Look, I’ve got a lot of time for Zack Polanski and the Greens, but I do think scheduling an address to the Prime Minister today, on the day the trans segregation EHRC guidance comes into force, and not talking about it or speaking out against it is certainly a choice.

This morning I was joined by a firefighter, a medic, a former soldier and Chris Packham to call on the government to act now. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

I don’t know if I’m going overboard or not but I am VERY mad at the Greens and the Green leadership right now. What a massive failing to let the transphobes dominate the today and there be no pushback from the Greens whatsoever. No mention of the EHRC Code at all. What’s the point?

July 28th. #HelpFolksLive2026 thread. Something's *always* due & food is *always* needed. Things only get better with community action. *Now* is when folks need food, water, shelter, meds. *Now* is when we/the community needs to be there for each other. There's no one else. Just us.

Says the man whose party has been attacking LGBTQ people…. The far right have more in common with islamists than they’d care to admit. Meanwhile the VAST MAJORITY of Muslims who aren’t full of violent hate understand what it’s like to be targeted which is why there’s commonality with lgbtq ppl.

I woke up today feeling a bit hopeful that August would be good and less stressful... Couple hours later, the account I post mutual aid threads on was labeled as spam. I can't donate so I view all my effort & labour as a way to put back into the mutual aid community. Feeling absolutely shattered.

What are people's thoughts/experiences on #Njalla VPN? Wanting to move off of Mullvad for obvious reasons, but haven't heard a ton about their service outside of recently, and can't find much online either. And what I have heard has been mixed to say the least. (🔁 boosts appreciated)

xemu has 19x the amount of games they're starting with. 224x if you're willing to settle for "playable" over "perfect", which i'd expect microsoft's first party implementation to amount to tbh. plus you're not giving microsoft any money, which you shouldn't.

So after spending years posing as a political martyr for being "debanked", we now find out Nigel Farage was also reported by bankers to the National Crime Agency over money laundering concerns, after secretly taking millions of pounds from a crypto billionaire

The Green Party say they will not stand in the Clacton by-election either. Zack Polanski: "This is a desperate stunt from a desperate politician whose lifetime of grifting is finally catching up with him. Greens will play no part in his political circus"

Nigel Farage is a grifter. He always has been and he's continuing to grift. He knew he was heading towards a byelection anyway so has pulled the trigger early. The people Vs the establishment?! Reform are literally part of the establishment.

Since apparently this isn't making it beyond UK news yet, Rockstar petitioned a British court to section an 18 year old autistic kid under the mental health act for hacking their server and leaking a short GTA 6 clip a couple of years ago. No trial, no term of sentence, just locked up in hospital.

Lapsus$: GTA 6 hacker handed indefinite hospital order

Judge says hacker remains a high risk through his skills and motivation to carry out cyber-crime.

Locking up an autistic kid in a mental hospital for life for leaking a clip of a game is bullshit. Guess I'm never playing a Rockstar game again.
