Rebecca Gellman 🩷💛💙 - Dignity & Respect stolen by UK Government.

(to the tune of "Bad Boys") 🎶 Bad cops, bad cops, whatcha gonna do? Nuremberg 2's gonna come for you🎶

First they erased a ‘Protect the Dolls’ t-shirt from Strictly Come Dancing. Now they’ve erased Pride badges from University Challenge. The BBC are saying that our visibility as LGBTQ people is a political issue. Meanwhile they’ve commissioned a 2-part series on JK Rowling. Impartial? My arse!

This happened because y'all didn't object to exclusion on the basis of being trans, so the far right took that as permission to exclude on the basis of anything they like. Congratulations. You played yourselves transphobes. *slow clap*

If you're trans, you can't work in any public facing job currently without the risk of one of a couple of dozen GCs finding out about you and campaigning for you to be sacked for "doing your fetish in public" All enabled by Rowling's funding. Then they trot out "wHaT rIgHtS dOn'T yOu HaVe???"

The long-serving strongman leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, has conceded defeat in an election that pitted him and his right-wing party against a diverse student-led opposition movement that spent two years protesting his government.

Watching and doing nothing. Seize his assets, ban his travel.

This, btw, is the end result of "sure, ok, well let you say 'African-American', etc. What's the worst that can happen?"

TERF thinking exhibit #207: "Calling trans people fetishists and deviants and upskirting trans women is ok actually because Rowling says she gets death threats from trans people* and two wrongs make a right you see" * which she never actually provides evidence of.

This cannot possibly be true look up to camera look sincere

"[Meghan Markle] says story in The Sun is factually incorrect" - BBC News. A newspaper? Saying something factually incorrect? Say it ain't so!

I really need more IT departments to understand XKCD 936.

Apparently, Tommy Robinson has been crying while detailing how the media has affected his family. REALLY TOMMY? HAVE YOU FUCKING REALLY? FUCKING TAKE ALL OF THE SEATS FUCKO.

What amuses me about this whole PHP thing, is that after all the fuck ups the PHP Devs have made over the years, people are still using it as if all is good now. I thought everyone moved onto non twatty languages and interpreters by now.

Unless it's to pray for d'eath to come swiftly for him, I'll hard pass thanks.

Props to the BBC News auto subtitler, which just described the "jacked off oil field".

As the eMudhra debacle rages on, our thoughts are with the YouTube channel "8 bit keys" which is probably getting a lot of unrelated traffic today.

It's wild that we are using the phrasing "campaign to change the law for legal gender recognition in the UK" when the Gender Recognition Act is still on the books. The Government dropped the ball big style on this one, and is kicking it to the gutter hoping nobody notices.

I see nobody at the White House has yet had the gumption to explain to Trump what a cognitive test is. He still thinks it's an IQ test.

FAO @wren154.bsky.social No you fucking shit. We are not voting for any party that wants to eliminate us just because YOU'VE become scared all of a sudden. You've been scared of political consequence for 5 fucking minutes and think the rest of us should save you. Fuck right off.

Just tell the state that this is a stepping-stone debt, and not a real debt.

You know the people pushing for places like Alberta to become part of an American super-state are the SAME PEOPLE who were getting shitty about "globalism" 10 years ago, right? Nobody's talking about that.

I spat out my peppermint tea 🤭

THIS is how you deal with right wing idiots trying to start a race war. At the end the racist twat leaves knowing everyone thinks he's an idiot, and someone who hates America. h/t @reactiveashley.cat

Didn't take long for the NHS transphobic guidance to claim a life

A legal professional. Seriously, with that dosh I'd be suing the UK establishment in a class action defamation lawsuit.

I am once again asking desktop application developers to stop using custom scrollbars that are so tiny only fleas can click on them.

Seeing a lot of this kind of "discourse" lately: Ally: Buying Harry Potter is supporting genocide. You're k!lling trans people. Transphobe: LMAO Ima buy all the Potter now! Media: These people have legitimate concerns.

AAAAAAND as usual, the media goes with "Controverial views" and then lists the views that are not controversial in the slightest, quietly sidestepping "Rowling said trans women are fetishists and deviants and upskirting them is OK".

This, but the UK Labour party

The lack of self awareness is off the scale here.

Hey Facebook, slow me internalised homophobia. *bip bip*

I am once again reminding you that I have a VERY Tim Minchian opinion of the Pope.

Gloria Hunniford. $REASONS

I'm just going to assume that no trans people will be spoken to for this.

I am calling for everyone to respond to gender criticals by saying "cisgender" repeatedly, in the same way as they unnecessarily use gendered terms and "YWNBAW".

At some point we need to stop classifying people like Charlie Downes as "people with legitimate concerns" and correctly refer to them as "campaigners for Aryan Britain".

They aren't? Because whenever I see one there's garbage behind the wheel.

this didn't seem to be the far rights position when i was making jokes about charlie kirk.

I hope you share and this makes people seriously think about our society!

"I was hoping you didn't know what Zionism was and I could convince you to be racist like me, but you actually have a brain so having called me out I'm going to run away now and find a Tory to vote for." - this guy.

Farage repeatedly lost attempts to enter Parliament as a party leader and I don't remember the media rushing to tell him to step down. If anything, they spent more time grilling whoever beat him over the increase in UKIP's vote and narrow majority and how they'd placate the Far-Right to combat that.

“If you don’t like public executions just don’t watch it” says the crowd trying to ban drag shows and books

#JusticeForFullSizeKeyboards

“Respect existence or expect resistance” Totally unrelated: 1.Fill a large container about half-way with gasoline (diesel works best). 2.Break a Styrofoam (polystyrene) plate into small pieces. 3.Add the pieces to the gasoline mixture and stir. 4.apply generously to rapist 5. Profit

This. For those not in the know, Hilary Clinton was chastised (and some say it cost her the election) for saying Trump voters were a "basket of deplorables". Those same people are saying NOTHING about the shit Trump comes out with.
