I've seen so many people fall into the trap of ceding ground on immigration by agreeing that "illegals" shouldn't be allowed. But it's never about a legal pathway. It's about racism and white supremacy.

"Culturally coherent" isn't even a dog whistle ffs -- it's loud and clear.

Do you think it's the same consultants who convinced Essex uni to go with "impatient" as their marketing keyword for almost three years, and produced this abomination?

Feels like a good day to share my favourite Columbus shade, thrown by seventeenth-century wife guy the Duke of Newcastle in a poem written for his wife - Margaret Cavendish - and her incredible work The Blazing World

"That Columbus guy just stumbled upon a continued but you MADE a WORLD, babe"

If sex can't be determined by a quick visual assessment (which, I agree, it can't!), how do you propose to identify who does and doesn't fit your definition of "female"? Am I submitting to genetic analysis every time I need the loo?

All conferences should be followed by a week of holiday... jumping late on the bandwagon to celebrate #shax2025! A special thank you to my fellow panelists @drpetekirwan.bsky.social, MJ Kidnie, & Ray Proctor -- it's an honour to share space and think with you all
