It's telling that men would rather try to invent tech to replace humans' role in caregiving than step up as equal partners in parenting. Telling, that is, in that it shows how financial capitalism and patriarchy work together to dissuade men from doing "unprofitable" labor, like the work of care.

My wife: Can you read our baby a book?
Me: I can just play an audiobook from my phone.
My wife: But then it won't be in your voice.
Me: I can train a voice model.
Parenting hits different when you work in Al.

The governments new "Prepare campaign" advises that “if you live in a home that is more likely to overheat … contact your local council, your letting agency or Citizens Advice to find out what help and support they can provide”. Good luck with that.

A freedom of information response reveals, the government has no idea what the actual fucking Datacentres are being used for. You could be turning off your taps so the water can be used to make child pornography, or nudify celebrities. I mean WTF they have no fucking idea but billionaires want them

Burnham's government has declared datacentres “nationally significant infrastructure projects” that can be forced through the planning system, Even though 'Water UK' – the body representing water companies, – has said there isn’t enough water to support the new datacentres.

I love how these moral panics about family estrangement always bring up children refusing to talk to their parents, never the long history of parents disowning children. It's fine if dad wants to kick out his gay kid, not if his gay kid doesn't want to talk to his homophobic dad.

A naked, gold-covered Trump statue has been unveiled inside the European Parliament in Strasbourg. It’s called “Orange Plague,” also known as “King of Injustice,” and shows him sitting on another man’s shoulders holding an enormous golf club. Covered in reportedly 23-karat gold, of course.

Andy, please just watch the news and open your eyes, ears, mind and heart! Despite Israel's deliberate assassination of hundreds of journalists and the BBC's unabated enthusiasm for Zionism, it is still patently obviously an evil daily genocide!

He knows, everyone knows, hes just too much of a coward to call it out. Which is why its even more essential there are other parties willing to force the conversation hes too afraid of. A large part of the media freakout is because it shames those who also know but would rather be silent from fear

Andy Burnham says he needs to wait to see the evidence before he calls what is happening in Gaza a genocide. But the UN already have the evidence: Israel is commiting four out of five acts of genocide under the 1948 Genocide Convention. Burnham must call it what it is: genocide
