@Ella_M_Whelan Because a mother endangered her life trying to use abortificants outside the medical system.
And you think that's a good thing to enable?

This kind of frothing hatred for women's freedom is just so out of touch with public opinion on abortion. MPs with even the tiniest liberal bone in their body need to have some courage and come out and defend our bodily autonomy, because at the moment Westminster is sounding like a house full of loons.

I dont think being overly emotional is particularly helpful when it comes to matters of the law but for the first time since becoming an MP I am genuinely sad about what parliament has done. I am sad because I know what the consequences will be. I am sad because I know nervous first time parents might give way to doubt and opt out of parenthood and how the reality of that means they'll be denied the greatest gift life will ever give them and instead inherit a life of monstrous guilt. I am sad because, now, healthy babies will be destroyed. I am really sorry that the UK has legalised full term abortion. For what it's worth, I voted NO. I am going to squeeze my children a little tighter and thank the universe a little more than normal this morning. You cannot become unpregnant. You just become the parent of a child you killed. That is the reality of life. We must face it. My babies.

@Ofcom My unpopular opinion is that this is a good idea.
I assumed they are just anti-4chan because 4chan is right-wing, but no, I connected to a UK NordVPN server and they are, in fact, blocking pornhub and everything else.
So yeah, it is equal application of the law, at first glance
English
We've fined 4chan £450,000 for not having age checks in place to prevent children seeing porn on its site.
The Online Safety Act is concerned with protecting people in the UK. It doesn't require platforms to restrict what people in other countries see.

The UK's censorship agency, Ofcom, issued 4chan with a giant fine today. We responded to Ofcom with a giant hamster today.

@BenjaminDEKR @Yrouel86 Don’t bother checking Amazon, I looked and it’s not there yet. When will someone make a Starlink chip for arduinos, pi, and such?

Handheld radio, powered by Starlink...
L3Harris has unveiled the XL-300P, the first P25 land mobile radio with native 5G and satellite direct-to-device (D2D) connectivity.
It will support Starlink via T-Mobile's "T-Satellite" service, it guarantees first responders ultimate triple-layered redundancy (P25, cellular, satellite) so they never lose critical communications.

@TheFamousArtBR Yep, for example Fresh&Fit had their YouTube demonitized in 2023 and since been largely irrelevant since they couldn't get paid for their podcast.
English
The manosphere at this point is irrelevant, it is literally the mens equivalent of a bunch of bitter feminists who hate men.
They’re the same people, but the opposite sex, bitter men who whine and moan about women.
The rest of us don’t really want to hear it.
English
I have a suspicion that this sudden media focus on the “manosphere” and “incels” - about a decade too late - might be another condescending distraction, where we are all urged to pretend that white western young boys and men who seek out male role models are the real problem here.

Something odd is going on at Meta. Why would they remove something that is already implemented?
Also apparently lobbying for age verification.
Trying to make more money off more data collection?

Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram DMs after May 8, 2026. Official reason: almost nobody used it and they need to scan for child safety. WhatsApp still has E2EE, for now.

Yeah, so basically it turns out Meta has been heavily lobbying online age verification laws. They've lobbied over $2,000,000,000 to politicians in form of grants and donations.

A technical glitch in the mobile apps of Lloyds, Halifax, and Bank of Scotland allowed some UK customers to briefly view other users' transactions, including wages, payments, and personal details “I can see another person’s bank account, he got paid £6,000 yesterday ... I can see where they work, almost their whole identity” Via: dexerto

DEI killed the banknote.
The Bank of England has clearly decided that they can no longer deal with activists claiming those memorialised on notes are ‘problematic’, ‘racist’ or ‘not diverse enough.’
You can't cancel a hedgehog, so that's all we’re allowed.

Winston Churchill will soon disappear from UK banknotes, as the cigar-toting, wartime leader makes way for creatures like hedgehogs and badgers. After a public consultation, the next generation of pound notes will feature native British wildlife, according to the Bank of England. Read more: bloom.bg/4lsPoZ2 📷: Joe Giddens/AFP
