For the weekend

My Prospect piece on the botched "Kneecap" prosecution www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/law/th...

My follow-on piece at The Empty City on that case and the similarly dappy Palestine Action proscription

"President Trump will hit the home run, score the touchdown and win the marathon. He will bring home the bacon AND fry it up in a pan. He will bring in the funk, he will kick out the jams. And I assure you -- he will, he will rock you."

My marriage is actually open right now. The only thing prohibiting my sleeping with other people is my wife.

Hundreds of GPs tell BBC they have never refused a fit note over mental health concerns The number of fit notes issued has been rising, with more than 11.2m approved in England last year.

Anyway fuck the bbc to the sun

The BBC are really going out of their way to not call these The Peter Files.

i bet this shit sounds magical if you're fucking stupid

wes streeting is now conducting one of his fake 'reviews' in to adult hrt care on the nhs.

you should switch to diy hrt immediately bcos they're going to ban transition on the nhs.

remember this the next time @lucympowell.bsky.social or @darrenpjones.bsky.social say 'unity not division'.

".. they fire missiles from schools & hospitals"

Also: the answer to the question “how did this debate become toxic (in Britain)” is usually “because these specific British media outlets set the terms of the debate, and they are holding all of the microphones, so they decide what’s acceptable and who is allowed to speak”.

As Israel slaughters hundreds of people in Lebanon and Iran and forces hundreds of thousands to flee their homes in terror, & while it continues its genocide in Gaza, Yolande Knell reports on the disruption to the daily lives of Israelis.

I think I downloaded the wrong Dune 2

In the rare cases where the news are reporting on the attack of Hannah Spencer, they're framing it as 'the Green Party say the men were shouting transphobic comments'.

The aggressors were wearing sandwich boards with transphobic slogans, this isn't fucking rocket science lads.

You may remember that a little while back, I said I was going to start procuring residential property to provide a secure and community-ran social housing system for trans and non-binary people in the UK?

We get the keys to our first residential unit in Scotland at the end of the month.

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.

There’s this weird idea that the Iran conflict will be over in a months time and I don’t know why it’s persisting because its a fucking crackers idea that would be the case.

I’m Not a military analyst, more of a sofa historian & working knowledge of the Gulf region culturally.

However:

Kivas Fajo & Lore

the western press is truly, truly ill.

People should be REALLY scared by this, it's normalising refusing healthcare to a section of the community for entirely ideological reasons with absolutely no medical reason

In many cases, “mental health” is the scapegoat diagnosis for absolutely changeable, systemic, material circumstances.

Five fewer hours of work a week and $5K more a year would change a lot of people’s lives.

DOUBLE RESET LETS GOOO

Yeah but guess what; those refugees aren’t going to end up in the US or Israel. A surge of refugees into western Europe is only going to boost support for the kind of political parties that the US National Security Strategy says it is now a US foreign policy objective to support.

STATEMENT 1/

Last night, the Metropolitan Police raided the Westminster Quaker Meeting house – again. This time, they targeted Take Back Power's direct action training. There were 15 arrests.

Why does being alive have to be so goddamn expensive, I'm not even having a good time.

Consider: why is America, a country in North America, attacking Iran on the other side of the world? What right does the US have to bomb and attempt to destroy any country, anywhere on Earth? It has no right to do so. It’s doing it because it is governed by criminals.
