Took note of this particularly stupid post the other day, and I wasn’t going to bother dunking but I think today shows that there are some very good reasons to want a healthy opposition whose leader doesn’t support the candidacy of barely reformed neo-nazis.

Deranged but surprisingly insightful musings. A goofy lil dude. A neurotic overthinker. A vicious little shit.
*discreetly approaches someone* “hello, are you a friend of medium?”
Something I find particularly disgusting about Rowling is how she has self-appointed as the defender of lesbians and gay men, while nastily dismissing the latter as "men with beards" and quietly pretending not to see the former when we dare to disagree with her.
So 'bearded men' or 'beardy men' is smart; It does so much with so little. It mocks us as little fashionistas attempting manhood. It allows us to be lumped in with every bad thing straight men have done. It masks that we are part of the affected community. It means you can just stop listening. 8/
I have dealt with many people who are "nice in person" or don't really believe half the bigoted shit they come out with and... Do you not think it is actually just as disgusting?
New PT at the gym has picked up on the fact my outfits always coordinate lol
Ooh look at all of you, living in different parts of London which are getting rain. THINK OF ME. THINK OF ME FONDLY, SUFFERING IN VERY MUCH STILL DRY STREATHAM.
Lets play a game of "how many searches do I have to do before it becomes clear that person you're arguing with is just a straightforward transphobe?"
"Worthy of respect! I'm worthy of respect!!" I continue to shriek as I enter day three of crashing out because of a genderless cartoon alien.
It's my protected belief, which is worthy of respect in a democratic society, that all transphobes are clapped and should be forced to watch Mrs Browns Boys on a continuous loop.
The first three series of My Hero have been put up on iPlayer and if, like me, you wanted to check where Ardal O'Hanlon stood on Graham Linehan, I am delighted to report:
“Yeah he mocked my domestic abuse, and yes he said he couldn’t be a teacher because he’s want to shag little girls, and yes he beat up his pregnant girlfriend, but he hated trans people so RIP my friend”
Right now, the worst person in the world is logging on to Twitter dot com to scold people for not being very hashtag BeKind.
Again, a fundamental issue with trying to cover the anti-trans movement is that explaining that they are habitually insincere and so routinely chose transphobia over women's rights does make you sound conspiratiorial, and yet...
I don't know about topping, but there is a a very good followup
I probably wouldn't be eulogising over someone who made nasty jokes about me speaking out about being an abuse survivor but then I am not a transphobe or an idiot.
Dear god
In many key ways, this year has kind of been like the good counterpart to 2016.
Can I celebrate this or do I have to wait a couple of hours to make sure he wasn’t, in fact, murdered

Might go back and rewatch some of the Covid Inquiry for nostalgia
I do wonder also to what extent "you're not even allowed to ask these questions" is actually "these questions are being asked and I don't like what the answers are"
It is quite strange how little the actual public inquiry we're having into the UK's Covid response - the one that's publishing in-depth reports every few months - factors into the "you're not even allowed to ask these questions" complaints. We are, in fact, officially asking these questions!
I wonder how my uncle who got hospitalised with Covid and became a full on antivaxxer and then secretly had another child without telling anyone is doing
