he's right and he's right to say it

The American Academy of Pediatricians bluntly telling us the current CDC can't be trusted, and of course they are absolutely correct

I find the provision of third spaces as a “solution“ to banning trans people from bathrooms so offensive and dunno about y’all but im not gonna participate in my own segregation

Its worth noting that in Britain, Mamdani would have thrown out of the Labour Party by a small room full LinkIn weirdos and then replaced by a former private healthcare lobbyist who would go on to lose by 5,000 votes to a Reform candidate who was a convinced sex offender.

The people who don't want Trump/Reform don't want whatever it is the Deomcrats/Labour are offering.

They are running out of time to realise that and the message couldn't be any clearer.

Make sure you take photos of anyone who is taking photos of people in the toilets because it's a crime and they need to be outed.

Obviously wait until they're out of the toilet before you take their photo, otherwise you're breaking the law too.

If Parliament changed a rule they didn't have to change to specifically ban you the day before you were due to turn up to Parliament, you'd think it was targeted, too.

Hot weather survival:
-Ice pops
-Wet wipes/ damp cloth/ frozen peas wrapped in tea towel on back of the neck/ soles of feet
-Window open but blinds/curtains closed
-Sticking you head/hands/feet under cold running water
-Mints

I don’t know how to fix a situation in which opinions like “Feeding and housing children is good actually” and “Rich people should pay their fair share of taxes” are controversial but I do know moving away from these positions is a moral failure.

Going to the theme parks is supporting anti-trans legislation.
Buying the books is supporting anti-trans legislation.
Buying and playing the games is supporting anti-trans legislation.
Talking up the franchise in any guise is encouraging others to fund anti-trans legislation.

Wildflower strips in orchards attract insects that eat pests, reducing crop damage and cutting pesticide use. The savings can be significant, especially in bad aphid years. 🌸

I intend to speak at TUC congress, Brighton, 9 June. My union, the GMB are also fully backing the trans minority at this almost impossibly oppressive moment in our history.

I don’t want to “streamline” my writing. I don’t want to “increase my output.” I don’t want to “write a novel with one click.” I want to write stuff only I can write. I want to read and write novels with soul and heart and a unique voice. Fuck AI. Long live real writers.

Another day another transphobic article in the torygraph.
Sigh

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.
