It’s my son’s birthday today, and obviously he is being spoiled rotten but at the back of my mind there is always the memory of giving birth, and how that fundamentally changed me as a person.

It’s so easy for women to dismiss the significance of this event on their own lives (especially as we are normally the ones making the *birthday magic* appear out of thin air)

This is why I so strongly reject the term ‘birthing person’. Pregnancy, labour, postpartum emotional and physical health and breastfeeding are so much more than that.

So is becoming a mother.

DOGE didn't make a dent in the deficit, but it did bring back screwworm and enable a historically large new Ebola outbreak, so it's not like they didn't achieve *anything*

Donald Trump had over 3,700 stock transactions since the war in Iran started, and he profited over 220 million dollars. Don't tell me how he "donates his presidential salary" ever again you stupid fucking MAGAs

As a physician, I’m sure you’re well aware that there’s a ton of variation and that the average person with Downs actually does have a good quality of life and a lifespan well into their 50s/60s?

Meaningful relationships? Enjoyment of hobbies? A sense of belonging in their families and communities? Of course you do! You’re an MD.

So, why exactly is it your position that these people shouldn’t be alive?

In Finland school meals are free for all children until the age of 16.

In Japan, only qualified nutritionists are allowed to prepare and serve school meals.

Meanwhile in the UK, we’re arguing about whether kids deserve to be fed at all.

FREE school meals for all children!

When money comes into my bank account for any work I've done for someone, HMRC calls this 'Income'. I would like to call it a gift, but I can't.

If Fa Rage gets £5m for working on Brexit projects, that is also income. It should be liable to 40% tax. But, is it?

[Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs) @agraybee]

From 1966 to 2025 we dropped sterile flies over South America that ate screwworm and thus prevented them from spreading, but the le epic efficient cracked coders at DOGE thought this was a silly waste of the ~0 dollars it cost us.

She was 14 = “old enough to consent.”
He was 22 = “too young for prison.”

[Ms Terfy Teacher @TerfSchool]

"one male patient died postoperatively after vaginoplasty at age 18. The cause of death was necrotizing fasciitis, a complication of intestinal vaginoplasty. Because of sequential exposure to PBs and oestrogen that had been initiated around Tanner Stage 2, the patient’s genitals were too small for the standard penile inversion, so a piece of intestine was used to construct the neovaginal canal (a more complex procedure). An aggressive infection ensued, and the patient died. de Vries et al. (Citation2014) did not report this death as a result or adverse event, instead briefly mentioning it in the paper’s ‘Methods’ section. They did not explain that this death was directly attributable to the penoscrotal hypoplasia caused by PB/oestrogen exposure. Consequently, the mortality associated with the Dutch Protocol approach has never been identified as a harm by systematic reviews."

Angela Rayner - £40k underpaid stamp duty - repaid. Lost jobs in Cabinet and Dep. PM.

Peter Murrell - £400k theft from SNP - going to prison

Huge coverage of both

Nigel Farage - £5m undeclared bung (possibly more) - goes to ground for a month.

Media coverage? You judge.

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Nigel Farage hasn't bothered to vote in Parliament for the last 11 weeks.

During that time he will have collected about £50,000 in wages and expenses.

But he will tell you Disabled People and immigrants are the problem.

No, it's rich lazy parasites like him.

Hitler no empezó con campos.
Empezó con:
• Hacer Alemania grande de nuevo
• Prohibir libros
• Atacando a la prensa
• Culpando a los inmigrantes
• Creando enemigos de los vecinos
• Desfinanciando las artes
• Avivando el miedo a los
extranjeros
• Demonizando a los educadores

¿Suena familiar?

[Albie @MyDugAlbie]

Sorry for the language but this is fucking disgusting.

Glasgow & Clyde, Lanarkshire, STAR Ayrshire and Western Isles which are 4 of Scotland’s biggest rape crisis centres felt the need to split from Rape Crisis Scotland.

Why?

Because they were sick of being gagged and forced to accept trans ideology over biological reality and the needs of female survivors.

What was the commonsense truth they wanted to speak?

Rape and sexual violence is overwhelmingly male violence against women and girls.

They wanted proper single-sex spaces for female survivors.

They wanted to scream that women’s rights are being eroded and the government is doing nothing while rapes soar by 26% since 2021.

But they couldn’t.

Because Rape Crisis Scotland is too busy protecting its precious government funding and pushing ideology over the safety of women and girls. It also acts as a policy advisor to the very people who fund it.
Has it really become a system where government silences those who disagree?

I applaud these four centres who support Scotland’s women and deliver help to rape survivors, but why did they need to break free just to do their fucking job?

So, when even the organisations protecting raped women feel they have to escape the system to speak the truth, we know Holyrood isn’t a parliament anymore.

It’s a cult.

This is the Corruption of Democracy in Scotland.

There would be breaking news reports every 15 mins had it been Zack Polanski or Keir Starmer.

[Graham Linehan @Glinner]

Of course women don’t confront men in female-only spaces. The man’s presence is the confrontation. Most women are sensible enough not to pick a fight with a man who has just demonstrated his contempt for their boundaries.
