When someone questions God, ask them to substitute the word “God” with “Allah” or “Buddha”. Then ask; is it acceptable for them to question “Allah” or “Buddha” in the same manner? 🤨 #JustSaying #FaithFreedoms #ProtectPeoplesFaiths

i'm really proud of this policy. it's not perfect, but i think it's close to the best that was possible given all the constraints. i'm excited that this will make things easier for mods and reviewers, and hopeful that it will spark change in Rust's governance. blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/...

RIP Sam Neill, a really good guy who cared about nature and suffered a lot of stress defending it, even when severely ill.
Ms Hooper@mshooper.bsky.social · 4mo agoSam Neill says New Zealand goldmine supporters have threatened him with violence #nzpol
Overall, through his quiet life, quirky online bits, wide-ranging filmography, and his personal, casual workwear style of dress, Sam Neill presented a radical, classic-yet-modern version of masculinity that every single male-identifying person can strive to. popheist.com/sam-neill-re...

The BBC cancelling Winterwatch is such a shame, especially when we need to be connecting with nature more than ever. If we want people to protect our wildlife, we have to show them it! Add your name to ask the BBC to reconsider. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/do...
Tell the BBC: Save Winterwatch!
The UK is losing its wildlife, and shows like Winterwatch are vital for connecting us to nature. The BBC's decision to cancel it makes no sense. Let's ask them to rethink this! Add your name here:

Only someone with a heart of stone wouldn't laugh at the demise of Jenrick's political gambit... playing out here in real time
Farrukh@implausibleblog.bsky.social · last mo.Robert Jenrick has a meltdown on #C4News He refuses to accept that there are parliamentary rules that Nigel Farage may have broken And insists the only people who can judge Nigel Farage are the people of Clacton 😅 - Whatever you do, please don't share this humiliating clip
PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”
The main gripe from the Starmer critics is well he hasn't done this or that. They have an amazing ability to brush aside all the positives (see attached) because there's one or two things they don't like. How amazing it must be to be them living in a world where your every wish is fulfilled.
Private Eye points out that former Ukip leader Paul Nuttall is heading up candidate vetting for Reform ahead of the next general election. Readers might remember when items on his CV were revealed as false during the 2017 Stoke-on-Trent by-election." #IronyIsStillDead
It was inevitable, wasn't it🙄 Of course the Telegraph would run with something like this👇 So let's remove some of the rose-tinted spectacles and also look at some of that data comparing 1976 with modern heat waves Because the 1976 nostalgia porn is wearing a bit thin at this stage 🧵1/23
They both have a lot in common. They both 'deposed' the leader of the nation and then tried to take over. Burnham's is still in progress. Brutus failed and fell on his sword.
Such bs. Starmer does indeed have a decent set of policies; a lot of them have been put into place that will benefit the public (if Bicerin chooses to look!). He didn’t alienate his supporters. A large number of the public have been conned not to like him by a gutter press.
@philmoorhouse.bsky.social “From the US, we look at Starmer and can't understand why England hates him. All of the economic metrics are moving in the right direction,he is a good and honorable man,but England still hates him.America would give anything for a man of his caliber in politics.”
Following Sir Keir Starmer’s resignation announcement today, we’ve seen claims that he will be entitled to a £115,000-a-year “pension” as a former Prime Minister. This is misleading. Here’s what that figure actually refers to 👇

Claims that Sir Keir Starmer will be entitled to a £115,000-a-year “pension” for the rest of his life as a former PM are misleading.
