"ohhhh nooooo why does the press keep writing about these weird far-right cranks", say posters who then proceed to spend the rest of the day linking to and discussing the piece about the far-right crank

Today is a good day to remind everyone sex work is work, and if we gave sex workers rights and legal protections, they wouldn’t have to work out of a basement where punters struggled to find the entrance 🤦‍♀️

Dusting off the old campaigning hoodie to knock on doors around Harrison Park this morning with @qmanivannan.bsky.social and got a great reception from lots of excited Green voters!

This paper by @alexnurse.bsky.social is great! If you're a transport activist, I'd definitely recommend reading it to hone your tactics: doi.org/10.1080/0300...

Canvassing this evening with Cllr Ben Parker (Morningside) & other excellent volunteers. I’m so grateful to learn from Greens currently in council, their challenges, understand how we can best do good by the people in our area. Cross-ward coordination is key for a better, kinder council 🌸🌿

A wee video message from me on why I’m backing @qmanivannan.bsky.social the @scottishgreens.org candidate in the Fountainbridge-Craiglockhart by-election: the area in which I used to be councillor. It’s been great working with Q and the @edinburghgreens.bsky.social team! #VoteQ1 #VoteScottishGreens

Another great session knocking doors in Shandon today for Q Manivannan @qmanivannan.bsky.social ahead of the council by-election in 1 month. Voters are dismayed at the running of Edinburgh Council by Labour propped up by the Tories and Lib Dems. They are ready to have a Green councillor once again!

We have a great chance of getting our energetic candidate @qmanivannan.bsky.social elected in Fountainbridge/Craiglockart. For action on road-safety, tenant’s rights, green-spaces, and so much more please consider contributing to the election crowdfunder www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/help-elect...

The transphobia movement is conducting a plutocrat-driven offensive against women's rights to organise autonomously as women and feminists. Name it and track it and end it.

god it's such small time behaviour to be against free movement, grow up

Reminder to all Holyrood Park users! Tomorrow there will be a 2nd public meeting on the park. Details & registration via the link below. Lorna Slater MSP has called the meeting to set up a "Friends of Holyrood Park" organisation, giving the community & stakeholders a say in the future of the park.

The UK is one of the wealthiest countries in history. But that wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, where it's used to buy yachts and private jets instead of building up public services. A 1% wealth tax on net assets over £10 million could raise £10 billion a year.

Very pleased to say, we've at last managed to get up some practical guidance on what the For (Some) Women Scotland decision means. Tl;dr it's absolutely *not* what the bigots in Government or the bigots leading the misnamed EHRC are telling you. goodlaw.social/1c68df

Super useful resource 👇

So excited to hear that Ann is standing! She’s a fantastic candidate and would be an absolutely cracking representative for residents!

I have a really powerful need to see sight of an Edinburgh otter. Folks who know about such things, where and at what time would I increase my chances? I’m in need of a cheering up via the medium of nature. 🦦

Central Edinburgh Greens were knocking on doors in Tollcross today with Lorna Slater MSP and Councillor Claire Millar, finding out about the issues and concerns of residents. Thanks to all the lovely people who answered their doors to us.

🏳️‍⚧️ NEW 🏳️‍⚧️ We believe the Supreme Court – which disgracefully refused to hear from trans people before its decision last week – has placed the UK in breach of its obligations under the Human Rights Act. So we’re readying a challenge – join us: goodlaw.social/xpme

"scotland's finest legal minds, as well as two women" is one of the funniest possible ways roddy could have worded this fair play www.advocates.org.uk/news-and-res...

Hot take (apologies) Saying that trans men need to use women’s bathroom means it’s more likely that predatory men will feel able to go into women’s bathrooms. Tell me again how this is about protecting women from male violence.
