I know people are very sensitive about the use of the word “genocide” but the attempts to medically eliminate trans children is very clearly meets the standard because they are trying to eliminate a population and also they know some of those kids are going to kill themselves

Strongly encourage all academics, novelists, reporters, bloggers, whatever to just email this account and state that you want to opt out of this idiocy.

Overload them with emails and make them regret they ever tried this shit.

Historian calls for AI content of Occupation to be labelled Dr Gilly Carr says it must be clear so people know what is fake and what is historical evidence.

 "...the thing is, photographs are historical evidence and once you start messing with that (using #AI) and falsifying that, you are falsifying historical evidence.

"That's the problem."

Cambridge University on the scurge of #AI fake images of the Channel Islands Occupation.

Responding to Psychologist Uta Frith: Autism Can’t Be Quantified Autism will never fit in the disease model because it is not a disease; it is part of the human condition. That is the beauty of the spectrum.

Uta Frith, a foundational autism researcher, recently said that the autism spectrum has "lost its meaning." She couldn't be more wrong. "The spectrum concept has helped to humanize autistic people," according to Anne Borden King's response, at TPGA:

You wonder why we don't come forward with allegations of abuse. Trump needs to be impeached for his sex crimes and pedophile views alone.

Historians are quite capable of explaining the hellscape that is the US at this particular minute, and its kind of telling that you imagine we won't because it means you haven't been listening or reading

I attended a queer night drag show in Ontario on the US/Canada border. The crowd chanted this at the end of the set. We're all in agreement.

Yes, it is. An impending predestined apocalypse, is central to Christian nationalist ideology. White Christian nationalists believe they will be exclusively saved from death and destruction, which they are instrumental in creating in the US.

How America Chose Not to Hold the Powerful to Account Our national project of elite impunity

After the arrests of powerful men across the world, you might be asking why the US has so much trouble holding its leaders accountable for lawbreaking. Since Nixon, all three branches of government have worked hard to ensure they can break the law with impunity www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The Epstein files have been extremely eye-opening about why #MeToo never produced structural change to the systems that enable sexual abuse.

As Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s family, we commend the British authorities for taking meaningful action and treating the Epstein files with the urgency they demand.

While these arrests aren’t for the underlying exploitation, they are a crucial step toward truth and accountability.

The contrast with the continued inaction in the United States is undeniable. Survivors deserve transparency, swift investigation, and real justice, no matter who is implicated.
