they say your cat will eat you if you pass away and they get hungry. but my cat won't even eat special luxury fancy cat food if it's the wrong flavour so somehow I doubt that.

I wouldn't ever dare to suggest that anyone in said cult is funding this fucking bullshit and making sure she's well taken care of

this reminds me of when Julie Bindel got every twitter transphobe to complain about Waterstones. it wasn't good enough that they stocked transphobic books; they were hiding them on the shelves when they should have had special window displays and tables dedicated to them otherwise it was censorship

the transphobes actually want it to be the law that people have to not only be forced to listen to them, but to agree with them

I've been depressing myself over on pro- ai Reddit recently. some people out there actually think musk is going to pay everyone a ubi when his ais have put us all out of work. There is no limit to the level of delusion people will entertain about billionaires

yes this. the "but they'll leave" thing makes no sense. Okay then! they contribute nothing! they are an active drain on society! why wouldn't I want them to leave!

This is obscene. Why can't other politicians say that?

The 25 richest families are collectively $358.7 billion richer than a year ago, with a combined fortune totaling $2.9 trillion.

Moving house – time to think inside the box: the Edith Pritchett cartoon Pack it in …

normally Guardian cartoons aren't that great but this one is accurate. only missing the part in my experience where the box of rubbish makes it but I've lost all my degree certificates and some very precious jewellery as well www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

couldn't agree more. I think some of the Barbara Vine novels especially stand up against any "literary fiction"

this is ridiculous. you should care about trans rights a/ for the same reason the far-right want to remove them - because they want to attack things like bodily autonomy for everyone, and they're starting with trans people because people like you don't care - and b/ because its the right thing to do
