Oh my god some creep has set up a page/petition to get Rosemary MacCabe deported? Hansard Stans are not OK.

New Bobby Fingers video came out this week. That's tonight's ridiculousness sorted.

People who want you to speak kindly about dead abusers wouldn’t have wanted you to say it when he was alive either. Hearing about abuse is uncomfortable, they don’t know how to feel or respond and so they prefer the culture of silence that allows abusers to operate.
Folks, you'll never guess who's birthday it is todya
Rod Liddle? I'll tell you about Rod Liddle He's the guy who ran away and left his wife for a young one and also he's Dead
Bluesky needs a fixed tag for "this is explicitly not for the USA", probably blinking in red.
The same people that moan about school closures during Covid were also the ones moaning about how an increased number of young people are on sickness and incapacity benefits. And they won’t see any connection in those two things, because journalists apparently don’t do that sort of thing now.
I know one person. Rose knows at least one person. Another friend knows one person. That's already way too many people. My friend was pre mobile phone so her experience is different to Rose's friends but the core is the same. If you didn't know before now that's ok. Not everyone hears stuff.
Fuck it. I am sick to the back teeth of people today saying they never heard Glen Hansard was a groomer so therefore those of us who did hear it shouldn't talk about it. He groomed teenage girls. He was well known for it in certain circles. He would give out burner phones for them to text him from.
The HSE are doing a survey for trans people accessing trans healthcare and general healthcare in Ireland. If you're trans it's worth filling out. gcn.ie/hse-survey-s...

Strolling to the pharmacy. Passed the barmaid in the local parking the car with her new squeeze, who inherited her nickname from her day. The man in the antique shop performing for an older lady wearing a red beret who has stopped to chat, a toddler and her dads
This is why you dont try to compromise or concede anything to these horrors

Isn't it weird how alleging dodgy behaviour when someone is alive is met with threats of defamation lawyers and doing it when they're dead is undignified and unfair. It's almost as if, stay with me on this, people just don't want to know.

Stop giving family members of disabled people a platform over disabled voices. Family members are important but we should not be prioritizing them in media stories about issues affecting disabled people. If you can't find a direct link, find a DPO. Find an advocate with the same disability.

The cat is asleep behind me knees and she is TOUCHING MY LEG WITH HER FEET. The paw of "mine" has been bestowed. I am blesséd
I am so fucking sick of being told to be respectful and not to speak ill of the dead. Maybe try not being a piece of shit so nobody has any ammunition to speak ill of you dead or alive, how about that?
It’s ok to feel torn when someone dies whose art meant a lot to you but who was accused of predatory behaviour during their lifetime. I have those feels about Bowie. It’s collaborationist to try to shut up people who don’t have your nostalgic view of the deceased and care more about the behaviours.
Biggest day in a while for the "actually it's ephebophilia" community all the same.
Decided to wait a few days to give an Uber driver a low rating so he wouldn't know it was me. Opened Uber today and automatically rated 5* and left a tip 😭😭😭 Dude didn't even pull over, just stopped in the middle of the road.
Reminder: DO NOT buy new HP crap. Nothing. For any reason. Every dollar you give JKR funds her global program of trans and intersex eradication. When you choose to buy new HP crap, you participate in real material evil.
Something to be aware of. HBO has that Potter show coming, so you are going to see a *lot* more partner deals like Drop and CGE. They are going to market the HELL out of this. They are going to do their best to sell this no matter what Rowling says or does.
