JK Rowling has used her billionaire legal team to silence a Jewish woman for telling the truth about her contempt for trans victims of the Holocaust.

Scotland’s network of “freedom of speech” organisations, as per usual, have nothing to say about the use of wealth to gag critics of the wealthy.

However fast they race to condemn the LGBT+ community for saying the names of those who harm us. Statements at the ready to insist that transphobes no one wants to work with anymore must be given every possible opportunity to gain from their bigotry.

But it's not the billionaires who are being silenced, as our media breathlessly echo their every hateful proclamation.

It's journalists and activists forced to publicly humiliate themselves under the weight and the threat of billionaire legal teams or be driven into destitution.

We deserve better. Freedom of speech needs to mean something

fandom tumblr was another casualty of streaming services. we used to be on here posting about the episodes that were coming out weekly and posting gifs and writing insane shit about the tv shows we liked. now a new season of a show will drop and we’ll talk about it for a week. two weeks tops. and then that show will leave collectively conscious for 1+ year till the next season drops. there’s a reason succession sundays was a blast on here

we used to have real television

Tony Hawk has probably saved so many kids' lives just by always wearing helmet. If you skated or even rode a bike as a kid in the 90s or 00s there's a good chance you heard the exchange "Helmets are so lame!" "No they're not, Tony Hawk wears one!" at some point. He was maybe the coolest person that a kid in 2002 could think of. And he used this position to make sure every kid that wore a helmet had a good comeback to the teasing. Legend behavior tbh

#and he didn’t just wear a helmet #but elbow and knee pads too! #my dude was fully kitted out with safety gear #I’ll never forget the commercial/tv spot he did on nickelodeon where he said to practice skateboarding on grass first #because you fall over a lot when you’re just starting and grass is more forgiving than pavement #and the wheels don’t move as much so you’re more stable #I love tony hawk (man I can identify without his skateboard)

Tumblr is really interesting because you can say something like thursday is duck with a top hat day, and half the website will reblog it

also what is with people tossing out support for nonbinary people when the nonbinary person is a celebrity. as soon as demi lovato changed their pronouns from they/them to they/she everyone, including supposed allies of the community, IMMEDIATELY dropped the “they” part of “they/she” and started referring to them as a woman again. then when “unholy” by sam smith and kim petras won a grammy people talked about how kim petras (just her) made trans history by being the first trans person to win a grammy. and yes this is something to be celebrated, but is sam smith not also trans by virtue of being nonbinary? did they not also make history? or do you not see them as nonbinary because they’re amab and not feminine enough to cross the man threshold for you? and yes nonbinary celebrities are not going to see you referring to them as if they were cis but your trans acquaintances sure as fuck are

not to sound like a medieval peasant or a catholic but i resent anti-carb propaganda so much like bread will never be evil it is holy it is divine it is one of life’s most simple yet decadent pleasures. love is stored in the bread
