Universities should be at the forefront of at least slowing down the tidal wave of AI tech that is overwhelming every social system we require to survive. Instead, gov’ts, industries, & uni admins charge us to prepare students for the AI workplace. Wake me up from this nightmare.

White supremacy is more responsible than anything for what happened to Jason Arday. Nothing he did deserved that from the British media, higher ed apparatus, and political punditry. The US really was born from the UK in so many ways.

Our new trans GP self-advocacy guide is live! www.scottishtrans.org/gp-self-advo... The guide covers some general self-advocacy advice, as well as advice for issues related to trans healthcare, trans admin, and poor treatment and complaints.

This really is quite something. In the 15 years @carbonbrief.org have tracked UK media, 2025 was first ever year where more newspaper editorials opposed #climate action than supported it. Meanwhile, the *actual* climate crisis deepens by the month. Go figure.

Land should benefit our communities, nature and environment, not just private profit. Scottish Greens will limit how much land can be bought by any individual or company unless it provably contributes to the common good. #VoteScottishGreens

A politician with the guts to say it: "No American child from the blue collar or the middle class should have to die fighting in Iran. Let the Epstein class fight the Epstein War." - Premier Wab Kinew at the NDP national convention, Winnipeg.

Just read an article from a white Western scholar who contested the findings of an article researched and written by an Indigenous colleague and myself, advancing a very damaging gov’t narrative that this particular Indigenous identity does not exists - but they used ‘local research assistants’ 🙄

One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office. Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

This America always existed. These guys were everywhere during Standing Rock, and that was under Obama

A close friend who lives in Minneapolis took this photo. This is America now. Armed gangs of masked terrorists with the world's most advanced surveillance machine, randomly abducting and brutalizing whoever they want.

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars. ictnews.org/news/north-c...

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

The talk of nuclear reactors and permanent settlements on the Moon is sheer patriarchal, colonial hubris. I don’t even know where to start but technocracy and autocracy are clearly merging their paths.

Darren Beattie, fired from the Trump White House in 2018 after it was revealed he attended a white supremacist conference, has just been appointed acting president of the U.S. Institute of Peace, according to the State Department.

Happy 4th fellow Americans, some reminders today: -Not all came to America voluntarily (see slavery, forced servitude) -Not all want/ed to be part of America (see Indigenous Nations, Treat of Guadalupe) -Not all want/ed America to be the Land of the Free (see white supremacy, the current President)

I can already hear the meltdowns that the world is becoming too sensitive or too woke. Sorry but an island that imports everything shouldn’t be one of the largest economies in the world. A long overdue reckoning with the past was bound to happen. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Inquiry finds British committed genocide on Indigenous Australians

It is the country's first formal "truth-telling" inquiry that ran for four years from 2021.

In light of FM Swinney’s apology (and those of other parties) for the Tinker Experiments, just a reminder that we put in 21 recommendations in our report that all stakeholders should put into action. Apologies point out what’s wrong, actions make things right (with survivors/victims at the helm)

The Church of Scotland has apologized for their role in the Tinker Experiments ‘On behalf of the Church of Scotland we offer a heartfelt and genuine apology for these historic wrongs highlighted in the report and carried out in the name of the Church.’ www.churchofscotland.org.uk/news-and-eve...

Honoured and grateful to have been part of this work of truth-telling around the ‘Tinker Experiments’. Credit must go to Gypsy/Traveller advocates and those survivors/victims who had to endure these injustices in the dark for far too long. An apology is only the start. www.abdn.ac.uk/news/24494/a

🚨BREAKING: After years of campaigning, the Gypsy Traveller community has finally received an apology for the cruel Tinker Experiments. This is not the end of righting wrongs. The @scottishgreens.org are proud to have raised this in with Parliament, most recently last month.
