The fact that it has taken so long is beyond me.
It is over for the genocide deniers.
Even the BBC is now splashing on the UN commission of inquiry concluding that Israel has committed genocide.
Those who supported Israel's onslaught:
You backed a genocide.
You will never scrub the shame away.

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia #IDAHOBIT. As a British bisexual cisgender man, I can't help but worry about the recently released ranking of LGBTQ+ Rights, which shows that the UK has plummeted to the 22nd position. For context, the UK was 1st in 2015.

![Screenshot of this quote: "The accessibility is better too: I’d recommend accessing Settings, find the Accessibility section, and toggle the switch marked ‘Require alt-text before posting’ and you can create accessible content every time. You can also add alt-text (and indeed captions) to videos – finally a social network which offers this… Here’s a great resource on how to write alt-text descriptions, if you want to brush up."
