Pathetic little man
If you're taking a party to court, I'm really not sure it's the party for you
🚨 NEW: The Cabinet tried to sing “Happy Birthday” to Keir Starmer this morning, but he told them to stop [@JasonGroves1]
“Unless the witness possesses any ginuwin name of conzequence, this session is naucon cludé”
Hey quick question: in the trial scene from GOBLET OF FIRE, why does Roger Lloyd-Pack talk like that. Did he just always sound like that and I missed it
If you think about it, the fact that I as an outsider know this is about baseball but can’t extract any other information from it makes it, literally, inside baseball
"A militia loyal to the DC regime has been dispatched to a base in the opposition-held territory of Illinois ahead of a planned invasion of that territory's urban center, Chicago. Regime forces are targeting celebrations of a rival ethnic group that is the subject to an ongoing expulsion campaign."
Of course, at 5'1'', Carrie Fisher was in no position to talk
Temuera Morrison is 5'7''. Mark Hamill is 5'9''. Luke is actually a little tall for a stormtrooper
I think Obi-Wan is the only combatant we ever see manage to throw Vader around like a ragdoll. Twice, even!
[OBI-WAN KENOBI] I like that Vader is literally an immovable object and, as washed as Obi-Wan might be by the time of this show, he gets a single very effective demonstration of his power: he moves him
my genetics class once again falls on both Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, and if I plan to take those days off (which obvs i do), i have to provide "equivalent instructional time" still. ditto for Passover in the spring semester. meanwhile we're not even *allowed* on campus on Christmas.
As an Australian I have no alternative but to regard this from Trump as a threat lol
What a groundbreaking perspective. No one has thought of that before. We could call it something like “air superiority”. Just spitballing here.
Ace Combat: Loveseat Horizon
Hate this, thanks
The year is 2027. The cyber vance drone wars have swept the american continent. Only mexico's skyforce stands against him. Skies are now battlefields
🎶 Who but we may tame the sky
This, of course, was the real purpose for deepfakes and GenAI: not to create convincing false images but to allow dismissal of true images.
HEGSETH: Whoever controls the skies will control the future of warfare MY LATE GRANDFATHER, DROPPING BOMBS ON LOCALS DURING THE MALAYAN EMERGENCY: woohoo! yeah! right on!
Hegseth controversially suggesting that air support is integral to the modern battlespace. Hm. Interesting. Much to think about. Unfortunately I doubt this young man's insights will bear fruit before the present war comes to an end. My name is General Sir John Monash by the way
I got the feeling US spec ops in South America were factoring in but that they thought that that meant there would be de facto no problem with like FBI agents walking out of the local consulate and coming to have a little chat to him
They seem to be being serious in this case
Yeah, of course you'll be live again shortly, that's how the great wheel of samsara works, dipshit
I'm sorry. I realise that we would all like to think that the US, either the greatest or the most Satanic but definitely the most exceptional country in the world and don't any of you dare say otherwise, can exercise extraterritorial jurisdiction. However, in most places, it can't
BadEmpanada fedposted and people think he's going to get visited by the feds. Other people pointed out that he lives in South America and yet more people were like "well, that doesn't necessarily mean he won't get a visit". Let me be clear: yes it does
His trans daughter is on another magazine cover today
hey mike johnson....where are the epstein files?? you didn't think WE'D ALL forget you simpleton mother fucker?
we’re going to need to tear this country out at the root and replant the seeds so i would like to be an ultra and say we should protect children’s rights as people in the new society. the parents’ rights movement has always been fascistic and fundamentally anti-queer
www.unpopularfront.news/p/confession... The source of the "Trump is dead" meme, contemplating how easy it is to speak thoughtless bullshit into existence
Unfortunately the asymmetrical chevron (which is the orthodox STAR TREK version) is likely taken from the NACA or early NASA seal so it was the government's to begin with
fuck. we're going to invade venezuela so hard dude
These people can't govern themselves
The right being allowed to openly discuss this shit without penalty or sanction should tell you everything you need to know about how serious they are. There's zero reason to "understand" or meet with this. You either are opposed to these bigoted freaks or you're not my ally. It's a binary choice.
Jeff Younger was accused of being abusive towards two step daughters in official court documents and i feel like this should at least be mentioned when quoting him in the newspaper.
this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like
Also damn this Tweet really is evergreen
(every time some dismaying event requiring a large number of participants takes place) This proves Orson Welles right and me wrong
censorship serves some kind of abstruse shareholder-value purpose but the pitch for it is always "rich people seething forever that anyone is allowed not to love them"
nice that Graham finally has a solid answer for my “can you define the word ‘chair’?” question: it’s the thing you sit on with your head bowed as you mumble “yes, mr policeman, I promise not to go on Twitter anymore, sir”
if people yell at you for advocating "moderation" on trans rights on Bluesky but not on Twitter the reason for that might be because Elon Musk, the guy who runs and owns Twitter, explicitly censored trans people's accounts and posts.
that’s my ‘Zarah will be pushing back against this internally’ theory in the mud then
It's Your Party, let it die if it wants to
They're done. They had four years, then several weeks, and all the patience and goodwill in the world, and they've squandered it all. I'm off to defend migrants, protect my trans siblings and save newts. 🐉
i guess the trans supportive statements were just theater from sultana and corbyn then.
mea culpa, i did actually think she'd uh. have a bit more forethought than this
I knew this thing was gonna fill up with terfs, and nothing would get done about it.
zarah sultana's 'i care about the trans community trans rights are important' stuff is completely fucking hollow & should be seen as such
It may be Your Party; as a trans person, it will never be mine. They’re making that quite clear from the outset.
Wait so the UK now has an entire party for people who feel Labour, Tories, and Reform aren't transphobic *enough*
RIP Your Party. We barely knew you, but you excited us like nothing else had in a long time but thanks to your bigotry you'll be forever remembered as a disappointment.
My buddies in England who were hoping for this to be Something: It's deid. Stone deid. Nae pulse or nothing.
left coalition politics is 100% dead in the UK as every single political organisation has associations with terfs
Glad that loads of people have spent weeks screaming at us that this wouldn’t happen. Time well spent
we need to just vote green, corbyn & co clearly don't want our votes. i think it was always inevitable in this stage of fascism that our 'allies' would abandon us under the guise of garnering electability. and it keeps on happening, again and again and again...
Fuck you Zarah, I actually believed in you
This is what I was afraid of. This is what there were rumours about. This is what many told me was bollocks made up by saboteurs. The Serwotkas should be nowhere near this project.
Your Party wanting to be member led but having its secretary blatantly espouse transphobia has opened the door for this kind of thing. the article this guy wrote is fucking despicable, and anyone who wants the party to be better will need to be ruthless in demanding trans rights.
yeah these people are a waste of time. Morning Star transphobic freaks.
YP is really shaping up to be a 'left transphobe' party packed with insincere guff about "kindness", "dignity & respect" & all that vacuous bullshit while being fine w/every transphobic policy currently being inflicted on us. Transphobes are already in key positions before the party has got going.
It's incredible that everything about this party somehow keeps getting worse and it doesn't even really exist yet.
That's too bad. You were so close UK, so close.
Your Party hasn't even got a name yet and it's already setting itself up for being torn apart by infighting on trans rights as a leader who claims to be supportive of trans rights welcomes in anti-trans campaigners. Meanwhile GPEW unifies behind a progressive vision for the left.
bsky.app/profile/spac... No, its not astroturfed Your Party is allowing itself to be astroTERFed and they're letting it happen The party's already captured by them
We said Your Party would be a crock of shit, and so it was
Cis people think they can argue with us partly because they make the mistake of assuming our likelihood of being wrong is comparable to theirs. In reality, when it comes to trans issues, trans people's factual predictions are right pretty much 100% of the time
Utterly predictable, and also fucking hilarious a mere THREE DAYS after that bullshit "I’ve always stood with the trans community, and I always will." -post that everyone immediately clocked as hollow platitudes that will never be backed up by anything, we fucking called it, GG lads well played.
bsky.app/profile/spac... No I'm not giving them any more time They're not even a party yet and they're already captured by the TERFs
Do you reckon Newsom gave Corbyn the number for his PR firm because this is all feeling very familiar
Fucking hell @zarahsultana.bsky.social @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social you’re struggling to do anything right aren’t ya? Unless of course you’re aware of all this and don’t really care? I’m really struggling to care or be exited about your party this is like the second time in a week.
Your Party really was DoA wasnt it?
Your Party setting a new world record for the Milkshake Duck any% speedrun
But what is the point of YP now? I think it’s doomed by its reliance on socially conservative MPs anyway. The Greens now have every advantage in attracting the left
I wonder if Zach Polanski’s win has just killed Your Party
LMAO fuck Jeremy Corbyn you've been a piece of shit all along
@zarahsultana.bsky.social you nazi snake. goodbye forever. nobody is voting for this, they’ll just vote Labour if they want this. Fucking moron
we wanted so badly to support you, Zarah! We wanted you to win! Why are you people fucking like this? You ruin yourselves.
thank god @zackpolanski.bsky.social won so transgender people in the UK have ONE FUCKING POLITICAL PARTY that won’t try to kill us all. Fuck @zarahsultana.bsky.social and fuck @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social you are all nazi losers
Damn. It was pretty clear the party was fucked but I was hoping Zarah herself might turn out to have a spine. No such luck
"what so you think it's okay to direct gender questioning individuals towards gray market hormones?"
Centrist pundits are repeating the phrase "80/20 issues that Democrats are on the wrong side of" or very close variations thereof with such consistency that at this point I kind of have to assume it's a centrally distributed talking point
I don't feel like I have terrible side effects from HRT? I have chronic changes in my body that have come on since HRT, but I very rarely have acute changes from HRT. The closest I've had was massively increased intracranial pressure after stopping prog briefly by mistake. Restarting fixed it
Idk Labourlist I think there’s something not very credible about a magic money black hole that keeps increasing every time Rachel Reeves wants to hurt working class people a little bit more and which vanishes as a problem whenever a tech lord wants a contract
I have had a GP recommend CoQ10 to me before so I'll give that a go, thanks
That feels like it is genuinely, circumstantially, the case. Not like, I have a high-performance brain or anything, but that for some reason the pressure is artifically being decreased between my heart and my brain, so my heart has to go insane to keep my brain at normal
bsky.app/profile/eliz... it’s not just Adnan as well…
Occasionally you'll see Australian cookers cite their First Amendment rights. We don't have a First Amendment. In fact, there's no codified general right to free speech in Australian law. We have case law establishing an implied freedom of political communication. That's it
Collaboration
this is the ur- falsehood of our political era and everything from "schools shouldn't have locked down during covid" to "trans women in sports is a national crisis" are downstream of it and the through line of all of them is national media's willfull ignorance and complicity
at no point did we defund the police. it's important when we talk about defunding the police to note it never actually happened. would it work? we don't know! but merely phrasing the idea succinctly incited a reactionary backlash that put fascists in charge of all 3 branches of government. curious!
The announcement could truly be anything from transgender assassins attacked me in the Oval Office with their hormone powers, execute Order 66 to I shot the best round of golf in my life, all holes in one, at the beautiful Trump Oaks Plantation Clubhouse & Spa
Since I've been going "aaaa HRT's destroying my health" lately, to be clear, my blood pressure has always been dangerously high and so was my dad's
One of my major problems is that my blood pressure is dangerously high but any attempt to remediate it gives me severe and disabling brain fog. I wish I knew what to do about that!
Even if he has an absolutely perfect tenure I would have to assume that he's going to be white anted and illegally harassed out of existence
lmfao The Flying Bats FC won the North West Sydney Women's Premier League again and REDUXX and OUTKICK are steaming mad about it. Good. They can continue to be
(I'm messing with you all, well done GPEW)
No no you don't get it. He's an ally *because* he can hypnotise my tits bigger. They'll finally be proportionate to my frame
Most of us have had to realise that shutting up is also an option.
