The average Premier League salary is £67,000 a week. In the Women's Super League its £47,500 a year. To believe that this fact is less significant for equality in football than the infinitesimal numbers of trans women playing the sport you have to be world historically stupid.

The new EHRC interim guidelines are legally wrong, bigoted and a huge overreach. Write to your MP (again?!). Expose all this for what it is. We have updated our thoughts on what you might say to MPs in your email. KEEP WRITING! KEEP SHARING! www.translegalproject.org/post/urgent-...

I got Savage Crowns, the final in the Savage Rebellion trilogy, by Matt Wallace (@mattfnwallace.bsky.social) so I'm re-reading the first 2 books. I'D FORGOTTEN HOW AMAZING THEY ARE! From the sentence level to chapter titles to characterisation to the badass women being badass, I love it all.

This is how you get beyond "flooding the zone with shit." Each story helps paint the bigger picture--> focus on the bigger picture.

Australian readers. The Kindle version of my novel, 36 Streets (Winner of the Aurealis Award for Best SF Novel), is half price at the moment. It's still finding readers, 3 years later. So if you haven't, here's your chance: shorturl.at/DpG1s @titanbooks.bsky.social

JKR randomly going after asexual people for no reason just reiterates how silly it is to claim that spending 24/7 attacking trans people on the internet is actually just "protecting women." Who on earth are you protecting from the ace people, Joanne???

Help us convince the UK government to uphold the law on copyright which Meta has ignored in order to use the illegally shared work of thousands of writers, without asking permission and without payment, with the explicitly stated aim of making money for themselves. www.change.org/p/protect-au...

Jessica here can express my thoughts far more eloquently than me. The #UKLabour gov has decided literally forcing disabled folks into poverty is a way to "improve living standards across the country." #benefitscuts

It’s the five year anniversary of the pandemic. Five years that disabled people have been abandoned. Five years where many have excused our deaths as acceptable. Five years that we can’t even access safe healthcare. By you excluding disabled people, you’re aiding in fascism and eugenics.

When the Tech Bros finally build an AGI and they ask it for the Answers, it's gonna say: "Y'all should instigate a UBI, and cycle lanes, and stop burning fossil fuels." And... they're gonna turn it back off again.

The lanky mouse asks the smaller one what they're going to do today. "Nothing. To want a diseased world is a sickness. Today, we heal ourselves. Do you understand, Pinky?" "Narf." The Brain nods. "You do." The soft, introspective hush falls over Pinky. Pinky and the Brain.

I was an NHS worker from overseas and this makes my fucking blood boil. I was bullied out of not one, but two NHS jobs for having the temerity to move here as a fully trained individual. This fluff is meaningless without NHS cultural change.

@andrewsimms.bsky.social speaking my language at #LYP2025: International climate negotiations don't work to get us to our climate goals because there is no technofix for 40+ billion tonnes of CO₂ emissions; we have to change our lifestyles and be reenchanted with our planet.

Heads up for Android phone users: google installed a "security" app on your phone without your knowledge or consent, Android System SafetyCore, that scans and transmits photos you've taken. This is the textbook definition of malware. Go to Settings > Apps and remove it immediately.

I have a soothing question for readers 📚 When the 3rd book in a trilogy you're reading is released do you: a) re-read the first 2 books immediately prior to reading the 3rd b) just jump straight in with the 3rd book c) wild card; it depends on the trilogy #reading #books #randomquestion
