If people going to Cuba on their own dime and delivering aid is “performative” then i wish a lot of you would get more performative right now.

If a filmmaker can't be bothered to respectfully answer a simple but important question about how their work relates to the reality of society outside the theatre they not only have no business making films with those themes, they don't deserve to be praised and awarded for them.

crazy how my advice for anyone who’s super online is to “go outside and touch grass” but then I meet an outdoorsy hiker type and im like “oh man, this weirdo needs a scroll sesh stat”

if they ban HRT healthcare for trans adults in the UK, they will conduct a genocide. This will increase suicide rates, it will make people worse off. This is purely genocidal.

ai can’t write good because it’s designed to write pleasantly average sentences with all the right words in the right order and imho good writing requires u to strategically deploy a word that is wrong and maybe even evil

Almost feel sorry for the haters who are trying to spin Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man is evidence of Islamist sectarianism 😂 In fact it’s evidence of genuine tolerance, rejection of superficial identity politics and ability to prioritise tackling common concerns of cost of living, protecting public services and rejecting war mongering. And the promotion of mutual respect and individual freedoms. The coming together of people is terrifying for the ruling elites.

If I want to see anything out of this, it's people listening to the experiences of Black people with Tourette's. We do exist. We just get erased. Most of us can probably address this without downplaying the harm of this or increasing TS stigma.

I can’t lie as someone who has lost multiple people to drugs this turns my stomach. Fuck you Labour for weaponising their struggles and if I wasn’t already never voting for you again for a multitude of reasons this would do the job. Decrim & destigmatising can save lives.

So so often it's artists of colour who take the principled stand whilst their white counterparts wait in the shadows and let them take all the flack until it's expedient for their careers to join them.

Hannah Spencer, Green Party for Gorton & Denton: “We stand shoulder to shoulder with each other, always. Because we are the great-great-great-grandchildren of the Mancunian cotton workers who refused to handle cotton that was picked by slaves. This stuff runs through our blood.”

@AyoCaesar The previous night Roxy asked Rachel and Stephen directly if they were 'keeping her in'. Might not have been *so* obvious to them she would've trusted them all the way, even tho she said to camera she was convinced?

The move for Rachel should've been murder Faraz, keep Roxy, and let her spearhead the drive to banish James. Why did they murder a faithful who'd have never, ever voted them out?!

@noii omg !!! love that. thank you for your intel 🙏 this reminds me there are possibly still parts of the healthcare system that require floppy disc (as of a few years ago when that article about them went viral)

@somethinggrace I said to a doctor friend: "my guess would be no? purely mobile phones now? but I did find and return a doctor's pager outside a london hospital a few years back" but apparently yes. they were carrying 3 pagers yesterday

do doctors still use pagers? asking for a friend who is watching grey's anatomy for the first time

the nhs isn't enough I need to describe my neurological symptoms to Dr Derek Shepherd

I Need To Shoot My Phone

the two friends i send most reels to - one of them desperately wants a child, the other is adamantly childfree. the algorithm is so confused about what i want (a child with jason mantzoukas or not at all)

the voice note is the most marvellous invention when you get the urge to tell your bestie every detail of your day at 2am

This is how the Overton window shifts back. Polanski is the best thing to happen in British politics for years, the anti Starmer. Fearless and clear.
