Media bosses in places like Hong Kong risking their lives to uphold principle of independent journalism; bbc giving it away

Content is corporate.

Don't be corporate.

The only way left to combat the algorithms is being aggressively human.

I did some baking for my daughter’s second birthday 🍄

Give a man a fish, lightly poached, with a chilled Chablis and profiteroles for pudding. Don't try to teach him anything. Get over yourself.

Barbie have come a long way. This is ace news. Maggie Aderin-Pocock has her own Barbie! “The Barbie modelled on me is a space scientist with her own telescope. Girls should be shown that anything is possible”. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/mar/09/doll-barbie-space-scientist-inspires-girls-to-dream-bigger?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other #space #physics #women

Studies have shown food tastes about 40% better if eaten while your other hand is holding the fridge door open.

@BethanyBlack Yeah, no one with a voice in the media ever really talks about how phones are just a tool that's being misused by only ever being a way to hoover up shitty social media.

Meanwhile, kids are getting into creative arts using nothing more than their phone because the barrier to entry is lower than ever.

But yeah, phones bad.

Wonderful, several articles today on how smartphones are destroying mental health, shared initially by the usual suspects who are famous for bullshit over sound data analysis and then amplified by people who really should know better.

They say smartphones when what they mean is “unmoderated social media”, but they don’t want properly moderated social media, they wand teenagers to not have access to phones.

Food and drink producers are greenwashing their products by classifying them as CO2 neutral and must be banned, according to one of Europe's leading consumer NGOs.

In a report published on Thursday, the European Consumer Organisation (BEUC) says that 'greenwashing' labels are becoming increasingly common on the shelves of supermarkets, as brands are discreetly stating that the product on sale is climate-neutral and therefore good for the planet.

Big cities like Hongkong inspired the Megapolis Architecture series—a digital art showcase of dense and sometimes dystopian buildings. This way of living together has a particular fascination for me.

"Not so long ago, being nice was seen as a virtue. The modern British right are doing all they can to reframe basic humanity as a vice."

The UK had just 72'000 applications for asylum in 2022. That's a 20 year high.

France had 499'914 in 2021.

Don't tell France they should be doing more when every indication is that the UK does very little except pour hate on desperate people.

My god. Braverman citing the 'law abiding, patriotic majority'.

If it walks like a nazi, looks like a nazi and speaks like a nazi.

She's a fucking nazi.

If you access corporate email on a personal device that can be unlocked with FaceID, you must change your face at least once every sixty days.

You may not reuse any of the most recent 12 faces.

The reason why small boats cross the channel are myriad. The main one being that there are no legal options available to them.

Braverman is lying to you. Stoking the hatred, turning your attention from the problems the tories have created, and fostered for 13 years, to poor people fleeing war, famine, persecution and death.

She is the worst of us.
