How many trans people have the BBC had on this week discussing the BBC's pro-trans bias?
Zero.
Zero.

Anyway. Don't worry.
The Maritime & Coastguard Agency’s 1998 report into the wreck of the SS Montgomery concluded that "do nothing" wasn't an option for this particular ship full of UXO sat beneath the Thames.
So I'm sure they'll deal with it promptly.

We've paid Amelia Tyler, the narrator of Baldur's Gate 3, to voice pieces of the PC Gaming Show since 2023. If *we* can do it, a major game studio can definitely pay actors to say "I found some rusted tools" in ARC Raiders.
I'm here to tell you that voice actors (even very very good ones) are not expensive, more than make up for their cost in the value they bring to your game, and if Baldur's Gate can record real actors for every line of dialogue in the game, so can you for your 100 generic barks or even specific ones.

Here are some more examples. These whistles come with an immigrant rights hotline, instructions on how to warn people. 3D printing is “a way to show a little extra solidarity, because it's being made for a specific purpose.”

The first thing we did as a nation to honour those people’s awful sacrifice was boo Winston Churchill like a panto villain and lurch Britain further left than has ever been thought possible since. Reframing previous generations as nostalgic conservatives is fucking ridiculous.

My feelings about the BBC are largely in line with my feelings about the NHS.
I think it is vital we have a publicly owned and funded broadcaster and its enemies are my enemies, but I *detest* the way it's talked about as some gift to the peasantry we're supposed to be fawningly grateful for.

Revealing division in my timeline between (1) my insider friends who have lived privileged lives who are very keen that we defend the BBC and think it's important it survives and (2) my outsider friends who feel (at best) ambivalent about the BBC's survival.

For both the NHS and the BBC- we pay for it. We are entitled to it. We are entirely within our rights to point out when it is not fit for purpose without having to worry about it being taken away if we aren't nice enough about it.

Big thumbs up to the online seller who added the tracking number to the order info... two days after the package arrived 😆
