My local police are the IOSM for thinking this is the work of neighbourhood children and not the remains of a ritual to summon the devil and Lucifer now walks among us.

A few years ago I remember her being like really politically active about various centre-left issues and then being really mad online about Jeremy Corbyn, but now her timeline is entirely transphobia and Harry Potter. Linehan was the same with becoming single issue obsessed. What is it about these people that turns them from having opinions about a variety of political issues to just focusing 100% of their energy on transphobia?

That subhead makes it sound like all rapes by people with penises will be recorded as women, which would be extremely weird. I assume the Times is just being terrible though.

I don't know if it's deliberate but it's cutting off the first sentence of the article which is "Police have been criticised for saying they will record rapes by offenders with male genitalia as being committed by a woman if the attacker “identifies as a female”."

Either way The Times is being terrible as always.

I'm fairly certain that there are influencial group of transphobes who snatch up people like Rowling and Linehan. Make them feel accepted and strongly encourage them that they are indeed on the right path. And keep supporting them throughout.

That makes sense. A lot of the people getting caught up in it are British libs who had their progressive credentials attacked when they started complaining about Corbyn so the validation from TERFs soothing their fragile egos could explain it

Sort of? If you take a Chinese class the teacher might give you a name that actually means something but like any official stuff I had where they translated my name into Chinese they just used the closest phonetic equivalents without much regard for whether I'd picked out a super special name.

Tennis is a weird one because it's pretty much the only sport where total take home including endorsements is higher for women. Women used to get less prize money for being lazy and only playing 3 sets but they get better sponsorship deals.

Yeah, Djokovic showed he was an idiot rear end in a top hat long before the whole not getting vaccinated saga by constantly crying about female tennis players getting equal pay

They have at least one trans woman, at least one gay man, and at least one nonbinary person on their roster, so I'd say they're already miles ahead of WCW when it comes to not being chuds.

I remember just last week reading an article about how they discovered evidence of cooking going back literally hundreds of thousands of years earlier than previously thought. Like before homo sapiens, I think. Something about thousands of fish teeth that were crystallised in a way that could only happen when exposed to a specific, controlled temperature for specific times (exactly what would happen with cooking.)

Yeah they discovered neanderthal cooking
