Two panel comic. Panel 1: a bat hangs upside-down from a telephone line at sunset. The bat is in front of a billboard advertising the Florida Mega Jackpot, which is valued at $5,318,008 - represented with a digital ticker. Panel 2: the POV flips to the bat’s upside-down perspective, which makes the digital numbers look like they spell “BOOBIES”. The bat appears delighted.

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

It will never be enough. No amount of cruelty is enough, because mere misery isn’t the end goal for people who repeatedly claim our existence is a crisis. If you think someone being alive is a problem, you want their death. If it’s an entire group, you want genocide.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

What the data (from 2024) says about the risk of violence for Jewish People, Muslims & trans people. Almost 1:53 trans people were assaulted, yet, rather than increasing protection for us as it has - rightly - done for Jewish people, the government is implementing measures to make us less safe.
"Assaults per 100,000 population - UK 2024
Jewish people: 89 per 100k
Muslims 163 per 100k
Transgender people: 1,866 per 100k

This is funny because he's too stupid to know it's meant to be 'identifies as a cat'. They know there are words they're meant to say but most don't even care enough to make sure they're the right words in the right order.

The anti-trans playbook is being wheeled out against neurodivergent kids more and more in UK papers [Saturday Times]
Overdiagnosis of children is getting dangerous
When a doctor suggested our three-year-old might have ‘sensory processing disorder’ I began to fear for all youngsters
Laura Freeman

Laura Freeman
At teatime on Holy Saturday, when we should have been toasting hot cross buns, we were instead bundling our three-year-old into the car and driving her to hospital. A&E sent us to urgent care, where we were seen by a nurse and a doctor.

Iris was admitted with pneumonia and installed in a bed on the children’s ward within an hour. The care she received over the weekend was exemplary and I have nothing but admiration for the nurses and their limitless supply of stickers, badges, cuddly toys, Easter eggs and bunny ears. The doctors, day and night shift, were reassuring and resourceful, but the doctor who discharged us made a speculative diagnosis that rattled me at the time and has bothered me since. It had nothing to do with Iris’s lungs.

My daughter was not an easy patient. When we arrived, she’d had two nights of tossing and turning and a fever of 106. We hadn’t been able to persuade her to eat anything for more than 24 hours. She hated the steroids — “fairy dust” — administered through a mask and hated the strap on the oxygen mask even more. She hated the taste of the antibiotics, and she hated the pulse oximeter being put on her toe. She really, really hated the nasal cannula.

She was distressed, confused and desperate to go home.

When we were released, the doctor gave us two prescriptions, a nebuliser and an assessment. Had we heard of sensory processing disorder? She thought Iris might have it. Children with SPD have difficulty processing sensory signals.

They may become hypersensitive or hyposensitive to certain stimuli. SPD often goes along with autism and a range of other neurodivergent conditions. Children with SPD may have difficulty fitting in. They may need to attend special schools.

‘The world,’ the doctor told me, ‘isn’t made for people like them’

Three panel comic. Panel 1: scene from the movie Aliens; Ripley is in a mech suit and delivers her iconic line: “get away from her, you bitch!” Panel 2: the xenomorph queen lunges at Ripley in the robotic suit and they engage in a fight. Panel 3: later, the xenomorph queen is standing in the shower, mid wash. She says, “‘it takes one to know one, honey.’ That’s what I should have said.”

We have a very simple solution to universal programs benefiting the wealthy. You claw back the money through taxes on the back end. Everyone has known this for 100 years, but people get to pretend they don’t when it’s convenient for their ideology.
