Obviously the movie Idiocracy is satire, but it’s ridiculous to even suggest that we would start watering crops with a sports drink. We’re going to water them with protein coffee.

Tom Morello says Fuck Tommy Robinson at the Download Festival today.

The Bill empowers the state, NHS family to pressure disabled and sick people into "choosing" death to "ease" the "burden" on the state, the NHS and our families. That is the entire purpose behind the Bill - to purge "unproductive" disabled citizens and slash the welfare bill.

The "small minority" in question being disabled people who desperately do NOT want the state to murder us. The Euthanasia Bill is an abomination that would legalise the mass murder of disabled people by an uncaring cruel state, just as it has in Canada and the Netherlands.

The assumption that 'Welfare' has to pay for defence form every panel member and interviewee on @bbclaurak isn't even subtle. It's an onslaught against the poorest households in the country. You can't squeeze any more out of people you've already bled dry. #TaxWealthNotWork

Looks like a Labour MP is announcing they are bringing back the deeply flawed, unsafe assisted dying bill. Forget social media ban, forget about by-election, forget about a fresh start. One MP and multi million ££ lobbyists saying ignore dangers for the vulnerable

I am sick of seeing sick and disabled people demonised and targeted by politicians and right wing commentators saying they must go to work. Unemployment rates in the UK mean there are ALREADY far more people actively looking for work, than job vacancies. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czx2…

Suella Braverman is on @SkyNews spreading a dangerous, barefaced lie that the Equality Act discriminates against white men. As a lawyer, she knows full well that positive discrimination and quotas are explicitly illegal under the 2010 Act. The law protects everyone from being sacked for getting old, disabled, or pregnant. Her rage-bait rhetoric is a toxic, divisive stunt designed to burn down our basic workplace rights just to feed her own career ambitions. #EqualityAct2010 #SuellaBravermanIsaLiar

I know comparing modern society to Idiocracy is really played out but man

The number of people on sickness and disability benefits were not previously hidden. It’s just the media and government hadn’t whipped the public up into a frenzy yet to distract from more pressing issues. Such as tax arrangements of some of the world’s largest AI and tech firms.

We need a “Not interested, this is AI” button or a proper AI blocker. The algorithm needs to learn how badly most people don’t want AI slop.

Imagine travelling to the World Cup and stumbling across three masked fans wrestling in the street. 😭 Then, just as you're trying to process what's happening, a woman launches herself into the action like she's Rey Mysterio. Welcome to Mexico. 🇲🇽😂

The duck is still on the loose in Mexico! 🤣

Hot take: you should be squeamish about making life worse for poor people. This man will just continue to be the midwife of a Reform Government, just like Keir Starmer.

I cannot comprehend how since my sister first entered a psychiatric hospital in 1990 and all the ensuing years of dealing with her & the teams no real progress has been made in mental health provision. The cost both financially and to society is absurd.

Unpaid carers are neither hidden nor heroes. We are just often ignored and exploited despite our pleas to be properly supported. #CarersWeek

If migrant workers went on strike for a day, the country would grind to a halt. If billionaires went on strike for a week, no one would even notice.

this is one of my favorite ds9 cast photos

Arsenal, one of England’s big football clubs, just donated a pile of their players’ old socks to a horse and donkey sanctuary, and the rescued animals are now wearing them. It works because modern football socks are footless. Players wear separate grip socks on their feet, so the long sleeves get thrown out. That shape turns out to be perfect for sliding onto an animal’s leg, where they keep flies off sore skin, hold bandages in place, and cover the leg while hooves are trimmed. The sanctuary, the biggest of its kind in Britain, says the bright red socks have already cut down on vet visits. The donkeys have also decided they make good toys, and have taken to pulling bananas out of them.
