Andy Burnham is going to keep Reeves’ fiscal rules, he supports Mahmood’s strict immigration reforms, he won’t deliver proportional representation, and his government will continue to erode trans rights.

Nothing will meaningfully change, just the optics. Starmer 2.0.

"luxurious" and its plastic chairs and tables with a UNICEF tarp held up by wooden sticks. You guys are going to hell actually.

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

“The Greens don’t understand the economy” — it’s remarkable how completely neoliberalism captured “common sense.” Inequality and wage suppression have gutted the British economy, and people still log on to defend poverty wages and elite wealth extraction as if this model “works”

Israel killed every single person in this photo in Lebanon.

Every. Single. One.

All journalists.

Targeted and assassinated intentionally.

For reporting the truth from the frontlines.

the ADHD urge to use parentheses in every sentence (because every thought comes with bonus thoughts (and those have bonus thoughts too))

at the age of ten i thought this was the hottest thing ever and you know what? i was absolutely right

[Brian 🍄 @Is_Not_Brian]

Any Americans who think Iran "hates America" should think about this. The IDF murdered a US citizen named Rachel Corrie with a bulldozer. The Israeli govt did nothing, Israelis have pancake parties to mock her death. The Iranians named a street after her. Who actually hates you?

If people going to Cuba on their own dime and delivering aid is “performative” then i wish a lot of you would get more performative right now.

If a filmmaker can't be bothered to respectfully answer a simple but important question about how their work relates to the reality of society outside the theatre they not only have no business making films with those themes, they don't deserve to be praised and awarded for them.

crazy how my advice for anyone who’s super online is to “go outside and touch grass” but then I meet an outdoorsy hiker type and im like “oh man, this weirdo needs a scroll sesh stat”

if they ban HRT healthcare for trans adults in the UK, they will conduct a genocide. This will increase suicide rates, it will make people worse off. This is purely genocidal.

ai can’t write good because it’s designed to write pleasantly average sentences with all the right words in the right order and imho good writing requires u to strategically deploy a word that is wrong and maybe even evil

[Salma Yaqoob @SalmaYaqoob]

Almost feel sorry for the haters who are trying to spin Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man is evidence of Islamist sectarianism 😂

In fact it’s evidence of genuine tolerance, rejection of superficial identity politics and ability to prioritise tackling common concerns of cost of living, protecting public services and rejecting war mongering. And the promotion of mutual respect and individual freedoms.

The coming together of people is terrifying for the ruling elites.

If I want to see anything out of this, it's people listening to the experiences of Black people with Tourette's. We do exist. We just get erased. Most of us can probably address this without downplaying the harm of this or increasing TS stigma.

I can’t lie as someone who has lost multiple people to drugs this turns my stomach. Fuck you Labour for weaponising their struggles and if I wasn’t already never voting for you again for a multitude of reasons this would do the job. Decrim & destigmatising can save lives.

So so often it's artists of colour who take the principled stand whilst their white counterparts wait in the shadows and let them take all the flack until it's expedient for their careers to join them.

“We stand shoulder to shoulder with each other, always. Because we are the great-great-great-grandchildren of the Mancunian cotton workers who refused to handle cotton that was picked by slaves. This stuff runs through our blood.”

@AyoCaesar The previous night Roxy asked Rachel and Stephen directly if they were 'keeping her in'. Might not have been *so* obvious to them she would've trusted them all the way, even tho she said to camera she was convinced?
