    It’s been over two years since the Gender Automomy Act passed in Iceland, and no ‘man has pretended to be a woman’ to order to access bathrooms, sport, prisons, refuges, women’s shortlists or any other gendered space. None of the anti-trans ‘concerns’ have occurred.

    There is no evidence that any pet will be any safer as a result of this shiny new law. The offence of theft already exists. It has a maximum sentence of 7 years. But it gives the government another chance to posture as Tough On Crime while the criminal courts are in meltdown.

    Well, since you mentioned it, here's the first page of a vendor lobbyists' briefing to a Parliamentary group, recommending that we all must verify our identities, ages, and *nationalities*, to browse the web, in the Great British Internet under the .

    Screenshot from article, text reads 'the headline on this story was changed on 23 august 2021 from 'harvesting your own seed is one of gardening's great pleasures' to 'harvesting the seed of a favourite plant is one of gardening's great pleasures' to avoid any 'ambiguity'

    A better mindset would be to accept that state pensions are a benefit and there’s nothing wrong with receiving benefits.

    We need more rail investment away from HS2 as well - improving east-west routes, electrification everywhere, etc - but that needs to be as well as, not instead of.

    And HS2 does that by being a dedicated line for intercity trains, freeing up space on the existing lines for more local & regional services and for freight. Between London & Birmingham, that space is the benefit, more than quicker journeys.

    . as a constituent of yours I'm asking: please *support* HS2. To tackle the climate emergency, to achieve , we need to (among other things) reduce motor traffic and get rid of domestic air travel, which means we need more rail capacity.

    This attitude of Britain, that we can't help thousands of people in dire need, because someone whom we deem does not deserve that help might "slip through the net", is a sickness.

    Just baffling. How on earth did that pile of scaffolding, oversized pot plants and mangy-looking turf cost six million quid!? (Were Westminster council copying Downing Street's trick of bunging overpriced contracts to their mates with no bidding process...)

    In Canada and UK many say that their emissions are minor compared to China without noting that we have offshored our emissions, they are embodied in the stuff we are buying and they are selling.

    Hi! Crop scientist here. This "male trees are a capitalist scam" idea worked its way to TikTok from a hustler named Tim Ogren. Spreading this disinfo around is just doing free advertising for him. Tree Sex Ed, A Thread

    I’m just a blind girl, standing in front of tech twitter, asking you to describe images. That’s it. No demands, nothing unreasonable, just a request to tell us blind folks what is in your pictures so we can enjoy them too. (I’ll even show you how to do it 👇)

    The worst part of machine learning snake-oil isn't that it's useless or harmful - it's that ML-based statistical conclusions have the veneer of mathematics, the empirical facewash that makes otherwise suspect conclusions seem neutral, factual and scientific. 1/

    We’d prefer not to air our linens in public (unless we’re showing you how vaginal acidity is normal). But we need to say something, and we need to ask your help. The pandemic has been rough for the entire museum sector. Now the Vagina Museum is at risk of becoming homeless.

    Worth remembering that the reason the RNLI is in the spotlight in the first place is because the government is passing a law that will potentially criminalise rescues at sea. Farage is trying to inflame the debate but the extremism in this case comes from the centre.
