Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful.

Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

Fed up of delivery companies who tell you your parcel is due in a couple of days and then message you at 9am all β€œsurprise, motherfucker! It’s coming today! You’re gonna be home in this two hour window!” No! It’s not 2020 any more, give me more notice!

In other news, Chris just asked me if I could help him develop some kind of mnemonic to remember which one is Connor Storrie and which one is Hudson Williams

my suggestion of β€œjust watch Heated Rivalry?” was not well-received

Midway through the final episode of The Handmaid's Tale, truly the "this meeting could have been an email" of television shows

The 34-year-old, who won last month's Gorton and Denton by-election, was helped by the police towards a waiting car after anti-transgender activists clashed with women's rights and anti-racism campaigners.

Pinching myself reading a BBC news article actually reporting anti-trans campaigners as clashing with women's rights campaigners rather than calling them women's rights campaigners

going to suggest something radical and disruptive to the UK TV advertising industry: how about some ads that don't have Peter Crouch in them

I know I’ve said variations on this before but it’s wild to me that it has been scraping my personal data for years and should know so much about me and yet the best it can apparently do is β€œwould u like to watch Melania :)”

This is the warning on the blood pressure monitor my dad just got.

Exceptional work. Anybody know what the fuck it’s supposed to mean?

Last line is especially ominous

A reminder that Nigel Farage, Kemi Badenoch and the entire Conservative-supporting press have spent the past week lambasting Keir Starmer for not joining the Iran war.

Here's what has happened since then to public opinion

I wonder if this will ever not be true

It’s almost like the UK’s right-wing press doesn’t actually reflect public opinion but instead the fevered imaginations of a very small group of sociopaths.

Genuinely to this day if someone on TV tells another character to put yourself first I can’t stop myself shouting β€œin a sexy way!”

I remember being stunned into silence by that last one! (Also it’s not particularly double entendre-y but my god Put Yourself First still slaps)

Oh no, are they going to be saying 'frozen liquid gas' on the news all the time again? WELL WHICH IS IT?

just heard something come through the letterbox and I was like β€œI swear if that’s the Labour Party again…” but it was just our council tax bill lol

Tweet from matt (@mattxiv):
using the passive "dead" and the active "killed" in the SAME HEADLINE is absolutely diabolical

Like at this point it’s no secret to the people writing these headlines that this kind of thing has been roundly criticized for years and years. It’s an intentional, conscientious decision on their part. They know they’re propagandists (and, for better or worse, we all are!).

apparently it’s gonna be neck and neck between Reform and the Greens to get the seat round here next time

for context: I live in an area that has been solidly Labour for decades and I don’t remember them doing much door-knocking since I moved here five years ago, but I’m guessing they’re seeing the way the wind is blowing

You’d think in this era of β€œMPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name

I have had @jamesasser.bsky.social tell me that Streeting is not β€œa transphobe”.

The words of James Baldwin come to mind about the Labour Party RN.

β€œI can’t believe what you say because I see what you do.”

A sign of cultural shift: whenever I see a sport themed novel now, I assume it's a LGBTQ+ romance until I find out it's not.
