I've started a blog! My very first post is joining in the Hexmas Blogwagon by Prismatic Wasteland. (It is christmassy, in a catholic way, maybe not Rankin Bass-esque but it does have a headless cleric class to unlock, if you'll indulge me)

The UK govt: "Hmm, we might have to ban VPNs & a whole range of otehr basic privacy safeguards, to Protect The Children, y'know."

Also the UK govt: "It's perfectly fine to let Nazi billionaire & friend of Epstein Peter Thiel trawl through the entire corpus of NHS personal data on your children."

This means we’re going back to very aggressive cross examination of victims in sex crime cases, all the way back to the bad old days with the horror stories you’ve heard about women’s sexual histories being pored over in minute detail.
Supreme Court says Scottish courts risking right to fair trial in sex cases
The highest court in the country said there must be a change to how evidence about the credibility or sexual behaviour of alleged victims is used.

People in the UK aren't getting transphobia from weird niche online communities.

They're getting it from the prime minister, the BBC, politicians and the newspapers in every newsagents in the country.
when this piece of shit is asked what good phone pouches are supposed to do, shs responds glibly about online radicalisation. where else would children learn to be transphobic in the tolerant UK, after all? ridiculous
On Brianna's 19th birthday, this morning I joined @cheshirepcc.bsky.social and the Brianna Ghey Legacy Project Phone Free Education campaign at the launch at Jodrell Bank of a new £150k initiative to make Cheshire the first county in the UK where ALL state high schools have lockable phone pouches.

Similar to the Hinsliff article about GenX radicalisation. Beam. Own eye. Speck in others. No understanding
What's fascinating here is that as she rhymes off the list of gender critical people at Newsnight pursuing an explicitly gender critical agenda, in the context of a discussion of ideological capture at the BBC, she doesn't recognise that she was part of the ideological capture of the BBC by GCs.

Yup. Realistically, there haven't actually been any additional trans rights of note since 2004. What people mean is "seeing more trans people in public and on TV and being expected to be respectful to/about them".
"The wide-ranging polling on attitudes also suggested the proportion of the public feeling transgender rights have gone "too far" has more than doubled in five years" I WISH there was a follow-up question as to what new trans rights they think have come in over say, I dunno, the last 15 years?

Christmas has come early!!!
