Well if there’s one thing we learned about Trump this week it’s that he likes his Democrats hung. He’s been full-throated about that.

Fixed it for you. Idiots! If the exclusion is based on appearance then it will certainly impact cis folks as well as trans folks.

Seems like based on my amazon wishlist amazon have sent me a kids gift book guide with stickers and that to create my perfect Christmas gift list.

This is a heretofore unplumbed depth of autism for me.

I have some proper grown up decisions to make. I am definitely not avoiding it and looking at adoptable dogs. Nope, definitely not.

The Covid Inquiry finds that if Boris Johnson had called the first lockdown even one week earlier then it could have saved at least 20,000 lives.

Here's a quick reminder of what Johnson was actually doing during those weeks

Well, I for one am utterly shocked that Boris Johnson was completely incompetent during COVID and then lied through his arse at every subsequent stage. Who could have possibly known.

I do love a @mitchbenn.bsky.social episode and this one is fab! Loved the Bastard/Bitch books as a kid - the only benefit to being the youngest in the whole family was getting my hands on them! Also won a game of Mike Read’s Pop Quiz using ‘Belouis’ ‘Some’ as an answer. *smug face*
New! Mitch Benn (@mitchbenn.bsky.social) joins me for a chat about How To Be A Complete Bastard by Adrian Edmondson, Space Sentinels, Maskatron, Imagination by 'Belouis' 'Some', Channel 4's launch previews, the revival of The Saint with Simon Dutton and more...

Today is Trans Day of Remembrance. Since 31st October 2024, at least 340 trans people have lost their lives to anti-trans violence, or suicide. Transphobia kills. Please be an ally every day. tdor.translivesmatter.info/reports?from...

This is the version of the post that everyone needs to see. And all you readers/authors despairing of non-comprehension, etc, we are gaining new fans of fantasy and SF. It might not be the fantasy or SF you personally read, but they're reading and buying where they weren't before.
It hits different reading this whole thread.

Exactly this

See people saying "Scientists need to rebuild trust" and my reaction is invariably "Ex-fucking-SCUSE me?!?"

Countless influential powers keep metaphorically urinating all over scientists and then we get told "You guys need to stop stinking of piss if you want to be taken seriously"??
I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.
