My daughter has written a pretty astonishing short story/novella. Well I was astonished.
Who's out there and looking to publish LGBTQ+ dystopia fiction? Bluesky seems the kind of place to ask, and I have no idea about this stuff.
These people are *obsessed* with posturing as savvy politics understanders. And you have to understand it is all affect. What we've seen in the last decade is not that there is a cadre of quiet competent geniuses behind the scenes, but that they're mostly just buffoons, charlatans and grifters.
Israel hit all over Beirut. Strikes were in nearly all the neighborhoods surrounding my house. Reports saying many injured and dead. Israel seems to be intensifying before a ceasefire is implemented
I have a proposal: the nuclear football should be handed over to a Turkish ice cream man
Looking for a nice distraction from current events? Why not check out the 1953 film THE WAGES OF FEAR
Absolute fucking ghouls.
she seems to be coming to physically look like Katie Hopkins more and more too
Zack Polanski• @zackpolanski.bsky.social t's now been 3 hours since our supposed "ally" Donald Trump threatened genocide on a country of 93 million people. We've had absolutely nothing from the UK government. This doesn't come in a vacuum either - every day the US & Israel have been murdering innocent people. 83 Mark Wrigley @e-rocks.bsky.social • 1h Zack there is a time and a place and you are not in it
It is never a good time to stop a just genocide according to the sensible adults in the room.
If we're keeping count of approved genocides, big ally of the US and UK the UAE facilitated the genocide in Sudan as well
It's so clear that the bipartisan consensus is that this genocide should take place. So moderate, so sensible.
Oh sorry, that's the THIRD good genocide.
The correct time is *AFTER* the world's second good genocide is completed. We have to stand by our allies who share our values.
Let's annotate.
1. Begins with a CLEAR statement laying out WHO the culprit is and what he is doing.
2. Specifically says what he thinks needs to happen next.
3. Calls out his own institution.
THIS IS THE BASEMENT in terms of a response & his colleagues are underground.

This is Marvel slop for Anglo-Israeli fascism.
there’s nothing american about foreign election interference for domestic political gain, says professor of history
Israel bombed it on Passover.
I am waiting to hear European condemnations of this genocidal statement. I expect to be disappointed...
Perhaps the German Chancellor will once again say that the time for discussing international law is not now...
"History will judge-" let me stop you right fucking there, history doesn't do fucking shit, I'm a historian, let's be clear here: elected officials need to do their fucking jobs, right now, before it happens, or future historians will judge THEM. Everyone knows and knew who Trump was.
Pretty sure the same thing happened to me in 2019. There was this insane headbanger anti-Corbyn guy who posted a huge screed about me, and SC's partner retweeted every single post. It was of course spectacularly libelous but it's not like I could really do anything about it
It’s likely she didn’t know her husband was regularly setting hundreds of feral right wing crackpots on members of the public, and that wouldn’t be her fault regardless. But he was doing that, very enthusiastically.
He was the one who deleted his social media after that video emerged of him trying to convince the Britain First fash clowns that Sadiq Khan is not planning Sharia law. Not his MP wife’s fault, of course, but this incident always springs to mind when said MP gets up on her high horse about civility.

This Post was deleted by the Post author. Learn more Flying_Rodent @flying_rodent X.com I am saying that you are like an excitable little boy, charging around the internet with a wooden sword and a bucket on your head, ticking people off. It seems like a reasonable and well-evidenced claim to me.
Just noting that the deleted tweets here were from the now-extinct account of a certain MP’s husband, who used to set his very unpleasant followers on me about once a fortnight or so. Here, he was demanding that I meet him in person for a physical fight, because I compared him to Oor Wullie.
“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.
*Starmer voice* "It was a defensive nuclear strike launched from US soil within the borders of the United Kingdom, but we are still not involved: I want to be very clear about that."
Wireless Festival makes you pine for the nazi free incompetence of All Tomorrow's Parties.
"That Nazi was load-bearing actually"
It's the extension of three years of Just Genocide Theory that every sensible Western politician already agreed upon.
It's not genocide because centrists and fascists are all in agreement that Muslims aren't human and our elimination is the prerequisite of western civilisation.
