My bf just saw the Erika Kirk US Air Force Academy shiz on TikTok & was like ‘god, I thought that was real but it’s AI… no wait… is it? This is a verified account but-?’ so I googled; the Independent began their story ‘she has never watched the assassination video & never will’. This is hell itself

Sorry I’ve been in bed all day what dafurq

One of the things that my brain likes to pull outta the files at random when I’m trying to fall sleep is ‘a band you haven’t thought about or heard anyone mention in at least 15 years’. Tonight I got MONDO GENERATOR

so the only ones left will be the ones appointed by corrupt prime ministers.

This puts the UK on the same level as Hungary Starmer and Streeting are even worse than Thatcher, as she at least had the flimsy excuse of having lived in a time of ignorance. #UK #TransGenocide #TERFisland #NHS #Transphobia

Once on a panel for a professional conference, someone asked me if technology gives me hope for access. I said let’s get ramps on every building first, and the tech bro manager was PISSED. People want to believe that they invented the answer to systemic issues…without understanding the issues.

I haven’t seen this but jfccc, not least because my God, if you’re on benefits YOU FKIN KNOW THIS, IT’LL BE THE FIRST THING THAT POPS INTO YOUR HEAD WHEN YOU’RE BEREAVED IRL, THANKS CONSTANT DWP TORTURETRAUMASTRESS

mind if I....𝒀𝑬𝑳𝑳

oh cool, we're at the "I have this knot of anxiety in my chest which I can't do anything about because it's entirely due to the overall geopolitical situation" stage again, nice, happy Monday everyone

I recall a much less chill bunny in a bucket. (Artiebunny 2009-2017: a noble warrior, furious to have been trapped in the form of a fuzzy wabbit)

And they told us it was JCorbz who was going to send us back there

Stephan you shoulda been in my AS philosophy class literally 20 years ago back when we were chatting this shit about robots; from behind a majestic emo fringe, usually silent or absent me wondered ‘can it knowingly choose to kill itself?’ and absolutely shooketh the room

OMG I have MADE IT I am ON MY FIRST LIST and like SURE but OF ALL THE THINGS TO BE MAD AT ME FOR and ON VALENTINE’S DAY

Fantastic 🧵 about willful media illiteracy in service of seeing all fiction as inherently didactic

*carefree chortle* so where did you all get treated like a punching bag as a teen by people very mostly double your age upwards

I am a bunny in headlights from a family of dragons, it is wacky times

Friends fear she’s buying outfits she saw on fictional Japanese teenage boys again

I’m a Brit but £2251 is more than 2 months pay I would SOB

I served skunt

More than 86,000 women have now signed the Not In Our Name letter to say that trans exclusion is not what we want and should not be done on our behalf. If you’re a woman who believes in dignity, fairness and standing alongside our trans+ siblings, add your name: notinourname.org.uk

I technically just finished #Persona4 for the first time, only I categorically did not, as I couldn’t find the fkin fish to give to the nice old man to grant me BBFdom with the fox, which was, to my understanding, the whole point of the entire 80+ hour game

Same problem in movies and TV. They want big, fast cash over properties with a lower opener but a steady, long tail

A new report and survey of trans people reports that 99% of them have had their mental health negatively affected by the barrage of anti trans stories in the UK media. 64% avoided medical care due to discrimination. This is a crisis. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

How I arrived on Bluesky

Today I talked about something I love and know a lot about with someone on here, and I didn’t try and hedge or discredit myself, and we had a good and nice conversation, and that is a big deal to me and I feel good and nice about it

Just seen episode 3 of #LordOfTheFlies. Jesus Christ, this one put me through the wringer. Simon is my favourite character and Ike Talbut did him such justice. The things he can convey with just his eyes, omg. Amazing, brutal, awful episode. How this is still only rated 6.7 on IMDB is beyond me

Hayley Williams in 2017

The gods of #Persona4 are now punishing me for neglecting all my other relationships in pursuit of being BFFs with the fox by resolutely refusing to spawn this giant-ass sea fish I have been tasked with catching in order to realise my goals

I wish people would come to understand transphobia as systemic, structural, and pervasive so we could stop treating transphobia as explicitly limited to people saying "I hate trans people" and accept the way our society conditions us all to dismiss, diminish, and dehumanize trans people.

To give this some scale: The Greens now comfortably have more members than the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats do... COMBINED. Hope is Here. And it's here to stay. Join Us: join.greenparty.org.uk

Well, yes, trans people are getting drugs; yes, from entirely unregulated sources; yes, without counselling; yes, without blood tests; yes, they are self-administering; yes, without clinical oversight; yes, risking long term harm; yes, it is highly suboptimal. What did you think would happen?

I keep thinking (and indeed saying) ‘this is not the future I thought we would get’ about, you know, the horrors, but now I’m thinking (and posting) it about the Greens polling SECOND!!! which is… a nice big deep breath of fresh air 😊

Omg I just said ‘big bag (for life) of (later recycled) cans with the lads’ about the latest Green polling and then this came up in my feed 🙏💚

Fkin yes mate big bag (for life) of (later recycled) cans with the lads

People expected to live forever in limbo, forever as outsiders, and they will still be asked: “Why won’t you just integrate?”

Just finished ‘Strangers’ by Belle Burden and ALEXA PLAY ‘THE GUY WHO LEAVES’ BY QUEEN ALANIS MORISSETTE AND CRANK THE FUCKING VOLUME

I cannot stare at the heck rectangle (hecktangle?) any longer lads 📱🚮👋

Meanwhile

My beloved @sugarmillstoke.bsky.social forever and ever

The west once again utterly baffled that after sending missiles drones and bombs in a fit of pique that the target didn’t simply lie there and take it. We had no way of knowing they would fight back or strike at the military bases we have completely surrounded them with. That was an unknown unknown.

I do not get these ‘want to opt out of mothers/fathers/whatever day communications?’ emails. Surely this email has done exactly what the subsequent one would have anyway? You’ve just reminded the person of the whatever a few days earlier? Am I missing something here (aside from a father HAYOOO)

Oh it turns out you’re not actually entitled to both feel and be 100% protected and exempt wherever you choose to put yourself just because white and money? Oh no no wayyy

Labour is trying to create a permanent underclass who can be treated like dirt and live in permanent bureaucratic limbo. As Tony Benn said. The way they treat people like this is the way they would treat all of us if they could get away with it.

People really do not want to talk about the reality of the Covid pandemic being a test we failed in regards to eugenics and Necro politics being normalized and centralized as facets of governmental response to everything from climate, pandemics to war. This shift was a direct shift towards fascism

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy

As someone without - and who has never had any desire to have - my own children, I strongly think and feel this. Staggers me how many parents don’t.

We are so far beyond the notion of ‘worst timeline’ now, I am utterly bereft of words
