Teenage boys get non custodial sentence for rape, but cheer yourself up by knowing that trans men and women who just want to go to the toilet have been further dehumanised and alienated www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

if you're cis and you are asked by your management to police bathrooms, "can you confirm in writing that you are ordering me to approach customers to discuss their sex?" is an email no manager wants to reply to

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

1/ Emily has spent more than half of her life living as who she is. She has always been well aware of who she is. So I ensured that she was raised and loved by me for exactly who she is because let’s be honest if I didn’t that would make me her 1st bully and I would be loving the wrong kid.

Well, I collected my copy of Kym Deyn’s ‘ *F* olkish at Charlie Byrne’s this morning and am happy to report that it’s XLNT.

A lot of allies asking what they can do. This is one thing.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

Joanne Rowling's fellow traveller Kellie-Jay Keen is speaking at Tommy Robinson's rally tomorrow. Transphobia is the engine that pulls the train of fascism.

Billboards at tram stations “now promote the Rijksmuseum, the national museum of the Netherlands, and a piano concert. Until last week it was chicken nuggets, SUVs and low-budget holidays.” Good. If you desperately need a hamburger/wankpanzer you know where to get it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Would be good if performers, musicians, writers, and other creative workers insisted on organisers not using genAI for advertising festivals, shows and events they're taking part in, in solidarity with visual artists, because it's absolutely everywhere at the moment. We need to stick together!

Happy 100th birthday to David Attenborough, who once said: “To restore stability to our planet, we must restore its biodiversity, the very thing we have removed. It is the only way out of the crisis we ourselves have created. We must rewild the world.” We couldn't agree more! #AttenboroughAt100

Councils controlled by Reform. This isn’t a majority. This is a minority of roundabout painting racists who will be quitting in their droves in coming weeks.

I'm only a small fish in the Bluesky pond. Could someone get somebody with serious numbers to take up the cudgels for Helen Ogbu. This is just a shameful injustice. I

It's disgraceful that Helen Ogbu, currently lying third in the polls for the Galway West by-election, hasn't been selected for the RTE live debate which contains six candidates. In fact it's downright sinister and makes RTE look like they're attempting to sway the course of the election. No excuse.

Not for nothing does he start out by trying to shuffle off responsibility on the muse.

Internet rules dictate that whenever you see the Tom Holland Umbrella video, you have to share it. I'm just following the rules.

Now, your individual forget-me-not has got no smell at all. But when they’ve got three banks like this in your little neglected front garden, they give off waves of perfume in the sun and it’s gorgeous. A sweet, pretty scent just like you’d expect from sweet, pretty flowers.

Can't wait to see how Labour's strategy of showing open contempt for the people who voted for them while desperately sucking up to people who'll never vote for them in a million years works out.

Do we think Brogans Plastering hate people in wheelchairs or others who need a clear footpath to get from A-B. Plenty of road there behind, just pure inconsiderate illegal parking. Thankfully their number is on the van, I'm sure they'll be down to move it any second. #SpeirGorm #ShitParking

Male transphobes lose all sense of reality when you remind them that they are literally the greatest threat to women on the planet. No one rapes, murders and assaults women more than cis gendered males.

I am undoing about 30 stitches back to an unrecoverable error in a tiny twisted rib. It’s better than doing a Full Frog, but not by very much.
