GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

We have been watching firefighter movies on Transatlantic Watch Party and we started with the absolute classic that is Backdraft! Kara definitely had some predictions when it came to certain characters...

Movie you've watched more that six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star (Wars or Trek), LOTR, Marvel, Disney/Pixar animations. BTW. We'll be discussing this on next week's @twppod.bsky.social

These fuckers claim astronomical profit and the entire point of privatisation is that that hefty profit is to go into this sort of upkeep and modernisation.
Privatisation is a scam and any government who doesnt push back is weak.
Here we go again.

Customers are charged for the costs of infrastructure developments that privatised corporations will then use to charge for provision of their services

Free market economics means the consumer pays twice

I was tagged and asked to take a look at this claim - cos, well just look at it!🙄

Does it seem plausible that THE Trocadero is going to be turned into a Mosque?

It was pretty easy to debunk but I decided to do a deep dive into the reality AND the appalling press coverage

Such a pity that frontline NHS staff aren’t given the space in newspapers to air their thoughts, as Streeting is. The NHS is currently missing around 100,000 staff. It’s no surprise when they’re bashed continually for fighting for fair working conditions🚨

I personally will never forgive them for making Hamza dance a rumba to the Jurassic Park theme. #Strictly
I have NEVER seen anything so ridiculous and unfair on #strictly as asking someone to dance Paso Doble as flipping THUNDERBIRDS and to such stupid music! Whoever thought that up needs sacked @bbcstrictly.bsky.social poor Ross! #strictly

There have always been trans people.

There will always be trans people.

The only "trans agenda" is to live authentically.

Removing trans rights, banning trans people from sports, taking away care for trans people puts you on the wrong side of history.

Trans rights are human rights 🩵💗🤍

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...
