@Scotcensus2022 I'd love a breakdown of the other sexual orientations (at least the larger groups like asexual, queer, pan) - will this be released at some point?
@NAnthropocene @laurenmechling @guardian Anyway my mum drove all the way from Germany to France with me so I could go see a gig when I was a teenager. I had the time of my life, she had a lovely time in the hotel pool, and just last week we were talking about how nice that was.
@NAnthropocene @laurenmechling @guardian Flying to a different continent to see a gig is fucked up sure but this wouldn't be happening if it wasn't cheaper to *fly across the Atlantic* than to buy a ticket to a local gig. Fixing that seems more productive and more likely to stop people who dgaf at all doing it, too.
Just now, @ranjithoskote was driven to resign from his distinguished role at #Documenta, for reasons involving the word #antisemitism. The real story is ... just so perverse and bizarre, and it's worth going over. A thread.
@AliceRo51125216@alicemydaughter That's like saying a diabetic person's early death is caused by their diabetes, not the lack of access to insulin. Sure you can split those hairs but there was a really obvious, well tested solution to the health emergency that the person in question was denied.
@AliceRo51125216@alicemydaughter Well we know your preferred approach of denying treatment definitely did not improve her mental health outcomes and in fact led to suicide. It seems trying the alternative would have been worthwhile.
