Most peculiar 🤔

@stokeybookshop.bsky.social seemed distinctly disgusted to make a transaction with me when I went to buy the latest book from bestselling author JK Rowling (AKA Robert Galbraith)

Its in stock- much to the apparent shame of the man who served me - but not on display anywhere...

I hope the Politicians who are supporting organisations which go into primary schools and encourage children to falsify their material reality and embrace delusions about gender are utterly utterly ashamed of themselves.

I noticed flying back from Mexico that British Airways hasn't reflected Trump's renaming of this body of water...

Times reports Labour is shelving plan to make gender change easier

Sex Matters' Helen Joyce: “If this news is correct, we welcome it with great relief. We’ve long argued that any change that makes it easier to obtain gender recognition certificates risks introducing self-ID through the back door."
