It was reprehensible when people mocked condom usage at the height of the AIDS pandemic.

It is just as depraved to mock those wearing masks to reduce the spread of airborne viruses today.

Whenever someone takes any kind of step to protect public health, they should be applauded, not mocked.

Young people are risking their lives for Palestine.
Qesser Zuhrah is on day 46 of hunger strike, is very sick and literally dying.
HMP Bronzefield is currently denying her an ambulance.

Call them 0178442560 and demand an ambulance for Qesser.

Trans and non-binary people are the core of my local anti Nazi / anarchist scene.

There is a Lords amendment that requires all phones to have unremovable spyware pre-installed, supposedly to combat CSAM. It is unsurprising that one of its sponsors is the weirdo Hilary Cass.
Member's explanatory statement This new clause would require the Secretary of State to take action to promote and protect children's wellbeing by mandating the installation of software which prevents the creation, viewing and sharing of child sexual abuse material on smartphones and tablets which are supplied for use in the UK. Sponsors Baroness Cass Crossbench Life peer Baroness Benjamin Liberal Democrat Life peer > Lord Nash's amendment, After Clause 27 Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill Report stage Unnumbered amendment Lead member Lord Nash Conservative, Life peer Im Lords > After Clause 27 insert the following new Clause- "Action to promote the wellbeing of children by combating child sexual abuse material (CSAM) (1) Within 12 months of the passing of this Act the Secretary of State must, for the purpose of promoting the wellbeing of children, make and bring into force regulations which require manufacturers, importers and distributors of relevant devices to satisfy the CSAM requirement specified in subsection (2). (2) The "CSAM requirement" is that any relevant device supplied for use in the UK must have installed tamper- proof system software which is highly effective at preventing the recording, transmitting (by any means, including livestreaming) and viewing of CSAM using that device.

I was trying to get a refund from priority pass and asked chatGPT what the best way to do it was. It answered and gave me the phone number with a script. I called it thinking it was priority pass. I gave my name and address after describing the situation. Then they told me they would give me a credit that could be used at major retailers. Then they started asking what my routing number was which is when I got suspicious and I started hearing other people in the background being asked for a routing number. They weren't able to answer why so I hung up. I then went and confirmed the telephone number. ChatGPT gave me a number that didn't match up with priority pass at all. I asked where its source was for this and it was not able to tell me.

"COVID Shots Tied to a Lower Risk of Death From Any Cause"

According to a nationwide study of 28 million people in France, vaccinated adults had a 74% lower risk of dying from severe COVID-19, and a 25% lower risk of death from any cause compared to unvaccinated.

Source: archive.md/me3mp
A woman wearing a blue shirt and a face mask sits in the back seat of a car with her sleeve rolled up, while a healthcare worker in a mask and gloves leans in through the open car door to administer a COVID-19 vaccine. Sunlight comes through the windows, and medical supplies rest on the woman’s lap. Below the image is a MedPage Today headline that reads: “COVID Shots Tied to a Lower Risk of Death From Any Cause,” with a subheading stating that the benefit remains even after excluding coronavirus-related deaths.

Once again, a Scottish newspaper takes a stand, refusing to follow the mainstream media mob in perpetuating the great fiction that is the Gaza “ceasefire”.

The @scotnational.bsky.social puts their peers to shame.
The front page of the National on Friday Dec 5, 2025. The headline reads “A ceasefire in name only”. The sub-heading reads: “We publish a timeline of the ongoing violence in Gaza since a 'ceasefire was agreed - as Netanyahu's brutal, apartheid regime's genocide continues to claim lives.”

In the year ending 31 December 2024, there were 248 arrests for terrorist-related activity in Great Britain. The 10 year median is 265.

Under Labour this number is already over 2000.

This is what authoritarianism looks like.

COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.
Minimalist white poster with a subtle crumpled-paper texture; small ‘whn.global’ logo centered at the top. A small intro line sits above a huge headline where ‘COVID’ is bright red and ‘is different.’ is black. Text: ‘Paraphrased from David Brasure’s WHN blog post, “COVID Is Different.” Read the full article at whn.global/covid-is-different. COVID is different. SARS-CoV-2 behaves differently from the viruses most of us grew up with. And treating it like “another flu” is costing people their health.’ Footer: The World Health Network is a network devoted to global compassion—working together to inspire collective action through science for a safer, healthier world. Same white, paper-texture poster and top ‘whn.global’ logo. Large title reads ‘What makes COVID different?’ with ‘COVID’ in red, followed by a bulleted list. Text: ‘Paraphrased from David Brasure’s WHN blog post, “COVID Is Different.” Read the full article at whn.global/covid-is-different. What makes COVID different? • It can breach the blood–brain barrier • It can damage your endothelial lining and increase clot risk • It can persist in tissues • It can lower key immune cells • It may increase cancer risk • You can catch it multiple times per year These are not “normal cold virus” behaviors.’ Footer line about the World Health Network. Same clean white poster with paper texture; ‘whn.global’ at top. Big statement line mid-page where ‘Long COVID’ appears in red and the rest in black; two short paragraphs below. Text: ‘Paraphrased from David Brasure’s WHN blog post, “COVID Is Different.” Read the full article at whn.global/covid-is-different. Long COVID is caused by SARS-CoV-2. Persistent symptoms come from real, documented damage. Not anxiety, not imagination, not “just needing rest.” Hundreds of thousands of studies show SARS-CoV-2 affects the body in ways we’re still uncovering. Just because you’ve had multiple infections and “felt fine” doesn’t mean it will stay that way.’ Footer line about the World Health Network. Same minimalist white, paper-texture layout with ‘whn.global’ at top. A large heading ‘Here’s what you can do.’ sits above a simple bullet list; the final URL slug ‘covid-is-different’ is in red. Text: ‘Paraphrased from David Brasure’s WHN blog post, “COVID Is Different.” Read the full article at whn.global/covid-is-different. Here’s what you can do. • Improve air quality (filters, ventilation) • Wear a high-filtration mask in shared indoor air • Test when exposed or symptomatic • Stay home when sick • Use layered protections with friends, family, and workplaces Read more at whn.global/covid-is-different’ Footer line about the World Health Network.

"The problem with Long COVID is that most of society would rather not see it. We want to believe the pandemic was just a bad dream we awoke from years ago. (When I hear someone say during COVID, in the past tense, I want to flip a table.)"

#LongCOVID

Source: archive.md/7Rer1
A webpage from The Sick Times with the headline: “You know someone with Long COVID. They need you to ask about it genuinely.” The article is written by Philip Hoover and dated November 28, 2025. A subheading below says: “If community-building is a bulwark against autocracy, then asking after one another might be a good place to start.” Below the text is the painting Melancholy (1894–96) by Edvard Munch. It shows a person in dark clothing sitting on a shoreline with their head resting on their hand, looking sad or contemplative. The background features swirling, vivid colors—blues, purples, and oranges—representing the sea, sky, and landscape, with distant figures near a pier. A caption beneath credits the artwork to the Bergen Kunstmuseum in Bergen.

the bbc changed their article from saying 'trans woman' to saying 'biological male who identifies as a woman'.

even if you don't care about trans ppl it should alarm you just how captured the bbc has become.

they will no longer even say 'trans woman'. that's not normal and shows massive bias.
