Never mind the quote the picture editor must have something against as that ain't v flattering an image

Robin Ince @robinince.bsky.social · 3d

I think this is dismissive - many people have curiosity removed from them through childhood - leaving school believing science , poetry, art - are not things they are allowed to be part of and terrified that if they try to engage they will be admonished for not understanding things the “right” way

"The only reason people do not know much is because they do not care to know. They are incurious.
Incuriosity is the oddest and most foolish failing there is."

Here is a South Philippine Dwarf Kingfisher

A photograph of a South Philippine Dwarf Kingfisher resting on a tree branch. It has a purplish-pink head with white speckles, a long orange beak, a pearly orange chest and brown wings, with a white tuft toward the back of its collar. It is small and beautiful.

How much of this Riyadh Discouse is thinley veiled Anti-Muslim hatred by gleeful 'liberals' and how much of it is genuine criticism of a Fucked Up (read: awful regime)?

Find out in my new podcast: Lessons in Being Visibly Muslim.

Now add elements of race and the North / South divide and it's basically my life.

Gregk Foley @gregk.co.uk · 6d

There are very few 'perks' to the trajectory my life has followed over the past few years, but it's taught me a lot about class, which at least lets gives me access to that funny feeling one can enjoy when they read writing on the subject by people for whom class is entirely abstract.

Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social · 6d

the going definition of "working class" seems to be whether or not one went to college. look I know we're not going to agree on here about what "working-class" is but can we all agree it's not that?

Seen so many pieces written by white people about racism in last couple of days. Can the British media not employ people of colour to write about this topic? I mean the glaring lack of Black and Asian faces looks a lil bit racist!

Crying racism only hurts Labour

Activists like it, but the median voter will feel attacked.
