I’ve spent a lot of the last three years investigating the rise of anti-trans politics. Often, it came back to the controversy over trans women athletes.
So I teamed up with @pablo.show to look into the leading figure on the issue: Riley Gaines.

How right-wing superstar Riley Gaines built an anti-trans empire
The swimmer tied a trans woman for fifth. The MAGA industrial complex took care of the rest.

I went to pick up my regular comic book order at @bigbangcomics.bsky.social and they would like the word put out there there that they have loads of cat related books in stock including this one. It's Xmas shopping season now and they have loads of books for the cat lover on your list. #Cats

Thread. A useful way to think about the Heritage Foundation is as a veil of respectability for modern Nazis.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

How far we've come. Now Irish religious conservatism is limited to a few thousand spoiled votes and a lot of airtime on RTE. But the country isn't listening to them any more, thanks to brave women like May McGee.

I reckon if a movie like Deliver Me From Nowhere can be made where it deals with one part of a legendary musician's career, a movie could be made about this tour with Jack Black playing Meat Loaf.
I'll Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Play Moate, Co. Westmeath Again). Only a couple of years before his 1993 comeback, Meat Loaf was reduced to touring the provincial towns of Ireland: here's a brilliant piece on how that went for him www.loudersound.com/features/mea...

King Chuckles The Turd can go worship at a Satanic temple for all I care.
For the first time since the Protestant Reformation in the 16th Century, the Pope and reigning British monarch have publicly prayed together.
The move attracted criticism from Reverend Kyle Paisley, son of the late DUP founder Ian Paisley, who has called for Charles to abdicate.
