It's kinda wild how much more interaction my image posts get with keywords in alt text. great selfish reason to put alt text alongside the obvious accessibility part
Bus typo: Help us score the gift of life, DONATE BLOOB
BLOOB FOR THE BLOOB GOD!
I’m so tired of this bigotry. And so tired of the British media for engaging in this relentless campaign against our trans family.
Tbh, portraying yourself as *the* Christianity guy, the guy that started it all is some real king shit (derogatory)

I'm gonna become amish but for 1999
Okay feud with Comviq over (you're on thin fucking ice), now Motorola is my new nemesis for designing their phones in a stupid misleading way
Aerial view of large scale devastation inflicted on the southern Lebanese town of Bint Jbeil, with an Israeli tank parked in the center of the photo.
This is what Israel has done to Bint Jbeil, my hometown in southern Lebanon
I was shocked and offended a lot of university bc I did international relations and there's war crimes behind every door in the 20th century. but weirdly none of this shock & offence is ever about imperialist violence or racial segregation, it's you've gotta listen to bigots bore on abt bullshit
YT embeds no longer appear to show the title of the video, only channel name and thumbnail for me
This annoys me greatly
Also the two party system is bullshit
i'd also call your attention to how the guardian - ***nominally a liberal newspaper*** - frames this:
stonewall is struggling because it was 'uncompromising' on trans rights
not because the national media, guardian included, decided to hound a minority from public life
here's the article - it's just very classic reactionary centrist logic: the rising far right is scary, but if we stop being loud, stop provoking them, they'll stop hurting us
www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
this uk press increased its coverage of trans people 100 fold (60 articles/yr to 7,500, almost uniformly hostile)
they then say lgbtq+ people provoked that by advocating for themselves
put simply: are we as a country ready for when armed agents of the state start shooting citizens in the head in public for questioning them?
because that *is* what comes next & i think the only realistic answer is absolutely not
ok, so let's break this down - why am i SO bearish on the uk?
1. greens doing well is great, but on current polling reform would win a majority on 1/4 of the vote
today in 'the uk is not ready to resist fascism':
the new chair of our largest lgbtq+ charity praises j k rowing & wants to find common ground with her
remember during the gorton and denton byelection where @lucympowell.bsky.social tried to smear the greens as pro date rape?
labour are pro-rape. they are pro the raping of trans women
remember that whenever you go to the ballot
this is called 'v-coding' and happens when we're put in male prisons
I know it's not the point but man this messaging app design fucks
This is so gay
"It just felt like the floor had fallen out. Like all the support that I thought we had was gone. Maybe this is naive, but I didn't think that would happen in Massachusetts."
there is functionally a conspiracy to gaslight you into believing that, so it's understandable

For those unaware, the UK seems to be importing the blatant lies about abortion (no such thing as a post birth abortion) and anti choice agendas from the US. We can't assume any (hard fought for) rights are safe.
