Caution: Although every care has been taken to remove bones, some may remain. Also - say no to AI & yes to Trans rights.

The government’s transphobic code of practice is now up and running. But we’re not going to stand still and take it, we're supporting a legal challenge led by a trans person and a trans inclusive organisation. But we can only do this together. Will you join us?👇 goodlaw.social/ldco

Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.

Only just found out about this For the record, you don't get multiple genetic markers and one of the most effective medications known to science with 'social constructs' Channel 4, this is, in scientific parlance, an absolute fu*king disgrace that will genuinely endanger lives #c4 #ADHD

New Channel 4 documentary, The Great ADHD Myth?, seeks to determine whether ADHD is a genuine neurodevelopmental disorder, or a social construct

I've just seen the cover to the Complete Trumptonshire blu-ray, and now I need you all to see it too, so there can be an outbreak of delighted cooing and "aw" noises all across Bluesky. It's done my heart the power of good, it really has.

Cover to "The Complete Trumptonshire" blu-ray set, a rather lovely Sergeant Pepper pastiche featuring characters from across all three series.

While I have your attention, due to the portrait of Turing on them, I have been trying to nickname £50 notes 'an Alan' for a while now. Please help me to get this to catch on. 'They're £20 each,' you could say, 'or, special offer, I can do you three for an Alan.' Thanks in advance.

Can't be the first to say this, but (and yay UEFA - brilliant) this works equally well if you swap out "football" for maybe "water" or "a stable climate". Look at me being the revolutionary socialist. "No one has the moral authority to sell what they merely hold in trust for the next generation."

The moment external investors acquire ownership interests in
FIFA competitions, football changes forever. Commercial return becomes a permanent obligation. Investor expectations become a daily pressure. From that moment onwards, every decision on the international calendar, every decision on competition formats and every decision shaping the future of football is no longer driven by what best serves the game, but by what best serves shareholders.
This model has no place in world football. Football's future cannot be dictated by the expectations of those whose first duty is to maximise financial return. Nor can the interests of national associations, leagues, clubs, players and supporters become subordinate to investor returns. Football cannot mortgage its future for financial gain.
Europe's position is clear. We will never lend this model our legitimacy. No one has the moral authority to sell what they merely hold in trust for the next generation.

This has really pissed me off, if you're in the area and can afford it go and give the cafe owner some money to help fund the kids meals. And if he refuses buy yourself a nice coffee and tip him as much as you can. Fuck Reform taking food from kids in need. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Currently reorganising my paperbacks and came across my TNT collection - aka the wildest, most ridiculous and over-the-top men’s adventure series ever published. Let the synopses give you a taste of what’s inside:

A series of seven paperback books, all with black covers, all with varying illustration of the same man’s face - holding a gun, a knife, a hook etc. He is extraordinarily chiselled and rugged. Anthony Nicholas Twin vs. The Black Widow
Six of the richest men in the world. All dead. All had been married to the same mysterious woman. A woman so elegant, so deeply sensual, no man could resist her. No man, except of course, TNT.
But when the deadly seductress traps TNT on a mirrored bed suspended from a helicopter high over the Empire State Building-the man with the uncanny sexual prowess has to make a crucial decision-become the black widow's new mate or end up as a grease spot on Fifth Avenue...
TNT
It begins beyond anything you have ever experienced before. Meet Anthony Nicholas Twin.
He goes all the way.
And then keeps going.
In the wilds of Paraguay is hidden a legendary city of sex and gold. For centuries its citizens have lived in peace. But now the fanatical Torquemada is stealing their treasure to finance his scheme to become the worldwide Napoleon of Terrorism.
TNT's choice: infiltrate Torquemada's fascist killer corps by surviving their incredible suicide training. Or watch the only human he loves, sweet innocent October, subjected to the most hideous torture ever dreamed of by animal or man!
TNT
It begins beyond anything you have ever experienced before.Anthony Nicholas Twin in a battle for blood
Eleven people. All with the same rare blood type. All dead. Butchered and bled by international terrorists.
One woman. The only possible donor left in the world. Frozen-her body rests in a secret cryogenic laboratory in Hungary.
TNT is about to enter a living, breathing hell of staggering proportions. A Kingdom of Death-where blood runs cold and hearts cease to beat at the push of a button. It is a nightmare
world that leaves TNT only two choices-kill with razor-edged precision...or end up as a human popsicle...
TNT
It begins beyond anything you have ever experienced before.

Heatwaves are becoming more common, wildfires are spreading and more than half of England is in drought. But STILL the government isn’t doing enough, and young people are paying the price. We need to force Andy Burnham to do better. Get involved 👇 🌍 goodlaw.social/h5ik
