The worst thing you can call a man is a woman. Even if a man is arrested for rape and sex trafficking, you can insult him by implying he's a sissy.

Twice a year, Hawai'i experiences a strange moment where the sun appears to be exactly overhead & anything that is completely vertical casts no shadow. Let's learn about Lāhainā Noon, subsolar points & 'Kau ka lā i ka lolo', meaning "the sun rests on the brains."

Theres another option - after basically doing presenteeism since 2024 Nandy might start showing up for work in brain as well as body

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

JKR and her new org apparently helped get the new Amnesty International report on how TERF organizations destroy lives taken down from their site. Well, guess what? The Streisand Effect is real. Here's the entire report in a thread. Read it. Share it.

What would be great is if people would figure out who's funding the Nazis because 1. YouTube fees and super chats don't pay that well 2. several of them talk about being on benefits 3. The same ones are regularly appearing at several different city demos a week and clearly have a travel budget.

Trying to remember the exact right amount of toxic to be when DMing different people like at this stage I should just have a chart

Reneging on promises of continued care for trans youth who accessed puberty blockers or hormone therapy prior to bans, the NHS is now committed to the forced detransition of 78 trans children. assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

Everything's a conspiracy

I hate that i recognise all these three letters abbreviations that's not healthy

How interesting - is Helen Lewis going to write another chin stroking op-ed about how the gender critical movement ‘explores legitimate concerns about women’s sexed based rights’? Maybe she could profile these ‘concerned citizens’??

These changes to Article 8 in particular feel dangerous given how the UK courts are currently interpreting trans rights IANAL etc so do wait for more qualified opinions, but I'm worried

Bathroom bans are unworkable in practice. When pushed, supporters admit they expect trans people to break their laws. Creating laws trans people have no choice but to break isn't an accident. The intent is punishment of the ones they hate. The intent is driving trans people out of public life

Two chapters into this book and my friend sends me this to inform me that even Butler hasn't fucking read "Gender Trouble"

Errrr…

an abusive, stalking, predatory man assaulted a teenage girl, smashed her phone, and then spent days bragging his crimes on his social media. high court judge: you sir, are acquitted. -- never seen a clearer example that trans women are women tbh.

Labour must be destroyed. It's one week until polling day. You know what to do

trans woman: there are a lot of little things here that seem off and i don't trust the thing everyone else: the thing is fine. stop imagining things. you're always so oversensitive the thing: I'm shit actually everyone else: damn! holy shit. fuuuuuuuck. nobody could've foreseen this

We're never going to be respectable or legitimate in the eyes of a cis society hell-bent on enshrining the reproductive imperative above all. High time we stop trying to prove "we've always been here" and focused on emphasizing that we're not going anywhere.

Instagram, where the clever people hang out.

I'm Jewish. I condemn genocide. I condemn the Labour Governments role in the Genocide. The Prime Minister repeatedly conflating criticism of the Israeli Governments genocide and actual antisemitism is disgusting - and makes so many of us as Jewish people feel less safe.

Forever my queen

ah

Not to be a broken record, but why on earth is Ed Balls there interviewing his wife's work colleagues about a scandal involving the government department she currently runs?

it's cool that the one thing both of them agree on is that transgender people should be denied healthcare. both those ghouls can go to hell

Every year, whilst at the Hay Festival, I meet people who think they are at the Hay Festival but are actually at this event, which coincidentally is in the same town at the same time. I often fondly remember Matt Hancock trying to blag his way into a Hay evening event, only to discover this.

It's easy to lose the substantive win here in the Government's transphobic framing. Last summer, we expected the Code to be forced through without scrutiny. Instead, they have had to amend it and recognise they got their legal analysis wrong. It was our community's hard work that achieved this.

It actually is Baal… and this after a dozen Iranian LEGO animations depicting Baal as his ally. This is hard to even process.

Warehouses on fire, Molotov thrown at Sam Altman’s house, a data center supporting politician’s home shot at — attacks on the ruling class have begun. Every attacker will now be deemed a terrorist, that’s inevitable. But what the ruling class doesn’t want you to know is they made this inevitable.

I think I might start noting down every time a cis politics nerd complains about Eleanora from Stats4Lefties and uses her pronouns rather than saying "this person". I have not heard a solitary "she" from any of them in all the pixels that have been spilled enumerating her flaws

Honestly, that "guarantee" in the 2014 legal-opinion has always been over-reported and under-enforced, but a lot of Western media does not care to investigate the realities or nuances of what life is like for queer people in the Third World. C'est la vie.

Following a tip of from @sideways.bsky.social on the Laurel's new scheme to "help" trans people to "wait well" for their healthcare, I was inspired.
