to be asinine.

[Jacob Corteen @JSCorteen]

@JeremyN80616364 @CeliaRichards0n Wow. You get all sorts...

Maybe engage in some self reflection.

[Jacob Corteen @JSCorteen]

@JeremyN80616364 @CeliaRichards0n This is one of those comments where I assume it has to be satire, but these days you just can't tell...

[Jacob Corteen @JSCorteen]

@oldenoughtosay Urgh I detest this behaviour. The only acceptable answer to "please put put your dog on a leash" in public is "yes, immediately".
