"Biological males" is not more clear than calling someone a trans woman.

If anything, it removes clarity because a so-called "biological male" could be a man, non-binary, a trans woman, whatever.

Pretending it supplies any clarity is ceding ground to bigots.
EXCLUSIVE
The BBC has circulated leaked guidance telling journalists to describe trans women as “biological males”.

Clarity should not come at the cost of dignity. #bbc #humanrights #journalism #transparency #transrights

Why do Americans keep calling Lara Croft "Laura"? I've even had a couple of people insist that they're the same name. As if you'd accept someone calling you "Dawn" if your name is "Dan".

I can't believe I have to say this, but if you have COVID don't go to public gatherings/events.

Hot take: people who say more than 1 "like" per sentence should not be allowed to do podcasts

Unless they're also editing it and edit themselves out. No other human should be forced to edit that.

This show is _so incredibly good_. It's cozy and adventurous and funny and wholesome and filthy and gay and surprisingly furry-oriented and you can feel the love in the group in every episode. It's my favourite currently running rpg podcast.
Just reminding the world that Starwhal: Odyssey exists. This show is one of the funniest things I do. It's also my cozy home game that I record anyway.

If you liked early One Shot or Star Wars Campaign there is alot of that DNA here.

This is a workaround I discovered a while back, if a creator puts their NSFW projects in a collection and links the Collection in their profile description, the the Creator page is accessible to those in the UK.

bsky.app/profile/proj...
⚠️ Attention creators on #itchio! ⚠️

If you have a mixture of SFW and NSFW projects on your profile page, you can manually Hide the NSFW projects to make your profile visible to users located in the UK. To access this, log into your account and go to your profile page, then select Edit Theme.

"I spoke to one 80-year-old woman who has been in our organisation for decades, who said it was one of the greatest experiences of her life, and the only place in her 80 years where she’s been treated as a woman with respect.”

What does this do for women's rights?

Hey, you there! eagerly downloading that new Full Cast version of those books by the mouldy bigot lady, this is YOU doing that. This is what you are funding, the needlessly cruel ripping up of trans people's lives

If we're talking about the alleged rampant scourge of non-disabled "cheaters," it's worth noting that extended time has a huge impact on test scores for disabled students, but only nominal impact on test scores for non-disabled students.

So if someone "doesn't need it?" Let them have it anyway

Today I learned that the first drum machine was invented in the 12th century by Ismail al-Jazari, the father of robotics, who created a automaton band that played instruments powered by the flow of water. It featured a drummer whose rhythm could be programmed via wooden pegs in slots.
