First haircut/shave/hot towel of the year - feeling restored!
Before Brexit and Trump, I could be a loyal Brit, enthusiastic European and strong pro-Atlanticist. I never had to choose - they were multiple, overlapping layers of my identity. I had friends and connections in all three places; admired different aspects of each. Which one matters most to me now?
The problem with being into both leather and Doctor Who is I never know which subculture a gas mask profile picture in my circle is referring to
New vlog from me: I’ve been struggling against my adhd and my perfectionism too much on YouTube, so I’m just gonna start throwing out stuff that’s a bit more raw… youtu.be/QSb37B2o-nc?...

Yes, "pregnant people" is inclusive language that describes pregnant cis women AS WELL AS trans men and nonbinary people, a lot of whom can get pregnant. But it also describes, like, 12-year-old girls who get pregnant. Do centrist pig-dogs think THEY are "women" too? Coz...bit of a red flag, that.
The joy of aging!
Hope you get some clarity (no pun intended!)

"See!"
▪️ If it's not an immigrant, but they're not white (or don't have a white British name)...
"See! Next generation of immigrants!"
▪️ If it's a white guy with a British name...
"See! See what these immigrants made good peaceful people do?!"

It is a call for solidarity from organisations both large and small (including individuals), to stand together during a time where we are facing a global rollback of LGBTQ+ rights. Everyone, of all sexual orientations and gender identities, should consider sign it.
