Eye-wateringly stupid defence from Rowling’s team here - ‘She does not support legal actions aimed at harming transgender people.’ - Really? So that £70,000 towards the bathroom ban was by accident? The JKR Women’s Fund was made by an impersonator? At least have the spine to admit you want us dead

First thing the Blizzcon attendees see as they join the queue for this year’s show.

When democrats shrink away from supporting LGBTQ rights, they are validating Republican framing on LGBTQ issues. Trans rights are not some guilty thing they should be ashamed of and try to avoid. You need to stand up and say that people should have the freedom to live their lives as they wish.

Gay marriage was a new right that we lgbtq people were fighting for back then. Trans healthcare, sports, gender marker changes, etc have been around for years, decades in some instances. This is like a dem coming out NOW and opposing gay marriage in 2026.

The number of people still seemingly unaware that Substack has a Nazi problem means it’s apparently worth mentioning yet again that Substack has a fucking Nazi problem.

New guidance - set to come into force in September - says teachers must not use materials that “encourage” pupils to question their gender.

Don't have anything new to post atm, so here's a quick WIP lol~ #deltarune #wip

Normalise saying 'fascist propaganda' instead of 'culture wars'

also, she hasn't got more moderate, she's always had two lines of rhetoric, one for the insiders, and one she shows to the liberal press which is "well of course when they've tried every other possible method to cure themselves the real freaks should be allowed to wear a dress"

Chaz Stein@charlottestein.bsky.social · 2w ago

The reason JKR is suddenly saying more and more “moderate” seeming things is not because her views are “moderate”, you daft shits. It’s because she is registering that her extremely overtly transphobic points are now making her very unpopular.

You can simply ask the model to audit itself and it will, very happily, explain how biased and unsourced it is. I may just write it up, have a small preview. Maybe one day transphobic grifters will one day learn how to do basic guardrailing.

First they came for queerphobic gay men who are white supremacists. And I laughed & laughed. But on regaining my composure I saw it as a clear sign we must take heed of that they can come after any one of us, & very much want to.

THEY ARE PUTTING PEOPLE IN CAMPS THEY PUT MILO IN A CAMP AND THEN DEPORTED HIM

Nope. There is no animus. You're playing with an automated algorithm that's being assigned too many privileges with outcomes based on probability. That's like "shit I lost control of this giant bolder I was rolling down a crowded street, it must be magic."

FA mods have now come up with the claims that I was asking for it by not saying up front that I didn't want to be sent unsolicited pornography and not locking my account to exclusively SFW content (vile, even ignoring that the porn was an external link). @furaffinity.net's mods behave like rapists

Illusn@illusn.bsky.social · 2w ago

Fuck the @furaffinity.net mods so much! They're really out here protecting sex offenders by refusing to take action against someone who sent me unsolicited porn and claiming that doing so somehow wasn't sexual harassment!!?

We need to end the culture of the NHS can harm trans people with impunity. The idea that we cannot demand real accountability is wrong. An institutional problem is a people problem.

The launching of an “independent review” cannot support the suspension of services. The minimum requirements for any suspension to occur are, firstly, a clear justification (a necessity test), and secondly, a time-bound preliminary review (for example, a working group reporting back within 14 days).

They should all lose their job.
