my workplace has asbestos ceiling tiles that the boss has been pulling out an dpissing about with

to be fair i guess i can see why those men have developed an elaborate fanfic of reality where trans women are men desperately using any excuse to infiltrate and co-opt women's issues for their own self-aggrandising ends. write what you know.

EVERY TRANS PERSON WHO KILLED THEMSELVES AS A RESULT OF THE CASS REPORT AND THE EHRC ""GUIDANCE"" ON WHETHER TRANS PEOPLE ARE ALLOWED TO LIVE IN SOCIETY WAS KILLED BY THE STATE TO DEFEND AN ABSTRACTED FICTION THAT A "MAN" IS A "BIOLOGICAL MAN" AND A "WOMAN" IS A "BIOLOGICAL WOMAN"

I like how all the uk ‘gender critical’ organisations are passing around completely wildly incorrect legal advice after the ehrc guidance stuff it’s going to be really interesting what happens with that assuming the guidance goes through

All of them seem to think it’s some kind of bathroom ban which makes it illegal for trans people to go into the toilet that doesn’t match their asab and also that it makes unisex spaces illegal so the sex matters people put out a thing about how you should sue trans people in small claims court if you see them in public toilets but the guidance doesn’t say that (it’s for how businesses should handle cases, not individuals, and it doesn’t make it in any way a crime for individuals to do anything) and that’s also not how uk law works. so it’s going to be interesting what happens when one of them tries to actually take this advice because so far it seems like they’re just pulling the ‘you’re a misogynist’ card whenever someone points out that, completely apart from whether it would hypothetically be ok to do that, you just straight up can’t do it because it’s completely legally unsound lol

Truthfully it's hard for me to take concern trolling about how the right allegedly keeps winning because of "identity politics and ideological purity tests" seriously because that just seems like a polite way to say "I want to throw trans ppl under the bus & be able to use slurs"

I think the right keeps winning largely because right-wing politics are much less challenging to society's status quo

Fascinating hearing Ruairidh Gray talking about the importance of preserving traditional music when what I've seen from him performing his idea of tradition is Jimmy Shand and Andy Stewart.
