This is beyond parody now.
I’d love to hear an actual scientists take on what this even means other than “there are some aspects of science we don’t like so we are going to ignore those bits.”
NEW: Conservatives are safeguarding scientific research from the denial of biology and the steady creep of political correctness.
@michelledonelan announces plans to depoliticise science at #CPC23
I’ve seen some truly appalling anti trans posts on here recently. It’s always been a bit of a cesspit but lately it is abhorrent. I’m sorry it is like this, know you have people in your corner 💜🏳️⚧️
Trans lives matter. Biology is not binary, and anyone who tries to tell you otherwise is neither a scientist nor a healthcare provider.
I am sending love out to whoever needs it today. Some choose to enter a race to see who can be the meanest.
The rest of us choose love 💗🏳️⚧️
A lot of the responses I’ve seen from people are defending it as a ‘different time.’ I’d argue that a) makes it no better and b) it was not really that long ago in the grand scheme of things.
Thank god things have changed.
I remember watching a lot of the clips when I was in my late teens/early 20s. I remember not being shocked by it. I remember just thinking that was how some men spoke to and about women and it was just something that I had to accept. I’m sad that I was ever not horrified by it.
A reminder that Daniel Sloss had a bit about sexual assault in one of his stand ups and how he wished he’d done something to stop his friend being raped. It’s powerful to see him come forward and stick to his word. #Dispatches
The great UK @Snyders_Hanover jalapeño pretzel shortage continues. When do we get these again? There are some similar ones from other brands but not a patch on yours.
@Paularusha Pretty normal seeing £35 a t, £45 for long sleeve and £60-80 for a hoodie.
In the main I think people would rather pay a bit more and not have the prints on rubbish quality blanks.
Our gardener has just been asked to stop walking around in our garden because he is, and I quote,
"Spoiling the shot" This from a woman who is filming a video segment where she is standing at my gates claiming she is holidaying at her "summer house"
My house !!!
@ycsm1n I’ll never forget the time many moons ago when a customer forgot the phonetic for B and said “B is for…..bum” then just carried on like it wasn’t hilarious.
I enjoy #yourhomemadeperfect but there are 2 things that bother me:
1. They must film the ‘reveal’ twice, once with VR headsets to get the actual reaction, and then once against a green screen where they have to replicate the reaction.
2. Budgets mean nothing to the architects.
I'm at BBC HQ in London where there is a statue of George Orwell and his words
"If Liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."
Watch the vid 🙏🏼
