It is degrading for me to have to share oxygen with transphobes, and much more dangerous.

I turn 40 today and have no wisdom to show for it. I was born the year Chernobyl happened and the world still feels irradiated. But hey, nothing good ever happened because good people have up so we keep going. Things won't get better, they'll be *made* better by people. Anyway, here we go again.

I didn’t want to post the chants but I feel I have to, to underline how absolutely insane it is that there is total unanimity on this from far right to the Sensible centre, while it’s crystal clear to football fans and almost nobody at all is saying “This all looks quite fishy”.

Surprised it's Offord as Reform leader in Scotland, genuinely thought it'd be Tom Harris.

Where's my May & Ben / Jonathan and Martha story in this Superman/Spider-Man crossover? Worried parents of kids they adopted bonding and sharing advice. See where the heroes come from. I am quite aware I'm about the only person who wants this.

Unexpected side effect of the US going full fash is me thinking "hey maybe sometimes the private ownership of guns isn't the worst idea" and I hate this.

American fascism is a hybrid belief that pulls from other regimes throughout history and one of their main inspirations is Franco Spain so this is one of those things that we put in the shocking but not surprising category

America is run by fascists waging war against the population

A few months ago, ICE hired me

I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable

And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

My latest for Slate
You’ve Heard About Who ICE Is Recruiting. The Truth Is Far Worse. I’m the Proof.
What happens when you do minimal screening before hiring agents, arming them, and sending them into the streets? We're all finding out.

I will allow a social media ban for kids if they also open a whole raft of third spaces where kids are allowed and encouraged to hang out, places that are funded and inclusive and safe. Until we give kids genuine spaces of their own, we can't get angry if they create them online.

Everyone, literally everyone: We want more mid-budget films of around 100-120 minutes and in a variety of genres.

Disney, taking a long draw of something potent: give them a budget of 80 biillion and make it 5 times longer than the last one.

This will be a 2/10 stinker, folks, mark my words. James Gunn resting easy.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

Only in the UK would politicians argue they need everyone to hand over a copy of their ID to watch porn in order to ‘protect kids’ from adult content, and then with their whole chest defend ministers remaining on a Nazi infested Twitter while Elon turns Grok-of-Shit into a CSAM printing machine.

"One senior Labour figure told me they've already had conversations on doorsteps with Reform supporters, asking them to lend their vote to Labour in order to oust an SNP MSP, while backing Reform on the regional list."

Labour picking Reform over the SNP is it?

I can understand why some high profile people won't want to leave Twitter entirely in case they are impersonated. The answer, though, isn't to stay on there indefinitely, the answer is the complete destruction of Twitter. We need to make sure there is no benefit to anyone to its existence.

Objectively very funny plan from Scottish Labour, nothing could go wrong.
"SCOTTISH Labour MPS are privately calling for Wes Streeting to stand against Sir Keir Starmer before May to avoid a wipeout in the Holyrood election, The Telegraph can reveal.

"The Health Secretary’s allies are pushing for a “Wes coronation” to give Labour new energy in Scotland..."
