@denzeldome Hi there, sorry I don’t seem to be able to message you privately. I found your license yesterday and was planning to post it to the address on it if that works for you?

[Sapphire Mason-Brown @SaphMB]

@ThisIsJoFrank Woah!

[Prof. Pragya Agarwal @DrPragyaAgarwal]

I’ve said it many times before. And I’ll say it once again. Algorithms are biased because people are. Algorithms are trained on historic data patterns which incorporate systemic social inequalities. This is why algorithms used for A- level grades are biased & hugely problematic.

We are dedicating £5,000 to Black young people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds looking to appeal their A Level results and cannot do so due to financial implications. If you are/work with young people experiencing this, please contact us on [email protected].

@jpluscplusm I quite like Hermanos Coffee Roasters. I used to visit them in Old St station for the occasional morning cup but now just order the coffee from them

Trans allyship: a thread.

I've been asked to speak on panels about trans activism a lot the last few years, esp through pride month. One question I *always* get asked is: what can people do to be in solidarity/allyship. I've been asked it year on year on year:

[Sapphire Mason-Brown @SaphMB]

@MarteenFraser Agreed, it feels like a distraction, like the Little Britain and Flawlty Towers changes from a few weeks back. It think TV shows are just mirroring the changes of their peers right now
