The BBC is really showing its arse with its editorial guidelines recommending the use of a pseudoscientific dogwhistle in reporting that mentions trans people.
It's important that they're not allowed to continue using fake-scientific insults in peace.

‘Biological male’ is a pseudoscientific dogwhistle
The BBC should be better than this.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

In rural areas of the county, people would visit their bees hives at midnight on Christmas Eve to hear the bees “sing their Christmas carols” in celebration of Christ’s birth.

I hope fans of stiles know that they are notorious for attracting ghosts and malevolent spirits on Halloween, as such creatures are drawn to boundary lines. Many mentions in @folklorewales.com book on Welsh ghosts!

Everything is fine
When viewing the fake article in Google scholar on my university network, there is a link to access the article via my uni's library. That link sends me to a library page that makes fake article appear real... Turns out library page is made programmatically from info on Google scholar 🤦

To oppose trans people's rights and freedoms you break so many social contracts. We keep saying that trans rights are human rights, but conversely, human rights are trans rights, because the second you decide some people don't deserve the same rights and freedoms as others? You start to lose it all.

Talking about the Yule Goat, lets talk about the Julbocken and Julebukking. There is an old Scandinavian tradition of dressing up as the Yule Goat, and going door by door singing Christmas songs and asking for candy. In Finland, the Yule Goat (Joulupukki) has the role of a gift giver, like Santa.

STILL no trans people or drag queens implicated in the Epstein Files.
Plenty of TERFs though.
It’s almost as though every “gender-critical” transphobe is trying to protect cis men who abuse women and girls by helping them distract from the real threat.

This is disgusting. Someone struggling with their memory does not need to think they've forgotten things that didn't even happen. Especially not for social media clicks.
The comments on this are all about how sweet it is and I feel insane. Using AI to make fake memories of your grandma with dementia and telling her they happened and then filming her reaction

The Christmas Fart
Roland the Farter was a jester who (according to the "Liber Feodorum") held his land in Suffolk in return for "one jump, a whistle and one fart" at King Henry II's Christmas court every year.

This is disappointing at best. Ground News market themselves as being trustworthy.
@groundnews.bsky.social Sorry guys but it happened again. Gonna need to look into this, expect questions soon.
Nobody in this story is trans or discussed as being such from what I have seen. If I'm missing something let me know.
