Identity of the officer on the left has been found

still can't believe that one of the most scathing critiques of Harry Potter and Rowling came from 4chan, of all places. alt text added.

The perm political media class on here [mps, hacks, think tankers & their hangers on] hve decided they never wanna hear from the public again unless they're a retired homeowner who Just Wants To Say Send Them Back. Otherwise it's ignore, flip the bird, smash the block button & crack on as before

It's been confirmed (by their website) that they are trying to do this. So if you are a Green member please find out about your local candidates and support and ask others to support pro Trans rights candidates.

4Chan was hacked, its source code was leaked, admin emails were leaked, AND a lot of registered users used their real names and .edu email addresses. Lotta CHUDs getting exposed to sunlight today.

WOAH WAIT WHAT

WHAT THE FUUUUUCK

Every single interviewee here is saying "I liked the pain and harm right wing ideas caused to others, but I do not like the pain they now cause to me". Absolutely no epistemic reflection as to the real source of their errors.

In the UK, four major newspapers (Guardian, Times, Telegraph, Mail) publish over a thousand anti trans hate articles a year. Imagine being a 14 year old watching your body be stolen from you by adult ideologues and seeing the media do that to you.

An astronomy professor colleague of mine once relayed trying to explain to his students why it was important that they actually write their class reports themselves. “The point is not to teach ME about neutron stars,” he said.

Another broken promise

It's honestly disgusting how blatant and shameless this inversion of reality is. In the rare case that a parent is supportive of their trans child, it is to be labeled as abuse, while attempted conversion therapy and denial of bodily autonomy to trans children is to be a normalized form of torture.

You just know that this applies to the UK Parliament too. If anything it's even more widespread

Hey, did you know there's an alternative to ChatGPT that makes sense economically and doesn't destroy the environment? It's called English majors and they will happily fix all of your documents for the low price of health insurance and a living wage.

STOP what you are doing, find some headphones or a secluded location, and watch this. I am crying with laughter and admiration at an idea seen through to its (nearly) bitter end. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD3Q... Sound--as they say--on.

Whilst the billionaire elite sends celebrities into space for a few minutes, widespread government inaction to tackle the climate crisis puts our communities, livelihoods and lives at risk. We need a Green New Deal to secure the future of our planet now.

So many liberals who pretend to be shocked about Starmer’s wilful destruction of our universities were of course tireless opponents of his predecessor as Labour leader, who actually prioritised defending higher ed

Sad to hear Harvey Weinstein is in court today, because his lawyers originally promised us he be dead by now if he went to prison.

Absolutely buck wild to watch Scottish Labour just hand the next election to the SNP in real time.

The trajectory of Ta Nehisi Coates is so fascinating in that he seems to have been one of the only liberals to really notice what was going on and articulate its contradictions - instead of learning from his measured awareness, other liberal commentators just seem to act like he never existed

Raquel's contract with us is up in a month and it would be *outrageous* if she weren't snapped up immediately for another job. Hardworking, friendly, brilliant to work with and just so astonishingly talented. If you need art, she comes highly recommended from me.

Palantir - the UK Labour Party’s favoured partner for stealing your NHS data.

I'm constantly amazed by the resilience of some retro games. Found this cassette lying on a shelf in a "vintage emporium". No case, the tape exposed to the elements for the best part of forty years. Still loads perfectly!

I also agree with this because it's beyond a doubt that what happened in the southern cone in the 1970s-1980s was fascism, flat out, and they all basically got away with it
