It's horrifying watching the harassment of anyone who even mildly criticized Charlie Kirk or pointed out that e.g. thought some deaths by shooting were a reasonable price to pay for the 2nd amendment to the US constitution. He was terrible and his fandom is proving to be at least as bad.

Wild that 'a hobby in common' never made the list. Also glad that online dating seems to have led to a decrease in harassment in the workplace. [Seriously, who the hell sees coworkers as a source of dates? Ew.]
Technology is radically restructuring so many elements of social life, from development and education to dating and politics.
Watch what happens to dating around 2007...

About a month ago, we hosted the North American IWW convention here in Toronto. A poster I designed was part of the merch/giveaways and I'm starting to get some positive feedback with this poster being handed out on picket lines! Extremely cool!

When this aired everyone was talking about it but if you didn't watch it live & didn't record it yourself or have a pal who did, you were kind of out of luck & I swear mostly people were talking about Prince's ass & not the rest of it (!!!); I was not prepared when I finally saw it.
The official sign that Prince was hot again was when he was asked to be the closing act for MTV’s VMAs. Prince delivered the *most* scandalous performance in MTV’s history with the live debut of Gett Off, which was easily the most talked-about moment of the night. youtu.be/yRfYWJmWN2U

I was surprised to learn the WI was founded in Canada and still exists here. I looked at the WI Ontario website. No eligibility rules at all, looks like anyone can join. Maybe the UK org should try that.

If I was head of the WI and an 80 year old trans woman told me it was the only place she'd ever felt respected as a woman, and the British State told me she wasn't allowed to bebin the WI any more, I'd be putting out a public statement declaring the WI to now be an armed guerilla organisation.
This part is *infuriating*. This cis woman heard an 80 year old trans woman say, 'This is the only place I've been respected as a woman IN MY LIFE.'
And did not immediately think, 'I will fight every inch like a dying badger to keep her in my organization.'
Absolutely pathetic.

Apparently the decision of the WI to rescind trans inclusion was prompted in part by an internal faction. If I were a cis member of the WI, I would want those bigots named,shamed and shunned.
Aggressively promoting transphobia should have social sanctions applied to it.

Please also know that even if an autistic person goes along with something, that doesn’t mean it's not a problem. Too many autistic people learn that they have no choice other than to submit to discomforts, & also people in their lives may not even register or believe that their distress is real. 3/

Yes, this, I've experienced a lot of these things.
Here are some avoidable issues that may upset autistic people to the point of self-injury or aggression, yet parents or caregivers might be told such behavior is “just autism,” or that the autistic person needs behavioral conditioning therapy. At TPGA:
