A class action lawsuit has already been announced, courtesy of journalist and author Julia Angwin.

I doubt anyone from the @mcgilloss.bsky.social had their identity stolen in this way, but if you have proof that we did, let me know.

I think it's the decades of having to make your own reeds. It does something to a person.

And to think I grew up thinking that was normal.

My mum's an oboist. She's highly prejudiced against wind instruments with no reeds πŸ˜‰

So that’s that, right? We don’t have to put up with endless drivel about how expensive it is to save the planet abd ourselves ever again? Cool.

And if they're actually IN the UAE they're legally not allowed to criticise the authorities in any way, so yeah... Not going to get terribly accurate accounts!

The A Little Less Conversation remix came out in 2002 which gave him a big boost for the generation born a decade after his death, I think. More recently? A lot less.

I wrote to my Green MP @carladenyer.bsky.social to voice my concerns about the government's apparent disregard for all the voices raised against allowing AI companies to freely train their data on our life's work. I was pleased with her robust response and advocacy for stronger regulation of AI.

You’d think in this era of β€œMPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name

That's crazy. And I had another 'god I'm old' moment last week when I realised this other incredible display of masculinity was 17 years old... www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Lz6...

Really Serious People: the Iran war proves that the only way for Britain to protect itself from fossil fuel dependency is to produce her own fossil fuels regardless of the ecological cost.

Me, at home with my electric car and my heat pump and my induction cooker: Er, guys…

Ooh that's bad 😬 now that definitely makes me think less of him!

Yes, but that shouldn't really be where the bar is, surely. Democratic voters have time to demand a better candidate than Newsom. You don't need to settle.

My hot Chalamet take: just because someone’s famous and successful in one area of the arts, doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll have anything sensible to say about other art forms - especially more niche ones like opera. It’s not terribly surprising!

Have fun! I love the IOW and have been there approximately a million times.

People really thought that too re Keir and Labour, but we ended up with protest crack down, anti immigration, anti green, anti trans reactionary policies.

Yeah I'm not a fan. Letting the Emma side down, I feel.
