My parsing ambiguity radar just melted

From Instagram - today the Dyke Project shut down NHS England HQ to protest the politically motivated ban on trans youth healthcare.

Wouldn’t you like to get away

Andreesen saying that he doesn't introspect slots right into this eh

Having looked at the farce of the "evidence reviews" across two threads, here's a third thread looking at the decision made by NHS England to stop hormone therapy for trans people under 18 years old. The start of these threads is here:

“Who goes Nazi” data point here

A second thread on the NHS England Evidence Review on "Children and Young People Masculinising and Feminising Medicines" (their terminology) The first thread, about one of the ten evidence review papers, is quoted here

Taking a dive into the stuff actually referenced in NHS transgender evidence reviews is always eye-opening (and actually enraging)

Get a load of Ernst Stavro Blowhard here

“Check out the stories of actual matricide!” Is she shilling for “Take A Break” or something now?

Pausing for a time but I was soundtracking my endeavours today with this perfect fit of a vinyl record I found in the morning’s car boot All of these sounds are embedded in my brain since childhood but I had given up hope of ever getting a soundtrack LP (even a remake)

This will probably be a slow and enraging job, but I'm going to start a thread to examine the documents put together as justifications for removing hormone therapy as a (theoretical) option for under 18s on the NHS They are linked here www.engage.england.nhs.uk/consultation...

This was pretty much where the 80s peaked

Holy monophonia, just plucked this from a thicket of James Last records and it’s in damn good shape #vinyl #NowPlaying #RotateyDiskers

This is fucking horrifying, the headteacher caused this school to strip out 100s of titles from the library as inappropriate including feminist, anti-racist and LGBTQ+ positive works, and guess what: "the categorisation was generated using AI" They have entirely destroyed the librarian's career

So he’s invented an enshittified Sinclair C5

Charlie Jade was bumpy as hell but packed in a lot of interesting ideas and left a lot unexplained/unresolved

Outliving awful people is my passion

A brief reminder that Jenni Murray dedicated the last almost decade of her life to anti-trans activism, including working alongside Sex Matters on a campaign, and so should be remembered with that full context of who she was considered.

LOL

Yes

Watched DEAD HEAD (1986), a 4 part BBC drama which revamps "Jack The Ripper" conspiracy theory into a contemporary but weirdly overstylized nonsensical hooray-henry-meets-film-noir vamp-ridden fever dream with Denis Lawson in the lead...

The coastline is infinitely long (according to Mandelbrot) so 9000 miles to take it all in is an absolute bargain Awesome

Fuck Police Scotland

Police Scotland has confirmed its revised approach to sex and gender data, where data collected about suspects and victims of all crimes and offences will ask about ‘biological sex registered at birth’ 🔢 #data #gender #trans #police #Scotland

OK, now I have also read The Juniper Tree and Sisters By A River and so Barbara Comyns is now up there as one of my all-time favourites. The cruelty and beauty intermingled, the deliberately messy language, the meandering and the shocks, the peeking into strange worlds, all so bloody wonderful.

“I don’t have time to go through my notifications and reply to everyone but thought I’d share a few of my public contributions over the years”

So he’s figured out a route to yank Labour’s popularity right down to “infinitesimal” huh

I’m on team give Sinners all the shiny

Another successful morning’s foraging in the grime pits of Lancashire #vinyl #NowPlaying

“I wanted a keyboard that quacked but it was too expensive. So we compromised” said the lady at the counter

IIRC Douglas Copland made this “joke” in Microserfs (1995) where he put it in the mouth of Alice Cooper

Vibe coding is eval() level evil

Missing Doctor Who Recovered! The Film is Fabulous! team are pleased to announce the recovery of two missing episodes of Doctor Who, from the serial entitled, ‘The Daleks’ Master Plan’: The Nightmare Begins (Broadcast: 13th Nov 1965) Devil’s Planet (Broadcast: 27th Nov 1965)

"It’s particularly horrendous to me when you have someone from within our own community who demonises a minority group. I don’t know what’s going on in Wes Streeting’s head, but what I do know is it’s terrifying for trans people,” he said. www.attitude.co.uk/news/zack-po...

It was never about evidence of efficacy or safety, systematic reviews, or concerns for regret. All of it was pretense to fool gullible liberals into joining on the trans elimination project. They don't want us to exist. You cannot compromise with that.

NHS ‘capitulating’ to anti-trans lobby, policy expert says www.thepinknews.com/... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Here's the star spangled roster for the famously banging disco'd LGB Alliance conference in April, btw

🧵 We welcome today’s judgement from the Court of Justice of the EU saying that all EU Member States must provide legal gender recognition procedures to their citizens who exercised their right to move and reside in another EU Member State. Stay tuned for more information! #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Your letter was only the start of it

Somehow I never listened to Civilian by Frank Tovey till today and folking hell, it turns out to be a completely brutal (complementary) listen, right up there with the first Fad Gadget album in rage and rhythm. #vinyl #NowPlaying #RotateyDiskers

Jekyll on one side of the banknotes for the people persons, Hyde on the other for the beast-lovers

Omid Djalili now taking that half step from spouting TERF tropes to ranting about massacres being faked Absolutely baked, the lot of them

⚠️ PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING: We believe NHS England and DHSC policy on transgender healthcare shows signs of ideological capture by the gender critical movement. Current decisions risk serious harm to trans people and undermine evidence-based care. tacc.org.uk/2026/03/10/p...
