Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 13/05/2026So weird that in such a varied country the closest they can come to diversity is letting a British guy have a go. 040
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Sorry, the sarcasm was childish of me. Point is that there's one main story related to this event, and effectively he's the spokesperson for it, so it's quite glaring for it not to be mentioned at all, even to shrug off the fact that they're not getting into it. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 13/05/2026I understand that that kind of writing was algorithmically beneficial for Content on platforms like LinkedIn for a while, but I haven't seen that style for some time. It's kind of adorable that politicians are sticking with it. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Indeed it is. Thank you for your considered and salient point. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 13/05/2026And not a single question about the primary reason this year's Eurovision is being talked about. This is why 'traditional media' is lost. 120
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Too many of them would be the ones flinging the shit at themselves. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 01/05/2026This is such a disingenuous message to put out, when the group most consistently conflating the state of Israel with Jews and Jewishness is the state of Israel. I hear very few people on the left making the same conflation, and those mindless pseudo-radicals who do are soon put in their place. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 12/11/2025no-reply email addresses should be outlawed. Communicating with someone in a way that doesn't allow a response is obnoxious behaviour. (No, I don't want to talk to your chat bot or 'ask the community'.) 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 12/11/2025I'm not unconvinced that it can, but I haven't actually seen one yet (which surprises me). 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 12/11/2025Makes total sense that they'd go after people who advocate for AI art. 230
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 12/11/2025Why am I being shown this? I don't follow you, it's not marked as sponsored, and I've never expressed any interest in AI art (other than to shit on it from time to time). Stop it, @bsky.app 070
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025It's that kind of thing that led to me deleting the app. (They're far from the only culprits of course.) 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I'm not going to change your mind on the fundamentals of gender identity, nor am I here to, but I do think it's worth just noting for the record that I think your assertions are wrong and contrary to both compassionate ethics and expert opinion. Not going to debate it here. 110
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Thank you for informing me on those cases, which I wasn't aware of. Indeed, it seems absurd that the definition of rape is 'gendered' like this when its conclusions demonstrably falsify it. 100
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I was also disappointed that assertions regarding coalitions weren't rebutted, though I very much respect the podcast's gentle approach on this kind of thing. (Still wonder if someone could have acknowledged that his position wasn't gospel without it devolving into a scrap though. Hindsight, etc.) 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025It's great to have Tories on from time to time so I can be reminded how profoundly I disagree with their political worldviews, not just (in most cases though perhaps not this) their personalities. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Because it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they've been fooled. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Sincere question though, not trying to catch you out: how much of it did you watch, and why? 100
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Most of the show was people being lovely, I thought. Often stupid, often catty, but not horrible. Sounds like you just don't like certain types of TV, which seems fine. I don't like some shows either. 🤷🏻♂️ 110
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025So spoilers are fine as long as it's a documentary? Or...? 000
Reposted by Non-Functional PhilIan Dunt @iandunt.bsky.social · 10/11/2025What you’re witnessing is a populist assault on the BBC. This is not an institutional scandal in any meaningful sense of the word. It is an attack on public service broadcasting. iandunt.substack.com/p/extra-edit... 1352489847
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025This may be something I've missed, but which rapist (male, I assume) has the BBC misgendered? 110
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025He'd just keep telling everyone he's a traitor, then people would be surprised when they work out he's a traitor, then he'd be voted out and continue to deny that he was. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025The worst part is the bit where you're being forced to watch. (Don't think the Traitors is trying to pretend to be 'reality', btw.) 100
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I'd be amazed if the other charities didn't also do pretty well out of it. 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Nope! This is one thing I'm happy not to be democratic. Leave it to the experts - the casting is one of the main things that makes the show as good as it is. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I'm still having regular physio sessions to treat cringe-related injuries after this scene. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Yeah, and post-partum depression was called hysteria. We've moved on. You? 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I am very suspicious about this, and the supporting quotes and lack of critical voice in the article only make me more so. So the question is: should I watch in the hope that the topic is handled better than it sounds like it'll be, should I hate-watch, or should I just avoid? 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I skimmed back through assuming I'd missed that basic info. 000
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 10/11/2025Hurrah! Better reporting than the actual report. 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 01/07/2025If I were Jewish I'd be concerned about people like @chiefrabbi.bsky.social conflating resistance to the Israeli military with antisemitism. Antisemitism is the hatred of Jews *for being Jews* - it's very dangerous to define all Jews as being represented by an extreme and violent minority. 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Yup. If I'm being wordy for the sake of it when I know you don't have that vocabulary, I'm a dick. If I'm just using the correct word because it's correct and you haven't had the curiosity to learn it, that's on you. 000

Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Nice. Any way a field could be added for opening hours? I know they're a bit flexible, but I've often been caught out by bars closing at maybe 11 or so. 100
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 19/06/2025Thanks! Seems mad that I have to use a second app to be informed of new posts on an app that's all about new posts, but we are where we are. 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 18/06/2025Yeah, was trying to figure out the same thing. Glad it's not just me. 100
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Marvellous. Thanks very much (for this and the rest of your work - particularly grateful for Origin Story). 010
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Very much enjoying (enjoying...? ok, engaging intellectually with) Everything Must Go by @dorianlynskey.bsky.social - I'd be interested in a list of picture credits for the paperback, if possible? Apologies if it's there and I've somehow failed to find it. 100
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Mhmm. 15% vs 16.8% does give a rather different picture... 060
Non-Functional Phil @nfharm.bsky.social · 17/04/2025And this is why we shouldn't tolerate courts ruling on a scientific matter without the extensive input of experts in the field. All the 'common sense', convention, and received wisdom in the world is worse than useless if it's wrong. 020
