That sounds very cool, I’m a lover of Hand bags! Though not as luxurious my brand of choice is Kipling 😆 River City, I’ve not seen that for years. I used to watch it regularly, wanted to do the set tour years ago as well.

I was the same the last time, phoned my dad to remind him. And then sat watching my phone because I was like I don’t want my head to be elsewhere and then end up shitting myself. This did not work 😂

It’s not even about media covering protests which they do on occasion but obviously a lot of that is down to the say so of those above them and what they want covered. I know they do I’ve seen them there, but it’s also only one issue in so much of this. It’s hard to hear but we need to show up.
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social) reply parent
I used to think the same, maybe the account is but not the org as I’ve seen posts from a few folks who are members. It often just reads like ‘Listen we can’t be too careful or something could happen to our crumbs’ And it’s like fuck crumbs, aim for the slice but reach for the loaf.

Oh I’m fine Andrew doll, nothing personally. Just sick of the hypocrisy that floats in the sea of hate that the world seems to be steeped in right now. 💕 Thanks tho, appreciate you for that.

I just need to feel like I’m doing something more in the pushback against all this. I just don’t want to be sitting one day thinking ‘how did we let it get this far’
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social) reply parent
We need to do more. A lot of our response to this isn’t grand. LGBT Labour for example a lot of their statements are worded in a don’t rock the boat way. No fucking rock that boat. You see at numbers for some protests vs a pride. Frequently often the numbers are vastly different. 2/2
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social) reply parent
The hate has always been there and it always will be to a degree, but there’s been a definite growth shift in it this decade. You can see it in the data on hate crime, you can see it in the data with how many articles are written weekly now vs a decade ago. You can see it in anti orgs set up1/2

Reaching out to a local LGBTQ+ charity to see how I can get more involved with my community when my health allows. I need to feel like I am doing more than I am! I try to use my voice as often as I can but I need to put more action alongside it. Hopefully I’ll hear something back soon.

Imagine if we fought for our rights with the same fire we bring to Pride. With the same fire that those who came before us did. We’d be unstoppable. A lot of those people would be so ashamed of us now. Some of us should be! So let’s show the fuck up! Please! 5/5
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social) reply parent
We’re too quiet. We’re not showing up. And if we actually fought for the community with half the energy we pour into the party side, maybe we wouldn’t be in this mess. We are handing these arseholes wins on a fucking silver platter. We are serving it up to them. Enough! 4/5
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social) reply parent
When the fuck is enough going to be enough? Bigots are out here organising, pushing, harassing, yelling, 24/7. I’m not saying we need to kill ourselves matching that level of obsession, but come on, we are to some degree letting it get worse and worse by not fighting back harder. 3/5
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social) reply parent
And let’s be honest eh? , a lot of people aren’t even there for the fight, just the party & all that comes with it. WE NEED TO BE FUCKING BETTER THAN THIS! We needed to be better than this 5 years ago. 2/5

Small 🧵 on showing up🏳️🌈🫶🏳️⚧️ Sorting Hat Sandras and TERFs spend every waking second on this shit. It’s their whole lives. Hate is literally all they’ve got. Meanwhile too many of us only show up in our thousands when it’s Pride season and for some that’s the only time they ever show up. 1/5
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social)
A man spends his life abusing trans women online, makes threats, gets arrested and Labour’s first instinct is to sympathise with him. Then they’ll wave rainbow flags at Pride, pretend they care about the community, pretend they want to advance our rights! & some believe them still! Spare me

This is what I do for Halloween. Tho unsure of placement now as we moved last year. So this was my 2023 s I’d absolutely love a garland for Christmas but it’s where to put it. We don’t have a side bit nor a fireplace. Maybe buy so extra and then if you’ve left over put them in a vase?

And it’s brazen. There was a time she would never dreamed of doing this. Even though every trans person is to be thought as of a potential threat she would never have been seen to say something like this. This just highlights she’s learned she’s untouchable.

Exactly this, it’s not ‘I don’t think that’s really a woman’ It’s telling people to cause physical harm to another. Notice how she’s not said this about any of the Palestine ac arrests

Graham Glincel Linehan shouldn’t be too upset at the days events. He will be able to take comfort in the fact that Sorting Hat Sandra leader Rowling has finally…..kind of but not really acknowledged his existence!

I haven’t heard anything about who the deputy is or what causes they support. Transphobes should never be in these kind of positions, I feel the same about Kate Forbes and the snp. There’s a difference here tho, Zack is supportive and members will decide on policy. Where the SNP just abandoned

This is where we’re at: instead of challenging the far right, leaders are pandering to it with flag-waving theatrics. Symbols over substance, chasing nationalism instead of tackling the causes of division.
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social)
Not to be pessimistic but my guess is this just shows us what the outcome of this case is likely to be. Allowing bigots to speak for bigots but not allowing anyone to counter as such is pretty much an announcement in itself. I hate it here, if only it were as simple as fucking off.
BearOfScots🎃🐾🏴 (@bearofscots.bsky.social)
Yes because that’s just what these bigots need to be told! Are people not fucking angry enough in this country! Aren’t they fed up of 24/7 hate, anger and blaming everyone without power for their problems! I know I am because I was years ago.
