They have made it clear that they believe if they make it awful enough to be trans, people will stop being trans. In service of that, the assault of children is a welcome outcome for them.

When politicians like Trump, or Starmer, say & do transphobic things, parents talk about it in front of kids & then the kids bring it to school.

It’s horrific that these kids are being taught to hate & at such an early age.

It is critical we do not import this into Irish politics:

Not going to share 'grift' but Heather Humphreys has just said that I'm a man and the gender recognition act should be changed. Please do not vote for or give a preference for her. Having someone as president who thinks this way would be absolutely awful for minorities #SpeirGorm

France, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands followed 5,094 COVID patients for up to 24 months.

Researchers identified 7 long COVID states.

Older age and chronic lung disease led to worse outcomes, while men and later variants favored recovery.

This illustrates exactly how the term, 'Covid' has come to mean, 'the non-pharmaceutical interventions adopted during the emergency phase of the pandemic', not the disease itself.

The 'Covid effect' mentioned in the piece is actually acute C-19 and its sequelae.

This line….they were just oh so close:
“However, emerging evidence in recent years suggests that environmental factors, such as poor air quality and inadequate ventilation within school buildings, may be contributing factors to increased rates of student absenteeism.”

I’ve heard from a couple of messaging strategists now that people shouldn’t post so much about COVID19 vaccines because it’s “divisive”.

I am here to say that I do not give a damn what is popular.

I will never ignore scientific evidence for the sake of expediency, and neither should anyone else.

Financial stress & scarcity checks every box of what makes CPTSD "complex:" money problems tend to unfold over time, they are functionally inescapable, & they impact almost all of our relationships. Add to that the fact they make us feel trapped, controlled, & "in trouble."

Foyle Pride [Sunday Life]
FOYLE A RIOT OF COLOUR AS PRIDE TAKES OVER STREETS Sunday Life24 Aug 2025 The streets of Derry were awash with the colours of the rainbow yesterday as thousands attended the annual Foyle Pride parade, but once again, Stormont’s main parties weren’t welcome. Pride chairperson Jason Dunne said this year’s message of ‘Existence is resistance’ was “vital more than ever, given the current climate for our community, especially our trans siblings”. He told BBC Foyle: “That’s just a statement to say, ‘Look, we’re here. We’ve always existed. We will continue to exist’. #TransAgendaClips

Makes me feel very not good that the BBC openly refers to trans people with slurs. If you weren’t aware, to call a trans person “biologically [their sex assigned at birth]” is a slur - it’s dehumanising and inaccurate!

Covid has been such a massive failure of public heath, among other things. This virus is still disabling and killing people and so many people think it became magically milder in 2022.
brebis.bsky.social Sheep in Fog @brebis.bsky.social · Aug 22
A conversation with a colleague:

“I probably have Covid, but it’s not too bad this time. Thankfully Covid isn’t as dangerous anymore.”

I asked when it became less dangerous.

“Three years ago, when they removed the restrictions. They knew it had turned mild otherwise they wouldn’t have done it.”
