A white supremacist superpower has been ruthlessly and sadistically oppressing a nearby developing island nation – that’s never committed an offense against it – for decades. For absolutely no rational, justifiable reason whatsoever.

Concerns for LGBTQIA+ people after changes made to Home Office asylum interviews

Seems pretty anti semitic to equate a genocidal colonial state with Jewishness.

Drinking espresso martinis, discussing with my fiancé at what point we need to flee the UK. I don't want to leave my home. My family. My friends. With every passing month, it feels more and more inevitable. We are losing so hard and I can't see how it stops.

Help! My symbolism! It's so overt! And very explicit!

Well well well between this and the call to proscribe Bash Back we really are through the looking glass where property damage is now “terrorist violence“, PA proscription really did open the door to the authoritarianism knocking

This is absolutely beyond the pale. Criminal damage is *not* fucking terrorism. And changing the crime *after* the jury has delivered its verdict is fucking kangaroo court stuff. Prosecutors call for Barclays protesters to be sentenced under UK terror laws giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

I’m just a simple Internet user, but it seems to me that the UK government shouldn’t use this man’s website for official communications, I dunno.

Here is a call for the murder of Home Office ministers + officials by the X user endorsed by the site owner Elon Musk.

please educate yourself about the historical development and present day topography of my crusty anus

You won't catch me posting matrix or terminator bits in relation to real-world AI deployment because that would constitute a reproduction and endorsement of the foundational marketing lie that these technologies ought to be conceived of as comparable to the "thinking machine" science fiction premise

(Having just served in the government introducing the greatest setbacks in lgbt rights since Thatcher) “i am so proud of what we achieved for lgbt rights in these last two years“

Quick question why the fuck isn't he in some form of physical prison

Wrote this on how the conditionality of Englishness by the rabid horde of anti-immigration sentiment means you can’t be surprised when people don’t want to support England.

London Review of Books@lrb.co.uk · 3w ago

‘Englishness feels like a conditional status. Limited leave to remain English. For all the problems back in Kinshasa, one thing that has never been said to me there is that I am not really Congolese.’ @judeinlondon.com on Englishness with inlimits, from the blog. www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2026/ju...

If you call Beira's Place, the rape shelter JK Rowling set up specifically so she could deny help to rape victims she suspects of being trans, your call is not confidential and may be listened to by JK Rowling, who may tweet to her audience of millions to ridicule you and express contempt for you.

This is the context of JK Rowling putting a survivor of rape or sexual assault on blast for having the gall to seek help

"At a time when LGBT rights seem to be under threat"

At a time when LGBT rights seem to be under threat across the world, Pride is more important than ever. A huge thanks to the Wokingham Pride team for inviting me to speak at Elms Field over the weekend.

When guys are like “that’s not rape, all my friends have done that,” that’s exactly what we’re talking about. That’s the problem. Rape is so common and unpunished that a guy could casually reveal all his friends are rapists and not see it as a problem.

2,700 excess deaths have been estimated in England and Wales due to heatwaves and wild fires are burning across the UK and they’re talking about “eco zealots”

Scoop: Andy Burnham will vote FOR Shabana Mahmood's immigration crackdown in the Commons tonight. Dozens of Labour MPs had written to him urging him to water down the Immigration and Asylum Bill, warning the party is “losing progressive voters”. Story 👇 www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/andy-b...

“Thought you were supposed to be against hate and intolerance” nope. I’m for justice, and that requires hating injustice and those who seek to uphold it. You can’t be tolerant of people who are intolerant of your mere existence, because that’s not tolerance, it’s submission.

Two headlines from today's papers

Oh, they're just going to double down and not learn shit from this. Emma, today: "I don't really care if, say, like Bernie Sanders or AOC go home and they're a secret Nazi, but they go out and they vote for the right things." Either incredibly stupid and/or a terrible person.

A few people asked why I didn’t include @ryangrim.bsky.social and his response to all this in this video. Not only did I record it before his comments, but it appears that he only posts his pro-rape comments on Xitter. Probably bc Nazi bars also are Rape bars.

I put off making a 2nd video about Graham Platner since my 1st in Nov 2025, as that one stayed relevant: he's an embarrassing liar who should've been jettisoned immediately. Many progressive commentators disagreed, and now they've bullied a rape victim into going public skepchick.org/2026/07/the-...
