Gen A.I. barons want us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe and broadwaye to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop writinge. Thei want to build hell and have us pay for it.

It is very easy to read statements like this as a joke. This is not a joke. We have proven with AI, completely by accident, what knowledgeable people have been saying for decades: the environment that rich people live in gives them a very specific personality disorder.

Next week's film watchalong is 'Fire Island' and we'll be using the #QueerRomanceWeek tag all week to share our queer romance watches. Anyone can join in that wants to! Share some queer joy on the timeline :)

Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?

Why the stramash about animals on #banknotes? Scotland's money has a braw blend of craiturs on ane side, a notable Scottish men and women on the other. We celebrate wir beautiful natural world, and the sky hasna fallen on wir heids #keepScotlandTheBrand www.timorousbeasties.com/story/illust...

ITV have generally refused to indulge in anti trans nonsense and have platformed trans people more than the others. Excellent to see that continue.

if YOU are doing Trans Rights Readathon (I am, more info next week) or simply looking to read more fun things with trans people in, here's a reminder my books exist and an excuse to shout out some books I really enjoyed. Thread ⤵️ #TransRightsReadathon #trr26

Everyone deserves housing. Everyone deserves healthcare. Everyone deserves food, water and clean air. These are not things you should have to “earn”. Your ability to survive should not be based on economic output. Help people meet their basic needs & watch the world change.

This whole thread nails it

Apart from the moral repugnance, this is so revealing of how ignorant conservatives are about poverty. Poor people have to think about money ALL THE TIME. They worry constantly about what everything costs, how to substitute one purchase for another, what bill can be put off until payday, etc.

Time to watch The Philadelphia Story. I have never seen this one before #RomComWeek

I'm going to be doing a talk about Byron and about Thomas Wildman's manipulation of his legacy in a few weeks. Come and learn about the lies, the disgruntled guests and the myths. Also, come hear me talk about the 'how' of researching lies! www.thebyronsociety.com/events/lies-...

A new shop drop from Meg and Nibs - get these handmade pieces before they're gone! ✨ www.peculiarityshop.com

Just a little reminder for our #RomComWeek watch tomorrow, it's 7pm British time and we're watching The Philadelphia Story. Just a reminder that the clocks HAVE NOT gone back in the UK so the watchalong and class will be at a different time than usual for the Americans!

1. A new NHS England Review excluded 97% of all trans care studies to conclude that trans youth care doesn't work. It explicitly violates several guidelines around reviewing literature, and appears to be politics masquerading as (shoddy) science. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind. It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty. Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face. Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

"Leading vaccinologist Helen Petousis-Harris says there's not enough awareness of the impact of COVID-19 on overall health." "What many people don't realise is that getting COVID repeatedly is not like building immunity, it's more like accumulating damage," she says. Source: archive.md/Qsv13

Meet Penelope and Little Penelope Gloom-Wilder the Flower Spirits. I designed and hand-sewed them, and I hand-embroidered their flowers and markings. Many centuries ago, Penelope became of two minds about a certain topic, and she decided to become two people. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

Awful and important, especially in a society where vicious bigotry against visibly trans people is becoming more and more normalized (and even encouraged):

I know I’ve got some Labour local gov’t types following me, so I want to say this clearly so that you can share it internally as appropriate: I will never again vote Labour while these policies, or Wes Streeting, are in place. I will not vote Labour at any level because of this.

Love to Glasgow tonight ❤️ please dig out some decent ffp2 masks if you're going to be in the centre for the next week (if you're not already masking). That amount of smoke will be causing breathing problems in healthy people, as well as babies, older people and those with respiratory conditions.

This is just terrifying. Puberty is a nightmare for almost everyone, it can be literally murder for trans kids. This is pure evil to override gillick competency and medical experts to punish queer kids

THIS. If you’re in central Glasgow tonight please close your windows; if you have to be out please wear the best mask you have available. If you can smell it, you’re at risk.

Using this international women's day as an excuse to shout about some of my favorite books authored by some amazing women, all of whom absolutely deserve more attention on their work. Books & authors mentioned below 🧵

Tomorrow Wes Streeting will remove trans minors ability to access, and doctors to prescribe, cross-sex hormones. Try as it might Labour will never eradicate trans people. They cannot, and should not, change who they are. All Labour will do is make trans lives harder - with more harm and more death.

Meet my newest creations: the Gloom-Wilders. I designed and hand-sewed them, and I hand-embroidered all their flowers, stars, and markings. They're a family of spirits who live in a haunted woodland (haunted because they live there). jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

A sample poem from my forthcoming @ninearchespress.bsky.social collection and a blog post. Something about time, booksellers and folklore 💚

Wildflowers love dead people.

“A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue." A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.

If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!

Feminists for ages: women should not be defined by their biology. Terfs: I hope you can demonstrate that you've got large gamete pathways if you're thinking of coming in here.

Dear Shabana, Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

You know what would have helped with this sudden isolation we now find ourselves in? Not leaving the damned EU. For fuck’s sake.

Thanks to everyone for their generosity in supporting our Goths for Breakfast day! We raised £2250 for Magic Breakfast! Receipts below (unfortunately for ticket tailor buys I had to download my stripe statement and do some maths so it's a bit less clear but all there!)
