Don't call me Queen, Black Goddess, or Sweet Chocolate. Talk to me like I'm a normal human. Whoever told you that language would appeal to me is an idiot, and you're an idiot for listening instead of doing basic research.

"Very active in the football scene" = most likely a hooligan. "A fervent activist for working class rights" = most likely fervently anti-immigrant. I wish they would just say so. I don't think he was advocating against the hogging of wealth by the 1%. www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/uk-news...

It's been nearly 24 hours and Keir Starmer has not yet condemned the awful comments made by Mike Tapp. The Labour Party showing us exactly who they are.

Transphobes tend to also be very racist.

For the year 2026, I wish for the loathed "Strong Black Woman" trope to die a swift death. It has done untold damage, especially to sensitive souls like me. An excuse to treat us like crap, then claim we can handle it. Even healthcare professionals perpetuate it. I'm only interested in soft life.

"I'm a CEO and my mom was a CEO, but *you* should be a tradwife."

Why are dumbass EU leaders still posting on X?

The far-right have always scorned the arts. If you're in the film industry (or any other artsy industry) and try courting them, you're going to flop. They post unfunny memes online for entertainment, they're not going to pay to see your work. #SydneySweeney

Dear men dating apps: Demeaning trans women or any other type of woman is a *massive* turn-off, and and instant "no". GTFOH with that shite.

Y'all better be boycotting Eurovision.

Why I don't want anyone coming on my TL with "hIlLaRy WaS rIgHt AbOuT eVeRyThInG" BS (and why this results in a mute or a block). Exhibit C:

the amount of harm and damage being caused by a bunch of ignorant, out of touch, bigoted columnists is really starting to piss me off. why the fuck are these ppl running our country?

It's still Fuck Joe Biden, BTW.

Being an auntie really is one of the greatest joys of life! 🥹

Life is overwhelming. You are going to get those days when you just need to cry, skip the gym, and order pizza.

I've reached a stage where I just don't tolerate "negging". It's not fun, it's basically the opposite of a confidence boost. Either be supportive, or go fuck yourself.

Farage saying that he never "directly" racially abused anyone rather than flat out denying racial abuse makes me wonder in there are videos or voice recordings somewhere.

Hey yall not what I wanted to do on my birthday but let it be clear "Death of the artist" is all well & good but you cannot Seperate the art from the artist when the artist is still alive, a terf & every penny they recieve reinforces their beliefs & is used to actively harm Trans folks! Let it Go!

Last year, I lived in a town that was just outside of London. Getting into Central London took 23 minutes by train. Yet, commuting to work cost me over £50 for each day I went it. Transport costs are disgusting, so don't expect me to impressed by this short-term freeze.

Not political = either lying (is conservative), or not very bright. #dating

That's not enough; ban Israel completely. Nobody I know well is going to watch if they participate next year. www.independent.co.uk/arts-enterta...

Netflix needs to drop another good true crime docuseries, most of the recent ones have been meh.

Other than the fact that it can do certain mundane tasks for you such as writing cover letters, everything was better before AI. Especially art. One of the main things that brings joy, light and colour to this world. Destroyed by AI.

Guy who isn't affected by racism says racism isn't important to him. I guess it therefore shouldn't matter to those of us who are targeted by it, then 🙄.

I'm old enough to remember how Starmer "dealt with" the Forde report findings.

TIL I learned that the reason why liberals devalue the lives of people in countries which they deem to have insufficient freedoms is... because they don't believe that those lives were worth living anyway (typo in original). This is how I know their "support" for BLM is purely performative.

Actually, this viewpoint is the privileged one, and very Western. Because you are used to living in relative comfort, you think that a life without it isn't a life worth living. This is how Westerners justify treating the lives of people from certain parts of the world as though they have no value.

According to our newspapers, if you're from a well-to-do background & advocate against excessive wealth, you're part of the bourgeoisie and have no business speaking for the working class. If you're a multimillionaire or billionaire spreading hate towards minorities, you're a man of the people.

Bla, bla, bla, you've never seen Game of Thrones. OK, do you want a medal or something?

Under pressure from Europe, court cases and MPs, EHRC withdraws transphobic 'interim update' calling for segregation of Trans+ people https://www.wearequeeraf.com/ehrc-withdraws-transphobic-interim-opinion-on-supreme-court-ruling-and-demands-ministers-act-at-speed-to-publish-new-statutory-guidance/

Labour policy is being celebrated by Tommy Robinson. That's it. That's all you ever need to say to explain who Labour are.

8 years of "What is a woman?" and now it turns out that the comeback was "define a child"

There's a difference between nominal and substantive representation. I want to see people of colour like me in high office to the extent that their life experience imbues them with a substantive understanding of racism and a substantive opposition to it. Who is Mahmood representing here? Its not us.

Got a bit excited at news of the plan to oust Starmer. I would still vote Green, but thought that might at least spell the end of Starmer and all of those other McSweeney-ite ghouls. Maybe someone would step down to let Burnham to run in a by-election. But no, their sights are set on...Streeting 🤦🏾‍♀️

The bar for British politicians is set so low now that hacks just presume "communication skills" & "humour" will be absent as standard. Finding someone that can put a sentence together & crack a joke? They are messing themselves with excitement, like Ustinov has been reincarnated in London Essex.

before megyn kelly said it was okay for her friends to rape 15 year olds she was ranting about how trans ppl are 'grooming' kids.

"Zealously Pro Palestinian party" Genocide is bad actually.

Shut up, Keith. This is on you. Also, he's definitely going to backtrack on this statement within the next few days (like he always does). A weak and spineless leader at a time when we're facing a fascist takeover.

The Starmer-McSweeney tendency is sinking Labour. Their tiny faction is dragging social democracy into an abyss. 🖊️ Neal Lawson

Genocide and trans rights purity tests are good actually.

Let's address the malicious "taqiyyah" lie that I have seen floating around. I'm pretty anti-religion, and have been for the past decade. However, my parents raised me a Muslim, so I have strong knowledge of the religion. My family is now a nice blend of Agnostics, Atheist, Muslims and Christians...

Hopefully you guys aren't unblocking Brianna Wu. The leopards may have eaten her face, but she's still being a bigot and spouting far-right propaganda.

morning all. ✌️ i see all the right piss is being boiled.

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations! His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind. It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

I'm begging y'all to stop giving that single-hit rapper the attention she's desperate for. She's ragebaiting you, and you're falling for it. Let her fade into irrelevance again.

Dick Cheney played a significant role in murdering over 100,000 Brown people in the Middle East. But, according to some Blue MAGA nuts, endorsing Kamala Harris last year somehow absolves him.

Capitalism really went from saying "anyone who works hard can build a good life for themselves" to "you have to be exceptional if you even want a comfortable life".

I knew there was something off about them when they let Prince William (slum landlord) use them for PR.

My mum is a lifelong Labour voter. She even voted for them last year, despite my siblings and I bashing Starmer on the daily. She's now disillusioned by Labour, and indicated that she might not vote anymore. I can probably persuade her to vote Green.

This is now beyond weird.
