Ireland calling the UK out for being stupid enough to fall for this 'gender critical' bollocks.

It's Toy Show night so I can't wait for American blueskyers to get mad at us because there's someone in the administration called Glenn ToyShow and he's the deputy secretary of the department of crushing orphans or something.

Like MAGA, transphobes have gotten everything they wanted in 2025. And, like MAGA, they've never been more vitriolic toward the institutions they've captured, more disgusted by their wounded victims, more ready to plough forth into realms of cruelty that even they would have balked at a year ago.

Old spotted black and white photograph of a man standing on a street wearing a coat and a striped scarf. Some cars of various vintages on the street beside and behind him. He exudes cool somehow.

My grandfather in Limerick City, my mum thinks it was probably late 1940s. How does he look so damn *cool*?

YESSSSSSSS DONNA

Repeatedly, charities have chosen to cooperate with the ongoing exclusion of trans people from public life rather than take a serious risk to defend us. They will survive this shit. We fucking won't. Girl guiding or the People's History Museum or whatever get to do on. We die alone.

Honestly think it should be banned or at least limited in a way that keeps the sherpa people safe and employed but doesnt have huge queues and entitled eejits

I actually forgot easons exists.

I was just thinking about this lil guy taking a pet like no problem JUST YESTERDAY

Oh hello Lilith!

Photo of a bedroom from bed height. But where is the cat?

Hmmm where is my cat?

HMRC customer support are based all over north of england and scotland. I feel like that might be on purpose.

I really appreciate the societal context from which chatgpt arose that Eryk provides in this piece

Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

I just *huff* her some days.

A comfy chair covered with blankets and cushions. Wait no that isn't a cushion, it's a cunningly disguised and extremely comfortable calico kitten stretched out across the chair.

Cousin Lil says hi

I will say polish voice dubbing is grim
Just one voice for the whole thing. But ew.

7.5 months. She's almost 4kg so she will definitely be a larger lovely

I am still thinking about this lovely moment my friend experienced and smiling.

It's kind of magic how even if we don't realise it we can get worked into the fabric and pattern of other people's lives.

I hope if it happens to me it's a pleasant thread.

Oh thank you! I have never sewn anything from a pattern before but I'll definitely have a look. Ninja looks so cosy and nice. Lovely work x

This is a legitimate scientific revolution in meteorology.

Also, to be clear, these models are not the AI LLMs that most people are familiar with. They are machine learning algorithms trained on observations (actually reanalysis).

Yesterday a woman and kid got off the bus and the kid looked at and shrieked "mam it's the coat!!!". The woman, absolutely mortified, explained to me that the child sees me around every year and doesn't consider winter to have started until she sees me in my big fluffy winter coat.

Oh what a beautiful moment!

I do wonder at folks whose immediate (and unexamined) reaction to something new is hostility and anger

Large yet somehow dainty calico kitten with a ear tufts and exceedingly fluffy white paws perched on a box and looking a bit judgy
