This is one of those things that rarely gets talked about that has had a massive effect.

As fields like journalism, art, and academia were collapsed and living expenses skyrocketed they came to skew increasingly toward people whose families could afford to supplement their income.
If you're ever wondered why journalists seem so out of touch most of the time it's because in order to establish yourself you need to either come from money, marry into money, or be OK with abject poverty and daily financial panic

That third thing is unsustainable long-term

So turns out in the UK, it’s only a crime to sexually harass a child over the course of several weeks if she’s NOT transgender. Live and learn.
Father Ted co-creator Graham Linehan has been cleared of harassing a transgender activist, but was found guilty of criminal damage to her mobile phone.

Trans activist here, and by that I mean one time I suggested my then-employer shouldn’t be complicit in the killing of us.

I, in the other hand, want to run away scared from the $1000 billion said cat is running up at the vet today.
My cat just went out of her way to push my phone off the desk… and ran away scared when it made noise upon hitting the floor.

If anyone does choral programming, I have a set of O Antiphons for a small chamber choir. One of my earliest compositions, but I still find them quite charming ✨

These are 3 of the 7 O Antiphons composed by Kate Sattler and performed by the First Readings Project in January 2013. The O Antiphons are sung or recited at Vespers during the last seven days of Ad

Since Saturday morning, when I heard Shaki Tavi's "Breaker" on @dkfm.bsky.social's New Track Weekend, I have had the song in my head. Now it's 2:18 in the morn, and I still have it going in my mind, I guess a sort of shoegazey earworm of sorts. #decayfm #shoegaze

Eveything I've heard from @katesattler.bsky.social has an otherworldly, ephemeral quality, one that's nontheless feeling grounded and real.
Her latest double-single, however, added something else: it sounds pretty damn hot and sexy!
Absolutely one of my highlights this year!

Puberty blockers don't even benefit the majority of gender dysphoric kids in a way such they shouldn't just immediately go on HRT. Blockers are for questioning kids, not kids who are sure about their Identity.

I started HRT at age 14 fwiw. Puberty blockers never would have made sense for me.
The “Pathways” trial is, IMO on more than one level, a thoroughly unethical piece of “research” to be carrying out on children, especially children who are part of a marginalised minority.

Musicians on the red carpet at the ARIA awards share their day jobs via @buzzfeed.com . Musicians, even those being recognized at major awards shows, are severely underpaid. We need the Living Wage for Musicians Act to get ALL artists paid FAIRLY for our work!
