I just had to explain the word 'Shitfuckery' to my 7 year old son...
Some might say it was my fault for wearing the T-shirt in front of a child that can read
But I blame you for enabling me to poison the minds of the youth with critical thinking.
Damn #AntifaFluffers!

He was very good in person with his trans fans too. Growing up going to SF cons, I met many trans people before I even knew what trans meant. I gave my parents very little they needed to accept in their child, so they had lots left over for everyone else. 😉 www.thepinknews.com/2021/08/06/t...

Megathread of pro-trans petitions on Parliament’s petition website. If Labour suddenly gets hit with debates for a bunch of pro-trans petitions, maybe they’ll realise this issue isn’t going away and they’ve fucked up.
I’ll add more as I find them.

I've spoken to half a dozen LNP MPs who had no idea about the citizen 'referendum' policy Dutton is backing in who all think it is nuts - but that is not the point. None are willing to push back because party stability these days means blind obedience, not challenge.

In conversation with @microlabdoc.bsky.social, I discovered that not everyone knows of the hamster's prodigious capacity for alcohol.
They love it so much they prefer to drink 15% ethanol instead of water, and can tolerate relative quantities that would kill a human.

At this time every notable person in Hamas has their feet up in Qatar or Iran, so Israel claiming they’re only targeting Hamas should be treated as the obvious lie it is.
So western governments need to stop coddling a genocidal regime.

Scott Morrison says he and his government did everything they “possibly could have” for women while he was prime minister, and has called criticism of his actions a pile-on which was “weaponised for political purposes”.
Morrison has also said he believes he was “to a large extent cancelled” because of his Christianity and that he became the focus of derision and attacks “because of my faith”.
