A screenshot of a news headline from The Times. The headline reads: "Trans people could be banned from single-sex spaces based on how they look." Below, the sub-headline states: "The Times has seen the equalities watchdog’s final guidance, which Whitehall figures fear Bridget Phillipson is delaying to avoid a political backlash." The article is written by Geraldine Scott, Assistant Political Editor, and is dated Wednesday, November 19, 2025.

The UK is considering a policy that would effectively segregate trans people from society. It would bar trans people from "single sex spaces" even when they use the facility of their sex assigned at birth.

This is a full on policy of segregation without even the benefit of separate facilities.

Das Grundproblem ist, dass der Wurf eines kleinen Sahnetörtchens in dieser Gesellschaft als gewaltvoller gilt, als soziale Kürzungen bei Menschen, die wenig Geld haben. Dabei ist letzteres pure Gewalt.

They're dead, Rob. The life expectancy of autistic people was, last time I checked, around 36 years old.

Not due to some inherent physical issues. These deaths are mostly the result of neglect, murder, and suicide.

This is like when people ask where all the old gay men are.

Welt is also owned by Springer, a right wing press baron dynasty so infamous you can basically think of them as our Murdoch.

Die Welt is a very conservative newspaper. For its opinion editor to resign over an op-ed means all sorts of red lines have been crossed.

The AfD is not just a right-wing party. It is so extreme that even figures like France’s Le Pen and Italy’s Salvini won’t work with it

Elon Musk is a danger to democracy globally. The sooner countries realize this and go after him, the better. Ban Tesla, Twitter, and Starlink from their countries.

I was told that Grants Pass allowing cities to make being homeless illegal would solve this. I was under the impression throwing people in jail and “cleaning up” their encampments would fix the problem because homelessness was a lifestyle choice by moral degenerates who just needed “tough medicine”.

This is an incredible testament to the loss of local news coverage. A congresswoman disappeared for six months and no one noticed.
