reading this depressing judgement, it’s impossible to ignore the unbelievable role of, “’general chatter’, ’rumblings’, ‘rumours’, and”, QUOTE “‘intelligence’”, in the gestation of the conspiracy against Rose Henderson by her colleagues A conspiracy which the tribunal appears to happily join in?

Imagine doing a PhD in electricity, just so you knew how to blow up nuclear power plants and heavy water-producing facilities. “I learned from them very early that what one does with Nazis is kill them... I am not a pacifist.” A profile in absolute courage.

some people really know how to live

trans girl: i'm trans, i'll be starting transition soon several dozen cis women: cool! i've got this old eyeliner which i don't wear because it looks like shit. also i had conjunctivitis. do you want it

trans woman: at last! my time machine worked! here, in the ancient world, free of the modern curse of transphobia, i shall accept my due reverence as a chosen one, a prophetess and priestess of the great goddess, Inanna, who r- guys leaning out of chariot rumbling past: HEY FAGGOT NICE DRESS FAGGOT

I am asking Donald Trump to eliminate both New York and Berlin

honestly nothing makes me more upset than this shit

Not enough people give those Somali pirates in the early 2010s enough credit for absolutely nailing it with their theory of the twenty-first century...

Incredibly important new study from Cal Horton @fiercemum.bsky.social - the first to look at England's post-Cass child/adolescent gender clinics. Dr Horton found patients and families are being actively harmed, with one young person describing appointments as "the worst thing I’ve ever experienced”.

Please stop posting stuff I don’t like. In the future try to do posts that I would enjoy

(living an unexamined life) yaaaaaay haha yay wheeeeee

Can’t go wrong reading Theweleit’s Male Fantasies at the moment, we’re witnessing ‘This Whole Thing Smacks Of Gender’ made manifest

Thucydides did not write the Melian Dialogue for people to forget Athens lost the Peloponnesian War.

honestly nobody told me that it was ofcom who are supposed to enforce the online safety act and i think a lot of trouble could have been avoided if someone had let, for example, the people who run bluesky know just what sort of an organisation that is

neoconservative adhd girlie is such a vibe

The Free Speech Union commissioned a "security" report on us, so we tested their security. Turns out - it sucks. We've now published the names of everyone who has donated to a FSU fundraiser, along with how much they gave and to which campaign. www.transbashback.com/fsu.html xoxo BASH BACK

if it’s you reading this i’m sorry but “is anime so much as tangentially involved in the visual language of this thing” remains the most powerful “this is not a place of honour” sign on this website by a shockingly considerable margin

lol i personally would not use a labeller with an anime avatar

“banning abuse would ban christian practices”

merely expressing Christian beliefs on sexuality and gender in prayer and pastoral conversations constitutes conversion therapy and should be outlawed

i’d also like to point out how easy it seems to be to forget that the us president is a reality tv host who sends around unmarked vans to lock up people who criticise israel

Today is the last day that you can repost this image

Make sure everyone remembers to put their old ears under their pillows tonight to claim a pair of new ones

posh people, you mean that that journalism is rife with the middle classes

at some point we are going to have to reckon with the fact that averting dictatorial rule by a genocidal petty crook will mean handing over the reins of power to these people

A good omen.

i would extend recent analyses discussing Political Events as the product of a collapse in shame and the symbolic order to argue that the main trend in culture at large for over ten years now has been the growing division between those who do and do not have shame

philosophers always want to reduce the world to fundamental physics but they need to stop at chemistry. Past that is pervert stuff

people talk about Learning like it’s really hard but actually learning is as easy as breathing. you are constantly learning. you don’t have a choice. how do you think I know who Bari Weiss is

I do highly recommend that curious parties who just want a laugh scroll rapidly to the bottom - where the dubious issue has been reprinted in full - in order to enjoy such titular delights as “Defending the Sword of Finality”, and two separate articles, by different authors, titled in latin

do you know how much it sucks understanding that you will never, ever, see, what Tirana really looked like at the delirious height of the insanity of the Enver Hoxha years? to have climbed the pyramid and to know that it is now buried in concrete? and then of all places AMERICA does this?

this fucking rules so hard man

the banning of tiktok is another painful reminder to buy physical copies of your media. i have dozens of dvds of an ai voice reading reddit comments over unrelated minecraft footage.

As I was saying about political revolutions: the vast majority of the voting public now has no idea that the primary voice with the ear of government in this country now, explicitly, claims that transition for ANYONE should be “reth[ought]”

"this is a failed model - just look at all the trans people still out there, alive without my consent" - maya, probably

There are obviously more nuanced ways to talk about this, many of them, but nuance is the gap into which a crowbar is inevitably inserted, through which compromise with bigots is sought, over and over, until there is nothing left of the truth at all, and no nuance left over, either. So.

witnessing an interstellar catastrophe and then enthusiastically reporting that in other news you had also just spotted an enormous cloud of dust where you thought there might have been a planet, immediately afterwards, has a real 2025 energy

”open your eyes people. the president only wants you to know about trafficking children to Sex Island so that he and the rest of the aristocracy could have sex with them because he DOESN’T want you to know about the…”

the assassination of ordinary private life by the weirdo hilary cass

I like how both Ulrich and Törless, the protagonist of Musil's other novel, have this same 'childhood wish': is there anything you're trying to tell us

the national broadcaster keeps taking parenthetical asides to soliloquise that I’m “a biological male who identifies as a woman” when it has already said “trans woman” that’s Fidesz shit, so i infer the UK’s lack of a constitution merely places political revolutions outside parliamentary politics

Universal Grammar is race science shit. "America's favorite anarchist" is a fed, as proven by him being alive for so long after supposedly "leaving" the fed gang after being highly placed within it.

“One can avoid humiliations like this simply by spending 5 seconds thinking through the implications of one's views” such a shame, then, that he had to be born british

oh like they did with HRT for 25+ years and no one noticed or cared? that’s wild

like everybody should be able to acknowledge: even though 90% of discourse ABOUT working class politics comes from universities it is a *minority* of people writing who go through that system and come out with even good sense how many people with PhDs on Gramsci have switched that insight on here

Reposting the sign for my own benefit

The Pacific spiny lumpsucker (Eumicrotremus orbis) answers the question: "What if tiny fish, but also suction cup?" You can see that their little fins aren't really big enough for their tiny round bodies. They've adapted to strong currents by turning pelvic fins into a biological suction cup.
