When Rosie Duffield is in on it I think we can safely say the anti-phone campaign in Brianna's name is actively at odds with tackling transphobia

Very convenient to be able to shove the transphobia that got this girl killed under the carpet and blame phones instead and be able to deny any criticism like that
Maybe Esther doesn’t think its insulting, but its rubbing salt in the wound to the whole trans community

The “Bootstraps” idiom was originally meant to refer to the literally impossible. It was co-opted.
Idiom Origin
“pull yourself up by your bootstraps”
This was originally *sarcasm* & meant to convey that the act was impossible.
A boot strap is a loop used to help put your boot on.
This 1921 cartoon from the “Nonpartisan Leader” showcases that you can’t pull upward on your boots to levitate.

The BBC should now broadcast Trump's entire speech, uncut, at a peak viewing time to show that he did indeed incite the mob to invade Congress.

BBC: "While President Trump has not disclosed any legal cause of action against us, we wish to apologise unreservedly to him, lick his boots, cancel shows that he doesn't like and which we never had any intention of broadcasting, and give him all our licence-fee payers' money by way of settlement"

What is wild is that those death threats don’t appear to be about Georgia’s support of LGBTQ+ folk but rather someone being weirdly obsessive about David 🤨
