This song by Hemlocke Springs rips. As does the whole album tbf, first great pop record I've heard in 2026.

Remarkable how this paragraph refuses to join the dots between a ban on puberty blockers and avoidable surgeries / medical interventions.

Yet another case of GCs trying to scare people off transition by citing the hostile circumstances they've themselves created.

I cannot wait for Labour to get annihilated at the ballot box.

It probably won't be for this when they do, but I'll be happy as long as they're eating shit.

All I searched for was 'Bristol world-class'.

I know we're an open-minded freaky bunch round here, but I didn't realise we were /that/ good at it.

Edithโ€™s Diary: Drew Daniel on Creating Art under Fascism | The Quietus Drew Daniel of The Soft Pink Truth & Matmos asks an existential question of himself, what good is making music under fascism?

Great article by @drewdaniel.bsky.social for @thequietus.com articulating the feeing of dissonance as a music creator in dark times & instinctively drawn to the acoustic from the electronic. I'll add to that, a profound sense of an impending techno-regression. ๐Ÿ”ฎ

neolithic guys get pissed if you tell them their cultures are organized by the type of pots and jewelry they made. "we called ourselves the blood hunters" "we conquered villages far beyond this horizon" sorry bud you're the western linear pottery culture now

If Labour fail to persuade enough people to vote for them then that's their failing, not the voters'. I will never vote for a party that stands for xenophobia, transphobia, and hammering the disabled & deprived. That way still leads to fascism.

If the best that can be said for Labour is that they're not fascists then it's a very sorry state of affairs. And even then you've got a job on your hands persuading people that's true.

BASH BACK

The Free Speech Union commissioned a "security" report on us, so we tested their security. Turns out - it sucks.

We've now published the names of everyone who has donated to a FSU fundraiser, along with how much they gave and to which campaign.

Well, they *said* they wanted this trial. But only because they knew how it'd look if they'd said outright "We claim there's no good evidence, and we're ideologically opposed to any science that could produce some".

All about steadily chipping away rather than asking for the full hate in one go.

As the trans community have known for a while now - the definition of activist is someone who dares to state they exist

The 28% voting against the other amendment is the more telling figure on that front - much less room for nuance in being explicitly against committing to trans liberation.

A positive outcome all the same though, there are few enough parties out there showing any form of support right now.

Transgender, or trans, is an umbrella term for a person whose gender identity differs from their sex recorded at birth. A person born male who lives as a female, would typically be described as a โ€œtransgender womanโ€ and would take the pronoun โ€œsheโ€. And vice versa. We generally use the term and pronoun preferred by the person in question, unless there are editorial reasons not to do so.

Worth noting the BBCโ€™s own style guide entry for 'gender/sex' (from www.bbc.co.uk/newsstylegui...).

Hard to see an editorial justification for their recent wording, other than โ€˜our editors are transphobesโ€™.
