Going to restart my vinyl video collection.
Never forget asylum seekers being unable to work was a Tony Blair policy.
People fleeing war and persecution are ready and able to contribute to our society.

The problem is... they're not allowed.

Rather than shipping them off to army barracks all over the country, it's time to let asylum seekers work.

I fucking hate Ticketmaster portals.
Arsenal's cup scheme registration process is a disaster. This is the 4th day where I have tried to login to sign up and it isn't working, the links are broken. Just put something on the website where you can go in and do it!

It was anti-LGBTQ+ in the early 90s via QT and recently qt started that up again on twitter so I’d be ok with the bbc ending, no bigoted organisation is ok, they rejected stonewall and lie pride is political too, they keep siding with bigots, maitlis admitted to being transphobic and anti-LGBTQ+

In the last decade, the BBC has legitimised climate change denialism, paved the way for Brexit, defended the coup that was prorogation, over-platformed Farage's Far Right projects, and is neutral on our abandonment of human rights norms.

What is this 'good' it supposedly does?

I think the combination of the dominance by the BBC of news, together with the levels of trust it enjoys, gives it a degree of influence which is unhealthy for it and for democracy. And it uses them to perpetuate a status quo-ism which is demonstrably failing the nation.

BBC 24hr News is an albatross around the neck of the organisation.

Very much in agreement.
Personally I'd be pleased to see BBC News disappear entirely. To argue, as many do, that British politics or our news environment would be so much worse without the BBC you have to explain why British politics and news environment is so very bad with the BBC.

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

Genuine question:

When you make a “ooooh” noise, do you make it as a minion or as a green alien toy from Toy Story?

Incredible shit here: the man who provided the template for stomping on the BBC when it displeases malicious actors in politics, complaining that malicious actors in politics are using his template for stomping on the BBC for displeasing them.

I feel really uncomfortable with Brianna Ghey’s name being used to push ill-conceived “phone free education” policy.

A blanket ban can’t be the answer.

It’s partially because they’re imperialists and the US president is the head of the imperial regime.

There’s no proper interrogation of what they’re doing in their skulls.
The president of a foreign country is trying to censor our TV. And loads of "pro-free speech British patriots" are cheering him on.

The best part is that it’s an ad for Blinkist, which sells you brief summaries of the key points in nonfiction books. He can’t even pretend to enjoy reading for reading’s sake.

It’s time to build something new. Something different. Something for us.

It's increasingly my conclusion at least 50% of all British folklore is just bad SAD. I don't really know how other people live their lives so unalienated from their own bodies and in control of their own energy and motivation. Everything from now to March is just weak light through bare branches

Hello team. How's your SAD doing this year? Mine is making me feel like an inside out football sock forgotten in a half term sports bag.

I wish I could do every autism/adhd eval because everyone deserves to be told their neurology is something to be celebrated and supported, disabilities and all
Honestly, if you think autism is a tragedy to learn to hide you should stay away from other people

Oh, messaging is fine. It's the racist, transphobic, anti-long term sick, anti poor policies which are the issue.
