The US is not “abandoning” its efforts for “peace” in the Ukraine-Russia war. They were never trying for peace. The Trump administration was trying to get a great deal for Putin, and the Ukrainians refused. Now the Ukrainians have no need of this charade. The war will end when Russia is defeated.

Trump: "Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. It sounds a little strange but President Putin was very generous in his feeling toward Ukraine succeeding” (December 2025)

russia continues to commit some of the worst war crimes since WWII, while the world stays silent. 💔📽 Kyiv, right now.

Netanyahu just unfollowed Trump.

Republican politician John McCain was one of the few people who understood from the beginning what Putin was all about. This interview is from 2014. It’s a shame most US politicians still lack this kind of clarity.

@OkayBiology Isn't that the guy who won the Edinburgh Comedy Award last year (what used to be called the Perrier Award)?

This guy has just solved the trans toilet dilemma.👍 He should be proposing this business plan on Dragon's Den. 🏳️‍⚧️

@Glinner @IanDunt @Dorianlynskey He sincerely believes that to qualify stiin someones gender identity or that gender identity is a real thing is just bigotry.

@Glinner @IanDunt @Dorianlynskey I was a long time listener to their former podcast Remainiacs/OGWN, so I've followed their thinking on this. Dorian Lynskey believes in innate gender identity, which he calls 'gender'. He has admitted that it's different to sex, but it still takes precendece 90+% of the time.

I think people like @IanDunt and @Dorianlynskey are still pretending to believe this stuff out of sheer embarrassment. Who will take them seriously again after this?

How could President Biden have planted 274 agents at the January 6 insurrection when Trump was president then?

A Russian disinformation operative once confided "Tulsi was my best asset. Whether or not she realized it".

This is Officer Caroline Edwards. She was attacked by the insurrectionists on January 6th. They cracked her heac open, resulting in a permanent brain injury. For all those who support Trump's pardons and say you "back the blue". You don't. You support fascism.

@treesey He's keeping sex and gender identity (which he usually calls just gender) separate, but insisting that gender identity is more important. But most trans identified people conflate sex and gender. Very few are willing to admit what their biological sex is, in my experience.

@treesey What he's missing is that many TRAs don't buy gender identity either. They claim to have literally changed biological sex. This includes India Willoughby and Katy Montgomerie.

We’ve reached the ‘biological essentialism’ stage of the argument

@Jebadoo2 I believe it's actually Johnny. Johnny Flint was his birth name.

Brian doesn’t like being told “no”.

Francis Fukuyama on the U.S. as a declining power: American decline is a direct product of Trump's rise since 2016. It is as if Trump had decided to do everything in his power to weaken the United States vis-à-vis China. He has polarized an already polarized country, cut funding for basic scientific research, and attacked American universities which are the best in the world. He and his colleagues have openly stated that their domestic opponents — the Democrats — are a far greater threat to the future of the United States than either China or Russia. There is agreement among America's friends and rivals that the United States has become something of a rogue state that is contributing to global instability and disorder — as well as something of a laughingstock.

As Trump relied more on loyal envoys than career diplomats, experienced Iran nuclear experts were pushed out of government. During talks with Tehran in Geneva, European officials were stunned to find themselves explaining basic uranium-enrichment concepts to the American team. One diplomat questioned how the U.S. could negotiate a nuclear deal without fully understanding the science behind it. Source: Reuters

@lemon_charlotte @JournalismSEEN @jan_murray @IanDunt @Dorianlynskey @jk_rowling Lynskey is totally rabid on this issue. He's blocked me twice each on here and bluesky just for asking simple questions in a civil way. Any mention of AGP or that maybe some trans people are just gay, or that Imane Khalif is male is a block.

@JournalismSEEN @jan_murray @IanDunt @Dorianlynskey @jk_rowling Pair of tossers. Ian Dunt blocked me on Bluesky for f-all. In the same conversation Lynskey popped up like a rabid dog - he was vicious. When I googled him I couldn't believe who he was. He has no interest in debate, truth or indeed reality.

‘You see her get a bit less kind every year until there is this, like this *thing* left over…What happens to the human brain when it comes into contact with tribalism on social media?’ @IanDunt and @Dorianlynskey struggle to be rational in this podcast about @jk_rowling No link, as it’s built on the premise that it’s bizarre and unpleasant for a high profile, intelligent woman publicly to defend women’s rights. But you can find it on YouTube - these screenshots will give you some idea of whether you want to hunt for it. Note on their phrase: ‘Fundamental denial of gender identity’ The concept of gender identity is incoherent, actually fundamentally so. This is a fact. Opposite sex brain *cannot* exist. The only evidence for it lies in personal experience, the sort of anecdotal evidence that’s usually dismissed. A man with ‘dysphoria’ is, when all is said, a man with ‘dysphoria’.

JK Rowling mansplained, by Sarah Ditum (@sarahditum) What happened to JK Rowling? If only there were some kind of primary source that could tell us why she became interested in the clash between trans activism and women’s rights — say, a first-person essay. But alas, the archive is silent. It must be, because why else would two male podcasters have taken it upon themselves to solve this supposed mystery? This week, the ‘Origin Story’ podcast, hosted by indistinguishable journalists Ian Dunt and Dorian Lynskey, bravely shouldered the burden of analysing Rowling over the course of two episodes. Do they succeed? Not remotely. But they do offer a fascinating insight into what happens when a certain kind of progressive man becomes radicalised by Bluesky. Read more below ⬇️ buff.ly/fyIiwWg

@LifeOfBOS @EBaronCartoons Because trans men are women, obviously. Humans, like all mammals, cannot change sex. Trans is a lie.

@mpd77 @EBaronCartoons How is it fair and reasonable to force trans men to use women's facilities and services?

Saturday's Guardian cartoon #transrights #EHRC #LGBTQ

@LivvyPersonals Try searching the r/M2F subreddit for 'euphoria boner'.

@mpd77 See, this proves my point. Autogynephilia is NOT a real diagnosis. It's been MASSIVELY discredited in major health organizations, and the APA.
