one thing i will never forget and forever be sickened by was that the leader of the SNP's, the First Minister's, in-laws were literally being bombed in an active genocide and the press and most of the political establishment just didn't care

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

Dean @ordersson.bsky.social · 18h

on the flip, what did you buy blind on a total whim that turned out to be utterly life affirming?

Marie Phillips @mariephillips.bsky.social · 3d

What albums does everyone regret buying? Loads for me, but the one that really sticks in my mind is K by Kula Shaker, which I forced myself to listen to joylessly several times in the desperate attempt to convince myself I hadn’t wasted my money, and still get cringes of regret about 29 years later.

Make no mistake, when the state imprisons a trans woman in a men's prison, it intentionally procures her for the purpose of having her raped. The statistics are extremely clear-cut and consistent in every jurisdiction where they have been collected. There is no way around them

it’s really extraordinary that the mainstream of uk politics has decided that the way forward is to allow a section of citizenry to be demonised and dehumanised, and how refreshing it is to see someone say you are real and human and will be protected

Robert Dallas Grue 🦇 @robertdallasgray.com · 21h

the thing that’s particularly cool about this is that he just very easily makes morgan’s takes look *weird*, by dint of honestly and simply speaking from the standpoint that trans people are ordinary human beings with the same rights to respect and dignity as anyone else

sometimes when people die i get a momentary sense of confusion. like, oh, i didn't know they could just...die. there are people you think of as sort of immortal because the thought of them being dead is absurd. yet here we are. again
