Pinned
About last night… absolutely pinching myself after my incredible launch party @gaystheword.bsky.social which has always been a special place from when I first moved to London 16 years ago.

And today it's the turn of The Times to try and patronise us all.

Every single day the right wing establishment tries to close ranks.

And every day we are growing.

At this point, it is impossible to not put quotes around "ceasefire."
How many times has Israel violated the Gaza ceasefire? Here are the numbers
Since the ceasefire took effect one month ago, Israeli attacks have killed at least 242 Palestinians and injured 622.

the entirety of the british press talked themselves into believing this woman is trans based almost entirely on JK Rowling's judgement of the athlete's appearance.
Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

Hahahah. It is such a scam.
ICYMI: Microsoft’s charge “implies a more than $12 billion quarterly loss at OpenAI, said Firoz Valliji, an analyst at Bernstein.”

That “would mark one of the largest single-quarter losses for a tech company in history.”

I tried to navigate to this page from the BBC home page and the news home page but couldn't, so I'll give #r4today people an opportunity to see it. Ironically, it needed corrections, including replacing "trans ideology" with "trans identity."

Will the BBC ever learn?

We have to talk more how transphobia has taken strong root among well-to-do journalists & politicians when in both the UK & US, the evidence is that voters do not share it.

The demographics of transphobia are people least likely to suffer prejudice in their lives. Richer, maler, whiter, straighter.
Spanberger’s GOP foe spent 57% of her ad budget on anti-trans attacks. Spanberger focused on the economy. You see what won. trib.al/fkMmsR4

The simple truth told time and time again in the polls: The public doesn’t care about trans issues. Voters care deeply about the economy, inflation, & prices.

Also the point where the BBC have commissioned a 6 PART SERIES on Clanchygate & it appears to include:

*no citations of the racist or ableist material from the book
*no involvement of the writers who called the book out & were serially harassed & threatened
*the return of "the right to offend"
🤮
Ah I see we’ve reached the point in the timeline where publishers are now apologising for criticising racism and ableism in the books they publish rather than addressing those issues or not monetising them in the first place…how novel? www.bbc.com/news/article...
Publisher apologises for 'the hurt' it caused Kate Clanchy over controversy
Kate Clanchy was accused of using racist descriptions of children in her book.

Tom Hanks explains to Stephen Colbert why he masks on the subway:

"I'm doing a play right now so I cannot get sick... I've had COVID enough in my life, I don't need to do that again. So I'm wearing this for health reasons."

Thank you Tom! Masks are still a key part of public health.

My son is on blockers legally from before the ban and we did everything they told us to do and now we are being threatened with social services if we don't allow them to "safely withdraw" medication. They admit that the impact will be "stark" for our kids but they are going to do it anyway.

NHS Sussex are forcibly detransitioning trans people. These patients need full restoration of their healthcare, and everyone involved in doing this needs to be sacked.
