There are no “legitimate concerns” about trans people. There aren’t any about women’s safety or fairness in sports or kids being kids or fucking toilets. If there were you’d have heard of them before 2018. I am a cis white woman so you have to listen to me or I’ll cry.

My hot take on the coffee/interview debate is that a) bring coffee if you want but b) one of the reasons I got my current job (and I was told this by the interviewers!) was that I was offered a coffee and asked where to put my mug afterwards... So there is an advantage to not bringing your own.

Spent my evening deep in Go-Man by @hamishsteele.bsky.social - glorious, vibrant and evocative fun (plus the cutest monsters I've ever seen). Shall definitely be picking up Volume 2.

Eddie, I know exactly how you feel

Eddie, a brown daschund, lies beneath a grey blanket on a fluffy white bed. His snout just about peeps out of the blanket, his eyes droopy, making him appear intensely reluctant to get up and out of bed. .

An AI flyer is a brown M&M test. If your event or business is cutting corners by using an AI flyer, where else are you cutting corners? What else are you cheating out on? Why should I be bothered to go somewhere you couldn't be bothered to promote with a little of your own personality?

this is a common question and the answer is that a lot of companies actually do track piracy numbers when it comes to gauging interest in an IP so if you really want to send the message that Harry Potter is toxic: no, you should not pirate it either

Everyone, please be aware that this is not actually any sort of apology, it's pure condescension which doesn't even describe trans people as trans people, so point out to everyone that no, she has not changed, this is pure PR in the hopes that the TV series doesn't flop.
