Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.
A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with 
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind
Broadsheets are the future

congrats to ed sheeran on his achievement

This is hilarious. The EHRC are meeting in Glasgow now and are too scared to come outside to get lunch because a group of trans weans are protesting outside. The EHRC had to get 70 pounds worth of dominos pizza ordered instead and I know because I've literally seen the receipt myself.

A three panel meme of Fred Armisen in Parks & Rec as Raul.

Showing support for Palestine? Straight to jail.

Protesting about climate change? Jail.

Inciting racist riots? Believe it or not, straight to Radio 4 Today programme.

Ooh, we're back to the new Scotrail app not recognising the route I usually get as an option. It's fun to watch which bugs in the app come back as they sort others, like recurring sitcom characters.

As someone who has been tweeted about personally by Rowling. And who spends my whole life trying to fight the damage caused by the litigation she funds. I think, personally, I would be less harmed by you giving me an actual kick in the ribs than watching the new Harry Potter & trying to justify it.

How do we solve these mega waiting lists for the gender clinics??? Just dont do the gender clinics and just have GPs prescribe hormones and refer for surgeries Gender clinics exist to soothe scared cis people not to help trans people transition

What horseshit. She embraced gay people at the height of the AIDS crisis, embraced trans people at the height of the war against them, supported Black communities and artists, and wrote the most pro-worker's rights feminist pop song of all time. Neutral my ass

WenzlerPowers: 

Dolly Parton writing “I will always love you“ and “Jolene“ in the same day is mind blowing.

It’s like if da Vinci finished the Mona Lisa then turned around in the same day and wrote “Jolene“
