What if Eurovision but politically unblemished and all the entries are "the weird entry"? Highly recommended!

I’m an autistic writer who is finally working. Without PIP, I wouldn’t have had a chance How do you explain a PIP assessment to somebody who’s never had one?

Deep breath, lads.

In response to the proposed government disability cuts, I wrote a piece about my life before The Daily Tism (it includes a PIP assessment, a mental health crisis and iced Madeira cake). We’ll fight this with everything we’ve got.

The BBC:
It's the 80th anniversary of the defeat of fascism in Europe.
We'll have a week of programming celebrating this momentous occasion

Also the BBC:
Here's Nigel Farage for the 4000th time telling us why immigrants are subhuman scum

Streeting ‘genuinely sorry’ for ‘fear and anxiety’ caused by puberty blocker ban The Health Secretary was met with anti-privatisation and pro-trans protesters at the Unison National Healthcare Service Group Conference in Liverpool.

"Streeting ‘genuinely sorry’ for ‘fear and anxiety’ caused by puberty blocker ban" but not so much he's going to do anything about it.

Note he says he sought 'clinical advice' but we all know what sort of advice he took and what advice he ignored.

All this will do is leave innocent kids like Brianna with absolutely no support at all when they are bullied for being trans at school. Ridiculous thing for her to be pushing for when there's so much real stuff to be going for instead

I have to be real, given that all Esther Ghey seems to have done since her daughter's murderers were convicted is advocate for more kids like Brianna to be cut off from help, disenfranchised, and silenced, my sympathy and support for her is rapidly waning

caitmkearns 100 Days of Walks
Most of you know l've been housebound with agoraphobia for five years. When lockdown hit, it gave my disorder the perfect excuse to tighten its grip. I didn't need to leave-I couldn't leave. It was an agoraphobe's short-term dream and long-term nightmare.
But for the past 100 days, l've walked. Just up and down my street, for now. Small steps, but consistent ones. I believe consistency will lead to normality, and normality to progress. Unlearning five years of habit and avoidance will take time, and that's okay.
I've made peace with the fact that panic disorder will always be part of my life. There are things I may never be able to do because of it and that's okay, too. But what I can do is walk. To choose, every day, to open the door and put one foot in front of the other.
Here's to the next 100

An image of Paris Hilton, onstage in front of a crowd, hands in air, in a long pink skirt and a t-shirt that has black text against a white background, with Wes Streeting's face badly superimposed over hers and the t-shirt text crudely doctored to say "STOP BEING MENTALLY ILL." 

The original image became a meme about 10 years ago, with the text saying "STOP BEING POOR", though this itself was a photoshop job, it actually read "STOP BEING DESPERATE." 

No you're supposed to be writing.

Dont read the guardian’s interview with Esther Ghey it neglects any discussion of transphobia and instead focuses on the dangers of online in quite a victim-blamy way its quite upsetting to read

Teacher struck off after having sex with pupil
The Sunday Telegraph23 Feb 2025
A school teacher has been struck off by a panel after he had regular sex with a female pupil.

Thomas Marriott taught history at St Peter’s School in York from 2007 to 2011. A Teaching Regulation Agency misconduct panel heard that an inappropriate relationship began when he taught the pupil in the sixth form.

The panel heard they began having sex while she was still a pupil and continued after she left. A decade later in 2021 she reported the matter to the police. Marriott admitted at York Crown Court three counts of sexual activity with a child in 2023 and was sentenced to 21 months in prison, suspended for two years.

Not a drag queen. Not a trans person. Not 'sex'. Rape.

It’s that time of year again! The Guardian is opening its two-week work experience for underrepresented journalists: disabled people, POC, and now working class. It is paid at the London living wage.
