Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

Doodles for Hong Kong 🇭🇰

In response to the tragic Tai Po fire, I'm doing charity commissions. Anyone who puts over £25/250HKD into "Feeding Hong Kong" or Hong Kong SPCA can request a coloured doodle of any prehistoric animal 🙏

Well, it's after American Thanksgiving. You know what that means:

A FULL BARRAGE OF HALLOWEEN ADS! Christmas won't expect an ANTICHRONAL ATTACK on its TIMEWARD FLANK.

Here's a thread from Twitter shared with Sophia's permission in which she finally is able to talk about Graham using the police as HIS personal goon squad and getting Sophia arrested at home by EIGHT armed police officers, somewhat putting the standard Heathrow armed cops in perspective.

The evolution of the BBC article on Graham Linehan's conviction and how it describes the trans victim of this crime is beyond atrocious. They actively went out of their way to dehumanize the victim here. They removed all pronouns for her and gendered honorifics such as "Ms."

puberty blockers for trans kids with no prospect of moving to HRT after is like dangling somebody over an active volcano and going "what don't you feel better already? you're not even falling yet!"

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

This is just alarmism. Buildings naturally fluctuate in temperate over time and it's really nothing to worry about.

This #mysterious message has left the field of #BadArchaeology stumped.

What could this mean? Perhaps it is a warning to all who would dare walk this road, that beyond this point, women lay in wait, possibly to eat careless wanderers like how Croatoan was written?

would "hostage taking" include the position "hey support this guy who doesn't support your right to live, or else fuck off, because we'd rather try to win it without you than try to win it without anti-trans bigots who despise you?"

because you're right, I don't think people respond well to that
I just think people generally don’t respond well to hostage taking in politics, and will be more inclined to just shrug and say “ehh we will probably win without you, so fuck off” than to bend the knee. So all this kind of tactic achieves is somewhat increasing the odds we get a president Vance.

A racist changing is not dependent upon having contact with the people they have harmed. It is not dependent on forgiveness from the people they have harmed. It is not on black people to put themselves in harm's way so a bigot can practice being a decent human being. To expect that is highly unfair.

A cycling influencer nominated for a list of top 100 women cyclists said she has declined the honour due to the decision not to include trans women.

Claire Sharpe, a cycling coach from Bristol, said: "If they don't want to ride with all women, then it's not the kind of ride I want to be part of" 👏🏻

It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend

"If you don't let me punch you in the face, the other guy will kick you in the nuts" doesn't seem like a sustainable political message.

I for one was massively disappointed to learn that the 'Toronto subway deer' just refers to an extinct deer (Torontoceros hypogaeus), a partial skull of which was discovered during excavation for the Toronto subway.

I was hoping it would be some kind of uncannily impossible cryptid.
