Joe Lonsdale first.

Running this tomorrow if anyone fancies chucking a last few quid at a good cause. It's 23 degrees Celsius with no cloud cover so please consider donating before I disintegrate into a pile of dust at the 20 mile mark 🙏

Remember that #SladeAre4Life #NotJust4Xmas 🎄 youtu.be/2095QGjUBrA?...

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.

This has had a massive surge today and it’s very possible we can hit £3k by the time @onlycans.bsky.social does the Valencia marathon! Please please please keep sharing 💖

And don't let anyone chastise you with "how dare you impugn their integrity by insinuating the judges didn't act judiciously". Those powdered wigs don't prevent any judge from bringing their bigotry to bear in the court.

A fine day for blocking Yorpers.

Flight of the Navigator (1986).

Introduce yourself with five animals you've seen in the wild0 Red Squirrel Scottish Wildcat Pine Marten (adult and kits) Great Spotted Woodpecker Red Kite Can you tell I lived in the rural Scottish Highlands?

"Matron!"

don't want to shit on the Trans Mission concert but if Mighty Hoopla are involved then it probably has money from KKR, which is on the BDS avoid list. would be really good to have this cleared up before people get excited.

Fallout New Vegas. Probably would be setting myself up for disappointment, but I would take the bait. Fallout and Fallout 2, if the updated gameplay ISN'T the 1st/3rd person of current Fallout, but still isometric like the 'Wasteland' sequels.

Nearly done you absolute bastard!

I really needed SOME good news today. Happy to see this, that things CAN get better if there's the will. 🏳️‍🌈 Think I might have a joy cry, do excuse me.

For her to spend the campaign ignoring us and refusing to counter Trump's continual, obsessive messaging about how we're monsters and she's enabling us, and then offer this little "oh i wish i could've" like she tried and just didn't get it right is disgusting and infuriating

Less than two weeks to go until @onlycans.bsky.social is running the Valencia Marathon. Just £120 short of the target, I think we can get this over the line 🏳️‍⚧️✊.

"You'll be visited by three spirits." The three spirits:

Mind when the Political Editor at the national broadcaster forgot the Conservatives gave us three PMs in three months when he said the SNP's three FMs in a year was somehow worse? Top rate indeed

402 signatures, over 100 a day. My goal of 500 by Monday is within our sights. Are you a supportive mum, dad, aunt, uncle, sibling, grandparent, extended family member, friend, neighbour, work colleague of a trans person? Take a look at the Transparent Pledge and help Transparent Action grow.

The past fortnight I've had the worst bout of executive dysfunction in a long time, this UC50 form has got me all kinds of twisted. I'm ready for this shit year to be over right now.

No one at Variety ever heard of Cher huh

I miss Killzone. That was always my shooter. The only Killzone game the PlayStation Network even has is the PSP isometric shooter one. The series got shafted so hard.

You all know what to do.

It shows clear intent that they believe anti-trans campaigning should be rewarded and celebrated. We will not stand for this. As such, we will not work with The Herald or Scottish Power. Any requests for their attendance at Stirling Pride events will be refused including participation in marches.

Another politician who has no concept of "public sevice", and thinks that Cabinet positions entitle one to deference. Thatcher's cabinet was full of decorated war heroes. They too deserved every bit of abuse they got for how they fucked the country over. www.thenational.scot/news/2563827...

For this year's #TransDayofRemembrance2025, with which #WorldPhilosophyDay2025 coincides, philosophers can reflect on their complicity in this World's transphobic state of affairs. You can't wash the blood from your hands with abstract theorising. Which is probably why you don't make any effort.

Reminding everyone that when i contacted Valve Steam about my username having my deadname in it. They immediately let me change it, they usually don't but they do for trans people. It made me so happy that i could keep my account that i have had for a long time

There are four types of guy online. No exceptions

Post your favourite Star Trek character. Wrong answers only.

They want us to believe that trans folks are groomers, but men who trafficked and raped young girls are not. They want us to believe that people who speak out for Palestine are antisemitic, but people who push blood-libel conspiracy crap are not. A parallel reality, made of pure hate.

Labour fuckers trying "I didn't vote for THIS" to soothe the two atoms that comprise their conscience. Yeah you did. Just like every Brexit voter got what they voted for. And every Trump voter. Sit and stew in the discomfort and don't try to share it with me. It's all yours.

'Jeremy Hunt' is rhyming slang.

*whistles nonchalantly*

Police Scotland's institutional transphobia apperently "sits alongside, not in conflict with, our responsibility to uphold the equality and human rights of every individual and community." We've long known Police Scotland shamelessly lies to our faces. Before they proceed to spit on them.

Across the pond, Mike Johnson won't guarantee a House vote on extending health care tax credits. Which was the whole reason those 8 Dems caved and capitulated. Trust the Democratic Party to give us all another masterclass on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory for the American public.

And if anybody was wondering, the only thing Rebecca Tuvel took away from the experience was that she should double down and make this her whole deal.

Today marks just six months to go until the 2026 Scottish Parliament Election! As is now usual, I'll be looking to commission a pre-election poll. If you can, please chip in to the crowdfunder here - all donations gratefully received, and even if you can't donate, please share! gofund.me/cf862de1a

Glad I left all of Meta's platforms back in January when Zuckerberg kissed Trump's ring. I becuase I knew this shit was inevitable, alongside transphobia, misogyny etc. I'm not blessed with any special foresight, it just didn't take Nostradamus to predict this was what was coming.

This afternoon @ross-greer.bsky.social and I joined union organisers and sacked workers outside Rockstar Games in Edinburgh. An allegation of union busting is one of the most serious possible breaches of fair work standards. This cannot be acceptable in any industry. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Only £200 short of the next target. @onlycans.bsky.social is running in the Valencia Marathon next month to raise funds for @deeboom.bsky.social & @stargocks64.bsky.social transition healthcare 🏳️‍⚧️. Be a legend and share, or donate if you can! 💜 www.gofundme.com/f/running-th...

A transgender woman, Sarah Jane Riley, died in solitary confinement at Perth Prison in 2019, a day after being refused parole. An inquiry has now found that her death would have been avoided if proper suicide prevention measures had been in place. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A good wee documentary on the people of North Sentinel Island. If you've ever thought "I like documentaries, but I wish on occasion that they had a sarcastic Brit interject with righteous anger when warranted", then you'll like what Moocake serves. Still waiting for Tyrone to return though, IYKYK.

It was horrendous in every respect. I vividly recall an article from GamesMaster (a UK games magazine no longer in print) circa 2009-2010 about "weird" characters from mostly Japanese games. It said of Bridget from the Guilty Gear games: "he's [sic] a bundle of wrongness". That stayed with me.

You and me both, Miss Hollywood.

I manage to succeed at this simply by choosing to keep on existing. Which sounds dark, and it is, but it's the simple choices that are often the most stark.
