I don't think you understand, Tony Blair is the most qualified person to lead Gaza because he is the only candidate responsible for more deaths in the Middle East than Netanyahu x

Safety Advice: I keep seeing young trans people on social media talking about therapists disrespecting their pronouns and parents telling them that the therapist has a right to their beliefs. I want to be clear: you have a right to the therapy room being a safe supportive space for YOUR growth.

Hi Lewis, I'm in poverty. A paid-up member of the underclass from one of the most deprived parts of one of the most deprived wards in the country. How will Digital ID help me? For voting? I already have a free voter ID. For most other things, a letter from HMRC or my bank card works as ID.

Got my performance review.

This is freaking brilliant and made me laugh aloud even though the world outside is a horrifying hellscape. Give it a read.

I'm learning.

Tonight, I shall be mostly making a batch of caponata...

Petition: Ban all forms of conversion therapy petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

I have come to the conclusion the EHRC guidance on single sex spaces should not even come to Parliament. It is misleading and has caused distress for my trans constituents. I urge @bphillipsonMP to reject it on grounds of practicality and human rights. sianberry.org.uk/publications/l…

I saw a financial analysis paper today, speculating about reasons why AI productivity gains were not yet showing up in the figures 🤣

Seems topical once again (www.smbc-comics.com/comic/autism...)

Starmer has been looking really hard for his "poll tax"... It appears that he's found it

They've lost the 9yos

Opinions are like arseholes: everyone has several of them.

Against my better instincts, I have written some notes on how human probability judgements work and what you should expect from surveys that ask people to guess what proportion of the population is transgender. I hope never to speak of this matter again

Lib Dems: We have 12x Reform's MPs, can we have the same coverage? BBC: But Reform has 2x your poll rating. If there were an election tomorrow, they'd be running the country. Lib Dems: So you're putting their people and policies under scrutiny, right? BBC: Lib Dems: Right?

Fuck your app. I want to be able to visit your website and do everything I need to do there. Apps are for specific functions, the way computer programs used to be.

FB gave me a diy video of an alternative locking mechanism, and all I can hear in my head is "Close the Fucking Gate!"...

BREAKING: The police have confirmed they won't be charging any of the violent far-right rioters with terrorism because they only do that for grandmas in wheelchairs who hold up signs they don't like ♥️

Make a band singular: The Dead Kennedy

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

Bluesky moderation is absolutely out of fucking control right now just absolutely arbitrary politically motivated suspensions and bans. No explanations. No adherence to terms of service. It’s literally impossible to know what we are and aren’t allowed to say.

The sperm analogy was obvious, I guess... But why does it feel like the opposite of conception? A bunch of the little guys struggling to get out of the egg, while more and more pile in...

So ... The St. George's flag is an immigrant that arrived on boats and cost the taxpayers money...

It was the Dunning of tymes. It was the Kruger of tymes.

My mum keeps this in the kitchen, but I decided to move it. So far, she hasn’t noticed.

When people say "if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear." the correct response is: "I need privacy, not because my actions are questionable, but because your judgement and intentions are."

Given that "sex" is a cluster property, yes it's daft to say it's observed. You observe various of the properties which contribute to a categorization of sex, can't observe sex itself as it's not a singular thing. Mostly it will be a quick glance at genitals, which could lead to error.

A man on the streets of the UK is asked about the “problem of immigration” and dismantles talking points with ease.

I am writing about this today. Transphobe logic is that trans people only have rights *until* they come into conflict with a cis person. And not just a cis person's legally defined rights, but a cis person's comfort or emotions (which are discretionary and not legally protected).

Big, if true...

Tired as we were, this provoked some amusement...

I want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset. In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia. In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

In a sane, normal country, Lucy Connolly would be treated as a contemptible extremist. Not in Britain. But then this is no longer a sane, normal country. Britain has lost its moral bearings My @heraldscotland.bsky.social column www.heraldscotland.com/politics/vie...
