Hearing about more state and media transphobia off trans "activists" which threatens my existence with no solution to stop it is making me ill again. 99% of them have "got theirs". I've been fucked about for *14* years and may never get it, and none of them give a flying fuck about my health.

Asking for a friend- if a SAR uncovered an email where a politician falsely accused you of harassment claiming they were fearful of their safety and used a fake quote from you that you can prove you never tweeted what would be your best course of action for justice?

🤣🤣No fucker wants to go anywhere near the US. She has nothing to worry about. Brain dead little whore of the far right.

If this prick gave a shit about science he's be calling out the fraudulent Cass Review which one govt minister cited as "science" when it's pseudoscience at best. www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

#NHS And this is what G Square Capital are all about. Take it from their founder and CEO Laurent Ganem. It's all about profit and rapid expansion. www.privateequityinternational.com/sector-deliv...

Starmer not only leaves the bigots appointed by Tories in post, looks the other way when Badenoch *bragged* about appointing bigots to key positions, but he's recruiting more dodgy Tories to plum jobs. This is how a Soviet style "hybrid warfare" coup works. The far right are the same. "Change".

It’s hard not to feel despair, reading this account of what people say about it & knowing how deep it is. How to sustain a shift from despair to determination? For me, it’s about taking even small actions with good people, and amplifying others’ actions too via social media, conversations, events.

“We will fight the proposed cuts every way we can.” Three firms of solicitors working with disabled people on possible benefit cuts legal cases - @johnpring.bsky.social www.disabilitynewsservice.com/three-firms-...

We really are living in the age of criminalisation of the poor & legal immunity for the obscenely rich 😞 ‘ The proposal…would attempt to avoid legal challenges by designating part of the prison — which has drawn accusations of violence & overcrowding from human rights groups — as 🇺🇸 US territory.’

This is just simple queerphobia. Utterly nasty. And to do this days after Jamie Greene, a gay MSP, left the party? Absolutely proving his point. The absolute state of Scottish politics right now. Completely and utterly shameful. Physically sickens me.

Thatcher and Blair went all in on the City and service industries and hung industry out to dry apart from defence. >> This government is turning the page on a decade of decline, where our manufacturing heartlands were hollowed out by the previous government. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Chanel double compact mirror arrived. I bought it off Ebay new. Given the price was £10 and it normally retails for £35 I'm assuming it's fake or someone had a serious overstock. It all looks okay and is a good size and the mirrors are good quality. It's functionally what I wanted so I'm happy.

I gave way for a group of people. Three youngish men and a woman. Everyone was polite and said "thank you" as they passed. I'm guessing one having a girlfriend and nobody wanting to wreck it for him had something to do with that.

I wish Asda would stop trying to "improve" their website. They just make it harder and more clunky to use.

Over the past few decades both Labour and the Tories fucked up energy production and energy pricing. Blair (and he wouldn't be the only one and yes that includes Johnson) trying to wriggle off net zero is an excuse to offload the problem to someone else. 🫤 www.independent.co.uk/voices/briti...

Meanwhile the UK technology minister used ChatGPT instead of, you know, asking an expert. They're also betting the farm on a techbro's AI sales pitch described by many as a fantasy. Oh, and we're gutting our education system. Again. www.science.org/content/arti...

"The PM's determination to save Britain's tiny steel industry contrasts with his continued refusal to help the many more workers whose livelihoods depend on the EU". www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/keir-starm...

This should help to cut through any noise out there. Tho I will say 'talking to the NHS has largely proved useless, as they're politically compromised and institutionally transphobic.

The most significant changes for many of us in the green paper aren’t up for consultation. Half the changes aren’t. #Accessible versions of it weren’t made available until 3 weeks later. They don’t care about #disabled people, just #benefitcuts. It’s a sham. #WealthTax apple.news/ArAxNtNvoRTe...

It's because they're savvy. They've seen what's popular and thrown it out there, knowing that they can bin it once they get in to government. Labour are there with a colossal mandate and doing exactly what Reform ACTUALLY want to do.
