YouTube's hold on Google News is highly disproportionate. Especially given that social media and video content were supposed to be adjunct to print journalism. By sheer numbers, these data suggest it takes up a greater proportion than all other outlets.

Fascinatinlgly, different keywords showed variations in the behavior of users with how they engaged with the platform. You can start to see a behavioral difference based on valence and year.

Oh yes, all those HRT overdoses.

I look forward to seeing what pretext they come up with to give #Streeting the opportunity to ban it.

So in the last few years there’s been a thing in the #UK where people have insisted their #islamophobia #homophobia and #transphobia are protected by the Equality Act as deeply held personal beliefs, and they’ve repeatedly won in court.

It’s just a weird flex. Ok yes, you have the human right to think *whatever* you want and be awful to people. But maybe don’t?

As a self determining free human you also have the right to roll in your own shit but no one does that and these things stink worse.
