Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

. @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social says Labour has “been dragged in the wrong direction” on trans+ issues.
“Our party must completely reject the tired narrative that trans people are a threat... It wasn’t true about gay men in the ‘80s, and it is not true about the trans community now.”

you don’t have to engage in the gaslighting. simply say ‘it was a nazi salute’ and refuse to engage in the preposterous claim that he was ‘throwing his heart to the crowd’ or whatever
it was a nazi salute. the ppl claiming otherwise know it was too. you don’t need to spend the day arguing with them

Just tried to look up the LD50 for estradiol.
It says, “>2000mg per kilogram (rat)”
Which tells me that they gave up when the rat was full.

Remember those pictures of “Saudi conference on women’s rights” full of only men?
Did you react with amused horror?
What about “LGBT” sponsored “debates” on trans people where the only panelists are cis transphobes?
Same shit.

Having not read the sentencing remarks, I’m cautious about rushing to conclusions, but on its face Feathers McGraw appears to be a prime example of the rampant sentence inflation that has led to chronic overcrowding in our zoos and the unedifying spectacle of animals being released early.
Curious to know whether
@barristersecret.bsky.social thinks 30 years behind bars for robbery and attempted murder was a fair sentence for Feathers McGraw? It seems a bit steep #WallaceAndGromit

If the Depp-Heard fiasco didn't, the Blake Lively smear campaign should drive home an important media literacy lesson that I'm afraid many are missing: when it seems like everybody is suddenly talking about something, consider the possibility that the viral moment was engineered.
