i think a lot of older folks on twitter have had their buttons pushed. like ms rowling. are you really sure that only women are purebloods, ms rowling? forgive my ignorance, but i thought the dementors were a weak allegory for nazis, rather than their victims.
i note that some folks have been referencing mr graham linehan. they may perhaps not know that mr linehan has been obsessively stalking trans people for a number of years, to the extent that he gave up his own relationships with women, and his friends, and his career. it might also be worth noting that the internet monitors and logs all this stuff to the nth degree, across multiple redundant sources. here's one, have a read: https://www.cookdandbombd.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=81630.0
does it help if i point out that in fact you are the children here, and we are the adults? and that we're ******* ourselves laughing at you?
probably not. but we really do love you, honest.
just a reminder that despite considerable stranger danger online, the majority of child sexual abuse is committed by young white guys.
beyond that, largely within families and by trusted groups. your kid is very much more likely to be abused by that nice religious authority figure than by some satanist weirdo.
if we're going to have biological essentialism, let's properly go for it. your atoms were a lot of other people before you, you know.
with any luck they will be lots of other people after you, if we somehow manage to pull out of this kamikaze dive.
i spent part of last week identifying as calcium. i am actually about 2% calcium - so are you.
so i suggest this actually makes quite a lot more sense than whatever abstract bull**** is fashionable right now.
i note that the chief of the police watchdog here was arrested for child rape.
while this is shocking and upsetting, it reassures me greatly that this country still values the rule of law, and that no-one is ever above it.
not even the bloody masons. and certainly not opus ******* dei.
(there are plenty of real conspiracies, folks, just not the ones they sell you to distract from their crimes.)
i am confident that lord rothermere will take his lumps like a man. (is he a man? has anyone checked?)
i am sick to the rear molars of dictation from monaco. tbh i'm not sure what we'd lose if monaco didn't exist.
i think any oligarch who wants to leave the country and take their money with them would be doing us a big favour, frankly.
we don't want them. we want people invested in the future of this country, not robber barons extracting our wealth to offshore tax havens.
that's actual patriotism, btw. you may not recognise it, few people remember it these days.
so- no capital controls. don't let the door hit you on the way out.
numbers on screens will not butter any marmalade sandwiches: good riddance.
