Dylan Mulvaney's response to Trump's recent attacks on her at the WHCD is worth watching. www.readtpa.com/p/the-punchl...

And this will continue, I suppose. She's closely skirting the legal envelope - under UK law! - taking care to stay on her side of legal accountability.

A short thread explaining trans exclusion in the law, and the Code of Practice, in response to a load of questions 🧵 Obviously this is necessarily simplified. I cannot write a legal textbook on Bluesky.

Refer to Jess O'Thomson's @jessothomson.co.uk brief for now, I suggest. bsky.app/profile/jess...

Messaging the mess to the public - agree. Necessary, generating understanding and thrust, challenging as well

Yes. In practical terms - if I read the guidance and some legal comments correctly - there are circumstances of services where the exclusion does not need to appear. It‘s paramount to work out those precise parameters and communicate: especially to service providers and gender police. Challenging.

I. Have. A. Bad. Feeling. About. This. Cementing a course of ideology and of action for Labour, I suppose, and bringing "dissidents" in line (such as those signing that EDM once upon a time?) before the next elections.

This would then also apply if I came to visit the UK (business or pleasure) and had to use the services of the NHS, as I read this. Consequences ... (And we haven't talked about where they would locate my bed in the hospital.)

Sad. Devastated. Hurting. #Berlin. Thinking of the victims - direct and indirect - first and foremost.

Horrible news out of Berlin.

Ich fürchte, da hast Du nachher eine schwierige Aufgabe vor Dir. Alles Gute.

#Berlin #CSD Noch wissen wir nichts über den Täter. Aber wir wissen um die Opfer. Das sollte für uns der vordringliche Gedanke sein im Moment. Bin erschüttert. Traurig. Tut weh.

Biden is a man of integrity. But, of course, the DoJ and similar will sift through every soundbite they can twist to make Biden sound bad / guilty of something. The SCOTUS ruling re: presidential immunity protects Biden, too, and he issued pardons upon leaving office to protect people.

One wonders...with how deep their pockets are, how much of remorse / change of future conduct will this kind of fine effect? You wrote it: It incites the rage against "the system" even more, with them and followers. It will probably increase the flow of funding, make them more bold next time Idk

IFG-Abbau, Abschaffung von Berichtspflichten (siehe etwa "Bayern schafft Klimabericht ab")-alles unter der Überschrift Bürokratieabbau. Schleichend. "Vernünftig argumentiert". Gleichzeitig will man die Bevölkerung zu mehr demokratischem Bewusstsein motivieren. Transparenz! www.br.de/nachrichten/...

Almost thought so. The double bind of politicians being in office. No easy way out.

They could release a public statement before they withdraw, couldn't they? Just thinking ...

Und dann gibt es ja noch die vielen kleineren Brände, die es nicht in die Nachrichten "schaffen". Nützlich: Deutscher Wetterdienst - Brand-Gefahren-Index (Vorhersage und Warnungen) www.wettergefahren.de/warnungen/in...

Most people are not policy experts. Therefore it's easy to produce a poll that finds that most people do not advocate for any particular sophisticated policy position. Centrists use this as a weapon against progress, which is bad. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/what-polls...

Hansen et al. only considered up to and including June 2026 which had a certain display re. jet stream patterns heating up Europe. The Northern summer is not over, yet ...
