Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.

Zuckerberg did one thing clever in his life, making a perving site he then pivoted into a site for your auntie to be racist on. Everything else has failed or he bought. He's not even proper evil, just an absolute dork with too much power.

@newsagents.bsky.social No one seems to be talking about the complete failure of the US’s checks and balances to control someone like Trump. This is going to cause them issues for decades, they have shown they cannot be a trusted partner anymore. Trump going will not fix that.

People used to wonder how did Hitler rise to power? Did people not realise what he was? How were they duped into believing an alternative universe of verifiable lies?
Wonder no more. We're watching it live.

5 babies - one not even 3 weeks old - die from cold in Gaza.
And Israel has created those conditions.
Too many in the International Community have helped Israel create those conditions by the continuing supply of arms even when it is obvious it is supporting genocide.
