Being on BlueSky and not Twitter, I sometimes forget just how ridiculous anti-trans activists are, and then I see one post something like “genders hadn’t been invented when I was born”, and all I can do is question how they got to this point in life.

Fun fact: The ECU actually used the phrase “trans identity”, not “trans ideology”, and, in editing that quote, this BBC article about a presenter expressing anti-trans views breaching editorial guidelines has itself breached editorial guidelines. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It is utterly insane to claim that BBC News has a “pro-trans bias”, when they are currently publishing articles in which they describe trans women as “a biological male who identifies as a woman”. That isn’t them quoting anyone, that is them choosing to use the language of gender critical bigots.

A brief response to @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social talking about the Supreme Court ruling regarding trans people (and, as is always necessary nowadays, an endorsement of @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the Green Party).

Interesting that the Metropolitan Police appear to have decided, based on the Graham Linehan case, that inciting violence is no longer a crime, despite no change in the law happening since he was arrested. Insane the level the British state will go to protect transphobes.

Can’t wait for Keir Starmer to criticise the Israeli police for being antisemitic by stopping Jewish supporters from enjoying a football match.

Obviously a slip of the tongue, but I think “she champions the erosion of women’s rights” might be the first honest thing a supporter of JK Rowling has ever said about her.

I sincerely question whether this “headline”, the way it is presented, completely lacking in any objectivity or neutrality, is a suitable, appropriate or acceptable use of the BBC News ticker. It’s a quote stoking racial tensions by a desperate politician, presented as a statement of fact.

Probably just an electrical hum you can hear coming from the lights because of how fucking empty and quiet it is, mate.

It’s funny, because what Sarah Vine is saying in this paragraph is absolutely true, she is just too lacking in self-awareness to realise that she’s actually talking about herself, JK Rowling, Graham Linehan, and every other subscriber to anti-trans ideology.

Graham Linehan wouldn’t be able to make Father Ted today because
1. he’s already made it.
2. he’s too busy spending time harassing trans people on Twitter to bother writing comedy (or, indeed, having a family) any more.

I think my reply here, in a discussion about trans rights, basically sums up why I think the constant call for “civil debate” in politics is stupid, pointless and futile.

Like, come on, @zarahsultana.bsky.social, it isn’t difficult to find an actual picture of Chris Tarrant hosting Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. He did it for ages. What is this shit? How can we trust a “left-wing” party that throws artists and creatives under the bus by using AI slop?

AI slop. Took less than a week for me to be disappointed in our new left-wing party. An impressive record, I suppose.
