Its fascinating that the law apparently now trumps scientific biological fact. Once again, I am glad I did not vote for the cowards within this Labour government

It’s times like this when you realise how backwards the mainstream is… in almost every publications there’s articles about fascism and authoritarianism and autocracy… I feel gifted with foresight because I’ve seeing the signs for like 10 years and reading about it and I’m only a therapist in the UK

So they are apparently introducing anti-misogyny classes into schools. As you may imagine comments beneath are going all lives matter on this with “well it should misogyny and misandry”… heres my issue… both are wrong. Both should be combatted. One is far more deadly than the other

I think it helps to speak with Queer elders.
They have a wealth of experience and knowledge.

I feel like more people need to be aware of the quote from the AIDS crisis “Bury your friends in the morning, protest in the afternoon, and dance all night.” To continue to find joy is an act of revolution itself.

I used to say the Tories knew the cost of everything and the value of nothing. I believe the same can be said for the Labour Government as well

For about a year before the election last July, Labour consistently said they would be more competent and deliver. That was their message. They didn't say they would be competent and deliver a different program than the Tories. They said they would do what the Tories were doing but better...

I didn’t vote for Labour because I did not remotely believe they would stand up for LGBT+ folk beyond slogans and BS rhetoric. It’s always sad to be right time after time

I am listening to Irvin Yalom’s new book and honestly I feel like I get so much closer to the essence of therapy than any actual textbook on the topic.
I think therapy, especially in the UK, needs to shift towards his type of books over expensive textbooks with their academic layouts

Also going Star Wars nerd for a moment: I keep seeing people say Jedi were not wiped out by Order 66 because these characters survived… if you go from 10,000 Jedi to like less than 100, I think that equals wiped out

British media: why are reform polling so high?
Me: because all you do is give a party with 5 MPs the same airtime and column inches as the official opposition with over 100 MPs. How does Farage get a call in session on LBC with 5 MPs.

Human beings have rights. Books, even 'holy' books, do not.
The only acceptable response to religiously motivated violence like this is for societies to reassert the importance of human rights, human lives, and freedom of expression.

At no point, should a state be allowed to execute its own citizens for any reason other than the preservation of life so armed police defend themselves or civilians. That is why there should be strict rules and ethics around those choices. The death penalty should never be legal again in the UK.
