The GC world cup 2023! Who knows if twitter/me/the world will survive the year, but while there's daftness of this calibre let's face the music and dance the irrationality tango.
The right to have an erection in the ladies toilets is not a human right.

So why did the right-wing run with this particular story?
@hopenothate
gave us an assessment of our findings and said it is not a new tactic, and an efficient one at that. The aggregation of lots of anti-trans stories across globe is used to "whip up hate" against trans people
“Cherry-picking” negative cases of transgender people which support far right-messaging from international sources is not new, Patrik Hermansson, senior researcher at Hope Not Hate, told us. “This is true for many target groups and it is here used against transgender people,” he said, after analysing our findings. HE explained: “By curating, often minor, local stories from across the globe they can give the impression that an issue is happening all the time, everywhere. Each case, even if it happens on the other side of the planet, contributes to build negative beliefs among the consumers of this content. “It is an effective way to inflate an issue as, like in this case, they rarely cover changes that contradict their argument. Like in the case of giving less focus on the UK Government’s blocking of Scotland’s gender legislation reforms.”

Scene: Starbucks at Glasgow Central station (in black and white). Graham: Can I have a glass of water, I've got something in my eye Handsome stranger: Can I help you I'm a doctor. Graham: That's how it all began, through me getting a little piece of grit in my eye.
Just had one of the most pleasant experiences of this whole fight. Thanks to the gentleman I met at Glasgow Station! That was a very satisfying encounter!

Heartfelt sympathy to the family of Nicola Bulley and hoping she is found soon. Everyone else, including the press needs to keep their half witted theories to themselves.

Ok they are doing more than virtually anyone else who is sitting on inherited wealth and I don't know what their individual personal circumstances are. Sure some people in Guyana are very happy with this gesture. But we need to acknowledge just how much wealth came from slavery.

Today in 'having a normal one', Glinner's fan base is trying to hand deliver letters to comedians. We still have post madam and I'm sure his agent will be pleased to file your thoughts in the appropriate receptacle.
Tweet from Name Redacted replying to @Glinner. Nooo! was looking forward to seeing you here - was great to see you at Reformers' Tree last Sunday. I told you about my mission to hand deliver a letter to Richard Herring - didn't manage it. But it was great evening. Stephen Merchant was brilliant. And Fern Brady great too.

2. Watch out for them deliberately trying to cause trouble and or infiltrate your space in 'disguise' - yes this did happen in Manc. They'll be looking to provoke you so they can claim to be victims. Look out for each other

Good morning to everyone protesting in Glasgow today, I wish I could be with you, but as someone who's been to two of these, my accumulated wisdom such as it is 1. Stay safe, some not very nice characters follow KJK around.

I’ve been writing about Spiked’s use of this trope of the Tories and others on the right battling against these ‘woke elites’. The state, sections of the press, the education system and the culture industry are all seen as the real powerbrokers who are ‘institutionally woke’.

Writing around 100 words for every day she was in office, Liz Truss has tonight issued a 4,000 word essay on why her premiership was thwarted by a ‘left-wing economic establishment’.

It feels pretty rubbish if you’re LGB or Q now. But the abuse at trans people is constant and sustained. We must stand by our trans friends 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

For all the people saying 'no one is trying to wipe you out' yes they f***ing are. There are plenty of people who want to remove trans people's rights and stop them transitioning. We cis people must step up. twitter.com/KatyMontgomeri…

I seriously don't think I can cope anymore. We've got politicians and journalists just openly airing their hatred for trans people now on a daily basis. You can't go anywhere online without seeing someone calling for our rights to be completely removed and for us to be eliminated
