This is unintentionally the funniest thing linehan has written in years.

I sort of wish y'all took this more seriously, because this attitude is a reinforcement of heterosexuality as a hierarchy. It's an acknowledgement and understanding that it's not enough to "be with" a woman, or even to father children. They define manhood as exploitation, abuse, and dominance.

The Sandie Peggie tribunal explicitly states that the supreme court decision does *not* make it illegal for a trans women to be given permission to use female changing rooms. www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/u...

Decision in the Sandie Peggie case. She was not directly or indirectly discriminated against, her claim of victimisation fails entirely, her claim of harassment fails largely and her claim against Beth Upton fails entirely. www.judiciary.uk/judgments/sa...

Guy who just listened to @gregk.co.uk's podcast @bloodwork.show on the economy of violence: "Getting a lot of Blood Work Vibes from this"

I've never had a trans woman tell me to get back in the kitchen, or make a "joke" about how women shouldn't be allowed to vote. I've never seen trans women outside the planned parenthood calling women murderers and whores. trans women have never dogged me out for incorrectly performing femininity

you'd think the forced displacement of 10 million people from one of the oldest centres of civilisation in human history would get a little more news attention than beltway journalists writing essays on how Olivia Nuzzi is a genius because they want to bone her and you'd be wrong

You’d never see this level of propaganda from *my* country’s state broadcaster 😏

Listen to Blood Work.

listen to Blood Work

I'm really... enjoying(?)... @bloodwork.show The latest hour and a half disection of the career of Dick Cheney was very good, and immensely important for anyone who doesn't remember his tenure, or know how much of what Trump is doing was set in motion by Cheney and co's actions.

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

It's only the Prisoner's Dilemma if you're a grass. They should call it the Grass's Dilemma.

Actually... from my reading of the artists' basic income report, the government did not earn money back from the scheme (although its costs were offset 37%) Most gains were societal and came from putting the artists' improvements in wellbeing in € terms assets.gov.ie/static/docum...

🫣 Profits are for wimps. Revenues are for losers. Ideas sell, not fundamentals Over half the Nasdaq market is loss making. About 1-in-8 companies have no revenues There are a lot more in these camps than in the past

Holding up a copy of The New World at the train station but shaking my head the whole time so the BTP won't arrest me on terrorism charges.

Yarvin is mostly an idiot as well as a nazi, but I do think the fascist project in the us is way more precarious then they like to admit

My old man's a Durstman He wears a red snapback He enjoys record scratching And metal fused with rap

Out of curiosity I did a google trends search for "are orange cats dumb". As you can see, there was nothing for 17 years and then a distinct change in late 2021 which is when @jortsthecat.bsky.social hit the internet. 😆

My take is whether or not he was a groyper is missing the point a bit. What is really happening is the evolution of the spree shooter.

And the Labour government - *Kinnock voice* the LABOUR government - thinks that's all just a wonderful display of free speech, while they also go about arresting pensioners for wearing Palestine Action t-shirts. Because the parasite-king Morgan McSweeney decided he wants racist votes.

Want to be clear that the predictable violence against the police wasn't the only problem with yesterday's march It's that 100,000 angry racists gathered in London for the biggest racist march in 50 years, and anyone not white had to steer clear The govt can't see that because they are inadequate.

Shot, chaser Young men more likely to vote Green than Reform. Young men second most progressive group of any demographic. Combined right-wing vote barely bigger than Green vote alone for young men

KIM KITSURAGI - "What is it, detective? Can you make it out?" BULLET - "if you read this you are gay lmao" 1. "It, um, doesn't say anything." 2. "Transgender ideology. My old foe." 3. [Espirit de Corps - Medium 10] "I think you should read it for yourself, Kim."

Worth remembering that despite all the media coverage attacking trans rights and all the relentless coverage about "the boats" and now about kirk, we can still get more people on the streets than them.

So that's Ireland, Spain, Slovenia and now the Netherlands

My sources say Bolsonaro is being sentenced to 27 years in prison. I am pro-abolition and take no pleasure in reporting this.

It's over.

Have any media (other than the telegraph) reported that this was passed unanimously at TUC Congress yesterday? congress.tuc.org.uk/motion-07-su...

Proud to have closed this debate and for our union @nhbcsa.bsky.social to have been part of the composite motion to LGBT+ Conference. Thank you #tuc25 for standing up for trans people.

I'm not sure 'actually trump should send troops to majority black cities with republican governors' is a great take.

This gets progressively funnier with every use of the term "floppy".

I scream, you scream, we all scream for we live in the UK

The dark lips and collar give the right 90s cybergoth look.

Worth reading The Times' editorial on Powell from 1968. Contrast it with last week, when it pointed out that Farage's deportation proposals would "undoubtedly find favour" and other parties "better come up with something radical." A truly contemptible descent for a once-great newspaper.

Humza Yousaf and Sadiq Khan were/are two of the most senior Muslim politicians in Europe and both are strongly supportive of trans rights religion is no reason to expect less of political figures in GPEW or Your Party

Polling from @Moreincommon_ on Lucy Connolly More than half think her sentence was too lenient or about right. Only a third that it was too harsh. Only 18% think politicians should associate themselves her, while 51% think they should actively distance themselves from her.

he could stop them instantly by providing a safe legal route to claim asylum on arrival. why is this so hard to say out loud

A political-media class capable of colluding in genocide has *already proven* itself capable of the dehumanisation of Others that can sustain fascism at home. Aimé Césaire wasn't kidding about the imperial boomerang.

The support of this is lovely to see. Don't believe the reporting about it though when it says "minor scuffles" and "no major incidents". The cops lost their shit and beat antifascist counterprotestors for two hours. We stopped them and humiliated them, but the cops made us hurt for it.
