british journalism and british media are the poison seeping into the country’s flesh and we would all be better off without them
Radio 4 and BBC and Channel 4 News and all the papers completely skewing the Peggie story so your average person will have no idea what actually happened. Doesn’t this make you furious? Integrity in journalism is dead, not just in the US

The most important political fault line of our time is over whether children are people or property.
This whole so-called “parents rights” movement the right has taken up and the left is supposed to kowtow to for votes is so obviously anti-child it really bothers me to see it presented as anything other than justification for abusive “parenting” and disregard for actual science on child development

To all the late transitioners out there:

Thank you for helping to normalize late-in-life transition.

Your openness took away so much of my fear, allowing me to finally see my own transition as a valid and hopeful possibility.

It was brought to my attention that the Frankenstein Agent of S.H.A.D.E holiday story I collaborated on with the brilliant @pauljholden.com is now on the DCU Infinite Service as a DC GO Vertical scrolling comic. I love this story, I loved working with PJ and maybe you will love it too!

My thread earlier focused on the discussion re. FWS - but I just want to draw this out really explicitly:

The press absolutely monstered Dr Beth Upton in the most appalling way – only for the Tribunal to find that Beth had done nothing wrong, but that Sandie Peggie had harassed her.
Also worth noting, the Tribunal found that Sandie Peggie had harassed Dr Beth Upton in a "hate incident".

Now rewatching the 1988 holiday classic “Scrooge’s” directed by Richard Donner. Featuring Bill Murray, Karen Allen, Alfre Woodard, Carol Kane, Bobcat Goldthwait, Robert Mitchum, John Forsythe and many more. Saw this in the theater when it came out.

HR departments countrywide need to start treating gendercrit employees as potentially hostile. As soon as you are required to interact with one, you dust off the rulebook, you dot every eye and cross every t, and you assume bad faith at every turn.

They are a threat to every organisation.

It’s interesting how Seven was angry and passive aggressive for a chunk of PIC S3, but she isn’t called emotional like Burnham.

Both characters have emotional reactions to situations that are understandable, but as a society we see crying as weakness.

DC have published a celebratory work for the 30th Anniversary of The Death of Superman - this 'Absolute Edition' is packed with detail and replica items, and I was honoured to contribute a chapter about our BBC Radio 'Superman Doomsday & Beyond" audio version which ran concurrently with the comics.

One reason I'm sorry to see @kellythompson.bsky.social's Birds of Prey go is that it feels like the first comic we've gotten with a fully realized Cassandra Cain, as the sum of all she's endured, and all her ambition. In all but name, in this series, she was 100% Batman.

Putting money in Rowling's pocket is also why we ignore press releases from comics events that include Potter programming. It's funding her hate. I'd implore every creator/publisher/potential guest to consider this when approached by those cons. - Andy

I have a lot of uncomplicated, socialist thoughts about the industry. But rather than air out my grievances, I will remind everyone that if you're someone who donates money, the HERO Initiative is a creator run emergency fund that specifically helps comic people in trouble.

Harlow––winner of the drag competition in 1968's THE QUEEN, subject of Crystal LaBeija's epic rant––did get the hell back to Philadelphia. There, she dated Grace Kelly's brother, ran nightclubs, and was treated as a local trans celebrity.

Harlow's still here
Fifty years ago, Harlow was the queen of Philadelphia nightlife, Jack Kelly’s girlfriend, and the city's most famous transgender woman. Today, she’s ready to tell her story.

Anyone who says “be normal” betrays that they have an implicit value system of who is considered normal and who is not, and when you have that, you will always value some people and traits over another. They will always replicate hierarchies of power in the long run.
