Frightening disabled people to stop claiming benefits, to kill themselves, to live in fear?

@DWPgovuk @VotePursglove You sick twisted out of touch bollockbags may you rot in the sewer we flush you into

All the folks putting on the tin foil hats because there's going to be a test of an emergency warning system. Calm the fuck down.

Get angry about the right things. This isn't one of them. People doing their jobs and testing a system designed to warn you of danger are not your enemy. This smells like Daily Mail paranoid nonsense.

Must be awful to have your blue tick go and no longer be able to feel that you're better and more real than all the proles. 😢

Mark Zuckerberg is an ineffective, incompetent, and directionless executive, one bereft of complete or concrete ideas. He has entirely failed to innovate since the very beginning of Facebook — a product that he never envisioned as a business — and nearly 20 years later, he appears completely and utterly out of ideas. open.substack.com/pub/ez/p/fir

Dear centrist pricks.
If you want to vote Labour, go ahead and vote for the fuckers. Stop asking me who you should vote for, if you've got no intention from deviating from your shit plan. Just don't expect any form of societal improvement. This is how they've planned it. Mugs.🙄

Remember when the govt is telling staff their pay demands are ‘unreasonable’

The same government was happy to pay Deloitte staff £6000 A DAY to set up a test and trace system that ‘largely failed to meet its targets’

They think we’ve forgotten

We haven’t.

Tory @BenHouchen is blocking everyone who tweets this article from @PrivateEyeNews - as though he imagines covering his eyes will make it vanish.

Why though isn't @BBCNews, the @DailyMailUK covering it? Do they share the same political stance?

@GregHands The campaign to stop the deportations was joined by Tory MPs.

The deportations were stopped, because they were illegal, as decided by the highest court in the land.

Why do you hate British laws? Why do you hate British justice?

Matt Goodwin argues a new ‘woke aristocracy’ has taken control of British society & are imposing their ideology on everyone else, & that this influence is more significant than 13 years of Tory rule, the right-wing media, & corporate interests.🤪

This is really fantastic from @paulpowlesland with Nigel Farage.

Calm, confident, informed, persuasive.

Can someone possibly justify to me spending £100 million from the public purse placing a crown on the head of an unelected monarch while pensioners are freezing to death and children are eating out of street bins?

Been listening to @pluralistic 's Little Brother trilogy. Super fun! I hadn't realized it was YA fiction ahead of time, so not my usual genre, but it's still quite fun and a great way to pass the time on long road trips. (I'm about half way through book two.)

Besides the plot, the main character/narrator dives into explanations of things like public/private key cryptography, history of the internet, Alan Turing and Enigma, the founding of EFF, copyright and trademark law and lots of other interesting topics. (I'm guessing that more than a few of the events are autobiographical.)

I'm having a lot of fun with it. Highly recommended. Looking forward to upcoming (adult fiction) book Red Team Blues.
