I’m here on Threads and Mastodon
You’ll get random things from me - mostly Wordle and Fred the cat - and while I love politics my current role demands I am sensible and I can’t post about politics including ongoing conflicts

This is the kind of headline we should be seeing here, but the GOP are making excuses & trying to find a way to “spin” the fact that the person squatting in the Oval Office was accused of auctioning off GIRLS to the highest bidder. Interesting that the anti-pedo MAGA CHUDS are quiet right now.

A manual for ICE's immigrant-targeting computer system, Palantir ELITE, was leaked today.
Let's look at it, then step back to evaluate how far we've come along a dangerous road and where that road might take us. 🧵

Here is the User Guide for ELITE, the Tool Palantir Made for ICE
404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for ELITE, which lets ICE bring up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address.

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.
Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

If you're not familiar with just how unhinged the "Gender Critical" movement is, this thousand strong class action thing might just seem like a random ass-pull, but what it is is that they believe there's going to be some moment where all trans people will just suddenly stop being trans all at once.

Remember how The Times claimed there was a 1,000 family class action against the Tavistock clinic?
We got a FOI out of them, it never happened.

Today my mad head-cold (walked 6.5 miles in the damp yesterday) is being made 1000x more camp
It will go - simply sneezing and sniffing my way through the day
Did this cold get worse with the walking - hell yes! Should I know better at 56? Possibly! Will I do things like this again? Most likely!
