25, 000 people protest for trans rights. Media, nothing.

One person uses chalk to write on a statue. Media, front page.

Congratulations to the team at @lastweektonight.com for a sensitive and informed exploration of Trans athletes in sports.
This week’s main story is about trans athletes, where the conversation around them is coming from, the nuances around competition and safety, and where it looks like things might be going. Full segment at the link in our bio.

We need to normalise, in media, on socials and in face to face conversations, saying 'This is a stupid conversation and I'm not going to continue it.'

28 December 1974: Tom Baker made his debut as the Doctor in the story "Robot". His tenure was to last for seven years and he remains the longest serving actor in the role. Tom became a hero for a generation. #DoctorWho #TomBaker

Stephen Fry has gone from “National Treasure” to “Dawkins-equivalent” in a very short period of time.

Good job we have Sandi Toksvig to fill the void.

The press release is deranged and contains numerous errors (JRM for example voted for agreements that included ECJ oversight). Would be nice if the current government pointed this out.
To my point yesterday…doesn’t matter what Labour actually does, this is how it will be reported/weaponised…

They should make a sequel to Taron Egerton’s new film where he tries other jobs so rather than being an airport security guard he could be a Cabbie, a Nurse maybe even a Matron…
