i suppose there's every chance this was one of those telegram recruitment things which is possibly even scarier since it's so random and hard to predict

The background is distorted stripes of dark and light blue, green, orange, yellow and red. In the centre is a white square that says "Scottish Election 2026 - Party manifestos summary: LGBTQIA+ issues" At the bottom are the Equality Network and Scottish Trans logos.

and it's definitely raw? it's not like... liverwurst?

Graphic with Blue to Purple gradient background. In a white box in the centre it says "Important information for people on the Sandyford Adult Gender Service waiting list" There is an illustration of a megaphone. At the bottom is the Scottish Trans logo.

Sandyford informed us on Friday that they intend to start a ‘waiting list validation’ from today. This means that they will be contacting everyone on the adult waiting list to check their details are correct and that they wish to remain on the list. They have already done this exercise for the young person’s waiting list.

It is extremely important that if your contact details have changed since joining the list that you contact Sandyford to update them. People will be contacted in stages, so you might not be contacted straight away. If your contact details are correct, you do not have to do anything until Sandyford contacts you.

Once you are contacted, you need to respond within 14 days. You will be sent a short questionnaire to fill in. Sandyford have said that reminders to respond will be sent. We are trying to get information from Sandyford about what will happen if someone does not respond. If you have not heard from Sandyford by 1st June, please get in touch with them.

regular election period post:

we simply must legislate for uniformity in mail slots

but also fr seitan isn't hard to make and is probably the best meat replacement

once i'm done all the Various Busy Personal Life things i have going on right now i am desperate to make some seitan pastrami

i guess it makes an easier meat replacement since it's already pressed but it's god awful if you're trying to actually do chinese cooking

i do not understand how it got a great taste award it is rubbery and hard and not good unless you're using it to make crumbles

displeased with this trend of all the supermarkets having dry-ass tofoo instead of cauldron these days

greens only on 7% in glasgow southside feels incredibly wrong

i've always described irn bru as cream soda that hates you so i kinda feel like this was made for me

One year on from trans exclusion: Over 100,000 Women Say ‘Not In Our Name’ One year on from the UK Supreme Court ruling on the definition of ‘woman’ and ‘man’ thousands continue to show up for the trans community.

“We are not a counter-movement, we are the wider movement”

ok we legitimately probably could pay them to put whatever bluesky nonsense we want if they're this desperate

alf hog on the front page of the national i guess?

christ almighty this is horrific

the national has for a long time been one of the more decent papers for queer people and having trans columnists but it is spaffing all that good will up the wall by taking this ad, and on the front page no less!

LRH did love to pretend he'd learned 'eastern philosophies' in china in the 1920s

it's called "word clearing" and it's one of those foundational scientology beliefs - that "misunderstood words" are a source of all of human dysfunction

i find this anecdote interesting because i always wondered how much the celebrity scientologists take the beliefs and practices on board

i know we're taking about capital-a Acting here but looking stuff up obsessively in the dictionary is a scientology thing lol

recent*

it feels like it should be too early for midges especially given the decent snow and yet

probably have the wrong accent for it too tbf

if I didn't have a public facing job that would be very unhappy with me I would genuinely love to do this ngl

bsky being down for the entire snp manifesto launch is profoundly unhelpful to my cause of getting scotpol off twitter

them assuming some kind of green vote splitting in glasgow central (where they don't have a candidate) might explain this shonky result

one ward isn't the constituency i know but come on

also reform bearsden lol, there was a council byelection in bearsden three months ago where the snp came a distant, distant second and still beat reform

snp sweep apart from a yes-voting city with a locally popular candidate with high name recognition

sounds legit 🙄

lol omg what poll is this there is absolutely no way labour have a chance in glasgow central

Sarwar could be in front of a TV camera any time he likes today an say “if becoming FM relies on Reform votes, I will not put myself forward for FM” and put an end to it all. I don’t think he will.
