No way!!! Who knew that continually telling the majority of your voters to fuck off would have this impact?

These people are just wrong about literally everything.

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

'One afternoon in London, Díaz had filmed Yarvin getting his portrait painted with Lord Maurice Glasman' Yep, Labour peer hangs out with man who thinks Anders Brevik had the right idea but the wrong way of going about it www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

To hate another human being for their gender identity or sexual orientation is the marker of someone whose humanity is fundamentally broken.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

He resigned because a report *he requested* found extremely credible evidence that he harassed about a dozen women. He stepped down in disgrace because he would have been impeached. He's corrupt and shouldn't be allowed anywhere near City Hall. Don't rank Cuomo.

On Sunday, my friend, Jonathan Joss was murdered and it took me a minute to find the words... Like so many of our lives, Jonathan's existed at the powerful intersections of Indigeneity, queerness, visibility, and vulnerability. He was fierce, funny, flawed, and real in every way that mattered.

Another one in “we could ban all press outlets and arrest all journalists and it would lead to an improvement in the public’s understanding of politics.”

guys we HAVE to get rid of DEI. it’s about FAIRNESS

Had a friend die of colon cancer at 39. After that all the homies got colonoscopies and two had precancerous polyps. Seriously stay on top of this if you can!

Oh no, not the AI industry, an eleventybillion-dollar sector that employs fives of people

Hillbilly Elegy looks like a gag in 30 Rock where Jenna is playing both roles in an attempt to win two Oscars for the same movie.

Christ.

Saw a school bus with the slogan "Live. Laugh. Learn"

As well he should

why read anything JKR has to say when there's this one Xiu Xiu lyric that will always serve as an accurate summary

Enhorabuena a todos los hijos de puta que seguís apoyando a Israel, sois cómplices de este GENOCIDIO.

Despicable.

Gary Lineker said that killing kids was devastating and definitely wrong and also that trans people in sports isn't realistically a proper issue, that maybe people should chill out and now the people who say that I'm "professionally offended" fucking hate him.

The pervasive intertwining of sex/gender is discussed in great detail here, helping to illustrate the asininity of the UK Supreme Court predicating a judgment on its non-existence

BREAKING: The Israeli military has issued forced evacuation orders for Khan Younis, Gaza’s second-largest city, warning there will be an “unprecedented attack”. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/7w6uku

When you are ensuring Gary Lineker is removed for calling for compassion while Sharron Davies and Martina Navratilova are still employed while lying about trans people regularly, you are broken beyond repair.

Preposterous country

Gary Linkeker has been consistently bold, principled and spoken the truth clearly. The fact the BBC has now placed itself in direct opposition to these values demonstrates the spiral our media is in. We urgently need reform. Solidarity, once again, to Gary. ✊🏼

Extremely common thing here yeah. And I'm open to believing that Elegabalus was not a trans woman, but the fact that her political rivals were calling her a trans woman to justify assassinating her really seems like it proves people understood what a trans woman was.

my friend yaya covered the disgraceful telegraph billboard 🥰

Sánchez defiende la expulsión de Israel de Eurovisión: "Lo que no podemos permitir son dobles estándares"

I will say the 2009 meetings with the EHRC were frustrating - they really didn't "get" trans experience, and Trevor Phillips (the chair at the time) especially didn't seem to care for us, let alone about us. At the same time, we were actually in the room and able to hold a debate with them.

"Biden gave himself vaccine turbo cancer" is absolutely going to be a thing in the far right influencer sphere this week.

imagine if he was president again lol

This is on Facebook, I scrolled for a bit and every single comment I saw, no exaggeration, was either "you liar, too many foreigners, vote Reform" or "you're meant to be the Labour Party what is this fash shit". There was nobody going "thank you, Sir Keir".

Along with a man and a woman who are trans, and someone who is intersex, we are suing the EHRC and the Equalities Minister in respect of the disgraceful and unlawful EHRC guidance. In line with our transparency principles we are publishing the full 32 page legal letter. goodlaw.social/2ihj

lmao, dropping this after market close on a friday. g fucking g.

As a result of US sanctions, the ICC says it is unable to properly function or investigate ongoing cases and may not survive the next four years. The US is destroying international law to protect Israel.

Who could have guessed?

El vídeo es real: las presentadoras suizas de Eurovisión han metido esta frase: "Eurovisión es no política, estrictamente neutral, no importa si eres bueno o brutal" www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hoal...

"Sinn Féin officially banned from Trans and Intersex Pride Dublin after period of engagement," says this press release from Trans and Intersex Pride Dublin.

a lie, but also incredibly telling that a gay man who used to work for Stonewall would even be in a position where he needed to ‘build bridges with the LGBT+ community’

Started reading 'Get In' about how Starmer came to power. Very clear early on Starmer only wanted to become PM as a power trip. Nothing else. No better than Johnson. In many ways, Starmer is worse.

🚨 BREAKING | Keir Starmer's favourability rating collapses to an all-time low (-46) ✅ Favourable – 23% (-4) ❌ Unfavourable – 69% (+5) Via @YouGov, 14 May (+/- vs 29 Apr)

94% of Reform voters disapprove of Starmer. The vast majority of the cohort Starmer and McSweeney are desperate to win over already despise them. This information will not stop them from trying. This is electoral suicide being framed as 5-D Chess.

In short, Starmer has taken a massive hit among Labour voters, for no gain elsewhere, while boosting Farage's popularity, including doubling his ceiling among Labour voters. I.e., the political scientists were right, Morgan McSweeney was horrendously wrong.

THIS. My son did an English Language A level with @icslearn.co.uk and it was nastly, the most soulless, petty-minutiae-obsessed thing. It taught him nothing - not how to craft a pitch, an article or a story, and certainly no passion, no love of creative writing (which was what he wanted to do).

No es fácil renunciar a ningún trabajo. No están obligadas a hacerlo, pero hay bandas que lo han hecho igual. Por lo verdaderamente importante.
