Longing for the Paloma Faith tiger print duvet set in double. Can only find it in Superking. It’s incredible.

RoboCop statue rises in Detroit: ‘big, beautiful, bronze piece of art’ A 15-year quest ends with a monument, drawing crowds and nostalgia as Detroit embraces its cult-film past The statue looms and glints at more than 11 feet tall and weighing 3,500 pounds, looking out at the city with, how to put it … a characteristically stern expression? Despite its daunting appearance and history as a crimefighter of last resort, the giant new bronze figure of the movie character RoboCop is being seen as a symbol of hope, drawing fans and eliciting selfie mania since it began standing guard over Detroit on Wednesday afternoon.

LGB Alliance tweet saying sex is obvious, people are only ever politely challenged in toilets, and that the sudden concern for butch women is a red herring.

The LGBTQ community has been saying that targeting trans people will disproportionately affect cis women for FUCKING YEARS. And it does. LGBAliiance treat them like their abuse is acceptable collateral damage to their prejudicial grift crusade.

Oh, well, they think the leopards won’t eat THEIR faces. Today it’s appearance, tomorrow it will be something else.

This policing of womens appearance reeks of fascism.

Good morning.

This is your reminder to get to the gym so that you can beat up racists if you have to.

Depressing and true.

And poverty. Always poverty.

Exactly this. I should have also mentioned poverty in that list, which is a growing issue that keeps women trapped.

Things that negatively affect women that should be changed:

Abortion rights
Access to birth control
The gender pay gap
Violence against women
Lack of affordable childcare etc

But TERFs aren’t interested in helping, only harming.

Vile. Utterly vile. There is no such thing as a “war on womens’ sport”

Is it too early to open the Halloween sweets

Yes, I would very much like to see Blacula, thank you.

It’s 2012, I am 26, I have still not seen Blacula.

It’s 2020, I am 34, I have still not seen Blacula.

It’s 2025, I am 39, I have still not seen Blacula.

The Power Fantasy of Superman is you still have a staff job on a newspaper.

Is cultural snobbery behind the death sentence of this Scots arts organisation? With Cumbernauld Theatre's future on the line, we should act or risk losing a vital part of Scottish Theatre.

My thoughts in the @heraldscotland.bsky.social on the current situation at Cumbernauld Theatre, which after being turned down for multi year funding by Creative Scotland may be forced to close its doors before the end of this year.

The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down has never let me down

She died as she lived. Doing 5 things at once and none of them super well

Questions I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up. Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Article reads: Woman named as Archbishop of Canterbury in historic first The 63-year-old archbishop-designate is married to Eamonn Mullally, with whom she has two children. Originally from Woking in Surrey, she was the UK's chief nursing officer from 1999 to 2004.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

I can attest that this is true. Bernard often thinks about this line. Daily, sometimes.

⚠️ Urgent Update:

Cumbernauld Theatre has served our community for over 60 years, and we have until the end of this year to secure its future.

Here I am in 2020 in the flimsiest, most pitful PPE - like so many other NHS staff, some of whom died from the Covid they caught in their hospitals.

Tory peer Michelle Mone - who today lost her legal case & must repay the govt £122m - dares to claim she’s been ‘scapegoated’.

What, Michelle? 🧵

Post a fictional comedian who definitely would accept an invitation to the Riyadh Comedy Festival.

You can't joke about anything anymore. Because you signed a multi figure contract with the Saudi government that said they wouldn't pay you if you did.
