Re the Hormuz, not saying I'm an expert on the sitch, but are we really too proud to try historically vetted measures like sacrificing a high ranking member of the royal family to propitiate the sea god

(*It had a name, it was just too cringed to say it)
Ahh here 😂

Who can forget his great speech when he stood in front of the Berlin hive and said the immortal words "Ich bin ein wasp, bzzz bzzz"
In France, they do not celebrate #PiDay, because of the metric system. Instead they call it, "Royale with Pi".
Don't make plans with a mathematician on Pi day. It just goes on forever
If you have an existing prescription, you're fine, you can use that in a pharmacy. This is purely down to the NGS empire building, you can find GPs that will continue treatment (though the NGS try to scare them and say only they should prescribe, which is nonsense)
Thankfully there is a review under way so hopefully something good will come out of it

DIY or find a GP that will prescribe and just ignore the NGS (some will, the NGS has no statutory power to stop a GP from prescribing)
To be clear, they are not restricted (other than being prescription only), if a GP contacts the NGS looking for guidance on how to prescribe for a trans person they will be told they shouldn't and should leave it to them. There is nothing stopping a GP from prescribing themselves and some will
Those guys on Louis Theroux's #Manosphere. Frightened little boys desperately clutching onto a pantomime concept of masculinity; lashing out at a world too nuanced for their inferior intellects. Sad. They're like the ad scams & pyramid schemes in 1960s comics. Be a REAL man! Girls! Get rich quick!
World rugby: Okay. So you can win this entire tournament
Ireland: Okay, great!
World rugby: as long as England win their game.
Ireland:...
World Rugby: So obviously you would want England to-
Ireland: -Shush I'm thinking.
Also the CTA is like the pirates code "more what you'd you call guidelines than actual rules"
I'm not sure how? It's not specifically targeting anyone from the UK, it's everyone who never went through their system. I transitioned here long before the NGS was a thing and even I would have to sign up to them to get hrt if I was in different circumstances
I do keep telling people, we're an ok country to live in if you're trans, but our trans healthcare is abysmal (the NGS stuff is only the beginning, we do have private healthcare, and insurance will (now) cover the cost of some surgeries, but unlike the US, stuff like FFS isn't covered)
If you like this sort of thing and would like to encourage more of it you can chuck me a coffee here: www.ko-fi.com/soozuk

All I wanted was one political party promising not to make my life and the lives of other trans people not worse
Not worse is currently a vote winner and if that doesn't shock you nothing will
It's only Pi Day in America. In Europe we celebrate it on the 3rd of Extravember.
Cis with power over trans people struggle over and over with the simple answer to a question that would, if they were to accept it, overturn their understanding of themselves. Sex is imposed, sex is mutable, sex is as real and as fake as we make it.
Sadly, cis are generally cowards.
A sandstorm is currently hitting Gaza, sweeping through the tents of displaced people, tearing some apart and uprooting others, in a heartbreaking scene.
An update from Ruaa:
Today the wind is violent and full of dust.
A khamsin storm is sweeping everything in Gaza. The air is thick with sand and it feels like we are being blown away.
But the storm outside is not the only one. (1/3)

Honestly, the White House visit is starting to feel like a ritualistic humiliation to remind us who's really in charge of our country.
It's π Day. So here's a Piasecki. (📸 US Air Force via @wikimediafoundation.org in the public domain) | 🛩️ 🚁 ⚔️
Just a few seconds, don't ignore us! Urgent🚨
We are dying in Gaza. We survived the Israeli bombing of a building next to our camp in Gaza. Our tent was destroyed by the bombing, and my family is now homeless. We desperately need your help to buy a tent that costs €100.

I'm shocked, shocked that someone who complains about "identity politics" would be transphobic, well, no, not shocked at all
Today, we are in Bristol reporting on one of the GATE (Guiders Against Trans Exclusion) protests against trans girls being excluded from Girlguiding.
The protest will begin at College Green, at 12:00 midday.
