The relentless, baseless accusations and public interrogations he faced in recent months caused him immense pressure and pain. This has to stop. When respected figures spread unfounded allegations without accountability, real lives are destroyed. (2/3)

I love to see the discourse move into the right direction, finally - too late for Naroditsky, but maybe just in time for others. If someone is getting abused, it's not wrong but not sufficient to offer a bandaid. The abuse has got to stop. indianexpress.com/article/sports…

- THREAD🧵 I'm sorry, but you can't just pretend that Chess.com didn't make some very horrible, unfair, and insensitive decisions regarding Danya during his toughest period. I will talk about those issues today in this thread as many are unaware.

JKR rescued women in peril from Afghanistan. Set up a female-only rape crisis centre. She funds a children’s charity and has received death threats for speaking out on sex-based rights. So for a women’s mag to say this is sickening. Obscene. You’re a disgrace British GLAMOUR

Atrocities like this is why the British Museum is necessary, and you will never convince me otherwise. Some regimes and countries aren't willing or equipped to care for their ancient heritage at all. If it takes Europeans to keep it safe, so be it.

🚨In June, a BBC teleprompter instructed presenter, Martine Croxall, to say ‘pregnant people’. She, bravely, corrected this term by saying ‘women’. Today, the BBC has announced that she broke the rules because of her “facial expression”. Our national broadcaster is a disgrace.

🚨HOLY COW: @ElonMusk has announced his support for Warren Buffett’s plan to eliminate the deficit in 5 minutes: “Just pass a law that says, ‘Anytime there's a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for reelection.’” Do you support this?
