Teaching all day today so not marching (also would be limping not marching anyway!) but seeing families heading to family #pride & enjoying the pleasure they’re getting from my T-shirt. Thanks again @profjosharp.bsky.social

The CDC has literally been gutted today. There’s no need for “April Fools” when reality is a nightmare for every human on this planet. Thousand of scientists fired. Entire departments erased. 1/

This is maddening if you use MS word to write books. Opt out to stop them using your writing to train A.I. Please share.

Jeremy Clarkson, James Dyson, the Earl of Derby – they’re up in arms about paying tax on the vast areas of land they own. Small farmers are worried that changes to Agricultural Property Relief (APR) will affect them. But who are the big landowners complaining the loudest? Thread: 1/

What will it take for Keir Starmer to stop UK arms sales to Israel?

France 24. Israel is committing ‘ethnic cleansing’ amid mass forced displacements in Gaza, HRW report says. Israel has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza, including pursuing a deliberate policy of forcibly displacing people and denying them the right to return home, according to a Human Rights Watch report released Thursday. The report also labelled the likely permanent dispossession of Gazans in areas cleared by Israel to serve as buffer zones and security corridors as “ethnic cleansing”.

The Guardian. UN special committee likens Israeli policy in Gaza to genocide. Report also refers to Israel ‘using starvation as a weapon of war’ and running ‘apartheid system’ in West Bank.

@profjosharp.bsky.social I just joined Bluesky only to find there’s already a fake ‘valmcdemid-01’ with my pic! So if anybody’s following them, feel free to abandon them for the real thing!
