HELLO I WAS A QUEER TEEN IN THE 1990s AND THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST SOCIAL TRANSITION NOW ARE INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST "LETTING" US BE (at the time, for me) GAY OR LESBIAN THEN.

They all rest on the belief that it's inherently better to be straight (then)/cis (now) and that's BS.
Hilary Cass here arguing for children to be prevented from being known by a preferred name or getting a haircut in case it encourages them to continue later in life to transition.

Hilary Cass acts like gender variant children should have the transness hazed out of them.

🚨BREAKING NEWS!

Medics that broke windows at JP Morgan HQ to expose fossil fuel financing links to climate devastation found NOT GUILTY today by jurors.

yeah anyone who thinks this is a great idea wants a five year old victim to have to choose if they want their relative to die
As a child protection professional, I can tell you the death penalty is NOT an awesome solution to child sexual abuse. Most children are abused by family members; they will not report if their family members will die as a result.

Every now and then without talking about it, me and my husband get our tabby cat and pretend we are cat show judges. We talk about her stature and get her to stand with her head and tail out, like judges do at cat shows. Then, as if normal, we carry on with our day.

I'm not going to say that measles is going to kill you.
But about 1/1000 affected will suffer an infection of the brain, of those 25% have permanent disability, usually deafness
About 1/200 with measles will have seizures
About 1/5000 will have it reactivate in the brain and kill them years later
“Measles is a nasty illness for any child, but for some it can lead to long term complications and tragically death, but is so easily preventable with two doses of the MMRV”
Protect your loved ones and those around you. Get vaccinated.
North London measles outbreak hits several schools with at least 34 children infected
A number of children have been hospitalised as officials urge families to check they are up to date with their vaccines.

“It’s profoundly harmful for a child to reject the reality of their God-given body…Safeguarding guidance should ban schools from ever facilitating this”.

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

This is right: it was clear straight away that the party was over and things were now going to get very, very nasty. And indeed, every year since has been worse - more stupid, more needlessly cruel, more exploitative, more vicious, uglier, meaner and nastier.

Big weekend for Clavicular. His cortisol levels were spiked by foids while he was jestergooning and chadfishing in the club. And then he got ragebaited by the King of Scottsdale.

Yeah it is genuinely fucking scaring me the degree to which all our cultural output about nuclear war lately seems to present it as a Struggle That Humanity Will Emerge From Stronger. We honestly cannot allow that message to propagate in our fictions, because it *will* doom us. Nuclear War is not…
Threads director Mick Jackson has expressed worry over the upcoming remake’s focus on finding “hope even in the most challenging of times.”

“That one phrase worried me,” he tells Empire. “Hope is not part of nuclear war.”

Isabel Oakeshott, the Mitford to Tice's Mosley, throws scoffing potshots at a principled Welsh university from her Dubai den, where she is an immigrant, but probably prefers to think of herself as an 'expat'.

The worst of people.
This is what we're up against. Bangor University, that fine and noble institution where I've spoken twice, nearly 150 years young and still going strong. The sheer hatred they reserve for us shows what could happen after 2029, but also that they're frightened of knowledge and learning.
