I am staring at every single goddamn LGB without the T shithead and liberal who told trans people to calm down and that we were being dramatic over how bad things would get with an intensity and cold, hard fury that would make a disappointed parent go "jesus christ"

Fascism encourages you to think it’s a spectator sport and when it’s too late you realize you’re also on the playing field and always have been.

He talks absolute sh*t but this is no different from the 'Gays Are Converting Your Children!!!!' crap of the 80s. Different focus, same lies.

Of course I bunked off school consistently anyway, so it was All For Naught. But I did learn a lot from Blue Peter, I regularly unearth random facts from the back of my brain put there by Simon Groom.

I should add that my mum basically forced us to watch BP. She tightly controlled our tv viewing - we were only allowed BP, Neighbours % Rolf Harris. So I was less of a BP Type & more of a Coerced Into Watching It Type. We weren't allowed to watch Grange Hill lest it encourage us to bunk off school.

My childhood BFF had one - we both entered the same competition and she got a badge and I didn't. She graciously let me share the benefits (mainly free entry to museums, if I remember correctly) but tbh it rankled every time I saw it. #iwasrobbed

Sorry, but why are we wasting time worrying about teens on TikTok when clearly the real at-risk group was right-wing adults on X.

Am not sure Prevent was really designed for that, alas…

if I ever go properly "screaming about nothing in particular in the street" mad it will be due to having spent too much time having read about the opinions of men who have absolutely never cared about women's rights for one moment in their lives but decided to pretend just for the sake of racism

And now, ironically, I have to stop being angry on the internet and go and make breakfast for my father in law. But because I want to and because I’m a good host, not because Jesus told me to submit to him.

β€œThe Bible” also tells us to sell your daughters, not wear mixed fibres and stone people to death for adultery. You want to be a misogynist and are using the Bible - which doesn’t say one thing on any subject - as an excuse.x

This is just exhausting and stupid crap. If you’re sexist, fine, go and be sexist (or really, don’t). But don’t claim that God, Jesus or β€˜The Bible’ tells you to suppress your wife and daughters. The Bible doesn’t tell you that, you want to be in control and use it as an excuse.

2/2 Was Paul a disciple of Christ? Yes. Did he had wise things to say? Also yes. Was he the Son of God? No. We should be following JESUS not Paul - and Jesus treated women with respect, and the early church had women leaders. Same as women not working - Jesus was financially supported by women!

FWIW, the Bible does NOT say women shouldn’t lead. St Paul has things to say on that, but Jesus doesn’t. And the β€˜Bible’ is a collection of books written over 1000s of years which rarely says one thing on any subject and repeatedly contradicts itself. 1/2

Reminder that the measles vaccine was the most successful in history and was considered to have entirely eliminated infections until the funded anti-vax movement was fueled by RFK Jr & others to concentrate capital with more pandemics.

I'm just ugly not trans, train driver told colleagues
Aslef union appears to push back against Supreme Court ruling on definition of "woman"
Gareth Corfald
Transport spondent
A train driver insisted they were not transgender but "just ugly" when challenged by colleagues after the Supreme Court ruling on sender.
The unnamed driver made the remark following April's ruling, in which the highest judges in the country said "sex" in equality law refers to biological sex,
The "just ugly" comment was quoted in a submission made by Aslef, the train drivers trade union, to an Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) consultation.
In its submission, Aslef said: "Since the ruling, there have been examples of our members being questioned about their biological sex by colleagues to the level where one member felt the need to explain to their colleagues that they are just ugly.

The Confessions of Samuel Pepys by Guy de la BΓ©doyΓ¨re review – journal of a predator Newly decoded extracts expose the celebrated 17th-century diarist and naval administrator as a rapacious abuser

Good article about a new edition of Pepys’ diaries which keeps in all his sexual assaults & domestic violence.

Pepys was I think *completely normal* in all of this. It’s a largely untold story how this came to be thought of as unacceptable behaviour for men.
