Hello, when you use the idiom β€œperfect is the enemy of good,” that’s intended for skills and hobbies, not as a justification to vote for politicians that will fund genocides.

Thanks

Wise words from the Scotch comic phenomenon, Jugger Morph.

Yeah; I've never understood it. Some of the colours are great and there are better options for others.

I think it's just that "I'm Interesting and Differentℒ️" type attitude that people like to adopt to make themselves seem more unique 🀣

It is, therefore, incredibly funny watching many of those same people reacting to the news that GW are changing the name of Citadel paints to Warhammer paints (a fairly meaningless branding exercise) like the loss of a beloved childhood pet 🀣

Almost every week since I joined the online mini space, I see someone acting haughty and looking down on anyone using Citadel paints.

"Oh no, I only buy Army Blaster 4000 paints that are available from one hobby shop in Cornwall, I'd *never* use those mainstream paints" is very much their vibe

New data shows surge in trans kids’ suicides following healthcare rollbacks | Good Law Project A freedom of information request by Good Law Project has found that deaths by suicide of trans young people under 18 surged following the withdrawal of gender-affirming healthcare

wes streeting has killed more young girls than ian huntley.

@bphillipsonmp.bsky.social is intent on the same.

the only difference is they're doing it via policy and paper pushing so it's not treated as the crime it actually is.

but the pair of them are *knowingly* killing children.

it's wild that @labourlist.bsky.social are bragging about this like it's a good thing.

im sure @emmaburnell.bsky.social approves of his bigotry but it's odd that the article claims he left the party when he didn't.

he is literally not welcome in the green party. labour picking up bigoted rejects.

β€˜It’s 10,000 people saying – we’re with you’: inside Trans Mission, a night of solidarity and joy for a community under stress Olly Alexander and Glyn Fussell’s starry, Live Aid-inspired shindig – featuring Christine and the Queens, Kae Tempest and Munroe Bergdorf – is a show of unity in a dark time for trans people

β€œI would love some kind of collective revolt where we could stop feeling like shit about everything. We could stop feeling so powerless.”

Trans Mission is next Wednesday – and this is such a lovely preview by @dorianlynskey.bsky.social in @theguardian.com ✨

I feel like I'm going mad whenever I read this shit. We've done what these fucking dickheads wanted! We've sold off public services, squeezed wages, cut spending, made every millionaire feel like a special boy. And still, anemic growth at best. It doesn't *work* lads!!

British female track and field athletes are being asked to cover the cost of their own Β£185 sex tests if they want to compete internationally. Because curbing trans people's rights to participate in anything subjects everyone to intrusive scrutiny and here, hefty expense. This is not a 'them' issue.

there are like 50 people in the country who want the UK to get involved in the Iran War, one of them is Kemi Badenoch, one of them is Nigel Farage, and the other 48 are newspaper columnists

This has been going on for a while now and has been kept quiet because the people who demanded the conditions be created for this to happen are a little sheepish that it's their fault. So it's interesting that the Times is breaking cover. But obviously, as always, we did say this would happen.

We've just learned that the person at the MHRA whose letter caused Wes 'I follow the clinical evidence' Streeting to cancel the puberty blockers trial is Professor Jacob George, the GC who enjoyed mocking trans people on his social media account.

Why did Wes Streeting cover up his name?
