But no: they chose Fake Gay Panic.

The degradation of society:
1. Celebrating the k!lling of a CEO
2. Cheering on warehouse arsons
3. Making heroes out of people who attempt political violence

a screenshot of the "New Bestsellers" list from Substack, with Andrew Tate in the #1 position
Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.
My theory is that nobody really watches anything on any streaming service anymore. We don’t cancel our subscription for purely sentimental reasons and they know this.
I don't know why this is so hard for some people to grasp. If we extend our use of fossil gas, rather than going all-out for grid batteries, heat pumps and induction hobs, we extend our dependence on *foreign* sources of gas, regardless of whether we also use the UK's last remaining reserves. 🧵
Do something amazing today. Buy my weird out-of-print novel. Help me make some space in my office. Get really into teeth.

Not So Fun Fact: Since starfish can regrow lost limbs, the Harlequin Shrimp will trap them, eat parts of them, force feed it algae so it grows back, then eat them again, and again like a horror version of farming.
