Allow transgender women and girls back into GirlGuiding UK
Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

Girlguiding in the UK has banned transgirls from joining. This is a horrible decision. Scouting has been one of the few places my child felt welcome growing up. We should stop pushing people to the margins of society. Please sign and share this petition if you agree. c.org/9Dbq8BRS66

To all the car furries in my life, I offer you this video. See the light! I lived in Victoria for 6 years car-free and it set the bar for what good living feels like. So much bicycling. So cheap and good-feeling. The key is it has to feel safe and fun. Not scary.

People love reminding me that I'm not allowed to post about American politics cause I'm not American.
Even ignoring the problems with that concept in general, my wife is American, their family all lives in America and one of my brothers lives in America. I'm allowed to care about their hell hole.

If the vast vast majority of Americans want reasonable gun controls and they can't get passed by the Congress then our democracy is broken. Or to be more accurate, it has been corrupted. The consciences and reason of our DC leaders have been purchased...for a pittance. Stop the $$ to stop the guns.

I'd like to see the next Dem candidate for president (and the entire party) run on a platform of immediately recognizing the ICC and supporting its prosecutions of all who violate international law including heads of state promoting murder, piracy, etc. Hold them accountable.

📣 Peel Green scheme needs your support 📣
The next stage of consultation for this scheme is happening now, and drivers are objecting to making this area safer for those walking and cycling, because traffic modelling shows it will add 70 seconds to their morning drive.

Great speech by @alpinkerton.bsky.social in support of a new Customs Union with the EU. He also clearly set out the immense damage Brexit has caused.

Almost daily someone wants to tell me that I should mind my own business and stay out of US "politics". So almost daily I have to remind them that Trumpism affects global economics, environment and peace. I'll do what every concerned global citizen should do. I'll express my opinion. Loudly.

I believe strongly anymore that it is the responsibility of every denizen of the Internet to keep it cool, human, and to make it weird wherever possible. The past days of the computer being cool might be behind us, but that doesn't mean that we can't carve out cool niches today, imo

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

Fuck vote blue no matter who. If all this madness isn't enough to get the Democrats to field a candidate who can support trans rights and be against genocide they're telling me they don't want my vote and I'm happy to oblige.
I'm not voting for a more polite Trump. Full stop.

Funny how @zackpolanski.bsky.social suggesting a raft of policies to try and improve the lives of the vast majority is ‘fantasy economics’, but when Brexiteers were allowed to indulge their lunatic fantasies about leaving the EU it somehow became ‘The Will of the People’. 🦄🤔
