Help needed with gender affirming care - we all know the NHS won't do it!

givewheel.com/fundraising/...

I can personally vouch for the people involved here - I work with them. If I could I'd fund the whole thing myself but sadly that lottery win hasn't turned up.

Just the nicest, sweetest people who will tell you in the most polite, ingratiating way the true and deep monstrousness that inhabits their very souls.
Kindergarten teacher called a prank ICE hotline thinking it was real. She called to report her 6 year old student to ICE to try to get them and their family deported.

6 years old.

She does not enjoy hearing her own words and actions played back to her.

It's a known thing that in a fight/flight/freeze scenario, my default is fight. Why though?

I mean, mostly because my adrenaline surge is so strong I can't freeze and my knees are too fucked up to run away, so I take the bastard down with me instead

This doesn't translate very well to phone calls

Scrapping the two-child benefit cap is long overdue and welcome.

But while Labour dragged its feet and Reform want to turn the clock back, the overall benefit cap is still in place and still traps families in poverty. It’s time to scrap it.

Thanks to @angelflms_ (on threads) for giving me a screenshot because my block reflexes were on point this morning and I forgot to screenshot it before I blocked the OP.

I have a cold that comes with my nose running like a tap, and so naturally I get a giant custardy yellow zit right against the corner of my left nostril. Managed to pop the fucker but I know it's going to come back and I know it's going to hurt every time I blow my nose whether it's drained or huge

When you catch yourself making long lists of writing tropes you hate with the fire of a thousand suns and will never read or use in your own work, check how much you've eaten in the last twenty four hours. You might just be hungry.

Woke up today with no voice. Can only whisper, and even that hurts. Was hoping hot tea would melt the gunk off but alas. I am silent today.

Please also remember today the words of Romani Holocaust survivor Karl Stojka: “It wasn't Hitler or Himmler who deported me, beat me, and shot my family. It was the shoemaker, the milkman, the neighbor, who were given a uniform and then believed they were the master race."

Feels like someone has sandpapered my throat, and I keep randomly coughing and sneezing

I'm supposed to be in the office tomorrow, orienting a new batch of volunteers

Maybe I'll just take the onion syrup with me. Mask up so I don't breathe on anyone, and I'll get used to onion breath eventually

I get why certain men join ICE. Power over people they've been told owe them subservience? Sure. Women? No clue. Do they all think they're so special that they'll be spared the harassment, abuse, and rape that always happens in these environments? Do they think it's worth it to get to hurt people?

Please, for your mental health, turn off autoplay
This is all EXTREMELY fluid right now. The situation is very bad, that much is clear. But this is all initial reporting from observers. There will likely be video, maybe a lot of it.

Added a few more games and finished up entries for a bunch more on my big spreadsheet of Cool Free PC Games.

Considering that some are multi-game entries, that's over 350+ things to play, many of which are full, retail-worthy times.

If you've got any kind of PC, videogames are just kinda great.

Numb tingly mouth after eating a small tub of tzatziki. That's novel and not alarming in the slightest.

The US granted visas to Jews but only allowed 30,000 in from Germany a year. You had to wait for your number to come up.

Meet Robert Smallbones. An unassuming British diplomat who 'hacked' this system so effectively (saving 48 THOUSAND Jews) the UK government kept his scheme secret for decades /1 🧵

Had to be an ass to another recruiter today. The first time he called I listened to the first 10 seconds of the spiel, said 'no' firmly and hung up

He called back, so I invoked my right to be forgotten under GDPR and told him he has 30 days to comply, then I hung up.

I feel guilty for some reason

This thread is such a wild ride.
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Brooklyn Beckham is a great example of how people minimise and dismiss coercive and controlling relationships.

It doesn’t make a difference how much money someone has, or whether their parents gave them the opportunities.

Abuse is abuse, power to him for calling it out.

Playing in my head today, for reasons I don't quite understand. Maybe because I went to the doctor and they treated me like a grown up that needed help, and not a silly child?

This though, this is a classic.
