@jpuddlegoose @suffolkvicar @MosaicCofE @NicolaDenyer1 @guyhewitt11 @AltTextReminder I've looked it up. On the website at least if you go to "settings and support", then "settings and Privacy" then "accessibility, display and languages" then "accessibility" where there is a heading media and a slider to "Receive image description reminder"

@liturgicalben @DrFrancisYoung My experience in cathedrals has been that worship is core

I wouldn’t say that it would be a Dean and chapter, but those employed by them who would express such views. Granted, they aren’t under a requirement to be ‘of faith’, but, as I found, continual belittling of worship and how it “got in the way” of commercial activities does demonstrate how places view their core purpose - in the case I experienced, some felt it was a right pain.

This quote makes me feel quite uncomfortable. Whilst I have tried to justify some alternative uses to ensure funding to underwrite “core purpose”, this quote demonstrates something I experienced whilst working in cathedrals: apathy and general hostility to the worship of God and a continued mission creep of middle class agnosticism.

@JayHulmePoet But it's ok because the bishop's heartbroken about it....

We have received lots of messages stating how a team of Trans Women would win leagues and beat every cis team. Facts we have fielded a team of solely trans women against a team of solely cis women on 2 occasions. We lost both games without scoring a goal 7-0 and 1-0

@brandiwine2021 @legaltweetz That and people understand "trading up" (i.e. a lot of anti-trans stuff is rooted in a perception that men are better than women, so men must have an ulterior motive to trade down)

@legaltweetz I think the reason trans men are less visible (and they are) is because it's easier for them to grow a beard than it is for us to grow boobs. 😆

One criticism that I have of the trans movement is the invisibility of trans men. We get the same shit from transphobes, yet TERFs act like we don’t exist at the same time. That’s because we largely destroy their AGP/fetish narrative. I get that trans women are more targeted in general by TERFs & transphobes. However, so are we. We need more trans men to be visible on the front lines & to be leaders in the movement. That’s one of the reasons that I do what I do as a trans man. I fight in solidarity with my trans sisters & nonbinary folk. Rise up trans men! You have a voice too 🏳️‍⚧️✊

@JayHulmePoet Oh and broccoli (lumps of green icing to look like broccoli). I was responsible for the is it an angel or a dove ones

@JayHulmePoet Alt text - a square plastic box containing at least 2 layers of cupcakes. The top layer features around 16 cupcakes with a variety of designs in fondant icing. There are two sheep, made of balls of white icing 1 of black with an eye. Three of the is it an angel or a dove on blue

@JayHulmePoet A couple have a red heart with Love wins. There are circles of yellow black and red with a white cross. Marbled icing saying 90's boi, 90's non-binary, 90's gurl. An alpha and omega in red on blue. A green background with lots of flowers

@JayHulmePoet That is ridiculous and so Jay!

@greenbelt Please, please live up to your accessibilty mission and use alt text... (you can even set up your account to remind you to do this)

1. Maybe you gathered round our campfire at night for warmth, storytelling and songs? The evenings could get a little chilly - but not here.

Part of the joy of Greenbelt is its breadth. Each of us makes our own version. Here are just some highlights from some of the more unexpected corners of #GB24 Some you might have seen, some you might not have realised were there at all. What did your festival look like? 🧵

@EntirelyGill A thousand cupcakes

@EntirelyGill I'll try and get pictures...

This is wonderful. Also, my brain cannot comprehend what 1000 cupcakes looks like.

I still strongly believe that fashion is uniquely disrespected because it has historically been coded as frivolous and feminine. Similar areas of culture that are coded as "masculine," such as architecture, do not endure this sort of derision.

@Donsayers @fluff35 @henry_sister Exactly. And if the writer wasn't paid to write it, I'm not paying to read it...

@WeatherOnMars @WalkerMarcus @hoylus @selvaratnam Yes, gathered churches encouraging people to support smaller churches seems like a plan (as long as they don't want to control things)

@WalkerMarcus @hoylus @selvaratnam Can you graft?

Shock me

@Rgt71Robert @churchofengland Eventually our point was taken and it moved beyond the parish boundary but - a couple of years later they began again in the parish. The archdeacon even tried to persuade us to accept them this time. NO! Very poor oversight of BMOs. At no point was the parish ever consulted!

@fluff35 @henry_sister Which means a) creating an account and b) allowing ads...

@Turkeyplucker @VictoriaCoren Apart from Southwell and Nottingham because that's in the south (but the Province of York) (and bits of Derby Diocese are in the North - Peak district is north)

Yes @VictoriaCoren Scunthorpe is in the south - it's Lincolnshire and south of the Humber.
