Dreamliner Again

TERFs like to attack Butler, not because their (Butler’s) arguments are weak but because they’re pro-trans.

Sad-looking slightly overweight bloke with scruffy beard on the left. Happy-looking woman on the right.

Idk, I think it’s an improvement?

Eh?

I don’t even know what that means.

I’m glad you managed to eat 🙂

Fair 😂

What, because they'd only have about 4 members? 😂

(I'm a natural introvert so that, on top of being knackered, is contributing to a strong pull from the sofa. But I am RESISTING! For once, it is not futile...)

I'm not clicking on a Murdoch link, so I've not read it.

Did they really cram all that in...?

Mostly I'm just depressingly frustrated at my fellow humans' inability to do the right thing.

In this case, just don't fucking use AI.

See also: not buying from Amazon, recycling as much as possible, not drowning puppies... you get the idea.

I'm going out this evening to meet a new queer group in town even though I'm exhausted and would far rather stay at home on the sofa with the cat and mug of tea.

You may clap 🙂

Left wing politicians need to offer hope, material improvement and a reason to vote for, not just against to voters. They must also master the art of saying "get a load of this fucken guy" about their right wing opponents, many of whom fail to pass the uncanny valley test.

I mean, they could always go and set up their own "green TERF" party... no?

Ikr?

It's quite the pivot in a little over a decade, isn't it?

That image of her stormtrooper overcoat is seared into my consciousness. I hope it wrecks her career and follows her around for the rest of her life. It's no less than she deserves.

(But Streeting's private healthcare backers will, ultimately, get a payoff from this. Maybe that's the reason?)

Very good letter. Read all of it. It doesn't go where you expect it to go...

"the greatest Briton"

🙄

(Should've read Kat's thread before posting this, I guess, but I'm basically agreeing with everything she said 😂)

It is, but I'd argue it's far more than that. Politicians and journos – the people who literally write laws and shape opinions – hang out over there en masse.

I think it's a huge problem in plain sight; even smart people being almost brain-washed into fascist and far right ideologies.

“Separate but equal” 🙄

I understand the temptation to mock. And I certainly wouldn't dissuade anyone. But it's no fucking joke that a Labour Government is choosing to pitch roll for fascism.

I saw something from the WI the other day too (can't find it now), which was very similar.

Neither org seems to have grasped that "separate but equal" isn't going to cut it.

You can’t just treat the Greens as Socialist Workers party for the TikTok era. That‘s not who they are and that‘s not who is voting for them.

I just applied the walking / quacking test 🤷🏼‍♀️

Well obviously we should just believe the TERF.

Case closed.

/s

Well I sure as hell don't want my taxes to pay for their flights. Fuxsake.

Both?

"How do we better communicate these bad things we're doing?"

It doesn't seem to occur to them that they're starting from the wrong place...
