I didn't understand the actual joke for a second and thought this was was some new playwright at the royal court that I hadn't heard of

I tried to write a parody response like 'the wokerati would cancel numberwang' but I just know Gl1nner has probably already said something like this already

Not many people know that AA Milne had a much smaller brother called AAA Milne

These are the reasons the Supreme Court gave for refusing to hear from the trans intervenors (whilst agreeing to hear from many transphobes).

None.

Our legal team of three barristers included two who are now KCs.

Maybe it's just straight to the point

Because the news is miserable at the moment, I decided to be a bit silly

H.G.WELLS, THE ENGLISH NOVELIST PLAYING AN INDOOR WARGAME (From a Drawing by S. Begg in the Illustrated London News) "Mr. Wells has developed his game so that the country over which the campaign is to be fought is laid out in any desired manner, with the aid of branches of shrubs as trees, with cardboard bridges, rocks, chalked-out rivers, streams and fords, cardboard forts, barracks, houses, and what not; there are employed leaden infantrymen and cavalrymen, and guns firing wooden cylinders about an inch long, capable of hitting a toy soldiers nine times out of ten at a distance of nine yards, and having a screw adjustment for elevation and depression. There are strict rules governing the combat. Before the battle begins, the country is divided by the drawing of a curtain across it for a short time, so that the general of each opposing army may dispose of his forces without the enemy's being aware of that disposition. Then the curtains are drawn back and the campaign begins. All moves of men and guns are timed. An infantryman moves not more than a foot at a time, a cavalryman not more than two feet, and a gun, according to whether cavalry or infantry are with it, from one to two feet. Mr. Wells is seen on the left of the drawing, taking a measurement with a length of string, to determine the distance some of his forces may move. On the right and left are seen the curtains for dividing the country before beginning the game."

Ok, except one of the major themes of the play is about how trans people and cis people relate to each other. So forgive me for being horrendously boring but I did cast trans people as the trans characters. We also had many trans people audition for cis characters, which was encouraged.

Reminder Starmer used the murder of Brianna Ghey to attack Sunak.

He was quite happy to acknowledge trans people when he needed a disposable attack line, the spineless coward.

and the same sorts of people say this means that trans people are horrible vandals who are attacking women and we deserve to have our human rights taken away. Funny that!!! (3/3)

and it should never have been built, and the money should have gone on real people, BUT ALSO the Brian Clough statue got a bit of paint on it during the trans rights protest, (2/3)

The stance on women and statues in Nottingham is so fucking confusing. Right wing reactionaries say that the new Standing in This Place statue, celebrating the role of women in Nottingham's history, was a total waste of money (1/3)

So far I have contacted @whatthetrans.com , but there must be more!

Anyone know of any trans/LGBTQIA+ podcasts that focus on performing arts, or interviews w artists? Looking to publicise my upcoming production of trans play The Prince, which is the second ever UK staging of it, and only the third staging internationally.
