I'm a devout Pastafarian from the US who lives in the UK. Praise the #FSM I love my sphynx cat, wild hedgehogs, backyard ducks, breastfeeding, tabletop & pc/sandbox games, DIY home & craft, wildlife, science, tattoos, sex positivity + antifascism.
Keir Starmer appointed Peter Mandelson in full knowledge that he was friends with a convicted paedophilic rapist.
Wes Streeting's policies have caused trans children to commit suicide.
Labour just abolished the right to jury trials in many cases.
I do not give a shit about tit hypnosis.
I usually order an unflavored latte mostly because I prefer it simple, but also because it's funny when the barista yells "plain white Derek."
The BBC don’t like Manchester after their boy Matt Goodwin got beaten.

Her trip to Ireland was ruined by this one question?? Gee, I wonder why…
Man? The kid sounds entitled and obstinate. Yes she responded smartly in the situation - but making this sound like a positive human interaction is ridiculous. Its what most women learn to do in response to irrationally aggressive men when they feel they've been aggrieved by some minor occurrence.
I have watched this approximately 47 times and laughed out loud 47 times
Why play the 'Is it incompetence or evil?' game? It doesn't matter. If you're playing that game, you've lost.
Its the same thing anyways.
So stop.
This is a good example of why you shouldn't want to... its expensive to rely on.
(It is never going to be 100% avoidable, and should be prioritized for lifesaving/health uses and minimized for alternatives when possible. It's not evil, consumerism is overdependent to exploit this cost.)
Energy insecurity. Higher bills. Exposure to catastrophic economic consequences of Trump's wars.
That's what happens when you fail to shift fast enough to renewables, and cut back on support for clean energy.
Let's cut bills & create jobs through a clean power revolution.
An investigation from Transitics has revealed that, under a Democratic governor, Kansas secretly built a list of the state's trans people.
Today, Republicans just weaponized it to revoke their IDs.

This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker.

Screenshot of the same image posted on twotter on August 8, 2025, by the @sciencegirl/@gunsnrosesgirl3 content farmer account
Shared by someone with “No Gen AI” in her bio, who’s blocking people who point it out. Someone a *lot* of you apparently follow.
And oh hey, look where the pic on the left seems to have originated, per reverse image search - only one of the most obnoxious content thieves of twitter.
@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "Once again Reform are spreading misinformation & smears, and the press & the media seem to repeat them.. its really important that the media.. take responsibility so when Reform or Farage says something they don't just keep repeating it"👏👏👏
Here's an actually informative and *credible* video about the incident, no misinformation necessary.

I watched it in full, which is what makes the title infuriating. Why pretend like its even slightly believable? You know its not trump. Do you want to be Eric Cartman or a journalist, cause that was embarrassing. You're feeding a prank troll and the right wing - for what? It was a waste of my time.
Ffs, I'm done with @farronbalanced.bsky.social
They just posted a video entitled "Trump pretends to be someone else" in reference to the cspan prank caller, as if its not absolutely obvious that its a shitty impression, and it was immediately debunked.
It is insulting & clickbait trash.
This is even creepier when you think about the fact that most women at university are between 18 and 21 years old. These people are dangerous freaks.
anyway the consultation shuts tomorrow, one minute to midnight UK time: www.gov.uk/government/c... Amnesty have some good guidance here. Go on: media.amnesty.org.uk/documents/Am...
A colour photo of a quite deformed pepper sitting on a woodgrain counter against a white textured wall. The pepper clearly shows two green legs, a green arm and an orange arm, and the stem cut short in the middle of what looks like a lumpy bowed head. It is instantly recognizable as a dejected human being. "Not sure if I should cook him or ask him what happened." so sad Realistic_Revenue_87 on reddit. Not clear if they're the originator.
me too pepper me too
The other week, we went to do a final clean out my late MiL’s house and a non-binary friend came out to help us get rid of heavy garden stuff.
Several days later, our toddler goes “I have a question about Alex”
I was like oh dear here we go but then the question was “why didn’t they have a table?”
And here is my story: ‘Absolute hell’: Irishman with valid US work permit held by Ice since September

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit
“The book encourages parents to put children in anti-affirmation medical and educational spaces, and to cut off loved ones who support their child's transition.”
Writing about trans youth as a product of “ideology” is dehumanising. This is the language of conversion practices. It’s child abuse.

28?! How & where?! There are 5 in my whole house! Two desk chairs (one at each desk), two folding chairs in the dining and one stool in the laundry room. If beanbags count then its 7. We have a small sofa & 4 camping chairs in the garage too but I can not fathom how *28* chairs fit in house?!
This bastion of moral virtue has opinions about the Green Party.
Just remember that as they continue to attack us.
This is who they are. Mask is off.
