The brushing genocide under the carpet operation has started in earnest

Me as we creep closer to overtaking the tories

If you've never been to Gaza, you won't appreciate what the yellow line means. Basically Israel now holds most of Gaza's small but important agricultural land. Continued Israeli occupation, which I judge the likely outcome, makes Gaza even more unliveable and more dependent on outside goods.

A new week - and a new huge milestone!

No other film ending has ever gone this hard. Every time this rolls up on-screen I immediately think, “Damn right I have.”

New TKDB protest for the 1st Nov

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

I openly had my misgivings about how a cis white man may handle this topic, but it's so unbelievably refreshing to see a politician, and a party leader at that, answer the question "can a woman have a penis?" with a simple "yes". No obfuscation, no trying to answer a different question, just "yes".

graham linehan’s latest escalation is hiring ppl to dox and harass trans women. 🤷‍♀️

jus imagine for a second that a cis man was doing this to cis women.

society says not only is it okay to do it to trans women but it’s fine to publicly crowdfund to pay for it. 😕

Wow. Couldn't agree more and we should once again ban gambling advertising and sport sponsorship.
Self regulation isn't worth a damn.

Good morning from Brighton, where we will be reporting on the counterprotest against the FiLiA conference 2025.

10 years ago, the classic milquetoast ableism of "I don't think I could carry on if I had chronic pain, I'd end me" annoyed me cos it felt like saying that my life (which I love) wasn't worth living.

TIL that now I'm older & saltier my immediate reaction is

'Your lack of imagination is pathetic'…

Today is “Coming Out Day.” At a time of intensifying homo/transphobia, being visible as a queer or trans person is personally risky and political resistance. But no one is entitled to your identity or visibility. You do not have to justify your existence to others. Just keep living unapologetically.

Let's make hope normal again.
