I think the prohibition on torture is a good thing

Took the plunge

What is it with Paisley? Last time I came here a woman collapsed in the café. Just now had to help pick up an old dear who had fainted and hit the deck outside a charity shop…twice.

Woman walking through Paisley singing “Like A Virgin” out loud, I love you and your energy!

Happy 90th to this legend

None since Labour were elected. Not one.

This is Madonna at her most open and vulnerable. It’s inspiring to see her this unguarded and willing to share anything and everything. youtu.be/zUvRv5JrItk?...

Me and Harry are getting our spiritual guidance from Madonna

Owen Jones has been banned from 'Labour' Party conference - but Maya Forstater is welcome. And they wonder why progressive voters are deserting them in droves.

Without a single vote, Scotland has achieved a North Carolina bathroom ban, aided by a millionaire who gets cheered for being nasty to anyone who supports trans people. And my profession laps it up without question. That's the most serious bit: we question none of this. Every author here could be AI

Oh 🕷️

Jesus christ she’s an utter ghoul and could actually be replaced by an AI bot

I've been raising money to support LGBTQIA+ young people and we are so close to the £1400 point! Can you help us get to this next milestone? www.justgiving.com/page/jack-sh...

Keir Starmer can get tae fuck

Emma Watson is a reminder to everyone that those advocating trans people and our allies “debate” with “gender critical” transphobes are advocating the impossible. Transphobes have never wanted “debate”, they want our elimination.

Best do Tuesday I guess

This is not a Gaza peace deal, this is an attempt to whitewash genocide. World leaders supporting this atrocity simply want to save themselves the legal implications of having been complicit for these nearly two years of live-streamed crimes against humanity.

Happy Birthday to my amazing Dad ❤️

This is in the Times today

YES IT FUCKING DOES YOU ABSOLUTE CLOWN

New term

Excuse the Monday morning thirst but this is the most human I’ve felt in over a week

Goodnight

A fellow Scot here. We don't want these racist pricks back either.

😂

I have zero clue what my Halloween outfit is going to be this year…

Also any tips on where to get a piercing in or around Glasgow (that’s not Claire’s Accessories) welcome?

And now the car won’t start. This has been a horrible week of post holiday come down

This is what happens when your government joins in the rhetoric that presents people seeking asylum as a threat and says racist intimidators have legitimate concerns instead of roundly condemning it. Escalation Man arrested after fire at London asylum seekers’ hotel www.bbc.com/news/article...

Still pondering the nose piercing

Morning all

I've moaned about parliamentary petitions (for debates) doing more harm than good for trans people. This is a petition I can get behind and have signed - petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

I’m meant to be going down to Bristol tomorrow to celebrate my Dad’s birthday, but the cough I brought back from holiday won’t shift, so have had to cancel. I’m really upset to be missing it. This one sat next to me whilst I drank my coffee in support ❤️

Neither the left or the right seem to be a fan of ID cards. The right are only in favour of them if it’s for “others” and not them.

Going to be lovely when flag shaggers scream at homeless and disabled people that they shouldn’t have good phones while simultaneously demanding to see their Brit Cards

Seeing privileged cis people defend a privileged cis het actress is just urgh. Listen to trans people

UNISON and GMB endorsed an anti-LGBTQ+ bigot who shouldn’t be deputy or equality minister

The great people @newscord.org have made it easy for you, wherever you are: newscord.org/action/gsf-f... #GlobalSumudFlotilla

BBC news with its Farage fetish and which has run several uncritical interviews with racist agitators outside the homes of people seeking asylum has just put on a hot dog suit

Water off a duck’s back

Remember all my mad book drama? (If not, buy me a pint and I'll sing you the ballad of the dodgy ex-publisher...) Well, I'm absolutely delighted to say it's over! An enormous thanks to my wonderful new publisher @manchesterup.bsky.social Queer As Folklore will be back in the wild! 🧜🏼‍♂️

Isn’t social media a wonderful thing 🫠

Antifa knows .. It’s “Fuck Ice” not “Anti-Ice”,idiot

ITV News leading with “foreign criminals bring deported” and Farage’s views that paracetamol in pregnancy science isn’t settled. The news agenda in this country is an absolute constant trash fire

This is the fishiest shit I've ever seen. We're supposed to believe the shooter wrote "Anti-ICE" in pen on a bullet and then shot detainees but not ICE officers?

If you're still saying 'Vote Labour or we'll get Reform' at this point, you're just a fucking dickhead. If you're accepting this low a bar, which a worm couldn't slide under, you're a collaborator. Labour needs to be opposed every bit as much as Reform or the Tories.

look up why Erikkka Kirk isn’t allowed in Romania. in 2008 Erika Kirk, then known as Erika Frantzve, was involved with an org in Romania called “Children’s Relief International” that was allegedly trafficking children.

Girls, Gays and Theys, Ive written a poem. Its my first one in years and the first time in a decade that wasnt a haiku, so please be nice. Its on a topic close to my heart. I hope you enjoy. Its titled when will we be safe?

Today I discovered that it’s no longer shorts weather in Scotland 😭
