[Bad Writing Takes 🖊️🏳️‍🌈 @BadWritingTakes]

JK Rowling, who often tries to defend her abusive behaviour and bigotry as being about protecting girls, has described the plot of Lolita - where a man kidnaps, grooms, and rapes a 12yo girl - as a "tragic love story"

Almost as literarily ignorant as it is morally repulsive.

Cass Review contains 'serious flaws’. Amazing that a British paper is FINALLY reporting this, despite VolderMaud . Who do you want to play you in the ⁦@ITV⁩ drama, ⁦⁦@wesstreeting⁩ ? #CassKillsKids #PostOffice2 #Saville #ContaminatedBlood https://t.co/y6No3VC6VA

[The National @ScotNational]

John Swinney has responded after scientific analysis from a top US university concluded that the Cass Review 'obscures key findings, misrepresents its own data, and is rife with misapplications of the scientific method'

Colorado reports the 4th human infection with the #birdflu virus circulating in cows. Farmworker. Symptoms like cases 1 & 2 — conjunctivitis. At this point it's clearly an #H5 infection; @CDC will be testing to see if there is enough virus to confirm the N type. Not surprising.

Poor housing is one of the key drivers of the over-representation of First Nations children in care along with poverty, mental health and addictions

[Helen Branswell 🇨🇦 @HelenBranswell]

Is it too late to drive #H5N1 #birdflu out of cows? Some experts fear the answer is yes, @sciencecohen reports. https://t.co/FfbN5eoSac

...97% of gender-affirming surgeries involving minors are performed on cisgender males, 3% on trans & gender-diverse minors. yet Biden admin is banning such surgeries *only for TGD minors* – that is an anti-trans & non-scientifically supported policy...

I think THIS is why Keir Starmer is going hard on transphobic rhetoric atm

The ‘undecided’ voters are predominantly (55%) right-wing, middle-aged women - a core demographic of ‘gender critical’ transphobes!

I reckon he thinks trans-hostile language will woo them! 😖

So, Julie Bindel FINALLY admits that she’s anti-trans! 😳

When someone tells you who they are… BELIEVE THEM!!!

[Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com on Bsky @ErinInTheMorn]

A bipartisan bill is moving through congress known as the “Kids Online Safety Act.” It has support of Biden and Democrats.

But advocates fear it could target trans content online.

Now, a bill sponsor confirms that it will.
