btw the fact that labour won't actually be treating this 660% surge as a real thing is how you know their ban on palestine action is politically motivated authoritarianism.
if pa were an actual terror threat then a surge of 660% would have the entire political and media class panicked.

i can't believe terrorism has surged by 660% since labour came to power.

There is one response when someone does an identify joke in your presence and that's to say 'huh, and I thought you identified as a cunt'
I’ve heard and seen more ‘identify as’ jokes creeping into the mainstream media. There was one on channel 4’s last leg the other week - okay it wasn’t one of the regulars, or a well known personality that cracked it, but everyone laughed and no one called them out.

We cannot do that by using inappropriate facilities.

I love that FEH decided that the endgame of Florina's character was her getting an A support with Lyn.
The unit has both her FE7 goals met—she becomes "a proper Pegasus Knight" Lyn can rely on & conquers her fear of bows. And her own bow is even wrapped w. Lyn's boot wraps. Cute.
Love this alt. 💜💚

This is fucking pathetic on Steam’s part. There’s no way in hell “has muslims” should be approved as criticism, and the DEI whining is the same hateful sentiment with a flimsy cover draped on.

New rules on access to single-sex spaces could pose a significant risk to the mental health of trans and non-binary people, according to 15 of the UK’s most respected mental charities.
Organisations including Samaritans, Mind, Centre for Mental Health and the Royal College of Psychiatrists have written to the equalities minister, Bridget Phillipson, to express their “deep concern” about guidance from the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) that is awaiting approval from the government.
