Ammattisomessa kiertää kuva, ilmeisesti tvittulasta lähtöisin, jonka tilaston mukaan suomalaiset on eniten maksavia onlyfansin käyttäjiä maailmassa, vieläpä hyvällä marginaalilla hopeasijalla oleviin kanadalaisiin.
En tajua tätä; kuka noita palveluja edes käyttää… ihmistyyppinä mulle täysi mysteeri.

Tody's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OnTheEdge, so it's back to the north coast of Jersey and a pair of fulmar nesting in a scrape burrow on the granite cliffs of the Île Agois.

🧪 #Palaeolithic scicomm : words & visuals matter in reporting.
Based on Google News results, all but three major news sites used some variation of "human" or "people" to report this. Those that didn't?
BBC & The Guardian used "man" (now altered)... and GB news used "cavemen" (I'd bet deliberately)

The boy the man. #farage #reform #ukpolitics
As this Guardian story from *1999* points out, Farage the man is as racist as Farage the youth - if only more of the Fourth Estate had chosen to pay attention back then…

There is a big assymetry between the media's ability to report on Nigel Farage's racist slurs as a teenager and the lack of interest in reporting Lowe's decisions about legitimising the overtly racist right.

From a patriotic Brit largely based in Thailand too. #reform #ukpolitics 🇬🇧
Nigel Farage used an LBC appearance to accuse the Bank of England of being “dinosaurs” for putting restrictions on the use of Stablecoins by crypto firms like Tether.

He did not declare that Reform had just received £9 million from one of its biggest investors

For nearly a decade, sceptics have dismissed allegations that Bannon’s Cambridge Analytica and Prigozhin’s troll farms successfully intervened in the Brexit referendum and Trump’s election in 2016 - now the argument is over

Interesting! #ukbudget #ukpolitics 🇬🇧
The (obvious in advance) limits of the government's strategy since it took office: a budget in which the majority of individual items poll well, yet people think it is the most unfair budget since YouGov started polling on this question.
% who say each 2025 Budget policy was the 'right thing to do' (1/3)

Increase gambling taxes: 82%
Freeze rail fares: 82%
Reducing energy bills by £150 a year by reducing green levies: 75%
Increasing minimum wage: 71%
Mansion tax: 67%
Decreasing biz rates for retail/hospitality/leisure: 64%

If you want to stop doom scrolling on an evening watch subtitled foreign TV programmes, often much better than a lot of the current English language dross being served up and reading the subs means you can't read your phone at the same time.

Mahmood is essentially saying to racists "It's completely understandable that my presence offends you. So I'll make sure there aren't too many more of me, then hopefully you'll feel a bit better" (but they won't of course).
