I assumed they'd get away with it so I hadn't thought about what I'd like to happen to City seriously. Of their 8 league titles, we were second on 3 of them. I don't think I'd be comfortable with the retrospective awarding of titles as they weren't won on the pitch. Strip them, though #ManCity

When we talk about the costs that LLMs impose on society we should not forget the fact that nothing works anymore because everyone is so scared of getting their shit scraped. I can't even use google scholar from my university or starlink because they send too much traffic.

I think this is the single best analogy for summing up the neurodiverse experience in the workplace. I have no issue if you (neurotypical) enjoy steak, that's great. I'm happy to share a table (workplace) with people tucking into their steak. But the idea of me eating it utterly repulses me.

It's like we held a dinner party and forgot to ask if any of the guests were vegetarian, and now we're blaming them for not eating the juicy steaks we prepared. And it's like, no, it was on you to make sure this worked for everyone and you didn't do your job.

I absolutely hate the new (relatively speaking) design for the comments feature in word. I want the links and lines from the comment to the text sections to be so in my face I can't miss them. None of this having to click on a comment to see where it's relevant please

Complete betrayal of autistic and neurodiverse people in Scotland by the Swinney government. Neither he, nor Maree Todd should remain in office showing this level of disdain for Scots living with disabilities. Important piece from @jamesmcenaney.bsky.social. www.heraldscotland.com/news/2656212...

How the SNP developed then destroyed a new disabilities law

The party promised legislation to protect people's rights, but John Swinney has now abandoned the policy. What went wrong?

This should be the moment people finally realise that Farage has turned them into fascists. If you’re choosing this dangerous inhumanity over the rescue work of the RNLI, you’ve lost your minds to racism and hatred.

I know there was (myself included) a worry we kept signing wingers this summer, but looking at the way Iraola plays, we need all 4 for any given match cause that intensity multiple times a week needs a 60 minute cap a game surely #LFC

Macklemore says Ed Sheeran and his team decided to remove him from tour due to his comments in support of Palestine, after Kraft Group rallied stadium owners and gave Ed an ultimatum:

Had to get Riley's old vet records from his hospital stays as he may need some minor surgery soon, and this was how they finished the letter to his vet 🥹 "Once again, thank you for referring Riley, he is a very sweet cat. His case is very unusual and challenging but it is also very interesting!"

Ten years ago Tami, Roy, and I released a movie we made of antibiotic resistance evolving in real time. I thought maybe a couple thousand people tops would see it. I couldn't have imagined it would be seen millions of times, and be taught from middle school through the graduate level worldwide

A trans man in the UK has been banned in the workplace restrooms after he was forced to use the women's restrooms to comply with the new EHRC guidance. The women complained because he is visibly male and so they told him he can't use any bathroom.

A screenshot of a Reddit post from the r/LegalAdviceUK subreddit by user Dijstraanon, titled "FtM transgender facing two different issues at work? England."
The post text reads:
"Brother in law is trans FtM and presents fully as a man. He's now facing an impossible situation at work with his employer telling him that due to recent legislation he must use the toilet of his birth gender. BUT several female colleagues have raised a grievance about him using their gendered toilet.
His employer has told him that he cannot use the toilet while he is at work until they sort it out and cannot give him a timeframe to do so. They do [cut off] have disabled separate toilets.
In the mean time one of his female colleagues has accused him of sexual harassment because he was used their gendered toilet. His menstrual cycle meant he needed to use the toilet.
He's been with the employer for just over 5 years but only in this location for 18 months. The location is mainly male with just a handful of females, and his workshop only has male toilets.
I do not know how to support him and as he's not in a union there is no one to turn too right now."

I'm an ecologist and during a recent bat emergence survey, farted so magnificently that my bat identification equipment thought a Brown Long-Eared was foraging nearby. Submitted the recording regardless.

I'm going to do an "...but in defence of Kerkez" post again, but the way you see where he's looking he always looks like "is VVD actually there in the middle?" Saw it at the weekend when it felt like was he going to hold out the left or have to cover the centre too #LFC
