Apropos of nothing, The Simpsons is one of the most overrated, soulless, self-satisfied and nasty shows ever. No wonder it's been dragging on for over 30 years. Anything with integrity would never have been allowed to continue for so long.

And the only reason they're doing this is out of simple expediency. Remember how they double-downed, in their usual arrogant way, over the Apu issue. Because they knew they could get away with it.

Alas, Glinner might be down and out, but tons of TERFs remain rampant on the bird-site.

These all tend to be upper middle class, influential and have connections to the media. Many have blue ticks.

None of this surprises me; the inevitable trajectory of well-to-do radical left wingers in the UK has always been towards the far right. Melanie Phillips and the Spiked morons were just the most obvious examples.

A shame, but also what happens when people with expensive London postcodes take over.

If #Google knew everything about you, they would’ve stopped listening to everything you say.

Look no further than your #email system for today’s #surveillancesaturday.

If you know that your #GMail & others are data-mined, is it entirely “on them” that your #privacy is undermined?

Be an active participant in your goal to remain private.

Avoid #surveillancecapitalism by choosing to make (sometimes difficult) decisions. Give your money to better companies with products that respect you more.
