She seemed very human here, like someone I could chat over coffee with and get my mind absolutely boggled by her thoughts. Often the “women in stem” seem unattainable in their official portraits or in intense focus. This made her seem like a person. 628538

Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 07/10/2026We have laws explicitly written to prosecute this exact kind of racial hatred and incitement to violence. They exist for this very reason. Why the fuck aren't the government forcing the police to actually act on them. 1111

Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Blaming tax rises for your business closing (and you putting many people out of work) when it's actually because your relationship failed because one of you had an affair with a staff member is brazen.

Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 03/10/2026So I actually reported this. I was bored and it was a terror threat. Apparently, just report the comment to Facebook. We're fucked. Of course the police don't take far right terror seriously. Half of them are. 0141

Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Arguably, the way AI is treated by the American right is idolitary by this framing. 110
Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026By my understanding of Christian theology (granted I am not a Christian scholar though I take interest in their systems of thought) AI is a specifically non-christian thing given that ability of thought is granted to humans, ergo cannot be assigned to machine, even human made machine. 100

Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Seriously though this is a real person who by basically all accounts was not a lesbian and seemingly didn't actually kill anyone, so this show is rather awful to a real human's legacy. No evidence her family were abusive either. 340
Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Also, the state should never have that power. We have seen what that looks like when it is weaponised against LGBTQ people. Alan Turing committed suicide after being sexually castrated. The state cannot be allowed to maim, mutilate, or kill in the course of justice. Ever. It is an abuse of power. 0140
Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Jameela Jamil is once again unhelpful. Chopping rapists dicks off is not the answer. It makes it less likely that victims will report their rapists (who, in the vast majority of cases, they know closely). Retributive violence or vigilantism do not address violent and institutional misogyny. 2140
Reposted by MattLeonardo Carella @leonardocarella.bsky.social · 30/09/2026AI reviews (1) are rarely the most scathing - they tend to hedge and dole out "major revisions" to duds and good papers alike; (2) tend to gnaw at limitations reported transparently in the paper, rather than figure out obvious-but-unsaid problems. Both tendencies have obvious systemic downsides. 052
Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It's saying that we shouldn't have policies that give money to all pensioners when only 16% are in poverty - that targeted interventions will be much more effective and allow us to reduce poverty in other demographics as well. Children's rate of poverty is far higher than pensioners. Far higher. 090
Reposted by MattRachel Cunliffe @rmcunliffe.bsky.social · 30/09/2026This is your semi-regular reminder that pensioner poverty: a) is real b) is significantly less prevalent than working-age poverty and half the rate of child poverty, and c) is such that a pensioner is statistically more likely to live in a household worth over £1 million than to live in poverty 917242
Matt @itsmattagain.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Rather than using public money to subsidise property supply by indebting people further, why not just use the public money to build supply and reduce the Council House waiting list, increase state asset values, and reduce housing benefit costs. 3141
