I think you've judged that well. Not everything is for everyone. And that's good.

You can do it I'm sure. One bite at a time as they say

Everything okay?

When they come out as trans, many many parents, otherwise 'good' people fail to accept it. It's a tragedy and monsters like this man and favourable coverage of all the terfs gives parents permission not to do better. Our kids need us we need to be better for them.

If you require migrants to meet higher standards than the average Brit, whether that is in terms their language requirements, voluntary service, which isn't remotely "voluntary" if it is compulsory, or anything else then you have a system which is by definition discriminatory. One which dehumanises.

There was no problem with trans people.

Then bigoted conformists decided to make one.

They circulated lie after lie continually, to make it look like there was a problem.

It was easy with a tiny minority to think some of it was true.

They’ll repeat the strategy.

Until every person conforms.

I don't believe in paired socks. Life is too short.

My youngest didn't even know socks come in pairs until he was 12

Alan Lester @alanlester.bsky.social • 13m Probably the most influential & absurd lie in recent British history: the idea that white people will enjoy a better quality of life only if brown & black people can be prevented from crossing the channel to seek asylum.

Fundamentally, there always has to be something extreme to rile up reactionaries or all these pages would fill up with our actual real problems and people demanding action to fix them. And as we’ve seen, the lads will crash the bus again and again, before they ever allow that to happen.

The UK’s problems aren’t caused by immigration It’s not hard to see how so many came to worry about the issue. But the data isn’t there

Iain Banks: the final interview Iain Banks died last Sunday, just before the publication of his final novel The Quarry. Last month he talked to Stuart Kelly about writing, politics and all the things still left to do . . .

“I mean, your society’s broken, so who should we blame? Should we blame the rich, powerful people who caused it? No let’s blame the people with no power & no money & these immigrants who don’t even have the vote, yeah it must be their fucking fault.”

There's no excuse of ignorance any more. Every single person on that fascist march knew who Tommy Robinson was and every single one of them knew why they were there.

This isn't Brexit. People weren't conned. They willingly went out to join in, led by a five times jailed thug. Stop making excuses.

This is a major source of frustration for the reenactment community. We will continue to be truthful about early medieval history and society. We will not let them win.

The people marching in London today are very obviously the ideological descendants of the Mosleyite BUF fascists of the 1930s.

The mainstream news and media are too timid to point it out, but that's what they are - and we normalise it at our peril.

It's good to hear others think the same to be honest. I really struggle with the news on 6 music and find myself only listening until the next news bulletin and then frantically muting it.

Most of the 1% won't complain as their wealth grows because of their stake in guillotine.com

On the money.

Ah, I see we're at the tax returns stage of "we're going to elect a dictator".

A screenshot of the headline from a Guardian column by Adrian Chiles. It reads 'I boiled my wooden spoons - and what emerged from them will haunt me for ever'.

The spoons lay on the counter, three of them, heads together as though conspiring like witches. Heirlooms, Marion had said, passed down to her by her mother. I scooped them up in one hand, threw them into the already steaming pot, turned up the heat. Waited. Within the bubble and pop of the water I thought I could hear voices, the same voices that had been snaking around my head these past few days, never quite loud enough to identify what words they carried, but, in their tone, thick with menace and insinuation. The spoons knew. They had been there when the acid had turned Marion into soup, had borne the flavour of her as all her parts dissolved with their stirring. Whatever was left of her lived in the grain of their wood. I knew that in order to be free of those terrible voices, to be free forever of Marion, I would need to boil these last of her remnants away. Within minutes of entering the pot, a foul-smelling and glutinous skin had formed on the surface. At the same time, the voices had begun to grow louder, had begun to take on the sound of some kind of demented choir. Too late, I realised that I was not destroying what was hidden in the spoons, but reactivating it. I sprung forward to turn off the gas, but before my hand could reach the knob, the skin on the pot began to pulse and shift. As I watched on, a pair of hands formed from the gloop, gelatinous fingers gripping the sides of the pan. From the centre of the pan rose a head, a flesh-free skull, grinning with malevolent anticipation, eyeless sockets fixing me with their pitiless gaze. I fell to the floor, tried to cry out, but the words died in my throat. She climbed, limb by glutinous limb, from the pot, and - as I raised my hands and begged for her forgiveness - launched herself from the hob’s edge, gloopy limbs flailing wildly, to land upon me. Her arms encircle me now and forever. I know now what the spoons knew.

#23: Spoons

it's real support from actual racists

I said over a decade ago that he'd be Prime Minister and everyone laughed.

I think it will happen.

We need to know NOW how he has so much media support, if he's not exposed soon I'll be right and that would be a tragedy for the UK and the world.

Nigel Farage is the biggest charlatan in British political history.

And here's what his constitutents in Clacton really think:

Rayner is absolute class. She's been a bit silly in organising her taxes, but that's not why they hate her. They hate her because she did not know her place.

It doesn't matter. He isn't working class so we can skip this.

He will. He isn't a working class woman. 🤷
