Funny the things that pop up when you look on Spotify for "Happy Hour."

Americans are slipping into literal nonsense. For years, their corruption of "I couldn't care less" (which means something) into "I could care less" (which means the opposite of their intent) has boiled my piss whenever I hear it, but I'm seeing something worse recently. 1/2

There is a concerted, sustained attack against disabled people by the media and government. Both here in the UK and elsewhere. However, there is no recourse for their blatant misinformation and disinformation. There are no consequences. They can lie, then lie some more, and get away with it all.

Farewell then Tim Davie. Under his watch the BBC whitewashed genocide, had the BBC News website resembling a “migrant crime” X account, boosted trans hate and the right wing STILL hate him. Quite an achievement

Honestly, the BBC* can fuck right off. Its coverage of the left has been execrable, from caricaturing Corbyn as a Russian on what's supposed to be their "flagship news show", to their wall to wall disgusting coverage of trans issues. I hope they take the Guardian with them. *current affairs dept

The 3 hr coach journey has begun and loud, posh dumb girl has been put on "Display" mode. Every cliche you can imagine. She's louder than my headphones can get. I can't block it out. I need to sedate myself. This is pure horror. Pray for us all.

A reminder that the BBC have been progressively more and more trans-hostile over the last 8 years. For ‘gender critical’ transphobes to claim the BBC has been ‘captured’ is 💯 gaslighting and just telling on themselves! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22We%2...

labour are hard right economically. labour are far right socially. labour have murdered multiple trans kids since they came to power. labour think a dead child is better than a trans child. i like @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social as a person but she's completely deluded about the party she's in.

BBCNews has been a hot trash fire for decades. Promoting hate. Perpetuating scams. Forcing referendums and election results. And *this* shames them? They've been lying useless bastards my whole life, but they lie about the far right and *that* causes a resignation? www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd...

In a Spoons and it's plastic glasses only, what with it being Remembrance Sunday. Always kicking off around here on Remembrance Sunday. Make London make sense.

So a transphobe is threatening @northwestbylines.co.uk with defamation over this 100% accurate and factual piece of Journalism. Support us by sharing it far and wide 🏳️‍⚧️ northwestbylines.co.uk/news/equalit...

No. We know exactly what your "life-changing policies" are. Trans eradication. Eugenicist starving of disabled people. Racist attitudes to immigrants and refugees. Cutting overseas aid to kill queer folk. Tax the poor but never the rich. I could go on

Jimmy Carr said unironically that he considers Glinner "brave." That must mean that *he himself* has awful opinions for which his friends and family* would abandon him, but he is too cowardly to express them. How's that Riyadh money feeling now, eh, Jimmy? *should he, against all odds, have any.

"...a biological male who identifies as a woman." That's how they describe her. Because the BBC no longer calls anybody a "trans woman." Oh no. That wouldn't be challenging the status quo, would it? Wassamatter? Too "challenging" for ya? #FuckBBCnews #EndTheBBC #... #andSaltTheEarth

The Labour Right have admitted that #ItWasAScam and have crowed about how successful it was. However, it was obvious, grubby and venal, and it will not work again. So, in a sense, that horrific tenure served us all as an education on the foul intentions and cheap tactics of the UK press.

Labour were broken a long time ago. Time to replace them with a party that actually represents everyone - not just the billionaires. A party that rejects Reform - rather than copies them. Time to make hope normal again. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Feels important to stress that Phillipson not conceding any knowledge of American politics has nothing to do with Zohran Mamdani's victory as a Democratic Socialist – Democrats of all stripes cleaned up across the board on Tuesday. It's because Labour don't want to piss off Trump, i.e. cowardice.

What’s happened here is that, by sticking to their guns and refusing to be intimidated and shitehoused, the club and police have thankfully prevented Parliament and the press inciting rioting and running battles in the streets of a major city.

I won’t lie, I am pleased to see all of these clowns very publicly demonstrating they are bullshit artists and shitehawks in ways where nobody needs to tell the public that they are being bullshat and insulted. Are there less potentially disastrous ways they could do this, however.

Shit-stirring hate from professional shitehouses, reported in a passive handbag-clenching middle-class tone, quoted below. Does anybody actually believe this? I personally don't see anybody purchasing a "zioness" t-shirt with anything but malice.

Fantastic little vignette about Glinner from today's @vittles.bsky.social newsletter (I highly recommend subscribing btw, if you're in any way interested in food).

Im staggered that Liz Kendall wasn't made Education Secretary seeing as, what with her having once gone out with Greg Davies (who famously used to be a teacher), she is the closest thing to being qualified that Labour has. 1/2

#BBCNews has *always* been broken at a class level, and surrounding any and all marginalised identities. If you're saying, "yeah, but David Attenborough, though" then you're part of the problem. The damage the BBC has inflicted to the UK and the world is incalculable. #EndTheBBC

In this piece, admitting the BBC has broken its impartiality rules re. trans people, the BBC further breaks its impartiality rules by changing a quote saying "trans identity" to "trans ideology".

The BBC is rushing this hit job out the door. Remember, the licence fee means we are obliged, under threat of criminal sanction, to pay for its racism. Screw the BBC.

Please can Sensibles stop talking about Labour as being part of a 'left bloc' when they are quite clearly & even say so themselves part of a 'right bloc'

Why do my time-passing free phone games keep bombarding me with adverts for things I will never buy in a million years? Its an irritant and a waste of their money, and also, it turns out that the play doh super slice cake playset isn't that well made anyway.

It is poor form to speak accurately of the dead. However, fuck form. Cheney was a monster, and I wish there were a Hell for him. ...and Thatcher. #FuckCheney

good morning bluesky friends ❤️

What you see here is - a transphobic demo in a public place - a trans journalist is reporting on it, quietly taking notes - the organisers involve the police because they believe the presence of any trans person is a violation of their rights somehow It says EVERYTHING about these bigots

It's wild to me that we continue with the fallacy that it's Labour Vs Reform when every thing on this list applies to Labour too. But there is actually an alternative. An alternative who are now beating Labour in the polls! Go Green 💚 join.greenparty.org.uk

Brianna Ghey was not murdered in cold blood by a phone. Or a social media app. She was murdered in cold blood with knives plunged into her 28 times by two 15-year-olds fed a constant stream of hate and dehumanization by UK corporate media and the UK government.

Wolfing down a bowl of 'Spoons Shawarma topped chips so people will think the tears are from the hot sauce.

Just overheard somebody unironically say that voters in Caerphilly didn't vote Reform because they are too thick to vote for anything resembling a Tory. Mate, ten minutes ago, you were harping on about the £5 saving you made by stopping over for an hour and a half in Bristol Parkway.

#FuckLabour, indeed. There is no reining in of benefits necessary when the UK is guilty of breaching the human rights of each and every disabled citizen with its illegally punitive benefits system. But then, we have a shockingly low immigration rate. The lies the fash will tell to keep power.

"the COVID pandemic really was this moment in time where we could have changed the course of history for the better," misses the fact that it is *still* happening and only "lockdowns" have ended, as capitalism showed its arse as a concept and everybody realised how close to fascism we always were.

Hey, Goodwin, you pasty fucker. Is it "small boats," or is it "mass immigration"? The *other* racists are insisting that it's thousands of tiny gangs weedling past our mighty borders. You might want to get your story aligned with theirs, or it could sound like you're making all this shit up.

Woohoo! Queer as Folklore has won Best Non Fiction at the British Fantasy Awards!

We are already helping several employees sue employers for enforcing the EHRC Interim Guidance, which *we think* is unlawful. Should the High Court agree, we plan to make available in generic form, for free, and in a usable state, all the legal materials a trans employee needs to sue their employer.

"Text back this, Trev."

Dale a tu cuerpo alegría, McAnena Eh, McAnena (¡Ay!) There's not a one of these witnesses for the defence escaping with a shred of dignity, is there?

• Narrated the full range of Chuck Tingle audio books. • Refuses to call the six counties "Northern Ireland" and is often found singing "Come Out Ye Black and Tans," when tipsy. • Taught Cilla Black the whole "Oxo cube on an orange" thing. • Harvests the souls of local wildlife. • Eats chalk.

Hate Harris - who runs the anti-trans hate-group LGB Alliance, openly deadnaming a trans woman in a public court. No trans person can expect a fair hearing in a UK court. We will be harassed, dehumanised, deadnamed - and the state will facilitate it. We cannot let this stand. @tacc.org.uk

1. Mary trademarked her name which means there can only ever be one Mary Berry and all others are put to the sword 2. Mary calls her vagina Enid 3. She shot a man in 1993, just to watch him die 4. Mary released Casserolé (olé olé) a dance hit in the summer of 1983 5. She voiced Pingu over 3 seasons

"It felt tinged with violence," and "he now owns your image," are two of the most hysterical attempts to paint victimhood I have ever heard, and i spent decades with an abusive, delusional narcissist. TERFs have nothing but cruelty and hate within them.

Actor Alan Cumming says trans people are ‘vilified’ to distract from politicians’ ‘screwing up’ “We make it all about them, when actually it isn't about them. They are such a tiny part of our population and they are a population that we should respect and, in this case, celebrate. “

When @zackpolanski.bsky.social was elected leader of the Green Party, he said: "We’re not here just to be disappointed by Labour. We’re here to replace you." Among voters under 50, its already happening! 🥳💚

Danny Tommo, the fascist organiser, instigator of last year's riots beginning in Southport, and good friend of Tommy Robinson got a warm welcome from local antifascists in Southampton today.
