Actually fuck this shit. I've spent half the day blocking MAGA morons and now this understated part of Twitter toxicity is here too. I'm not hanging around somewhere that's already becoming a club where everyone's invited but the autistic kid. I've had enough of that shit.

Having the EHRC acting as an impartial party is about as credible as saying Roland Freisler's Volksgericht trials were impartial.

Yeah. The person who sexually assaulted my gf when she was a young child was a man known to the family. Pillar of the community type.

50 years later, that PTSD was still there and landed her in hospital. There was a man in the women's ward who killed her. Not trans, not an intruder, but the doctor.

I'd never heard of this Dr Oz until yesterday, but given the reputation he seems to have, I'd say Dr Nick was more qualified and certainly more well-meaning.

Oz sounds like he'd be Mengele if only he wasn't so thick.

Johnson's an odious little twerp, isn't he. He'll definitely be on a one-way trip to the hell he believes in, but that may not be for some time, sadly.

Some were sent to Europe, too, and I didn't know until recently that they were conscripted. They did the same job as the men (though the PR was quite heavily controlled; this is the only photo I know of to date with one of them carrying a gun) for which they got ⅔rds of the pay.

It's not that long since women weren't allowed to take out loans without a man's consent; within my lifetime here in the UK, and I'm not *that* old. Also normal for women to be paid ⅔rds of a man's rate for doing exactly the same job with the same experience.

Oh dear. Yet another creep with too much time on their hands.

Or "you can't change sex!" which is what transitioning is about: I was shit at roleplaying someone else so I eventually stopped. I think the word "transition" is kinda misleading in that sense.

Funny how none of them can really say what they mean by "biological", especially the ones who think "define woman!" is some sort of gotcha.

I'm disappoint to find that even Patient Access is using the idiotic term "biological sex" now. Its definition is what you were apparently born as.

Oh yeah, "compelled speech", that was some of the other stupid bollocks I was trying to think of. But apparently compelled listening is just fine, as long as it's them doing the free speaking.
November 21, 2024 at 1:23 PM
Few of the Freeze Peach Brigade understand there's a difference between free speech and compelling others to listen. Which is strange given how many of them chant "I will not comply!" and other stupid bollocks.

I think there's a way to un-worsen it but I currently have no idea how. Seems to be a bit of a family history of it tho'.

With me it's specifically wheat, with gluten or not. I think it's just my body being a bastard and spoiling things I like. The utter bastard.

Oh, yeah, I keep forgetting who's in charge (of the Observer at least) and the horrid celebrity columnists who also seem to be on rotation at the more conspicuously right-wing rags. :|
November 21, 2024 at 1:08 PM
I'm the same with wheat. I've spent the past year or so surviving mostly on biscuits and my intestines are objecting so vigorously the doctor is worried about me. But I *like* biscuits.

You must have the cheese. Cheddar is awesome.

Can you imagine how furious she'd be? Then again I suppose we don't need to, we've seen all the "I'm not trans/straight/white/neurotypical/whatevs, I'm *normal*" sort of comments from the usual types. ugh.

Much better writer in terms of storytelling but also readability, and he was a thoroughly decent human being too.
November 21, 2024 at 12:42 PM
I had a so-called "ally" (self-styled and very conspicuously so) get very pissy with me for objecting to R*owling; and the objection wasn't even to or about her, but she still deigned to lecture me to "find something else to protest about, my kids like HP". Fail.
November 21, 2024 at 12:40 PM
"Identifies as" is so unnecessarily demeaning. Which is why they do it.
November 21, 2024 at 12:20 PM
Yikes.

There's a certain amount of something-or-other that the actual Nazis would've found somewhere special to send these horrible scrotes, but it's still rather nasty and says everything anyone needs to know about them.

I went to school with a pupil who stole a Mars bar from the local shop. Obviously our education system is teaching criminality and should be banned.

I wonder when we can expect a similar article "slamming" someone for making contributions to the Conservative Party after some (or rather many) of its senior members have been involved in sex-related scandals and impropriety. Any day now, I'm certain...
