Uh ... did @Soozuk.bsky.social actually block me for pointing out that the Labour Right will do anything to keep on murdering disabled people? FFS. This is like her, "cheer up everyone. It's not that bad," Twitter post when Starmer stole the leadership. Melty w⚓️ with no ethics.

Why has Yvette Cooper taken donations from two private companies that are already making money providing services to the NHS? EveryDoctor has been researching the financial links between our politicians and the private healthcare sector, because we are worried about the way that money ...

Israel has bombed Irans Radio and TV HQ in Tehran which is a war crime. I await Starmer's condemnation

He's 50. He lasts long because that's what the blue pills do. "I'm spent and rigid for another 45 minutes," is quite the brag.

Great to live in a country where the biggest driver of policy from the Government is performative cruelty insufficient to win over the right wing who would never vote Labour even if it bought their stocky bald ass a pint of Carling.

Cowardly journalism from Auntie Beeb, yet again, manufacturing consent for war crimes. #FuckIsrael #FuckTheBBC

#NotDeadYet A 12 meter banner was unfurled outside Parliament yesterday to support not dead yet UK & opposition against end of life for terminally adults bill

happy fat hairy gay guy summer to those who celebrate

Like and share if you want Iran to have nukes

What people used to do in the old days when they had a bit of Z list celebrity grief. They threatened them on national television.

Imagine condemning immigrants but not the govts that destabilized their homelands Imagine condemning Black people but not police, prisons, & policies built to cage them Imagine condemning gay & trans people but not the systems that force them to live in fear ALT for full text -Chase My Creations

Bus users. If you see someone on a bus wearing a mask and you think, "I better go sit near them and breathe heavily," then know that you deserve urethral wasps.

Why have people forgotten how to use phones? Turning "speaker" on and shouting at it as you hold it in front of your face is *not* how it is fucking done. Nobody wants to be in your conversation except you and - possibly - the person you called*. Quit it! *although evidence throws doubt on this.

If you - or someone you know - needs a confidential chat about a comedian / author in the headlines, I’m here. It’s been a privilege to be trusted by so many people so far and I’ve never stopped working on this. Every story counts.

They just get him. They just get the core of the character.

Sometimes, the most virulent TERFery is driven by the fact that these rancid, bigoted women do not pass. A clocky TERF is the worst kind of TERF. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Did Netanyahu just say, "The world's most dangerous weapon"? Netanyahu *IS* the world's most dangerous weapon. "As the bible teaches us, hurt the other guy worse; and faster!" I guess the Old Testament is mostly shitty. Oh, well. Goodbye everybody. It wasn't fun. #IsraelIsATerroristState

If you're disabled, you don't have to: - explain why you claim benefits - justify how you spend your money - accept unsolicited advice - explain why you need your meds - share your medical details with anyone #DisabilityRebellion #WelfareNotWarfare #TakingThePIP #StopTheCuts #fight4life

Roger Foley has been speaking out about coercion within Canada's MAiD (medical assistance in dying) program for years. He's been pushed to access it, despite repeatedly telling hospital staff he doesn't want to die. He's had his accommodation for special lighting removed. Food & water restricted:

Whatever your personal beliefs on Assisted Dying, we should all be able to agree on 2 fundamentals: No means no. If a patient doesn’t want it, end of discussion. It should never be offered in lieu of care or social supports. If it is, it’s not compassion. It’s eugenics 🧵

Israelis forces assaulted & murdered a Palestinain man who was walking home in Nablus. They also killed his brother who went to help him. The Israeli military & illegal settlers have killed almost 1,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since Oct 7th. Nida' Ibrahim reporting

Removing resources from vulnerable people creates a greater drain on public resources. Reeves knows this, as does Starmer. They're banking on saving money *after* we die. It's a long-term strategy, for once, but eugenics is a cornerstone of fascism and it is anti-society. #FuckStarmer #FuckReeves

My mind keeps flitting between Kirsty MacColl's "Don't Come the Cowboy With Me, Sonny Jim" and the scene in Red Dwarf where Kryten reveals that his knowledge of Rimmer had been kept in a file marked "Captain Bollocks." So, smiling wistfully or cackling. How's your day?

"The role of this tribunal is ... not to enter the debate on gender." Very poorly phrased here, unfortunately. There is no "debate." #TransWomenAreWomen. #TransMenAreMen. They may be a classification of women and men that make some bigots uncomfortable, but that doesn't impact the truth.

Me in my bluesky bubble.
