I have migrated from Twitter, I am hopeful Bluesky will develop the sauce that twitter had but with fewer Nazis.

Scam alert: Someone is pretending to be me and reaching out to authors. The pitch contains enough specific details that it sounds plausible at first.
This is not me! I'm so sorry to anyone who has fallen for this.

You know, infuriating and a shameful betrayal though the BBC and other media's misreporting of the Sandie Peggie judgment is, it also doesn't really matter.
What matters is the judgment which lawyers will read, use to advise their clients, and inclusion will be the winner.

Radio 4 and BBC and Channel 4 News and all the papers completely skewing the Peggie story so your average person will have no idea what actually happened. Doesn’t this make you furious? Integrity in journalism is dead, not just in the US

Looking at the papers and broadcast media today having read the press summary of the Sandie Peggie judgment is wild.
They either haven’t read it or are lying about it.
And then people wring their hands about trust in institutions or bemoan people resorting to social media for news.

The thing that's most annoying about arsenal losing is always that fundamentally so much of the media love to perpetuate this bullshit narrative that we're mentally frail and there's no way to rebut it because its unfalsifiable bollocks. When we win the league this season I will enjoy the suffering.

I listened to Pete Hegseth defend their double tap strikes on the Venezuelan boats these are cowards playing dress up as soldiers because they yearn for a third of their generation to die in a pointless war and don't realise that they'd be the ones shitting themselves in a trench from fear.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), to reporters, after viewing video footage of the U.S. strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean on Sept. 2:
"Righteous strikes." "Entirely lawful."

An easy way to explain luddites:
Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.
And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.
That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

59000 americans were KIA
By 1996 in America (a similar timeframe from the official beginning of the pandemic)
362000 americans had been killed by HIV/AIDS
The scale of death was unimagineable and the lack of cultural dissection and memory appalls me to this day.

Oddly the fact that Your Party is ultimately a clusterfuck might be fantastic for the future of the left in the UK. Allow the SWP weirdos to try and launch factionalist coups at each other. Anyone with an earnest sense of moving british politics left will leave the binfire (join the greens probs).

We, the transgender community, receive a lot of flack for apparently erasing the word, 'woman'.
Yet, I increasingly see in the press, transgender women referred to as 'biological males' (slur) AND cisgender women referred to as 'females' rather than women.
Who is really erasing the word, 'woman'?

Three weeks ago I marked nine years on Testosterone.
I didn't celebrate it then because I was in the middle of a multi-month battle to be allowed to stay on it, despite not producing my own hormones and simply wanting to remain on the exact prescription I'd had for nine years without any problems.

I don't think british courts can be trusted to handle transphobia cases. Very clearly they have declared open season on trans harassment. Its the belief among a certain elite that trans people are worthy of all the harassment they get. Justice will involve massive reform.
