She/her. Also fae/faer
I know this may sound trivial. But, honestly, folks, it is not.

The quote skeet below makes the point well.

A clear weakness of the framing rhetoric of 'evidence based policymaking' in politics. It allows for bad actors to set ridiculously high or low evidence thresholds and then invoke the authority of science or rationality for their evil ends. Not new, but ever clearer.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

In other news, i understand astronomers have just observed a teeny tiny teapot orbiting our sun, and are asking a Mr Bertrand Russell to report to Lost Property to reclaim it.

Think i am going to start a rumour that nettles turn you trans!

To put it another way... humans have been eating nettles and drinking nettle extract for thousands of years.

But because insufficient research, children should avoid them because...

Well, because...

Also, children under 12 should not be given them (soup, tea, etc.) because there was insufficient evidence for the effect of nettles on that age cohort!

Yeah. I'm left-brained for language and logic.

Right-brained for everything else.

This used to be a line in a stand-up i would do. Well, not this line exactly. But the observation that in the US, when it comes to folks doing bad things in loos, for a long time the score was:

Trans women - zero
Republican politicians - 3 or 4
Men of religion - dozens and dozens!

But I guess it wouldn't be remembrance without some reform adjacent bellend trying to appropriate commemoration for purposes of promoting fascism...

Speeding past the fact that she was born here... Lawrence is displaying not just massive racism, but also massive ignorance.

Because poppy wearing is a thing across much of the Commonwealth, including british counties like Canada, New Zealand and India.

<sigh>

My gran lived thru the war, and is now long gone.

She passed in 1990 or thereabouts.

There was much good about her.

She was also an out and out racist and xenophobe. But never a nazi.

I knew that in the 60s.

People are complicated.

The one concession to convenience was Sarah Lee... a phenomenon driven by the arrival of chest greeters in the late 60s.

A frozen Sarah Lee dessert was a Sunday afternoon treat!
