Today, MSF is going public with something we've been fighting behind closed doors for months: Gilead will not sell us their new HIV drug, lenacapavir.
The sticking point isn't even price, they just refuse to sell.

Daily Mail Headline: Pupils' drawings could be blasphemous under Islamic law, Labour councils tell schools - while music and dance classes may go against the teachings of Islam
Oh boy! What a headline...
Ask yourself:
"What am I being asked to believe?"
"Who am I being told to blame?"
Take a few seconds to imagine what the Daily Mail (And Telegraph, GB News and Express) WANT you to think is going on.
Let's see what's ACTUALLY happening...🧵

A Ben Ryan tweet, complaining about Michael Hobbes claim that therapists are able to tell gay from trans: I can assure you, having spoken to child psychologists at length about this very question, that they are not the bearers of some sort of cosmic intuition that discerns gay from trans in children. Nor has the field of pediatric medicine sought to systematically grapple with this question of how to separate one child from another. Some of the biggest names in the field simply leave the matter up to the kid, asserting that kids "know who they are."
How does Benjamin Ryan think therapy works?
Here he’s challenging @michaelhobbes.bsky.social claim that therapists know the difference between gay kids and kids who are trans.
How do therapists know a kid is depressed other than “trusting the kid?”
Mmmmm, stracciatella
Joani Reid who suggested Corbyn was a Russian asset despite zero evidence? Her husband? Ah fuck, she's gonna be LIVID.

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow
It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker
This was never about woman's sports
Many news outlets are reporting that some trans Kansans received letters warning that their licenses were being invalidated overnight.
This morning, Evan Urquhart spoke with a trans woman who found out on Bluesky that it would be illegal to drive her car.

London’s “worst mass eviction in recent history” is underway; hundreds of households across London told to get out of their homes this week by the same landlord, ahead of the renters rights act. The landlord? Billionaire Asif Aziz’s Criterion Capital. www.londoncentric.media/p/asif-aziz-...

Can't stop laughing at Keir Starmer's defence being "I asked the Prince of Darkness 'are you telling me the truth?' and he said 'yes' and now I have discovered that I was LIED to by the Prince of Darkness! The Prince of Darkness LIED to me!"

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment.
Excellent article!
I posted a @zoebread.bsky.social video yesterday to underline the rot of the Labour party control of Manchester yesterday and I'm posting another today. Fuck Andy Burnham, and Labour collectively.

Transphobes will never be content with excluding trans people from public life, they demand that everyone hate us as much as they do, that everyone should be elated by our absence and furious at our presence. They are utterly obsessed with us.
Their lives are so difficult 😔

The government want more coercive powers for the state against protests, and the main opposition party wants more coercive powers for the state against migrants.
Our political-media culture continues in a loop where the response to every perceived problem is yet more coercive powers for the state.
And why call it 'golden ticket'?
Disgraceful language. These people have lost everything. Should they also lose their spouses and children?
A reminder that last year 4,671 family reunion visas were granted.
4,671.
Does anyone think this number is a major problem for the UK economy and society?
