- Comment on People assume I can't speak Welsh because I'm not white 2 weeks ago:
That doesn’t make a huge amount of difference, especially with young people. One would never assume that a young person from south Wales doesn’t speak Welsh. They quite likely do.

Actress Mali Ann Rees said inclusivity was key to encouraging more people to speak Welsh, with “no excuse” for unconscious bias.
There’s a huge irony here for me. I called out such unconscious bias once, which was actually perpetrated by a black Welsh speaker against an Asian from South Wales. She called me a racist for calling her out! And Reddit being Reddit, she was then upvoted and I down
I won’t forget that. It still intensely annoys me. So thanks Mali for taking my side here.

I’d be happy with just one leche tbf.

Congratulations on managing to offend the Iranian, Israeli and USian regimes all at the same time. Best laugh I’ve had for weeks 😂

Having just returned from playing the piano for the morning Easter service, something tells me I shouldn’t be laughing at this.
But I can’t help it 😂
- Comment on NHS staff resist using Palantir software 5 weeks ago:
On which subject, I (here in Cymru, not part of the Palantir NHS England problem) received a letter in the post this week asking if I wanted to take part in a large survey for the NHS, which would involve giving a blood sample for analysis. The address given was in England, and so I’m guessing it’s a joint project with NHS Cymru and England.
I have to say that I am not intending to reply to the letter because of Palantir; it feels horribly like a data gathering exercise funded by them.
Does anyone else know about this?

I feel the orange man-baby’s manhood has just been insulted.

It’s difficult to imagine any worse owner than the outgoing one. Hopefully it will step back from the fascist brink now, though Springer are hardly likely to be progressive.
- Comment on Soham murderer Ian Huntley dies after prison attack 2 months ago:
Not for him, no. But it’s deeply concerning that this should have been allowed to happen. How many attacks never make the news, because the victim is not so infamous? And might some of these have been wrongly convicted?

Because anti-fascist groups are more dangerous than actual fascists, obviously. 🤔
