@Mainlesleyxd @Bigmove4me @JudahEx @KemiBadenoch You are mistaken

@Bigmove4me @JudahEx @KemiBadenoch Si no mal recuerdo, fue comprada al igual que alaska

The Falklands are British. Full stop. Not by accident. Not by ambiguity. We fought for them when it mattered most and paid the price. And because the islanders have chosen it, clearly and repeatedly. There is no debate on this.

@AlexPrideMLM @JoshuaK48611332 @HelloPixelframe Trans men need to up their game! Start winning in men’s sports, start taking creepy bathroom selfies, start committing sexual offences…

@JoshuaK48611332 @HelloPixelframe Tbh they do get more hate

Guys, please nothing inappropriate with this one, the Peppa Pig font & logo generator is live now! pixelframe.design/peppa-pig-font…

@HumanBe87 @rickygervais @aflickerofdoubt @CosmicSkeptic Only one god is powerful enough to break the rules of English grammar!

@rickygervais @aflickerofdoubt @CosmicSkeptic With all due respect Ricky, you should start with apprising yourself of the difference between gods and God. They are ontologically different things. There can be thousands of gods, but only one God Until you understand the difference, you cannot coherently discuss this

I’m getting a lot of hate for this reel. What do you think? (P.S.: if you say “but we have evidence for dads I believe you have missed the point.)

@watchsquare_one @Kavio100 @neutralize_18 @PopBase You think people have to go through a clinic to get sperm? Any male with functioning genitals can be a sperm donor

@Kavio100 @neutralize_18 @PopBase he is he has vitiligo, a hereditary disease MJ also had sperm donors cannot have autoimmune diseases so his father was not a sperm donor MJ is named on the birth certificate as the father abcnews.com/Health/Wellnes…

@m_fox85 @fesshole On her part

@fesshole And she probably felt friendzoned by you.. Wow massive fumble

Went on a trip alone with a longtime friend I was in love with. Rental place she got had only one bed. Refused her repeated offer to share with her and slept on the uncomfy couch to be a "gentleman". Years later, I realised and about had a stroke.

@WingsScotland @BrawnJourno Brains vs Brawn

@BrawnJourno Nobody's trying to stop them running. They just want their times recorded in the correct category. Are you stupid?

As a weekly parkrunner, I could not careless about a trans person running with me. It is not a competitive event, it is a way of getting people out every Saturday morning to be active in an inclusive environment. This is just bonkers.

@radicaliws @SaulStaniforth @JamesEFoster This "pretty" little thing worked for Margaret Hodge's husband Henry. Her name is Victoria Starmer @TRobinsonNewEra

Margaret Hodge, who was given a peerage by Keir Starmer, says there's nothing wrong with cronyism. Hodge is currently the governments official anti corruption champion.

@orsonscottcard How appropriate, you fight like a cow

You don't need advice from editors on rejected manuscripts.  My short story “Ender's Game” was rejected by Ben Bova at Analog back when that was the top market for a sci-fi story. Ben gave me feedback. He thought the title should be “Professional Soldier” and he said to “cut it in half.” But I knew he was wrong on both points and submitted it to Jim Baen at Galaxy. He sat on it for a year, and responded to my query with a rejection. There was some kind of explanation, but I don't remember what it was. I concluded at the time that Baen's comments showed that he had barely glanced at the story. So … I got feedback both times, but it was not helpful. I looked at Ben's rejection again. What was it about the story that made him think it should, let alone COULD, be cut in half? Apparently it FELT long. What made it feel long? Now, post-Harry Potter, I would call it the quidditch problem. I had too many battles in which the details became tedious. So I cut two battles entirely, merely reporting the outcomes, and shortened another. In retyping the whole manuscript (pre-word-processor, that was the only way to get a clean manuscript), I added new point-of-view material to the point that I had cut only one page in length. So much for “in half.” But I already knew that my manuscripts did not need cutting — if it wasn't needed, it wouldn't be there in the first place. Even the battles were still there, but instead of showing them, I merely told what happened (so much for the usually asinine advice “show don't tell”), which kept the pace going. Those changes made, I sent it to Ben again. I did not remind him of what he had advised me to do. I merely told him I liked my title, and said, “I have addressed your other concerns,” which was true. I figured he wouldn't remember what his exact words had been. My answer was a check. That revised story was the basis for my winning the Campbell Award for best new writer. Did Ben's feedback help? Yes — but his specific advice was not right, and I knew it. On my next two submissions, Ben hated my endings, and I revised as suggested. The fourth submission he rejected outright, and the fifth, and I thought, Am I a one-story writer? I went back to Ender's Game and tried to analyze why it worked. Then, deliberately imitating myself, I wrote “Mikal's Songbird.” Ben bought it, and it received favorable mentions. I was afraid then that I had consigned myself to writing stories about children in jeopardy. But in fact I was writing character stories rather than idea stories. And THAT was how I built a career, not by self-imitation, and not by following editorial suggestions. I did get wise counsel from David Hartwell on my novel Wyrms, but that was on a book that was already under contract, and it was story feedback, not style. I got wise counsel from Beth Meacham, too, on various books over the years — but again, only on books that were under contract. I also received appallingly stupid advice from the editor of my novel Saints, which temporarily destroyed the book's marketability; after that, I was allowed to go back to my original structure and save the book — now it's one of my best. Editors don't know more than you about your story. They especially don't know why they decide to accept or reject stories. YOU have to know what your story needs to be, and take only advice that you believe in. Your best counselor on a story nobody bought is TIME. Let some time pass and then reread the story. Don't even think about why it Didn't Work. Instead, think about what DOES work, and then write it again, a complete rewrite, keeping nothing from the previous draft. Find the right protagonist and begin at the beginning — the point where the protagonist first gets involved with the events of the story. Be inventive — the failed first draft no longer exists, so you're not bound by any of your earlier decisions. THAT is how you resurrect a good idea you did not succeed with on your first try.

@swkhoo @1878smigger @Ellyinthemiddle @LeeHarris Fuck politeness, the guy’s a cunt

@1878smigger @Ellyinthemiddle @LeeHarris It’s more about etiquette and order. You might think he’s a liar and with good reason, but calling him as such is not permitted, one has to say words to that effect like “I don’t find his testimony credible” - the polite way of saying someone is a liar

🚨ABSOLUTE SCENES IN PARLIAMENT!! Far-left Independent MP Zarah Sultana says Keir Starmer is "gaslighting the nation" and a "BARE FACED LIAR". She is ordered to leave and she REFUSES, so is *immediately* suspended from the house. Lindsay Hoyle LOSES IT! 👀

@HarryBrenn0k @FXMC1957 Oh, that’s what they meant by Comic No2 shock, I thought he’d died on the toilet

@FXMC1957 What was also tragic about Benny’s death is that it happened the day after Frankie Howard died. It just seemed a whole generation of comedians was disappearing at once.

20 April 1992. Benny Hill (aged 68) was found dead at his London home. He had died on 18 April. His comedy shows on BBC then ITV were very popular from 1955 to 1989. Hill described his comedy style as “seaside post card humour”.

@Sjacobs2020 @JohnCleese I care about somebody’s gender about as much as I care what football team they support.

@JohnCleese Nobody is claiming that you can change your biological sex chromosomes. Nobody is claiming that you can recreate testes or a uterus. The claim revolves around the social construct of gender. This is a straw man argument. Do better.

Remember, this man is only a professor Just because the knows a lot about biology, and his opponents don't, that is no reason to believe him if you are sure he is wrong

@UKDancerDionne @NotFarLeftAtAll Attempted murder, not murder

@NotFarLeftAtAll No police information saying there was a death earlier today …..She’s seriously injured & is in critical condition but I’m sure police & press would announce a fatality…. Only X seen this information & can’t seem to see who sourced this legality . As police would have I’m sure

Black Influencer RielleUK has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. She smashed her car into three pedestrians including her fellow influencer. She’ll be let off

@Jtango21 @WhiteSoleill @jessasstrophe @Abouterf197543

@WhiteSoleill @jessasstrophe @Abouterf197543 Alright, now do a graphic of all the times non-trans people have done the same thing. Might need to make a few, dont think you could fit it all on one.

This happened at Colchester train station. The male member of staff can’t tell the sex of other humans!

@KingOfHits @Mike_Batt He was 18, too old for you

@Mike_Batt You'd have been welcome at one of my sessions Batt and I was the top producer in the world around then (actually a couple of years later - it was me vs Mickie Most in the UK). Jx

Hee hee. Happy days. 🙂🎶

@flippingdiscs @Mike_Batt Nominative determinists knew

@Mike_Batt Wow great letter ! 1967 i was only aged 7 years old & who knew years later i be playing your music on dj mobile disco decks & hospital & now on local community station how tech & music has changed our lives with now so many radio stations, thank you for being you 🎶🎸👍

@NMSResources @JoltVisceral @anon_opin

@JoltVisceral @anon_opin crime statistics show that while crime has consistantly gone down over the last 40 years, it's white males, followed closely by white females, doing most of the crime, especially violent crime. Violent crime committed by females is the only crime stat rising (reported more now).

Men should have curfews so that it's safe for women to go out at night.

@BM89456500 @anon_opin Should men report any woman who requests it?

Put this in grok. I am (username on x) assess me and then name what film character i would be? I got John McClane What did you get?

@wokeandwoofing Trans Klingons are one of the deadliest forces in the galaxy, a stray dingleberry can end up making a neovagina look like the aftermath of the Khitomer Massacre

The writer of 'Project Hail Mary' offered his services for the new 'Star Trek' but they turned him down. Which is for the best, since he probably would of gone down the bigoted route of making it entertaining, rather than focusing on the much needed inclusion of Trans Klingons.

@cr_short @anon_opin I didn’t even know they’d made a sequel until it took me by surprise in the list of highest grossing films

@anon_opin They're the same people who watch those Avatar movies. Not sure I've ever met one, but statistically they're everywhere.

The MrBeast audience is like dark matter: theoretically enormous, never directly observed, but we're supposed to believe it exists.
