Can folks do me a favor?
I was on Bluesky early & it was great. Mostly. I hit the eject button in January.
I came back, many colleagues are here, but still don’t know I am.
I co-created Halt and Catch Fire. I write TV & comics.
Here’s two favorite set photos.

All these "London is finished" tweets are massively insulting to the residents and blatantly not written by anyone who has actually lived here for any length of time.

The Graun have run three different first-person pieces in three days with roughly the same headline: "My depression stopped in an instant!" I'm really happy for these ppl who did yoga or drove a car but take heed, this is part of a concerted push against meds & mental health care inc leave.

I really am going to be very consistent here in that Bannon and the fascist movement have been talking about their goals being to eventually use musk as a villain to create the appearance that they are pro social and anti capital. If they go through with this we are going to be in deep trouble. 1/

I am curious how BTP are going to decide who is trans and who isn’t, for their male officers to strip search.
If you aren’t carrying an I.D with your gender on, what’s their criteria to determine the right of a man to strip search a female-presenting person?

Not everyone is affected equally.
The poorest third could see their incomes fall twice as fast compared with the middle and the top, 2025-30.
They are disproportionately effected by job losses, rising housing costs and falling real benefit income (even before disability cuts).

Under-22s with long-term illnesses or disabilities will no longer be able to claim health top-up on universal credit under UK govt plans.
66,000 18 to 21-year-olds will lose it.
People can't easily see GP, dentist, get access to hospital but will lose benefit.
This is reckless and brutal.

Even those with extreme disabilities in the unfit to work category are likely to lose money.
Inflicting misery is a political choice.
