Shon Faye spot on as always

Except the 🇭🇺 boxer did not say this. Firstly, the 🇭🇺 language has no gendered pronouns. Secondly, Hámori has referred to Khelif as a woman just yesterday. Thirdly, here is the original quote that Balázs Orbán modified: "I trust in God, because if He wants me to win, I will win."

thinking about Judith Butler on grievability. Palestinians cannot be mourned in death because they have never counted as lives to begin with. We know this, we see it elsewhere too, but sometimes the hierarchy of human life is so clear it takes your breath away.

Why does the gym have so many weights that would be easier to move with a forklift?

I bring a “I think using chatgpt and similar programs is morally wrong” vibe to my workplace that my coworkers don’t really like.

Remember when Ben Ryan and Jesse Singal said that we were lying when we read the very clear intent to target trans adult care in the Case Review? UK GPs are pulling people off their hormone therapy. They want to do this in the US too. Believe them.

HRT isn't complex it's just politically unpopular

As I’ve been saying, the UK objective is to wipe trans people out. No transitioning, no healthcare for adults or young people. It’s a soft, quiet genocide by @WesStreeting The Labour Party NHS England . Hundreds are going to die. Meanwhile, the exact same puberty blockers and HRT will

This is both true and important. It made queer people like me want to leave UK literary culture. You'd walk into your local indie bookshop and there would be a table about how your trans friends were pedos who didn't deserve human dignity, from publishers across the spectrum.

It's been a long time coming, but the BBC has finally progressed from referring to harassment and bullying of transgender people as "trans views" to describing homophobia as "homosexuality views" (For context the view in question was that being gay was wrong)

A huge thanks to Freya Whiteford UofG PhysAstro for visiting the lab today to tell us more about OpenFlexure openflexure.org What a remarkable open-source, 3D-printed microscope 🔬!!! An ideal visit for #FossilFriday to try it out on some 407 million year old Rhynie chert!

crazy how people are posting "alex salmond has died. my thoughts are with his family" and not "alex salmond has died. my thoughts are with his victims"

Even if this were true - human rights are universal. They are not transactional. The whole point of speaking out on behalf of civilians being killed in their tens of thousands is that they do not deserve what is happening to them. It is not to get our backs scratched in return.

Why is it that whenever a woman or girl is murdered the media coverage is some version of "Gosh, what a promising chap, what a shame that whole murdering someone thing happened to him"

i wish my c!s friends understood what a deliberate and concerted effort every major news outlet is currently making to sell the narrative that people like me are okay to murder. i wish anyone cared how young we die. they just look away, it’s easier not to think about it too hard.

reminds me of this quote by Ursula K. Le Guin
