Living in a post-truth world 🎶 It's no lie, of course; reality *does* have a left-wing bias 🙂
"Fact checking is left wing" lmao wow what a take
German TV news on what is happening in British politics is amazing. No need to understand German, watch to the end
Given that each PM lasts 1/50 as long as the previous one, the next one will last 10 hours, the following one 12 minutes, and their successor 15 seconds. That will be followed by a rapidly flickering kaleidoscope of prime ministers that will collapse the space time continuum.
Tofu: 1; Braverman 0. Lettuce 1; Truss 0.
Beyond jubilation at the (hopefully) terminal implosion of the @Conservatives don't forget what the people in control of @UKLabour are doing; excluding left wing MPs and candidates from standing, regardless of their popularity or electability. @emmadentcoad isn't alone.
When I left the Labour Party in February this year I likened the methods of its internal regime to those of a right-wing dictatorship. The blocking of @emmadentcoad from standing as Labour's candidate in Kensington suggest this might be an understatement. 1/4
But is the language Turing-complete?

New devolpments in extreme violin miniaturisation!
Maybe they should have used their wealth to buy a home for themselves, rather than trying to set themselves up as parasitical, exploitative, economically non-productive rent-extractors?
Two of my absolute favourite musicians on the same @ResonanceFM show, as I write! Ruth Theodore and Nina Harries 💜
Sun's shining, Spring springing into the air for today at least, I just biked to Malmo Road to pick up an order from @atombeers. Lovely out (as I avoided Stoneferry Road 🙂), and with added protein from the fly that flew straight down my gullet as I approached tenfoot and home.
As predicted, Lukashenko didn't keep his promise not to launch missiles on Ukraine while the talks were ongoing. He is a war criminal, just like Putin, and must be punished for his crimes. And, unlike Putin, he doesn't have a bunker.
Iskander missiles were launched from Belarus to Ukraine around 5 p.m. (1500 GMT), an adviser to Ukraine's interior minister said.
Me, writing to an older friend in Odessa: how can I help, please let me know I really want help He writes back: Putins come and go. If you want to help, send us some poems and essays. We are putting together a literary magazine. And, that is in the middle of war. Imagine.
If you're so empathy-challenged to think “meh”, or “TX, what do you expect”, real people will have their lives destroyed, some (too many, one's too many) will die. And it's incremental; once the “T” is dealt with, think “LGB” will be safe? Plenty cheering outside TX, too…

This thread is a pretty good summary of the situation, from someone in a country that *knows* what living next door to the Kremlin means.
Greetings from a Finnish leftist! The international situation has apparently left many people in the English-speaking countries confused. I write this thread in the hopes of sharing a perspective I believe is widely if not unilaterally shared in Finland, most leftists included.
I profoundly hope (but doubt) @sajidjavid will keep his corrupt ideology out of womens' bodies #NoRollback #WomensChoice
OK, I've finally remembered to take the sample tube to the loo when I had a crap; just need to actually *post* the thing now… Clear last time couple of years back, hopefully still so now. #BowelCancer #screening #test #NHS
Well, I actually managed to stir myself into #selfportraiture today, three double-exposure shots, two of which I'll post here (the third is borderline-safe, but I've flagged it as “restricted” on flickr, so there it will remain 🙂)
Dear UK government, If you’d wanted to level things up you’d have done it 12 years ago.
Noticing a lot of “banned book list” graphics going around that don’t name many of the trans-related books that helped initiate this moral panic and yeah, I see what that is.
Carr is by all evidence a copper bottomed shit, but this obscenity cuts deeper; here, in 2022 in the UK and across Europe, Roma are the only people it's socially permissible to racially prejudiced against. This is not acceptable, and must stop.
Okay, here’s a long(ish) thread now I’ve had a chance to calm down. The Roma people are of Northern Indian origin. In Europe, Romas are visibly brown, which is what led to a history of persecution, that started off with 500 years of slavery and led to the Holocaust. (1/)
