The BBC announcing a two part doc on JK Rowling the same week as erasing a “protect the dolls” t-shirt is a pretty clear choice. They’re just full on promoting another network’s show now as long as it’s trans people who pay the price. Good to know, Beeb.

"You're making fun of queer people" I think most people are pretty sympathetic to the queer woman living out of her truck, $50k in debt, abandoned by her business partners, who thinks she is obligated to sit through 3.5 hour accountability sessions for the crime of wanting to keep the business open.

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

The real story here is that the DWP's PFI Jobcentre Plus is sending people to 'job fairs' that are not screened and unaccountable. They give grifters and liars vulnerable folks desperate for work to prey on. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

this is sort of a separate point but this is also why i love Audrey's shirts. I think it's honestly more provocative these days to attach the statement specifically to oneself, to insist that it's the kind of preference one can have, without making it a proclamation over all trans-kind

Turns out that if you are an old lady with a banner supporting Palestine, the government arrests you on charges of terrorism. If you are a masked white male thug bringing a national port to a standstill, the government does absolutely nothing, and the media covers it like some lads on a day out.

People will bang on about "emotional blackmail" and you look and it's like trans people being stripped of gender affirming healthcare saying this is going to cause massive mental health fallout, a fact that in medical circumstances tends to be used as a definition of what trans people are.

immigration controls are positively totalitarian: the "crime" every detained and deported immigrant is guilty of is, at one point in their life, crossing an imaginary, arbitrary line drawn by the state; borders criminalize your very existence in space, if you deviate one inch from your assigned spot

Jason Arday didn’t deserve this. The lie that this is about truth or academic standards is bullshit. The Cass report is based on the transphobic “research” which has since been found to be unethical and based in academic misconduct. That has barely been reported. It’s racism. He was targeted.

I hate that we have let the nastiest racists on earth define and redefine our language. From "woke" to "DEI." Trump's policies are not anti-DEI. They are racist. US firms did not abandon DEI policies. They fired competent black women in droves on the basis of race and sex.

One dubious positive of Rowling's increasingly overt anti trans hostility is that it's become less legally fraught to describe her as transphobic. There were literary education materials that had to be pulped a few years ago for even mentioning the controversy on her views in an essay prompt

Hey UK government That was not an appropriate use of emergency alerts. We're all aware there's a heightened risk of wildfires atm, that alert should be reserved for "there is a wildfire nearby rn" not "pretty please don't start fires for fun"

It’s so funny when people are like “sure you’re an abolitionist now but wait until you’re the victim of a property crime.” Buddy, the most useful thing the police have ever done for property crime is put the form you need to submit to your insurance online.

Sadly, none of that changes the fact that artistic funding models are completely broken right now, nor does it change the fact that artists need access to food, shelter, and healthcare, just like normal people. If you want all art to be free, your best bet is to end capitalism.

This is exactly why language matters: “women were given the vote” frames equality as a gift from men, instead of hard won political power extracted through organized resistance. Nobody gave women anything. Women fought, marched, strategized, endured violence, went to prison and died for it.
