I've never interacted with the doll space account, and it has me blocked already. i do follow a lot of accounts that warn about LB, and that fact and this thread is all I can imagine that connects me to doll space. soooo
#UK#TransRights IMPORTANT! The NHS is currently engaged in a consultation about the children and young persons gender identity services. If this affects you, please provide your feedback. PS. remember that since the Cass review has been implemented that ZERO patients have been given access to HRT.
Eamonn seems like a perfectly fine chap but as a IT and HR professional who also works as a City of London tour guide, his relevance in the subheading could not be understated, I fear
Who when you Google him, the top results are for the news story about his wife. A very accomplished woman, for having married the husband of Sarah Mullally!!
my cats do this, and when anyone enters the building around the same time my partner gets home from work they will run to the door. they don't express overt sadness or disappointment, but it's very heartbreaking
i do agree in the principal that it is worth examining his motivations to make sure we aren't playing into them, and to not campaign alongside him. i don't mean to handwave those concerns so i apologise if it sounds like i'm doing a "it's not that deep" response here
which isn't an argument in support of my original reply, just that I think the motivation of farage can be obscure and sometimes perhaps simply contrarian. why pat labour on the back if his base are against it, he thinks it will pass anyway, and he can use it to leverage support against starmer?
I've definitely read a real article about this at some point but I can't find it at the moment. Here's a Reddit thread with a pretty comprehensive answer in the comments though: www.reddit.com/r/AskHistori...
This is definitely the most common motivator got him but how do we square, e.g. his statement that he doesn't believe trans women should be automatically be sent to men's prisons? Obviously the reform base is unlikely to align with that, but I can't see a clear financial motive for him to say that
I think Reform voters GENUINELY buy into "Labour are far left and they're trying to get YOU". In the same way that we can fear what Farage could do with digital ID powers, they legitimately, if unrealistically, fear what Labour could do to them.
the sake of convenience, and bigger issues. it's fairly likely that Right leaders know that a large number of their voter base hold these views and don't want to alienate groups who could be electorally fickle. they fear more than anything complete electronic state control so they'd jump ship.
I saw a lot of anti-digital currency signs at signs at the anti-ID protests. It's a position largely fought for by esoteric right wingers, but there's nothing inherently right-wing about physical currency. I'd argue that the left should support it for accessibility reasons, but we haven't for
feature length traditionally animated films. The industry does not want revolutionary tools, because as with Klaus they allow the animators to do something they would never have paid for in the first place. They don't want better at the same price, they just want cheaper.
It was imperfect and required touch ups but was real "AI-assisted" animation, if you want to call it that. It was hailed as revolutionary. Their follow up film was cancelled by Netflix months after it was announced and in the six years since it was announced I can't think of more than 2 western
before "AI" took off, i watched a featurette for the animated movie Klaus. they developed their own machine learning tool that essentially drew the shadows on animated elements, a tedious part of animating that a lot of styles historically skip in favour of unlit animated elements.
I know this, I know this! they actually never died out, they were used by precisely one man, who had lived in the netherlands, in a translation of the bible into english. no one ever actually used them again until 18C dictionary writers poured over every book writing down every new word they found.
Ignore. They haven't posted in 3 months until today and the previous post was supporting Rowling in a thread that began with a screenshot of Rowling encouraging trans women to jump off a roof
You're right and that's where it gets bizarre. YouTube creator Shaun just released a long video "The War On Science" and it mentions Richard Dawkins and his 'atheist' mates describing sex determined by "whether your body is designed to produce large or small gametes". *Designed*? By who??
then simultaneously advance the belief that sex is binary and that it is impossible for one's actual sex to be misaligned with that of their body. It is to suggest billions of years of random flukes produced a 100% flawless process. It's unfathomably unlikely.
i've long thought of transphobia as an inherently creationist belief that has finally found a social arena. It is incoherent to believe in evolution - the idea that the existence of life is a coincidence and all differences between species is a result of successful random mutations - and to
it's actually bizarre how close most conspiracy theorists get to the truth and instead of capital, the decide all evil is aliens or reptilians or... jewish nepotism?
