it's so fucked up in there I promise you

if you think that Starmer having been a lawyer and yet also obviously a complete shithouse is worth an eyebrow raise please please take that energy and point it at the legal system not just slating the spam charlatan

Ideal relationship dynamic is I'm cloistered in a cell devoted to my art and worship, and you occasionally visit me in the form of ecstatic visions.

if I keep very still no one will start wondering what darkness of mine the prince might have ruled over

Ed Balls tho. Ed Balls. Everyone can see him right? Ed Balls just sat there like this has nothing to do with him. just an interviewer, just a silent sidekick, just a living bit of stage scenery. "Nothing to do with me mate I'm not even here" if I was Miliband I'd be trying to set him on fire my eyes

a screenshot of my photo app on this day carousel showing me sitting in my garden drinking a can of beer and the way the sunlight is falling my hair (in a big sort of not quite a beehive messy ipso) is illuminated by the sun to a fluorescent coral and everything else is in relative shadow

ok fair play photo app 'today in the past' type thinger, this glowing thermonuclear bouf was quite impressive

British universities paid security firm to monitor pro-Palestine students - Liberty Investigates Horus provided reports about student protesters' social media use and undertook background checks on a Palestinian guest speaker

My former employer is selling one of its campuses, ending almost all journal subscriptions, and shutting down programs (& laying off staff) left and right, but it has plenty of money to subject its community to surveillance and thought policing.

stunning work, please pass on my accolades

shout out to your excellent knick knacks, especially the golden flaming orb

both this and yesterday's are absolutely beautiful 😍

God forbid the world should be made comfortable to be in. Everything has to become an app, or service or bullshit, all served with ads that are explicitly designed to confuse people into making mistakes so they can steal their money for no reason.

I’m already shocked and offended every day at university. Shocked by the poor pay and offended by the poor working conditions. 🤪

some of them wanted it to keep killing, some of them simply didn't want to have to pay to stop it or risk workers having any rights or collective power, all of them agreed everyone else dying sooner and living worse was a price well worth paying to stop all this giving a shit about people nonsense

and so far the only thing they've been wrong about is that it gave them more disabled people not less and that the magical AI omniservant was a grift, which half of them knew anyway because they were the ones grifting it

the rich thought it would kill off all the disabled the old and the proles who were about to be replaced with robot slaves anyway and leave the important folk untouched whilst simultaneously destroying solidarity and freeing up resources they wanted for themselves when climate collapse really hit

this is incredible. live action collage

Would immediately buy the mid-century novel that began with this sentence.

A drawing of a white person wearing a red respirator mask and false eyelashes with a pastel blue beehive hairdo full of nesting birds, on a pink background. Big mint green bubble letters say Plus Size Clothes Swap and then handwritten normal size writing says "size 16 + 1-5 PM at Levenshulme Old Library, Cromwell Grove, Manchester, M19 3QE all genders masks required free provided wheelchair access air purifiers"

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: our punk and drag shows have more covid mitigation than disease foundation summits and physicians conferences. Why can we do what people whose careers supposedly depend on the knowledge—with far more resources— can’t? #WeKeepUsSafe

a black and white design that reads "you could learn a lot from a lesbian." to the right of the text are various items such as carabiners, a boot, a lollipop, a hammer, a boot, an apple, a lighter, cherries, a bouquet of flowers, a butterfly wing, and many stars. the entire image is textured to be grainy.

happy #lesbianvisibilityweek!

the meme with the kid playing a trumpet and the other kid running away with her hands over her ears, with the text "2000 saxophone players performing the 1978 Gerry Rafferty hit Baker Street at the same time" by trumpet kid and "everyone in Scotland" by hands over ears kid

oh god if only 🙏🏻

maybe I'll repurpose it afterwards for babybels. babybel carousel

only the rich could afford that kind of outlay

honestly now I'm going to be disappointed all other foods don't come in an assemble it yourself infrastructural model kit

the most exciting thing ever has happened to me: Gareth brought me a surprise cheering up present from the Tesco's reduced section and it's a pylon full of treats 😍😍😍😍
