Your fleecy blanket is so pretty!

Exactly! Transphobia is the gateway bigotry.

It's nothing so profound. They're just cunts.

The thing is, in a way, it *is* about access to abortion.

Everyone having full autonomy over their own body is what makes it OK for a trans person to go through transition; and also what makes it OK for a pregnant person to get an abortion.

Was just pondering how the worst people NEED religion that forgives their evil.
As a child, it bothered me immensely that people needed a god to forgive their worldly actions
I couldn't fathom doing something so horrible that only a god could forgive
I remain this way

Their whole 'for the children' thing is a cover up to make more normal people put up with them while they build numbers and power because they know that others care, so it's a convenient shield + bait for more to indoctrinate. Their actual goal has always been to make others suffer. Does that help?

Trump and the GOP are following Hitler’s actions.

I don't think the average citizen of the world understands how bad things are for transgender and genderqueer Americans right now. The persecution may be uneven across states, but it is relentless.

This is the reality of what AI companies want for the future: where EVERYONE is unable to function without relying on them for "intelligence as a utility."

In order for them to sell this to us, they need to convince us our brains are never creative, interesting, able enough.

Anyway, today I had to straight up tell someone high up in a lead generation business that yes, asking people questions they have already answered when they filled in the form is likely to have a negative impact on conversions.

The middle class are not normal.

Zack Polanski blames both Conservative and Labour governments for regression in trans rights (EXCLUSIVE) Zack Polanski pointed to Conservative and Labour governments, saying there has been an β€œacceleration of that regression," at Trans Mission.

"It’s particularly horrendous to me when you have someone from within our own community who demonises a minority group. I don’t know what’s going on in Wes Streeting’s head, but what I do know is it’s terrifying for trans people,” he said.

Today's CJEU decision in Shipova has major implications for legal protections for trans people in Northern Ireland, where relevant EU law still applies. First the Court underlines that different treatment of trans people vs biological sex is not generally acceptable:

It's because the Conservatives, Reform and Starmer are all in the pay of the same billionaires, who expect to be given the opportunity to write a few manifesto promises in return for their generosity.

Because the "Labour" party has been stuffed with Tories. Some of whom were considered a bit too extreme for the first team.

If only our guys had started freeing slaves and slaughtering slave-owners after we set fire to the White House in 1814. Could have removed the need for the Civil War.

I had some good news, and that should have made me feel good; but now I'm feeling bad about it because other people got bad news instead of the good news I got.

So I guess the machine is working exactly as it's supposed to.

This was the point of the NOLS project. They quietly stuffed the Labour party with Tories, to create a reserve team. Not only could they be given a stint in power anytime the first team made an unreelectable blunder, but any failings of the reserves would be blamed by the press on "socialism".

β€œShe’s the exception, I am the rule.”

Such articulate cutting through of the nonsense around puberty blockers and eg Keira Bell’s detransitioning from Stephanie Lynnette on GMB this morning. It is also a refreshing relief to see a trans person actually being allowed to speak for once!

Image shows a copy of the Trans Lives report 2025. Text reads:  Trans people in the UK are being failed. Transphobia from politicians and in the media not only impacts trans people’s mental health, it also impacts the way others treat us – whether that’s our family members or strangers in the street. GPs and staff in the GP practice aren’t giving us the standard of care we need from them – training needs to be put in place urgently.

Lack of access to gender congruent ID makes us unsafe and gets in the way of going about our daily lives. Multiply marginalised trans people have worse experiences due to the intersections of transphobia with racism, ableism etc.

Aye. I saw a YouTube video by someone boasting how they got an AI to code up an app to write CAM files for the fret slots on a guitar neck. That doesn't need AI! Just a few lines of any language with floating-point maths and printf, knowing 12 semitones = 1 octave and metres * Hz = speed of sound.

Yeah, there are too many people who treat the requirement for consent as an affront.

I haven't; but I know there are people around these parts who will put a samosa into a cob, and I've occasionally been known to wrap carbohydrates other than chips in a tortilla (or "Rizla bread", as my ex's daughter charmingly referred to them), so not ruling it out.
