Electronic Frontier Foundation@eff.org · 3h agoYoung people deserve better than a policy built on panic. We're happy to see France's top court acknowledge this and strike down the country's legislation banning social media for under-15s. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
Important thing to recognise is that these people are capitulating in advance. America has a secret police force abducting people off the street. Getting rid of that is a 100% necessary prerequisite for literally anything else, but they're too scared to ask a democrat for that in case they say no.
B. A. Friedman@bafriedman.bsky.social · 9h agoThis site will expect the next Dem president to deliver what FDR delivered in four terms but in the first 100 days and if they don’t they’ll call them a fascist.
But if they don't pre-order, they'll have to wait a few extra hours before they can download it and that would be horrific for them.
Anon Opin@anonopin.bsky.social · 7h agoPre-ordering GTA 6 digitally five months out is pointless. There's no stock shortage, no limited copies, and no scarcity whatsoever. You're just giving Rockstar an interest-free loan.
astonishing that the guy who had the easiest route to Labour leader/PM ever due to everyone loathing Keir Starmer, on the basis of him not being Keir Starmer, and who got a nice polling bump for not being Keir Starmer... has in fact immediately pivoted to behaving like Keir Starmer
Financial Times@financialtimes.com · 2d agoAndy Burnham has retreated from his longstanding calls for the so-called Elgin Marbles to return to Greece, now saying that the future of the 2,500-year-old carvings is a matter for the British Museum to resolve.

We need to reclaim 'working class' from the people who use it to mean racist fucknuts.
Elizabeth Taylor@elizabethtaylor47.bsky.social · 2d agoI’m being so serious, shut the fuck up
Do the wankers in British media and politics have a special wheel of fortune to pick this month's fundamental human characteristic they're going to discriminate against? (Obviously they don't *stop* abusing their previous victims either.)
The Guardian@theguardian.com · 2d agoADHD and autism costs in England ‘running out of control’, NHS leaders warn
You can now add to the list: • Will not cap political donations • Will not return the Elgin marbles • Will not sanction a referendum on Irish reunification
A.V. Deggar@avdeggar.bsky.social · 3mo agoSo, future PM Andy Burnham: • Won't rejoin the EU • Won't break Tory fiscal rules • Won't call Gaza a genocide • Accepts the far-right framing of immigration • Will maintain the pensions triple-lock • Will cut benefits to increase military spending He's a more human Starmer with hair dye.
Hey guys, I'm starting to think Amdy Burnham isn't the breath of fresh air we* all thought. (*not me because I'm not a mark)

Look. I love Marvel comics and most of the MCU. I love Dr Doom. I really liked Endgame. But you can go fuck yourself every which way if you think I'm doing any homework in order to watch Avengers: Doomsday.
So London turns you into a cunt, hated by your own parents?
Anon Opin@anonopin.bsky.social · 2d agoEveryone should live in London once, even if it's just for a decade or so. It builds character, just like boarding school.
Starmer was like: Things can only get worse, here’s a clampdown, here’s a ban, I’m completely uncomfortable doing this job
Alternative headline: “Sainsbury’s to get free labour after David Sainsbury gave Andy Burnham £165,000 for his leadership campaign”
The British actors in Ted Lasso pronouncing 'cliques' as 'clicks' just so Americans don't get so confused their brains leak is a sad state of affairs.
The Fairy liquid mascot is a baby, not a fairy, and it annoys me so fucking much.
No company or person should be able to pay $16bn and still have a business remaining.
The best tribute to Dolly Parton is that she regularly and repeatedly refused to have anything to do with Piers Morgan
Child Labour for Lord Sainsbury after he's made 3000 people with actual paid jobs redundant. I'm glad they replaced Kier Starmer with Kier Starmer, Just For Men Edition
Bela Lugosi's Dad 🏳️⚧️ 🇵🇸@belalugosisdad.bsky.social · 4d agoAll 10,000 of these "placements" are with Sainsbury's by the way and are for children aged 14+. It's just free child labour.
But what does Graham Linehan think?
@cancelled-by-elon.bsky.social · 4d agoHow the BBC is reporting Dolly Parton's passing.
Let me get this straight. Sometimes a famous person dies and everyone is nice about it? Merely because of their deeds during life?
The heroic OCP sends Robocop in to smash the villainous small businesses, trade unions and privacy advocates. "I'd buy that for a dollar plus upgrade to remove ads!"
Empire Magazine@empiremagazine.bsky.social · 4d agoDan Stevens is RoboCop! The Guest and Downton Abbey actor will play Alex Murphy and his cyborg alter ego in Prime Video’s RoboCop series, based on the MGM movie franchise. Read more: www.empireonline.com/tv/news/dan-...
The second Michael Jackson biopic should focus on him crushing on Bart Simpson, writing Do the Bartman, and tragically learning that Bart Simpson isn’t real and also is voiced by a woman.
"Did I do a bad thing as a dad today? Did I mess that up?" Yes. Yes you did. This is the bad thing.
Hypervisible @hypervisible.blacksky.app · 5d agoThat tracking is bad too? 🤷🏿♂️
That story that a humanoid robot at the Droid Olympics covered 100m faster than Usain Bolt would also be true if they’d fired it from a fucking cannon.
If your army of "pro-academic freedom" warriors only ever mobilises to defend the freedom of racists to be racist then it's a pro-racism army. The purpose of a system is what it does.
ok great now do the racialised civil war stuff
The Guardian@theguardian.com · 6d agoMinister tells social media firms to remove posts that ‘celebrate’ dangerous driving after A66 crash
What the fuck do people think the theoretical basis of the Third Fucking Reich was
Patrick Sturgis@patricksturg.bsky.social · 7d agoHow about refuting them on theoretical and empirical grounds? That is kind of how science works. It doesn’t work by calling people names, refusing to engage with their claims and attempting to get them fired.
