Saw a clip last night but watched the whole episode and he's bloody brilliant. Never seen a politician so down to Earth and relatable, cracking great off-the-cuff jokes and speaking in plain, honest, understandable terms, not a fog of PR. How long til the next election?!
Woah. Thanks for all the love!

Huge thanks to The Last Leg, Judi & Grace and all the production crew for making such a brilliant show.

I seem to remember Labour very recently making attack ads about how @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the Greens didn't care about the environment and that Labour are the REAL party of climate action.

Labour are an absolute disgrace on every conceivable level.

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!

His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.

It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform....

Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally.

It's time for Proportional Representation.

I think my boyfriend's dog is one of those psychic animals who can predict the future. Currently she won't go anywhere without a towel. Which makes me suspect we might shortly be in for a visit from the Vogons...

In huge positive news, the Australian government just ruled out handing the work of their country’s creatives to AI companies for free 🙌

They resisted the well-funded tech lobby & shut down proposals to upend copyright law.

Other governments should do the same!

My hot take is that even before we get into issues over AI usage, I don't think AI upscales look good. They often introduce more errors than they fix - see those awful Wallace & Gromit 4K Blu-rays - and give the whole thing a weird, oversharp sheen. It is just inventing detail that never existed.

My fatal flaw is always reading "dogpiled" as "dogpilled" and a part of my brain wondering what rightwing conspiracy I've missed

US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.

Block on sight.

Protect your digital space.

Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.

The detach quote function will come in very handy here…

Happy to confirm my father is also yet to grow out of Doctor Who - it's not me!
Dad used to moan about how I hadn't grown out of Doctor Who. I now get paid to write about it, so when I visit him I wear Dalek socks.
