Britain never did grow out of oppressing the Irish because the country generally feels like it *should* own us regardless of all that pesky war of independence stuff

26.11.2025 14:21 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 2 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Graham Linehan is clearly a deeply unwell man who has given himself psychosis obsessing over trans folks, but the British media and political classes have no choice but to encourage and protect him because of what it says about them, as they fundamentally believe the same things about us as he does.

Hey, look at this weird gargoyle from my town, isn't it neat? Supposedly it depicts a monkey that rescued a baby from a burning building, or so the stories go. I love this little guy.

No consumer-facing LLMs or generative "A.i." in anything.
Sure, machine learning in science and a few other limited applications is fine.
But consumer-facing LLMs and generative "A.i." that are based on theft, push disinfo, and can be manipulated by billionaires?
No.
I wish cis people would understand just how stressful it is when every time there's news of gun deaths, far right trolls immediately jump to social media and claim the shooter is trans, and sometimes they'll circulate pictures of random trans women they want to incite violence against.

26.11.2025 12:07 โ ๐ 35 ๐ 5 ๐ฌ 3 ๐ 0I would be happy if I never heard the name Graham Linehan again, but I do feel the need to comment, because the nature of a lot of the abuse trans people receive is straight up sexual harassment, but is not recognized as such because the victim is trans.
What Glinner is doing is sexual harassment.
God I'm so sick of how "Activist" is used to un-person trans people.

MY SISTER IS NOW AN AWARD-WINNING ILLUSTRATOR!
I AM SO PROUD OF HER!
The book she did illustrations for, "Ninety-Nine Words for Rain (and One for Sun)", by the late Manchรกn Magan, is a really wonderful introduction to the poetic beauty of the Irish language.

It is so vitally important that The Journal is out here not allowing the Burkes to live in a fantasy world and set the terms of the debate.
This was never about pronouns. It is about a bully of a teacher, acting like a freak and harassing a student for months.
I quite literally will never understand this take. I know that we always need *some* rental property available but the vast majority of people in Ireland want to own and we can't because of *drumroll please* landlords buying multiple properties to rent. Them leaving the market is what we want.
