Repost with the first album you bought with your own money. 1981? I’d have been nine, going on ten. If this were about singles: Magic Fly by Space in I think 77/78. Bought because they wore space suits - couldn’t sing you a note of it now, or then :)

Great article by Munroe www.vogue.co.uk/article/munr...

Nice bit of brand synergy today. The National warns of anti-gender nutcases going after human rights in Scotland and its sister paper gives FWS a fawning front page.

The "feminism" in Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminism functions the same way as the "socialism" in National Socialism. It's there to convince you that they're addressing material issues of an oppressed class, when they're actually just exploiting said class to hurt others.

The vast majority of women arrested and convicted for child sexual abuse are *cis* women The vast majority of people arrested and convicted for sexual abuse are *cis* people They're a danger to both cis and Trans+ children Write an opinion column about that Kathleen
