Pretty horrified to see an autistic creator on TikTok advertising adobe’s AI by admitting that she puts research papers into the AI program so they can summarise them for her.

Sounds like The Courier thinks racist, transphobic nurses should be in charge of NHS Fife.
English politicians stay in their lane, Scottish politicians have been doing football podcasts/other football shows for years.
I was talking about that Blair clip at the weekend. Starmer is going to have backbenches with a number of talented politicians, who are more popular than he is.
His surname is Mountbatten-Windsor.
I think you should edit this given that John Hoffman survived the assassination attempt on him, so should not be in the list of killings
Reminder Dr Gavin Francis says he treats all patients as irrational, told lies about the treatment of ADHD and aided a colleague in arguing that diagnosis is not a good thing in medicine.
They would be tweeting, they’d completely erase her politics and focus on someone who ‘overcame their disability’ to campaign to make the world a better place (completely ignoring what she specifically campaigns for).
If he reads GK Chesterton’s Eugenics and Other Evils, is there any chance he might learn something?
I think that’s the problem, he has no political instincts, or he has suppressed them so thoroughly, he’s relying on the instincts of the absolute worst.
pritzker continues to have one of like, two good comms teams
Spot the difference
ITV have this headline 100% correct. It was an attempted lynching in broad daylight at a preannounced white supremacist mobilisation. Despite being MLA for the area, the Justice Minister doesn’t engage with victims of white supremacist terror in her own constituency. [1/n]
James mcavoy, are you serious, you absolute fucking cunt Shame on you james, so proud of being scottish and working class, yet cant even be arsed to show basic solidarity to the lgbtqia+ community You traitorous shit
McAvoy is a scumbag
I’ve been looking Bloody Scotland and Aye Write as they come up on my instagram and it dawned on me today it’s absolutely deliberate that I can’t afford to go, they don’t want people who live on benefits at their literary events.
Currently I hate being autistic and having ADHD. All because of things that could be resolved but I live in Scotland and we’re never gonna help disabled people here.
Is the legacy of Stamer’s government going to be restarting The Troubles?
Why is it when someone is a massive right wing asshole, people would rather mock their disability?
The word is disabled not differently abled. We have long-term medical conditions, we’re not secretly x-men.
He says everyone he knows with ADHD has trauma as a child. He absolutely treats it like settled science and not some quack theory that seeks to blame women for ADHD. Both you and he appear to confuse correlation and causation.
Why has this book caused so many journalists in Scotland to lose the absolute run of themselves? Some of the characterisations of Sturgeon in this review are downright misogynistic.
Having just seen a section of Scottish public life lose the run of themselves over Nicola Sturgeon’s book, I don’t think it’s a Labour problem.
I suppose Rayner can now sell her posh flats in Glasgow, her Chelsea mews house and £19m London townhouse, plus her yacht, while she works out how to get the National Crime Agency to unfreeze £75m of her assets. My bad, that's Michelle Mone.
I meant polls have been underestimating labour votes recently if you compare it to by-elections. I’m wondering if it indicates a quiet labour vote (I mean I’m not sure I would admit publicly if I was voting for them)
This is a link to the contact form if anyone wants to make a complaint auth.nls.uk/contact/feed...
Didn’t the polling before the Hamilton by-election put Labour in third?
Extremely emotive opinion here, but I really like Angela Rayner. We've had *years* of Tory MPs and even Prime Minsters running fast and loose with every rule, with little or no consequence, but of course she is held to a higher standard.
And one by one they’ll be gathering on the back benches with no loyalty to Starmer.
I can often tell if a novel set in Scotland has been written by someone Scottish just by the character names.
I remember Blair saying he didn’t want his political enemies out of cabinet because they would be more trouble on the back benches. He might be a dreadful human but he’s not daft. Starmer on the other hand…
“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
I don’t think that’s how we got Brexit. I think racism and a right wing media who spend several decades misinforming people about the EU is how we got Brexit.
I suspect not only will it not be enough for most people, for some it may be a reason to vote yes.
So nationalists are right we’re stuck in the union, if we try and leave we’ll be punished. There is no positive argument for the union?
I don’t think anyone thinks it will be easy (okay no-one sensible), but long term it might be worth it. The UK in its current state is rotten to the core. We changed govt and nothing changed in fact it’s worse. How else do we get change?
Someone woke up and chose violence, they deserve a pay rise.
There’s a twitter account that set up a website to try and identity Motobility cars, every day people claim they know someone committing fraud. But we’re suppose to accept that as the cost of being disabled and receiving state support.
The fact that this article completely ignores the attacks on disabled people, to the point that people have been abused in the street the same using language as the cabinet and shadow cabinet, shows that even the left is okay with disabled people being targeted.
People in academia, is someone ending up married to her PHD supervisor a yikes?!
There are three books about James VI out today/tomorrow. The wild conspiracy theory one from a dreadful English historian has an audiobook. The one from a decent historian has an audiobook. The one from a great Scottish historian does not.
We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.
Probably because someone is yelling in her earpiece to get him off the subject.
🔴 NEW: Scottish Labour says NHS waits of more than two years are 800 times more common in Scotland than in England. Ferret Fact Service looked into this claim and found it to be Mostly True. Our latest fact check: theferret.scot/claim...
“They mean well” is not accessibility!
When we talk about how "Magneto was right," this is why -- here he is, correctly predicting how this is going to go. It starts with dehumanizing; then that leads to tracking; tracking leads to arrests; arrests lead to camps; camps lead to genocide.
“…rather than legislate to assist people to die, let us resolve to legislate to assist people to live.” I don’t feel like I live just now, I exist, nothing more. And every way I turn to try and live is a non-disabled person blocking my way. Give it a few years and they won’t block my way to dying
I’m listening to the audiobook of The Art of Dying, book 2 of Raven, Fisher and Simpson. The books are told from the POV of Raven and Fisher, the narrator for Raven is spot on, the narrator for Fisher sounds posh, which is weird for a housemaid (there’s no backstory that would explain it).
And they will remain the worst while we continue to ignore neurodivergence and treat disability like a personal moral failure. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
I don’t know what it says about me or politics that I swing wildly from pro to anti independence constantly. I mean I’ve changed my opinion three times today alone.
Might just be me, but this just might be what actually arouses me to smack someone in the face with a decaying trout
The Scottish Greens may be pro-trans but they’re also pro-death of disabled people. But most of the left are pretty fucking fine with that.
Most people in Scotland are bilingual, speaking Scots and English or Gaelic and English so are they suggesting that autistic children in Scotland should be deprived of native languages or English?
It’s been a while since I was in a classroom studying politics but isn’t the point of different political parties that they have different policies?
I genuinely do think of voting for the Scottish Greens, but they were responsible for the ban on single use plastics and they’re in favour of assisted dying.
Since I’m on a rant about disability book that only focus on England. The most egregious example was one recently that said the first parliamentary debate on ADHD assessments was in 2019. That debate was in Westminster. Because the first parliamentary debate on ADHD was in Holyrood in 2018.
English progressives???? It’s not happening in fucking England. They don’t give a fuck about what happens here.
Finally my painkillers are on their way!
There’s one Scottish woman included, only because she was the first wheelchair user in parliament. It’s not just your book, it’s every single disability book I read. They do the same to Wales and Northern Ireland. It’s not difficult to include us, it’s obvious authors don’t want to do it.
Worrying given that she’s decent on trans rights
They’re trying to kill neurodivergent people. It’s not even subtle now
Scottish women, are not regarded as human, their death are not seen as important as that of English women. If anyone is going to bring Ireland and wales into this. Wales has 5 witch trials, Ireland had 2. Scotland had 4000, but the 500 in England are more important to the tv boys.
Another documentary about women being killed for being witches in England. Because English women are still seen as more important than Scottish women who were murdered at 12x the rate in England. The prioritisation of English women is everywhere, just check out Francis book for a prime example.
Jesus fucking Christ the problem isn’t young people, it’s gen xers and boomers who can’t spot disinformation
It’s not just fascists. Even left wing organisations don’t acknowledge it.
I’ve seen the r-slur posted on here once, and that guy got rinsed. It’s always being used on twitter and not just by the far right
Anyway happy Labor Day and remember that being sick or disabled (or spreading illness and disability) is a huge labor rights and worker solidarity issue, especially in a country that ties healthcare to employment.
He turned into Jimmy from NCIS without his glasses on.
Periodic reminder I was tortured in childhood over autism and that’s what RFK Jr is trying to usher back in
Yvette Cooper instead of cracking down on racist mobs outside the homes of vulnerable people, is cracking down on the victims.
Oh nothing, just the actual Prime Minister telling people they’re entirely correct to drive asylum seekers out of their communities
If you email an organisation is it a breach of GDPR for them to show them to a third party without your consent and without any business reason for doing so?
Yvette Cooper looked at current British asylum policies and thought, what we need is for *more* children to die in the English Channel
I can’t imagine Pocket Money being the right man for anything
There’s an episode of Elementary set in London where Watson’s boss treats her like shit because she’s American. But it just came across as racist given Watson was played by Lucy Liu.
If you email an organisation is it a breach of GDPR for them to show them to a third party without your consent and without any business reason for doing so?
Holy fuck, there were less red flags at communist party rallies in Moscow during the Cold War!
Honestly if any Scottish First Minister said this they would be seen as an absolute weirdo even by nationalists
The only danger at these hotels is the protestors outside.
This is evil
I’d love to counter Scotland’s reputation for deep fried food, but while I think deep fried chocolate is disgusting, I think deep fried pizza, especially battered deep fried pizza is food of the gods
I’ve got a thumping headache and no painkillers because of NHS Scotland’s shitty rules around when they can be prescribed. The people that make up these rules don’t have a clue about chronic pain
Read the first Raven, Fisher and Simpson from Ambrose Parry. Absolutely loved it. Seems ideal for a TV adaptation.
Loads of them are switching to raw milk, so many things will kill them way before cancer.
So British, or Scottish. It was created in Glasgow. You come to Scotland, you settle in Scotland, you’re Scottish. That’s how it works.
the UK has some of the lowest rates of tooth decay and other dental problems in the world
They’re already doing it, he’s giving them grounds to carry on. So was Suzanne O’Sullivan at the book festival.
I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field. There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.
Bunch of people who never had to uproot their entire lives and move thousands of miles away ought to stop pontificating on asylum and immigration
The trouble with using Victor Frankenstein as a template for today's tech maniacs is that he does pretty immediately regret it. No, what we have is Dr. Moreau, weird colonialists who gets cancelled and then spend their money creating more and more unwanted monstrosities for no particular reason.
We can but people like that castle owner in Perthshire just need to pay much more taxes
I occasionally use because there is disability stuff that just doesn’t make it to other platforms. But I’m starting to resent people with big platforms that make it so.
By football rules George I was Scottish.
Pocket Money got a promotion. Starmer really does hate disabled people
And you both spent August in Edinburgh giving the Scottish government every excuse to keep those waiting lists closed. Did you even know it’s impossible for an adult in Scotland to get an NHS diagnosis of ADHD? Do you care?
It scares me to think of the number of people who must now think they don’t have ADHD because of you. I read some of your book and ended up DNFing it because it pissed me off. It’s nearly as dangerous as Suzanne O’Sullivan’s.
I think your book is dangerous. If I had read it before being diagnosed I would have come away thinking I couldn’t possibly have ADHD. How anyone with your platform thinks that kind of misinformation is good is beyond me.
You mean like someone writing a book saying ADHD is caused by trauma? That kind of counterfactual information.
