This feels like the turning point where I'm gonna shift more to Bluesky being my main platform. You can find me there at [email protected] and I'd love to keep as many connections as I can. That said, I'm nothing if not powered by contrariness, so I'll still be here

Some immediate steps I believe that all trans people should take: - Get your passport. Today. It takes time to come in and this will likely be shut down under Trump. - Update every ID your state allows you to. - Make sure you have a supply of medication in case of disruption

In Greening Grey Britain, @The_RHS revealed that between 2005 and 2015 alone, 3 million extra front gardens were paved over. This has huge implications for overheating, flooding, and biodiversity. Homeowners should be mandated to retain or create 50% 'natural' garden space.

Israel is carpet bombing Tyre. I don’t think people unfamiliar with this city understand what does this mean. Tyre is over 4,700 year-old & one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. It is included as a whole in the UNESCO World Heritage. My heart is aching😭
The soul of #Tyre can’t be shattered by bombs πŸ’” The city is now under heavy bombing!! #Lebanon

Yes, this shouldn't even be a question. The West has a long history of shielding it's own citizens from prosecution for War Crimes, and this should horrify -everyone-.

Okay, so even all evidence to the contrary, this doesn't seem to be a parody account and this man, in addition to sexism and racism, does indeed seem to have based part of his personality around what does and doesn't constitute a sexy cartoon bandicoot? πŸ™ƒ

The United Kingdom continues to crack down now on under 25 care. There are hundreds of reports of not filling HRT scripts for trans adults, and now they're explicitly shutting down surgeries under 25. Remember when they said we were lying when we said this would happen?

Labours new plans for benefit reform will save just Β£3BN according to the Office for Budget Responsibility. However according to HMRC’s latest report, the total amount of unpaid tax has surged to Β£43 billion. I suppose it’s easier & more ruthless fun to chase the vulnerable.

*Sigh* Ahh this again Approximately 20% of the worlds living Pygmy Hippos are in captivity, and this is a positive because that represents 20% more of a species in existence than would otherwise.

Fun fact: publically shaming arms dealers with the atrocities they profit from is great actually. Everyone should do it!

For a sense of the scale of what has been done to Gaza; by population if Gaza were a US City it'd be the 5th most populous. Or if someone leveled San Francisco, Seattle and Atlants *combined* and blocked all aid from reaching any of their inhabitants.
Holy Jesus, this guy’s right: it *is* 10%β€”or equivalent of THIRTY MILLION DEAD AMERICANS. (My sincere apologies but this is a negative hallucination: my mind wldn’t accept the larger figure.) This is a genocide, plain & simple. Each day is more horror… teapaw.org/ricfouad/status/184652…

Every fucking day Starmer's Labour finds new ways to vindicate me refusing to vote for them.
This is genuinely one of the worst policies I've ever read, even the Tories wouldn't go this far

No sensible person should want this. In the art you consume, regardless of medium, be it films, tv, games, comics, books or whatever, do you really want stuff made by best guess aggregate vs crafted with intent?
Do AI stans ever realise that most people (including them) are not very good artists or creatives and that's why we pay artists and creatives to make things?
