Briony Clarke now identify as a bent judge.

“she found Graham Linehan was a ‘generally credible witness’ and appeared to be ‘genuinely frank and honest’.”
They keep fucking editing the article, but it's not any better. And this addition about why the judge referred to her as "them" is like a parody of impartiality

I do try not to get too alarmist but I do have an increasing concern about the possibility of a major collapse in institutional legitimacy (government, courts, media) arising from what is a pretty undeniable shift on their part to the far right positions on most social issues

Fuck, I was hoping for next weekend
“Whether the universe will ‘end’ at all is not certain, but all evidence suggests it will continue being humanity’s cosmic home for a very, very long time.”
How will the universe end?
Will the universe keep existing forever? An astrophysicist explains how scientists aren’t entirely sure, but they can make predictions.

pretty much every long-time Labour volunteer I know is seriously considering whether to vote Green or Lib Dem.
It is amazingly horrifying in how little Labour leaders have zero, even negative faith in the values that their party's supposed to stand for. I have the deepest sympathies for the party ground floor workers and supporters who're disgusted by this grotesque betrayal of their values. It's despairing.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.

"Gender GP provides access to a vital service to adults that should have been fulfilled by the NHS provision."

Nothing else. No other statement given by anyone. Give them no soundbites or wiggle room.

They are coming for private transitional healthcare. I'm warning you all.

I guess it’s a compliment that the top story on BBC London’s TV/online output today is a direct lift of a month-old London Centric story? But once again the BBC is consistently the worst news outlet for actually remembering to credit others.

If Linehan can call that child a sissy, AGP, and misgender her, and be found not guilty of harassment, then I ENCOURAGE YOU ALL to not give a hoot about legal threats from GCs for "libeling" them when you point out that they're nazi-adjacent bigots, funded by the American right. Oh, and nonces.

I am not going to dive into the back and forth on piracy. I have a side, you can guess what it is.

But I will say one thing: if you get the books from your library, you're still not paying for it and the author does get compensated.

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

Fun fact I couldn't mention until now: At the time Graham Linehan was harassing Sophia Brooks online, I was contacted by her former teachers and School Safeguarding Team to get her latest contact details, as they were worried sick about her being publicly stalked by an abusive alcoholic celebrity.

It feels worth mentioning that Graham Linehan’s harassment literally continued in the courtroom, as he repeatedly misgendered Sophia, and referred to her as “Tarquin”, a fictional deadname he made up for her as part of his harassment campaign. The judge was complicit in this harassment happening.
I wonder if I spent all day, every day, for years, calling Graham Linehan - or the judge - a nonce and then, when I saw him in the street screamed it in his face and smashed his phone, would a judge find I had done no harassing?

And that's not even factoring in the age of his victim
