Hoping that the rain will stop for five minutes so I can take the shopping in. I think I could be waiting for much much longer.

Important to note that these aren't comments from 30 years ago when he was a stupid teenager but from less than 2 years ago. These are the opinions that Reform have and share openly TODAY

If we end up with a Reform government we’ll deserve it. They aren’t hiding their hatred of women, minorities, immigrants. They are telling us it loud and clear and if that’s what the country votes for then hell fucking mend us.

We interrupt tributes to Jesse Jackson to bring you your daily dose of racism. Thanks, Beeb. Respectfully handled.

Never won more than 1 gold medal at a Winter Olympics. 2 in one day. 2 for one athlete. Great job.

if this has to be a news story it should be that a qualified and competent doctor has been run out of a struggling NHS simply because she is transgender

This is now literally the lead story on BBC News Scotland. The employment situation of a private individual harassed via lawfare is deemed the main headline for national news. This is genuinely sickening. The media is a cancer upon this country.

Susan Smith of For Women Scotland is quoted in this piece saying that Dr Upton leaving the NHS will be "a relief to female patients." The employment tribunal found that Upton had done nothing wrong! She was completely innocent of any kind of harassment! www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/1592555...

Taking aside the falls, the men’s skating just isn’t as much fun as the pairs. would you rather watch a highland jig to the Proclaimers or some bloke skating to the sound of his own voice?

Gaun yerself teatra man. Cracking result. #WinterOlympics

He really is a creepy arsehole. And if he's elected it's just more proof that we get the politicians we deserve. If people see all this and still think he's in any way suitable to represent them it says everything about the public.

Taking aside trans kids’ right to dress in accordance with their stated gender, why the fuck does it matter if a cis girl wants to wear trousers? If a school can’t function smoothly because some lassies choose trousers not skirts there are deeper problems with competence of the leadership/faculty.

Ach. Sad (but not unexpected) news about James van der Beek.

Lib Dems unable to schedule a post. Doesn’t bode well.

Come on Lilah and Lewis. Amazing.

With costumes. From a theme week.

Grief really does sneak up on you out of the blue at times. My mum died 9 years ago this month and as I was driving home I just thought “I’ll give mum a call for a chat”. Smack in the face.

I don’t hate Keir Starmer, I don’t think he’s a very good politician but I don’t view him with the same contempt I have for (eg) Johnson/Truss. But failure to fire Morgan McSweeney is inexplicable. The buck does stop with Starmer, but if your chief adviser gives you constantly bad advice you get rid

Half a million children will be pushed back into poverty. For maybe 5p off a pint. What a shitty thing to do… www.bigissue.com/news/politic...

Bought the first book of two different series in January. Now my Amazon wish-list has increased by about 30 as I've had to add all of the books from each series. And the remainder of another one that I've been reading over the past few years. Stand-alone novels are so much more responsible...

The producers of Harry Potter & The Cursed Child on Broadway fell over themselves to suck up to Jeffrey Epstein in 2018. Rowling's had less to say about that than trans women accessing health care. Yet again, it's fuck all to do with protecting women and everything to do with bigotry.

trending checks out

Holly does such amazing work. If you are able to spare even a little, do donate to help care for these beautiful cats. And if you can help boost Holly's post, here or on other SM, that would be a big help. Thanks x

When I first started watching the NFL I picked the Minnesota Vikings as my team. I liked their never say die attitude but it was really a random pick as I have no connection to anywhere in the US at all. But I'm so glad to have picked a state full of absolutely bad-ass bastards

"I'm a bit sexy". No you fucking aren't mate. #TheApprentice

There’s at least one otter in our local country park (cuts right through the town) and honestly, maintaining this environment is a great use of council tax.

Badenoch's strategic genius on full display here, telling centrist voters to fuck off, including in the 60+ seats the party lost to the Lib Dems, so she can focus on competing with an extreme right party ahead of her in the polls.

the good news for Kemi Badenoch is that she's actually being handed on a silver platter an opportunity to partially detoxify her party without needing to do anything other than appear non-toxic the bad news is that she is Kemi Badenoch

Every single defection reducing the lunatic wing of the Tory Party gives a bit of hope there can be a recentre-ing of politics and a reasonable centre-right party. I'm not sure I could ever vote Tory ever again - they've been so bad, but people like Braverman leaving can only be good.

Listening to Pink while cleaning the kitchen. Don’t think I’ll ever listen to her music again without a smile for @wombat37.bsky.social

every time someone complains about it, that's right, i will simply post the NATO gay flag again

Thoroughly worthy winners. Congratulations to them both. So lucky to have wriggled off so many hooks, but amazing gameplay throughout - and in the end they were faithful to each other. #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK

Fabulous result. So glad Stephen didn't screw Rachel over. #TraitorsUK

Where are the poppy patriots? Why are they completely silent on this grotesque insult to our armed forces and specifically the 2,000 UK service and civilian personnel who were injured and the 457 who died in Afghanistan?

Oh Stephen. There’s a difference between taking part in conversations about the other traitors and actually starting them. #TraitorsUK

Oh Faraaz is such a sweet boy #TraitorsUK

Convinced now that Stephen is going to Alan Carr his way through this. #TraitorsUK

Loved Harriet’s questioning but think she may have overplayed by being quite aggressive. #TraitorsUK

@littlemavis.bsky.social That was a beautiful service and you spoke so well. I hope knowing how loved Michael was and you are can offer some comfort.

Well that’s me crying and laughing at the same time. Goodbye Wombat, you’ll always be missed.

Rubio looking for an escape route. Too late mate. This is on you too.

I don’t know if all white boys with glasses just look the same but I can’t help feeling that Jack is related to Ross and Diane from series 2. #Traitors

Nick Mohammed is just the most precious person ever. #BigFatQuizOfTheYear

Simon Blue’s Argentine Tango was sublime. #Strictly

If it comes out that Vito is a wrong’un I‘d genuinely be heartbroken. #Strictly

Merry Christmas lovely phone people.

Christmas ham is on. In the smoker naturally

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...
