Itβs the Governmentβs duty to protect all communities - including trans people.
Theyβre failing to do that.
Trans people deserve safety and dignity.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeareβs Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Looks about right
Scanning some old slides for an article. This is a petroglyph from the far west of Tibet, made before 0CE. In the so-called Scythian style, in which sinuous game animals appear to float on tiptoe
#Etna update π
#INGV reported that a new eruptive vent has opened near Mt. Simone at ~2,100 m a.s.l., feeding a lava flow down the Valle del Bove. The most advanced front has reached 1,500β1,400 m a.s.l.
INGV teams are currently on site monitoring the flowβs evolution.

Just after midnight on 1 January 2026, a new eruption started from #Etna's eastern flank: a fissure opened at ~2100 m elevation, and a lava flow is descending through the desert-like Valle del Bove. Photos taken in the evening of 1 January from Etna's east and southeast flanks
This puts into words quite a lot of what I have been thinking about AI
Knives out: the upper middle class are squabbling vicious children who do not deserve their inheritance
Glass onion: the new elite are the stupidest murderous cunts alive and deserve your scorn
Wake up dead man: those preaching anger as salvation are leading you to death, hope and kindness matter
One thing that gets me every time this comes up is when somebody turns evil and people act like they were evil their whole life. No.
Children are not born evil or hateful or bigoted. That behaviour is learned and people learn it at different points in their lives.
π Imagine the flavour - lol

New Odyssey trailer is out and Iβm screaming. Like WHAT is this helmet?! Also the Greeks apparently have Viking ships. π‘π±
Reform UK have repeatedly said that Kent is their "flagship" council and "the shop window" for how they intend to run things.
When they are exposed as planning to slash social care for old people, in order to hire their cronies as advisors at Β£150k a pop, I think people should believe them. ~AA

Clay letters from ancient Mesopotamia are alive with idiom, sayings, and everyday language that I love.
Here are just a few random ones so you can enjoy them too.
Boromir from THE LORD OF THE RINGS, holding The One Ring. He thought he could use it for good, but everything done with the ring turns to evil. He was one of the mightiest warriors of middle earth, and he could not resist its powers. Others even mightier fell to the ring. Do you think you are stronger than them? The One Ring is generative AI.
Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.
GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.
But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.
