Ice cream van, on a stormy Tuesday night in December, at 6.32pm? Hmmmmm

I often watch bits of old TV, and I saw a Ceefax page from 2000 in which a dead trans woman was described as a "sex-swap father", and was deadnamed, but still given female pronouns. Pretty cursed, but it feels like less organised bigotry

There are seven minutes to go until 5.00pm. The parcel is still at Peterborough. Unless the parcel has its own jet-pack, I don't think it's coming, Royal Mail

Can I maybe get folk's opinions: what can the Scottish Greens do better? I sometimes feel like we're being left behind by the rapid rise of GPEW. Can we keep up?

Is it just me that associates "Friday" by Riton/Nightcrawlers with being in a taxi stuck in a traffic jam?

Every time I use one of these strips, I think to myself "Ket? Don't mind if I do" and I can't stop it

This is genuinely massive, like earth-shakingly big in terms of pushing back the anti-trans exclusion drive.

The anti-trans movement have lost a case they didn't expect to lose and really couldn't afford to.

I can't imagine them not appealing (near infinite money) but now the precedent exists.
BREAKING: Employee who demand a trans-exclusive toilet policy loses employment tribunal. All claims, direct and indirect discrimination, harassment, and 1992 Regs, dismissed.

Last year his estate donated the royalties for Last Christmas to his charity that offers funding for LGBTQIA+ orgs and they said they'd do it again this year. Listen to it loads!
Listening to Last Christmas because it is an all-time banger and George didn't die on Christmas Day for you to disrespect his memory by participating in Whamageddon

One good thing about this time of year is that water from the tap is ice cold already ❄️

British "journalists" whining that left-wingers don't like them is always funny. Have you tried doing some actual journalism for once in your lives rather than shagging the establishment?

I see the broadsheets are still putting out whinge pieces about the poor people who won't be able to afford the mansion tax on their multi-million-pound pwoperties :( :( :( Maybe they should be more careful with their "investment strategies"? Or maybe stop hiring the ghost of Trigger as your IFA

Just looking at the front cover of a local newspaper from my home town from 1995 and it's very interesting. Three burglaries in a week and all they get is a tiny mention in the "in brief" section

Coffee with old friends this morning: feeling fine
Go to jewellers and pub: ok, ish

That new Charli xcx song is good, isn't it? Feels mature yet emotional. Her style in it reminds me of someone but I can't think who

Thought I'd try and sort out some recycling this afternoon, but as soon as I'd put glass in the blue bin, it decided to fly across the garden and send the glass flying. Screw this
