It's Accidental Amazon Prime Month so I'm watching some bagoshite, cosy crime thing in the Babe universe called Sheep Detectives. Very disappointing, I was in the mood for Slow Horses but... Nicholas Braun is amazing.

🇬🇧 It was always a risk that Brexit would lead to the breakup of the UK. 🇪🇺 One of the best ways to avoid that would be EU membership. 📊 It isn't just the people of Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland who want membership - our polling shows the majority of people in England want it too.

I notice how quiet bsky is when on #bbcpm a young care leaver opens up. Does noone have a similar experience of this? Or just noone who listens to the radio. What's the Venn diag look like, I wonder. I knew I was weird, but to be still weird 30 years after uni is odd, I think.

There's a sale on at Dobbies. 😉 🌱 What colour would you say this is?
Geranium flowers in a pinkish salmony pinky peachy pink  orange. The label calls it "pale pink" but more shocking, but also a bit twee. So confusing. Bubblegum?

I'm 90% certain this is the lake I fell in, when I was 12. Mum wouldn't help me out because "new boots". She then made me strip and wrapped me in her red blazer but not before a passing couple saw everything. #Northampton #Trauma

You know, it's ridiculous to build data centers and then have the power company sending out emails like, "the grid is in peril! Unplug your TV, toaster, and laptop today for three hours to save energy!" You know what else saves energy?! Knocking down data centers and not building more!

Please add your name to this complaint, to hold the media including the Telegraph, Sun, Guardian and Daily Mail (all at once) accountable for their relentless reporting of Professor Jason Arday. newscord.org/action/jason...
newscord.org
The Mail printed a psychiatrist's guess at Jason Arday's mind. Hours later he was found dead.
A diagnosis-shaped headline at 1:01am on the day he died. His childhood disability interrogated one minute before the ambulance call. A mockery column deleted without a word. File five IPSO complaints...

There's help now for victims of reality shows. We need (rather than more protracted reviews, investigations and recommendations all to be ignored) physical, actual help. Free media counselling for all. Like legal aid.

I feared this would happen. His story was troubling but the wave of hatred and obsession in the media when he was clearly someone who was vulnerable - whatever you thought of him - was entirely disproportionate and in my view fuelled by racists. My thoughts are with his loved ones tonight.
