Tom Lehrer died today. He was one of the great comedians our culture ever produced. Without Tom, there's no Weird Al, probably no that entire branch of comedy.
He went alone and beat the odds.

Star Trek is this weird space-themed workplace drama where no one is allowed to have coffee or a water bottle. (Picard gets tea because he has a private office.) Everyone else is presumably dehydrated all the time, which works out because they have to take an elevator to find the nearest bathroom

A takeaway from this debate - pretty much all the supportive MPs quoted their constituents as to why they support trans rights. We are cutting through
Keep writing to your MPs. If you wrote last month, write again. Write to your MP until you can’t type anymore. Make our voices impossible to ignore
