I see the outgoing leadership of the @equalityhumanright.bsky.social has leaked their post Supreme Court ruling draft guidance to their friends on the Times. Given how bonkers it is, thank goodness the Government hasn’t laid it. Back to the drawing board.

The EHRC updated code of practice states that he can be excluded from the toilet of his birth sex (chapter 13. 5.5) so he can't use either gendered toilet.
I have never seen any mixed sexed public toilets (as in not inside a venue)
Disability facilities are often within a gendered facility.

I am also disappointed to hear that the EHRC guidance has been delayed by a year, when it should have been thrown in a bin and set on fire.

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

Lucy Powell has warned that Labour should not wave through a devastating trans bathroom ban 👇
Ripping up trans rights would be a disaster for Labour, for business, for women, and for the wider LGBT+ community.
It's wrong. Labour needs to stop aping Trump and Farage, and protect our human rights.

No excuse for UK newspapers, notably The Times, to still be ignorant of this..
During the press conference, officials appeared to take the inscriptions literally, to the extent they ascribed meaning to them at all. But the four messages apparently written by the alleged shooter instead seem to invoke a variety of memes and video game references.

One of the best "future of marketing" focused discussion I've heard in a long time—really enjoyed this one.
We've been making the types of "blind" investments they speak about @outseta.com for 8+ years now—and it's being "realized" more than ever before just now.

The death of web traffic is coming.
It's a bigger trend (for marketers) than AI.
Yes, really.
And a lot of us aren't having the difficult but powerful conversations we need to have to keep doing our jobs right.

We only have one TV in the house and I don’t want one upstairs but I wanted the *option* so I got a short-throw projector. Takes no space, is invisible, until I want to use it. Amazing.

There are so many harms from LLMs that I have lost count.
The notion that AI crawlers have caused Wikipedia’s bandwidth costs to rise 50% is typical; LLMs undermine legitimate sources of information while imposing huge costs on those sources.

The Wikimedia Foundation, which owns Wikipedia, says its bandwidth costs have gone up 50% since Jan 2024 — a rise they attribute to AI crawlers.
