Kid Rock flirting on BBC News is some of the most awkward television you'll see this year.

I can’t get over how cartoonishly evil this is

putting in your fucking “hate speech” policy that a particular kind of hate speech against a particular group of people is explicitly allowed - and therefore encouraged - is the kind of shit that should be done from a volcano lair with a shark moat
Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

This is such a terrible move. This is from a gay bar in London owned by Stonegate.

I am kind of speechless that a pro-integration article confirming that higher immigration has not led to higher crime in the UK has been published in The Telegraph and by Fraser Nelson!

You can't moan that BBC presenters earn too much money and then moan when they leave to earn more money and whine that the BBC should have paid them more to keep them. Make your minds up, eh. www.thetimes.com/article/16c1...

Very interesting thread.
Does HS2 have a future?

And why does that question hinge on an unseen government document and a sugar mill in Nottinghamshire?

I often get those people who say a version of “you just mention you are a tomboy at school and within 12 hours you are whisked into hospital for gender reassignment surgery and that’s that” - read this (which very much reflects what trans people I meet say)
Trans youth ‘waiting more than six years for first NHS gender service appointment’

The report, shared by @annehealthcare.bsky.social , showed that, at the current rate, trans young people could face a 308-week wait before a first appointment! 😳😞

25 Today.

Sunday 21st November 1999 this club was founded by Neil Caulfield.

Our ethos was to be a safe & welcoming space to play sport. Never picking a team on ability alone while giving people a chance to make new friends.

Our ethos remains as strong today as in 1999.

Football is for all

Appreciate this may not be a universally popular opinion but the less you treat BlueSky as a crusade or cause, and the more you position it as simply a superior user experience with a better governance approach, the more sustainable the growth will be.
