TinTower posted:So former boxing promoter Frank Maloney has come out as trans and gave an interview how her gender dysphoria pushed her, at points, to the brink of suicide. You'd think that the press would be sympathetic, right? At least the reaction from the boxing world (residual misgendering aside) seems to have been pretty positive? That headline's the worst response I've seen so far. A Sloth posted:Are you triggered by puns or something?

Zephro posted:Random question: is it still possible to buy a SIM/mobile in the UK without having to fill out a form saying who you are and where you live? I was reading up on the 7/7 bombings and they used PAYG phones to avoid leaving a trace. I know this is hard/impossible to do in lots of other countries these days, but is Britain one of them? It's oddly hard to find out by Googling (or else my Google-fu is bad). quote:edit: apparently I have plat despite having never paid a single red cent for this account

goddamnedtwisto posted:The guy who does them used to be a Big Issue seller and the cartoon was simply random stuff he'd seen while out on the streets. Big Issue dropping his strip pretty much marked the point it stopped being an interesting source of alternative opinion and started being a dull Time Out knockoff. Maaan stop being wrong. It's pretty decent and he's a cool dude (I preordered his book which he had a ton of trouble getting printed, and we commiserated over Twitter). It's also one of the few consistently left wing perspectives. The dense text in Private Eye means I tend to read it in spurts rather than solidly through in one sitting, but that's no bad thing for something that's a periodical rather than a daily newspaper.

goddamnedtwisto posted:Erm, I wasn't criticising him or his strip at all - I loved it in the Big Issue and it disappearing from there pretty much marked the point I stopped actively seeking it out (I still buy it out of guilt occasionally). Oooh right okay, sorry.
