Here's where we are in terms of how society views infectious diseases: saw a nurse today who told me that she and all the other nurses at the hospital are "immune to covid" because they "get it so much"

The average person on the street is not more educated than this, either. It's everywhere.

I'm sorry, but audiences are able to accept that there have been 7 actors over the span of 60 years all playing james bond, but you think they'll draw the line here? I don't get it
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

"Take the phone away" is the first item on the list of action recommended by anti-trans parents' orgs.
Do you not think it's bizarre to have strangers on the internet decide they know better than Brianna's own loved ones on what is or isn't insulting to her memory?

I've got no time for Rosie Duffield, but she turned up at a drop-in event in Parliament and that's been the limit of her involvement.

it's pretty obvious that esther ghey so desperately wants to make her daughter's death about her phone use, as is typical for so many parents who try to turn every single issue that child faces to have somehow been caused by whatever gripe they have with them.

It just dawned on me. This means trans kids will have no support in schools. The Labour government brought in Section 28 2.0 so school staff can't be there to support trans kids. Now they are cutting off contact with the outside world. So for the duration of school trans kids are alone. Truly sick.

this is a spit in the face to brianna ghey's memory and anyone supporting this should be ashamed of themselves
On Brianna's 19th birthday, this morning I joined @cheshirepcc.bsky.social and the Brianna Ghey Legacy Project Phone Free Education campaign at the launch at Jodrell Bank of a new £150k initiative to make Cheshire the first county in the UK where ALL state high schools have lockable phone pouches.

The more this farcical anti-phone charade goes on, the more I’m convinced that Esther Ghey was/is actually transphobic, resented the fact that Brianna was trans, and blamed the phone/social media for making her trans. It’s the only logical explanation I can come up with to explain this bullshit.

Nothing like a costly, peformative, ineffective measure that completely ignores the real problem, because tackling UK transphobia would require accepting that bigoted, corrupted politics and the UK media are the real problem faced by trans kids & adults in the UK.

What the hell.

I posted on my main about being suicidal like two weeks ago. (It was true then, though it was situational not clinical.) I haven’t posted much of anything in the last couple weeks at all. I’ve just been reposting, mostly. And they don’t say which post I made was responsible.

nate silver used two jabs at disabled people (AE’s eugenic ad & the concept of social distancing, a tool even anticovid activists rarely default to in 2025) to try to paint users of this website as ignoring one of the most devastating blows to healthcare policy and thus disabled people. pathetic.

interesting how aiding russia is never called "heating up the war" even though they're the ones who started it
🇸🇰 Slovakia found an excuse and calls the loan "heating up the war" that will prolong the conflict.

🇭🇺 And only Hungary is not inventing anything, but simply constantly blocking everything that should help Ukraine.

➡️ That is, there is no common solution.

maybe she was on her phone so much because offline her peers were excluding, harassing, assaulting and trying to kill her? if she didn't have phone it's possible she would have died earlier, at least online she had a community.

it's funny how much paul's argument hinges on the idea that women have naturally longer hair than men, as if women's longer hair is a biological sex characteristic rather than a cultural norm.
