Had to dig up a hard copy for this one.

UN inquiry finds Israel deliberately targeted Gaza children, amounting to genocide

Commission of inquiry says the killing of at least 20,179 children since October 2023 was part of a strategy to destroy the Palestinian group in Gaza. Israel rejected the report as a libellous sham.

for millennials this is like the seventh fundamental betrayal Labour has landed on us and the first we're meant to help their bigotry on: fuck them. fuck this shit party that thinks it can get away with anything that people WHO DID NOT VOTE FOR THEM want. fuck them. I am fucking incandescant

I’ve just paid £2.30 for a pint of lime and soda (midlands, free house). It’s been a few years since I last bought one but I swear they used to be about 50p‽ is this the going rate now‽

Week away in Cornwall and used the powerchair in anger for the first time - really impressed with it, and very very glad I took the leap and accepted I needed it. Definitely need to invest in a cup holder of some sort - although unlike manual chairs, there aren’t many places to attach it to!

The horrid horrid PinkNews, after going reporter-free, publishes Wes Streeting’s opinion, which denies the existence of trans kids in the first line.

A week or so ago I asked what the point of following Pink News on here was. Nobody had an answer. Today, I'm asking again...

Wes Streeting writes for PinkNews. Not a belated april fool.

Um, @raccoingame.bsky.social I don’t know what I did… but I seem to have a perpetual loop of infinite coins… It’s been going over an hour already…

I need every single male artist that follows me to read this. It's not very long. You need to bear witness to this shit. You have to see it with your own eyes because you never will in your everyday life. I'm serious, read it all please

If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.

Trip to the garden centre with H. We went to my favourite one with the cats. Was not disappointed. The grey fluffy one came and sat on my lap for a while demanding head strokes

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Iran: it is essential to remember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law

Who’s ready for labours U-Turn of the year?

Up early in a Saturday to drive H to a church hall to queue. For potatoes. Seed potatoes. (For non brits, this is an annual affair in the UK - we’re given a ration of potatoes to last us the next 12 months and we have to register annually)

The figures here also show that 7% of all child suicides were trans children. That compares with trans children making up only 1% of the population. Trans kids are seven times as likely to die by suicide as cis kids and all this government can do is make things worse and cover these figures up.

Well, the @coffeestain.com #Satisfactory Kickstarter/merch finally arrived! Built in the space of about 1.5 hours (the instructions were okay… but a little unclear at times. RC works great - and it drives/handles just like the game - utterly terribly!

With the Magic Mouse being the exception, every single mouse I’ve ever owned has needed to be replaced because the scroll wheel click function stops working eventually, as I open ALL links with a middle click to open the link in a new tab. Is this a very niche only me problem?

This is going to be an enormous mental health crisis in a decades time. (More so than now)

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

Is anyone else finding it terrifying how normal it is now to scroll from a cat video to graphic footage of war crimes, onto an advert for hello fresh, then onto graphic footage from multiple angles of someone being executed by ICE, and then onto a video tutorial for making pasta.

I just discovered that this bird - the Gloster Canary - exits and it has changed me.

Retrofitted an old IKEA FOXA screwdriver with a USB C port (rather than a barrel jack). Really like these tiny PD trigger boards - great for upgrading barrel jacks as they’re smaller than the old connector, and good for replacing micro USB ports too. Obviously gets an @ifixit.com sticker now!

Just reflexively oppositional, YOU NEGOTIATED THIS DEAL! If you'd not held the election when you did, Rishi would have signed it. YOU WERE IN THE FOREIGN OFFICE AT THE TIME.

This is (1) disgraceful at a moment of national danger, (2) laughably unserious and (3) deeply unwise when the President is obviously becoming incapacitated and the most unpopular person in the whole UK. Utterly disqualifying.
