Now hold up one second

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

Cubs’ top of the lineup looks so different without Cody Bellinger

writing CK in the dirt in front of third base and praying every time a lefty comes up to bat

The Times casually misgendering a trans man because it's on the side of abusive parents.

Red Sox fans lashing out at…Triston Casas? …after Pete Alonso signed with the Orioles is why they deserve nothing good in the world.

Welcome to the Hall of Fame, Joe

I’ve seen this happen so many times in non public facing people and it’s so fucking bad! JKR bullshit morality where it’s not the deed that matters, it’s the person performing it.

It’s extremely strange to have someone still posting about me eight months after an argument about Rafi Devers (which, uh, the trade proved me right on?) Love an alleged leftist throwing about mental health slurs in defence of Alex Fucking Cora lol. Imagine being sore about someone disliking Cora 🫢

FUCK OFF

One update to this: Campbell is expected to start playing the outfield in Puerto Rico as soon as this week.

I agree that we should not judge Farage solely on the racist things he said when he was a kid. We should also judge him on the racist things he has done with the entire rest of his life.

I’ve spent a quite depressing amount of time over the years trying to explain to the Sensible Moderates that these awful people hate nice middle class professionals who are social liberals almost as much as they hate the left, a thing that almost all of them resolutely refused to believe.

Love Jeff Kent but agree on cowardice of the committee. Here’s an amazing bit from Joan Ryan’s team chemistry book (read it! It’s got interviews with Bonds and Kent!) about how Jeff Kent doesn’t like birthdays & other things:

With normie blood/ with blood sucked thru a soda machine, mixed with Red dye #5 and natural cherry flavoring, then put back into booodstream

i’m not thrilled tbh

Imagine a world where it doesn’t take fifty years for British journalists to have the penny drop 🙄

DAVE DOMBROWSKI, ON THE PHONE OUTSIDE A RESTAURANT: Yeah. Okay. Fine. So is the blood back inside him

one of many parallels between anti-vaxxers & those who oppose gender-affirming care: they start by pretending they have a very specific concern (MMR vaccine, puberty blockers, etc), but once given any sway or say on the matter, they quickly strive to eliminate all of it

We’re in Arson Judge territory, people

Bryce Harper ready to step in as Secretary of HHS

Who are the grandads with 6 all Ireland medals? #latelatetoyshow

That was all so lovely that I'm gonna need a culchie child soon as a palate cleanser #LateLateToyShow

this is the most consequential journalism scandal since Stephen Glass and this is a website with a lot of journalists on it! I am absolutely going to continue posting about it, sorry. Feel free to block or unfollow me if this bothers you!

Can't help but notice that this kind of "Teehee look at the rubes" cackling over collective punishment is rarely used in the same fashion when stories about a white woman (or group of women) being harmed by the actions of the administration get published. Interesting how that works

@helenkennedy.bsky.social hey you’re a cunt, just thought you should know since you turned off your replies on your Somali tweet

*world’s longest fart noise*

In November an 18 month investigation into ADHD concluded. It found ADHD is massively underdiagnosed with less than 1 in 20 people over 40 receiving treatment. It said GPs need to be diagnosing it. Instead a review has been launched looking into it being 'overdiagnosed'

This both blows my mind and becomes less surprising every day

Probably more influential and consequential in peddling hate and division is Guido Fawkes. Look at the 'mainstream' media figures who began there:

I wrote this about the UK government appeasing the far right in February. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

This is a journalism scandal, not a "sex scandal," and with prominent outlets still running cover stories sanewashing RFK Jr. as more and more children die, it's far from over www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2025/12/the-...

Trevor Noah's mom got it right

Yes where else could men possibly receive this scorching insight

Lithgow saying that a family friend with a trans kid came to him and literally said “please don’t do this” and he did it anyway really gives the game away. they don’t not know

The man who raped me did so in a place I thought was safe, and was known to me. The only rape cases transphobes get agitated about are those where they can point fingers at trans people (though I’ve seen a lot get excited about minority rapists too). Should tell you how sincere they are.

We're watching the wholesale burning of every scrap of dignity afforded to trans people in the UK, their rights, their medical services, their employment, their place within society, their bodily functions. It is a disgrace, and a disgusting stain on the government and media of this country.

They got me absolutely dead to rights

Bluesky’s staff and moderation policies are further right-wing than 2010s Twitter’s was, but people don’t realize it because they are comparing it to 2020s Elon Twitter instead

I wrote about the dirty, demeaning, absolutely booming business of turning something like a shitty bigoted college essay into a shitty public career as a bigot, and also estimated how old Marine Todd would be today. defector.com/the-conserva...

a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit

@lucaturin.bsky.social reading out this to my better half and crying with laughter, please tell me there will eventually be another guide

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

This is just “I have a special interest and I’m going to reference it in everything possible regardless of how inappropriate or fash,” isn’t it?

It’s too bad it’s actually illegal for white people to be referred to Prevent

linkedin grindset style posting has been the worst thing to ever happen to san francisco and the tech industries image

as always, transphobia consumes your entire personality until there is nothing left but deeply offputting garbage
