The UK's social media ban for under 16s is going to be an absolute clusterfuck of epic proportions. OK so in the list of social media sites that will be banned, which were surprisingly vague, Youtube was included. Youtube. You know. The Video Depository? The Video Depository that has things like Public Information Films for Young people? The site with REVISION MATERIALS FOR 15-16 YEAR OLDS? So not only are they going to BORK the internet by making you age verify video embeds that they include, they are going to also block a site that kids studying from their GCSEs and National 5s use to FUCKING REVISE! How the fuck you gonna access Crash Course IF YOU CAN'T ACCESS YOUTUBE, KEIR? OH BUT IT GETS WORSE! So the platforms mentioned are "platforms like Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and X" BUT they stress the ban will NOT include Whatsapp or Signal. Whatsapp has Social Features like Snapchat, and even Signal has stories, so where the fuck do you draw the line? Like that is incredibly vague. How do you differentiate between SnapChat and WhatsApp now? WhatsApp has developed into basically SnapChat with a worse UI, and even Signal has Disappearing Stories ala Snapchat! How exactly do you differentiate between WhatsApp/Signal and Snapchat? A Streaks feature? Oh, and on top of that, as Amnesty very aptly put it, it doesn't actually deal with the REASON Social Media is a problem. Social Media sites are designed to be unsafe. They don't HAVE to be, but they are. They are designed to keep you on the site as long as possible and keep you using it. Banning U16s from Social Media WON'T fix that. It'll just result in a load of 16 year olds who don't know how to behave on the fucking internet, which is arguably more dangerous. it's like keeping a kid locked in their room until 16 and then telling them to drive to the shops for some smokes. They could twist the arms of social media companies to end skinnerboxing and addictive practices, but the Social Media companies have cucked them so hard that they're doing this, so they can continue skinnerboxing people, this time with less preparation, while claiming to be "doing something." OH AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF, all of this was announced on Twitter, a site run by a man who helped incite pogroms and riots, and makes money by letting people who pay him generate CSAM using his AI, and nothing about that is being done. Fuck. This. Shit.

THE FIFA WORLD CUP IS A RIP OFF, IF I WANTED TO SEE A LOAD OF TWINKS PLAYING WITH BALLS I'D GO TO MY LOCAL GAY BAR. THE ALCOHOL AND MUSIC IS BETTER, THERE'S DRAG QUEENS THERE AND ALL THE LUBE I CAN DRINK.

New intrusive thought of the day: Political Ad "My name's Billy Bob, and I fucked this Horse."

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0k274mm7d1o I have been saying this a lot, how the fuck is Independent Green Voice allowed to run under that name?

"This is Irn Bru." Northumbrians raise their hands "No, it's not Alcoholic." hands go back down "This is Irn Bru WKD, it IS alcoholic!"

Who wants to watch me crash out over Aaron Burr for 3:19? https://youtu.be/gnYB5mePJLM

So Lord Walney, who helped get Palestine Action Proscribed, wants "Bash Back" a transgender direct action group to be proscribed, which as we know, will lead to trans rights activists being targeted generally ala people protesting about Palestine. https://removepaywalls.com/https://www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/proscribe-militant-trans-group-bash-back-ex-political-violence-tsar-l9t757tjn This was the same man who in 2018 was thrown out of the Labour party for Sexual Harassment. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/john-woodcock-suspended-labour-why-mp-investigation-sexual-harassment-allegation-a8330126.html Fucker wants to both cover up the fact he's a sex pest and make it so you can be considered a terrorist for being trans or merely not hating transgender people enough.

Gonnae buy a couple of these to fill with pish to keep people away if they get too close.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm4gl6j53w19o Hey remember when we argued that "the difference between digital ID checks and a landlord checking your ID is that the Landlord doesn't make a photo copy of your ID to give to the government"? Well guess fucking what!

"Transgender people are the biggest threat to..." "I CAST TOUCH GRASS" I yell while pointing at you. My invocation echos in your ears are you find yourself transported to the Mongolian Steppe, grass all around you like a Minecraft Superflat world. A Przewalski's horse looks at you, bewildered.

Hope is the thing with feathers. It somehow gets into your living room and flies about frantically. Everyone is screaming and nobody knows what to do.

You fuckers came up with Looney Tunes shit to try assassinate Fidel Castro, let's see some creativity!

Under the upcoming rules, transmen are going to be forced to use the ladies. I think if that is the case, transmen should gather in the toilets of Westminster and sing the Halo theme. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRG9KwvbVhk

In 1804, Alexander Hamilton "supposedly" died in a duel with Aaron Burr. In 2003, a man named Alex Cole Hamilton started running for Office in Scotland, eventually winning a seat in Edinburgh in 2016. We know you are a 271 year old immortal Alexander. YOU CAN'T FOOL ME!

hello mortals, if you can give me a list of interesting people to follow on the fediverse I will be very happy.

Anyway ever notice how American cities build big stroads like this with no firm walls on either side of the road?

This is a post for anyone running organisations: If you have social media that you use for announcements/updates, PLEASE do not use twitter or only have twitter. Have a bsky or fediverse account or something you can ACCESS without logging in. I am NOT joining twitter to look at your account.
