The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP.
They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.
They’re refusing.
Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.
Starvation as a policy choice.

I’m not convinced wishing ill is the same thing as wishing harm. Ill luck, ill fortune, etc. Hoping J K Rowling suffers bad luck is not promoting violence in any way.

it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people

How much more evidence do we need to show this report is a sham? Appleby is right, "The claims...placed in the public domain do not meet basic standards for statistical evidence." But I would argue it is his claims not those of trans campaigners that are misleading and dangerous.

my goal is to buy a cheap used car and eventually leave here. I can't be subjected to the abusive whims of my family anymore

EHRC have confirmed to me that they will not be publishing the responses to the consultation on their segregation plan. Just a report setting out the number and 'qualitative themes' of responses - allowing them to spin their own narrative with no transparency! Completely unacceptable.
