If the world is getting a little too much may I recommend the inexplicably obsolete word ‘latibulating’, from the 17th century? To latibulate is to find a cosy corner somewhere and hide in it.
Norrie’s always said that he deserves a medal for putting up with me all of these years. Today, I was honoured to present him w/ a long service medal today for distinguished service. ❤️🏅😁 #WellEarned
Though Norrie said I deserve it more than him… definitely not!!!
Today Norrie & I celebrate our Ruby Wedding Anniversary.
Can’t believe it’s been 40 years already. I still remember our wedding day so vividly. We were just kids when we married & now we are a pair of grumpy auld gits 😉🤣 but I wouldn’t change a thing!

I wrote a new piece about women’s rights and whether or not I want trans people dead. (Spoiler: I don’t)👇

🚨 Rape culture doesn’t begin and end with an act of sexual violence.
It lives in the:
🔴 attitudes that excuse it
🔴 stereotypes that blame survivors
🔴 silence that protects perpetrators
There is #NoExcuse for abuse — or for the culture that lets rape culture persist.

You can do everything right and still become disabled. You can eat right, exercise, take vitamins, get sun, and still become disabled. No one is immune to disability. We’re all vulnerable. The sooner you acknowledge that, the sooner you’ll realize accessibility benefits everyone.

"Free Palestine" is NOT antisemitic, it is NOT hate speech, it is NOT a call to kill all Jewish Israelis
"Free Palestine" is a call for all Palestinians to have EQUAL HUMAN AND CIVIL RIGHTS to Jewish Israelis and to be FREE from persecution, apartheid, ethnic cleansing and GENOCIDE
ALL DECENT, HUMANE, MORAL PEOPLE should say, "Free Palestine"

Irish singer-songwriter Aaron Rowe has pulled out of opening for Ed Sheeran after the tour dropped Macklemore for making "Free Palestine" speeches.
"I have made the decision to withdraw as a support act for Ed Sheeran's 'The Loop' North American Tour. I don't take the decision lightly. Ed has been a friend to me and has changed my life, I could never thank him enough for this. But as Irish people, we know all too well about genocide, forced famine and violent occupation.
I cannot stand by and allow billionaires to use their position of power to silence the rightful voices of those who speak up against Israeli genocide and who highlight the savage murder of children. I would lose all respect for myself to carry on as normal.
I need to be true to myself and my ancestors who resisted colonization, and fought for a freedom that I enjoy today in Ireland."

Finneas has dropped out of Ed Sheeran's tour alongside fellow openers Aaron Rowe, Lukas Graham and Beoga in solidarity with Macklemore.
"Artists must not be silenced when they speak up for the oppressed.
I have decided to withdraw from my upcoming tour dates with Ed Sheeran. I stand with Palestine and its people," Finneas wrote in a statement supporting Macklemore, who was dropped from the tour after making "Free Palestine" speeches on stage.

He is not sobbing for what he did to his wife and encouraged other people to do to his wife. He is not sobbing because he drugged and raped a woman repeatedly over 20 years. He's not sobbing because he treated a woman as an object for the gratification of his own sick fantasies.
He's sobbing because he has to face consequences.
So does she. Every single day. But he's not sobbing about that.
"Husband sobs as he admits 60 charges of drugging and raping his wife without her knowledge over a 20-year period: Thirteen other men face charges against the same British woman
A husband broke down in tears as he admitted 60 charges against him involving drugging and raping his wife over a 20-year period.
The man, in his 60s, repeatedly sobbed as he gave guilty pleas this afternoon to the dozens of charges of rape, assault by penetration, sexual assault and attempted rapes"

Dear members of the media:
Stop saying “had sex with” when you’re referring to minors.
Children can’t consent.
“Having sex” implies consent.
When an adult assaults a child, it’s rape.
You’re enabling the predator class by refusing to call it what it is.

Three out of four of the nations in a ‘voluntary union’ want to ask their citizens if they want to leave. And are being told by the fourth they can’t. No matter your opinion on independence you surely have to recognise the absurdity of this.

Every person is only one accident, diagnosis or life-changing event away from disability. This debate is not about 'them'. It's about all of us. #ChallengeTheNarrative

Disability benefits are discussed endlessly. The daily realities of disability are not. It's time to focus on lived experience, not political soundbites. #ChallengeTheNarrative

A teenage boy seriously assaulted a girl.
People immediately reminded everyone that he was young and had his whole life ahead of him.
The girl was also young.
She also had her whole life ahead of her.
But somehow his age became a reason to protect his future, while hers became something she was expected to recover from.
We need to stop treating a boy's potential as more important than a girl's trauma.

Please sign if you don’t want women to lose their words.
A new petition in the UK which would “Require Government departments, NHS, education and publicly funded bodies to use the words women, girls, mothers and pregnant women as the primary and default wording in policies, guidance and public messages. These words must not be replaced, removed, diluted or overshadowed by alternative wording.
“We believe clear, sex-specific language is essential to safeguarding and safe healthcare for women, men and children, ensuring that biological differences, risks and needs are properly recognised and understood.”
