Also!! I’m finally launching my new queer athlete fashion series, Out Fits. The first edition will be hitting inboxes Sunday, featuring everyone’s favorite papi, Tash Cloud.

"You'll laugh your heads off!" Look at these fucking assholes.

He was quickly released but sounds like it was right to detain and question him. Wonder when he will go back to Romania to make deals with accused prolific rapists, the Tates?

The Dems want to '...create Transgender operations for everybody...', apparently. Well that's nice

Also, here's another one that bothers me. Pop psychology: OCD is when someone is clean/organized Actual psychology: OCD is defined by intrusive thoughts that cause significant distress and obsession, and the sufferer may perform compulsions or rituals in an attempt to relieve anxiety caused by-

tbh reposting this on here (there aren't a lot of kids on here) feels a bit futile so I just want to champion Scarleteen as a really incredible accessible resource for kids seeking inclusive sex ed (+ other stuff re: teen safety) and if you can get it into the hands of kiddos now that'd be good

I think one thing educators can do is to help youth analyze how they’re already being socialized into these systems through student monitoring software, online proctoring, etc and then develop ways for challenging these systems at different scales, from the classroom to school to district.

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record. I just don't know what to say anymore.

Remember Tala, the genderless alien library mascot? I think that may have been my favourite "gender-critical" meltdown (so far).

It is, far and away, the most challenging thing I’ve encountered since entering the academy. And that is saying a lot. I might be working on this but I keep putting it aside because I’m not medicated enough to describe how demoralizing it all is.

You can't joke about anything anymore. Because you signed a multi figure contract with the Saudi government that said they wouldn't pay you if you did.

George Hardy, last of the Tuskegee Airmen's World War II combat pilots, dies at 100

They are so afraid of this they won’t seat a newly elected Congresswoman from AZ to keep it from happening.

Roman inscription at Boldog: At first sight you might easily overlook this stone in Slovakia, especially compared with the imposing remains of Roman monuments elsewhere. But its significance becomes clear once we consider the broader historical context. #RomanSiteSaturday More 1/

"Meanwhile, St. Pete Pride, which hosts the largest pride parade in the Southeast U.S., has vowed that its 2026 events will continue."

Autism is both a difference and a disability. Saying “not disabled - just different” sounds affirming, but it’s actually ableism. It treats disability as shameful, as something we must distance from. That isn’t liberation - it’s lib respectability politics.

For my birthday can I get a lil promo on my webcomic? It’s a bl fantasy about an one night stand turned forced proximity. When a heist goes wrong and a diamond is lost the Wolfie and Ciel have to work together to find it. Read: adamantheartcomic.com

Shorter JD Vance: You are not allowed to criticize ICE. Goes along with shorter Pete Hegseth: You are not allowed to criticize the military's action at Wounded Knee. And shorter Donald Trump: You are not allowed to criticize me. It's full-on authoritarianism, all the way down.

Wow! This ICE agent has bigger problems than just dropping his gun. Just asking questions: why is tough guy pointing a gun at bystanders, and does he even notice that the magazine is on the ground too?

Trump’s America 😑 ICE arrests superintendent of Iowa’s largest school district

🇩🇪 #BREAKING | More than 100,000 at a Pro-Palestine protest in Berlin, Germany

Around 80% of the psychiatric hospitals in the U.S. that have violated the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act in the past 15 years are owned by for-profit corporations. Only a few have faced any repercussions from regulators. By @emcahan.bsky.social

Greece has joined Italy and Spain in escorting the Gaza flotilla… they understand the genocide. It's time to break the siege and the man-made famine. #Genocide #Flotilla #Greece #Italy #Spain #Israel #Palestine #FreePalestine #GazaFlotilla

First they came for George Galloway and I said ”sure I'll take it, but Nigel Fucking Farage is RIGHT THERE, lads!"

Example 2: A neurotypical person is upset. An autistic person responds by sharing a similar experience that happened to them NT: “I wanted empathy but you’re making it all about you” Autistic person: “This IS my empathy - showing I understand by relating through my own experience” (6/7)

the most cishet thing I've ever done is read the FPCC fish population survey of a lake we're going to be fishing at to my girlfriend over breakfast or maybe that's just autistic. idk. it feels straight.

Aldrich said: “How many WhatsApp messages in a row is too many? Where’s the sweet spot between ‘I like you and wish to cultivate a friendship’ and ‘dear God stop before this person takes out a restraining order’?”

Even INSAR—the extremely brouhaha-avoidant International Society for Autism Research—is like, "This Tylenol and leucovorin talk is some bulls**t": "Such unproven claims have the potential to cause harm for autistic persons, their families, and society at large." www.autism-insar.org/page/INSARst...

Epstein was connected to Thiel through their co-investments in Valar Ventures, the value of which, at $170 million, makes them the Epstein estate’s largest asset. Mandelson’s lobbying company, Global Counsel, advised Palantir during the procurement process bylinetimes.com/2025/09/25/b...

Adam Kula, who can usually be found in the News Letter attacking LGBTQ+ people, is today calling on the PSNI to go after Palestine Action supporters.

You are not alone.

So to recap: 🟣Farage made Gill Welsh UKIP leader 🟣Gill left UKIP 2 days after Farage and has admitted to his first count of Russian bribery THE SAME DAY 💎Gill joined Brexit party and re-elected to Brexit Party during the bribes period 💎Gill made Welsh Reform UK leader 11/14

And the bribes Gill has admitted to? 6th Dec 2018 to 18th Jul 2019 6th Dec 2018 - the same day he followed Farage out of UKIP He joined the Brexit Party with Farage in February 2019 and remained a Brexit party MEP until we left the EU. In March 2021 he became Reform UK’s leader in Wales 10/14

There seems to be some *confusion* among Reform supporters over Nathan Gill being one of them “But, but, Reform didn’t exist when he took his Russian bribes” “But, but he was in UKIP” “But, but it has nothing to do with Farage, he barely knew the guy” So here’s a little history lesson 👍🏼🧵 1/14

Charlie Kirk's wife started a dating app and she's trying to pull dudes in by saying that she's on there too. Let me be perfectly clear: If I ever die in a politically motivated shooting, use my death as an excuse to goon as much as y'all want

You have to prove right to work to examine a PhD in the UK… I have never been asked to prove right to work when examining PhDs in any other countries.

Faculty should strike. Shut it all down. We teach from research not the whims of dummies.

Would any of my Manchester friends be interested in joining me tonight for Want Two: Symphonic. Rufus Wainwright and the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra at the Apollo. I have a spare ticket. 7:30 start, about 9pm finish (so you can still go out afterwards).

Five days to go, and E is for English! A brief history of the English language is the topic of Chapter E of 'Why Q Needs U'. This was a challenge to write, so I focused on three essentials: the Great Vowel Shift, the practice of 'Magic E', and some battle that happened in 1066. geni.us/WhyQNeedsU

Some major personal news:   Things have really changed. Now I need your help.   On why I left academia, why I left America, and why I need your support as I am starting over as a full-time independent writer:   Onward. Forward. Steady:

Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo, one and a half, has begged Paige Thomas, 24, to give it a break after months of constant streaming has left it “exhausted and demoralised.”

"Rightfully denouncing the murder of Kirk as the despicable act of a disgusting schmuck doesn’t mean that we have to celebrate Kirk’s career of ugly statements. Death, no matter how violent, doesn’t magically turn hateful words into sacred deeds."

Reading the comments on The Guardians Politics Live blog yesterday and it was interesting to see that one of the few comments that got nuked was one from a trans woman pointing out this is what Sex Matters want, and it happened within minutes of posting
