I've seen so many Palestinian fundraisers and I'm concerned that some of them are scammers exploiting the current genocide.

There's a list of fundraisers that have been vetted so you know the money is going to Palestinians.

Well this story just keeps getting worse. Well done Labour, well done police.

"one of the women—Ayeshah Behit—was denied anti-seizure medication during her arrest and told that she wouldn’t be released if she kept asking for it. Anyone who knows anything about epilepsy knows how dangerous this is."
Palestine supporters have convictions for "harassing MP" overturned
In one of the UK’s more disturbing shifts towards authoritarianism, two supporters of Palestine were convicted in June of harassing an MP because they dared challenge her on Gaza.

I really need cis people to understand that for decades access to trans healthcare was about presenting and pandering in a very narrow, exact and specific way to meet a cis doctors fetishistic projections without them claiming it is instead your fetish.

how did you masturbate as a child, do dresses and makeup excite you, did you only want to play with dolls and be a good housewife, have you attended this appointment dressed like the doctors ideal tradwife, were you overly or sexually attached to a parent.

If your take from how German political parties acted during the Weimar Republic is “the fascists weren’t stopped because of left infighting, for which both the liberals and the radicals are equally to blame,” I have a Brandenburg Gate to sell you

FWIW, "yours for the restoration of the Republic" was a common salutation American fascists gave to each other in the 1950s and 1960s. This is from a 1952 letter by Ohio white supremacist terrorist Peter Xavier. The rest of the rhetoric here might be familiar too.

GNU Terry Pratchett
He was very good in person with his trans fans too. Growing up going to SF cons, I met many trans people before I even knew what trans meant. I gave my parents very little they needed to accept in their child, so they had lots left over for everyone else. 😉 www.thepinknews.com/2021/08/06/t...

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay

“Men said things like "peace in our time" or "an empire that will last a thousand years," and less than half a lifetime later no one even remembered who they were, let alone what they had said or where the mob had buried their ashes.”
Discworld QOTD, from Moving Pictures

‘“Twas beauty killed the beast,” said the Dean, who liked to say things like that.

“No it wasn’t,” said the Chair. “It was splatting into the ground like that.”’
Discworld QOTD, from Unseen Academicals

“The Librarian was not familiar with love, which had always struck him as a bit ethereal and soppy, but kindness, on the other hand, was practical. You knew where you were with kindness, especially if you were holding a pie it had just given you.”

1. are you fucking serious

2. go fuck yourselves

Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car.

BIG crowd of people shouting at police.

"Fuck you!"

"What is wrong with you!"

"You don't need to terrorize people like this!"
