They didn't want to live in a retirement home. So these women started their own housing collective in Montreal. Maison des RebElles is a chosen family of 22 women – mostly gay, some allies – that's been flourishing for more than 30 years. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

It's obvious to point out attacks against Muslims get ignored - but still needs repeatedly calling out. An Antisemitic attack should be reported and action taken. But where is the same media outrage, cobra meetings and calling of national emergency when 5 Muslims are attacked?

This cartoon by Naked Pastor is SO GOOD. Sums up what I’ve been saying for ages about what happens when you start gatekeeping womanhood (and spoiler alert it’s the opposite of feminism).
Two doors - the ‘male’ entrance is wide and square like a door. The ‘woman’ entrance is a cutout of a very thin long haired woman in heels.

Totally this. The rightwing hate “journalists” are spinning Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man as Islamist sectarianism.
Salma Yaqoob @SalmaYaqoob
Almost feel sorry for the haters who are trying to spin Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man is evidence of Islamist sectarianism
In fact it's evidence of genuine tolerance, rejection of superficial identity politics and ability to prioritise tackling common concerns of cost of living, protecting public services and rejecting war mongering.
And the promotion of mutual respect and individual freedoms.
The coming together of people is terrifying for the ruling elites.

This is beyond silly. Neither I, nor anybody on my team, ever met, communicated with or invited Jeffrey Epstein to anything. https://x.com/girlslasttourr/girlslasttourrr/status/2018093016548778327

Rhys Kimmitt "the tickets are on their way to Peggy's office. Please deal with Lila to arrange pickup"
CC Jeffrey Epstein "Rhys please deal with Jeffrey Epstein's assistant [redacted] She will send a messenger to pick up his two dinner tickets. Thanks so much! xoxo Peggy"To Jeffrey Epstein Ryhs Kimmitt Marisa Frank and Lila Walker from Peggy 
"To whom this may concern Rhys...what was not clear?"
"I was very explicit with my staff and you about TWO tickets for the DINNER for Jeffrey Epstein. What genius filled the ticket order? Why wasn't his name on the DINNER list at the door? What genius thought my friend would not have a plus one when we ordered TWO tickets. What robot at the door would not let him in? This has ruined what was a perfect everning for all of us. I am incredibly emarabassed by the rigid behavior of some child minded door guard. Jeffrey is a captain of international finance and a close personal friend of mine. I know this was not done on purpose but it still is terribly upsetting. Please find out who did this and send an apology note. Thank you so much. Peggy. Jeffrey...of all nights, I left my two phones home, I was actually looking for you all night, I was with Soon-Yi and she thought you were having dinner with her husband. I am so very sorry. What a screw up.

Call to action! ❤️ Let’s challenge the harmful misgendering of trans people in BBC/media reporting — join this powerful campaign led by @tacc.org.uk Full details and campaign resources here: tacc.org.uk/2026/01/02/e...
The Trans Advocacy and Complaints Collective (TACC) recently submitted a formal complaint to the BBC and sent letters to the Women and Equalities Committee, the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, and the Minister for Women and Equalities, Bridget Phillipson MP. Our letters set out the pattern of reporting that repeatedly marginalises trans people, the use of demeaning language such as the phrase “biological male who identifies as a woman,” and the real distress this causes in our community. We have asked the relevant parliamentary bodies and ministers to scrutinise the BBC’s editorial practice and to hold it to account.

This is a direct call to action. If you care about dignity, accuracy, and safety for trans people, please take the three steps below now.

What we are asking you to do

Email your MP using our template. We have prepared an MP email template that clearly explains the problem and asks your MP to demand that the BBC and the Government act. Doing this en masse will show Parliament and the BBC that this is not an isolated complaint. Key points to include are: that the BBC is publicly funded, that its own style guidance asks journalists to use people’s preferred terms and pronouns, that repeated use of phrases like “biological male” causes harm and may breach the Equality Act 2010, and ask your MP to press the BBC Board, the WEC, and DCMS for action.
Sign and share our open letter petition defining “biological sex” language as slurs in media coverage. We are running an open letter petition that asks editors to treat phrases that reduce trans people to “biological” labels as harmful and to adopt editorial policies that prohibit such usage in routine reporting. The petition is a public statement. Our voices need to be heard.
File complaints about offending articles using the guide and template we have prepared. If you see BBC online articles that use demeaning terms or misgender people, please file formal complaints.
