This is why they need a solid LGBT+ representation internally and then to LISTEN to them, instead of treating it like a side issue. I get there's an election to win, and I'm still voting for them because I think they're just slipping in an inelegant way, but boy howdy it makes me skeevy to see big John going to TERF central a week out.

Labour has gone to mumsnet right back to at least milliband, which, I mean, makes sense because young families are a key group for labour. Milliband famously did quite well there.

I really hope the self ID stuff is an improvement and more can come down the line.

I was reading about this; this was some not-very-heavily-research but well-meant paper by a US psychologist about power poses that completely escaped the lab and these 'power poses' became the fad of the year among the cadre of MBAs, consultants, and other business weasels who replace their humanity with Harvard Business Review programming.

Someone (from UKMT?) that knows this needs to write to the party and explain this stuff. They most likely have no idea. The mumsnet and vulnerable "real women" thing is the worst/most insidious bit because if you don't know better it sounds completely reasonable.

I guarantee you there are definitely huge efforts going on within the party to eradicate transphobia. It's just taking a long time because it's a very uphill battle.

Brown did a Q&A on there too. I remember because he didn't answer it & then 24 hours later answered it on Twitter "anything with chocolate on it". It was extremely dumb but people turned it into a thing because media bad.

I don't even know. I mean a chocolate digestive is nice dunked in a cuppa tea but I don't know that I'd call it a favourite. But then I'd just rather have a bar of chocolate than a biscuit anyway.

Trip report from the GP:

I asked if I could be prescribed vitamin D supplements and the doctor said:

"We're moving away from prescribing vitamin D supplements because everyone in Scotland is at risk of vitamin D deficiency in winter."

I replied: "That sounds like the opposite of a sensible response to the issue."

She gave a sympathetic half-nod.

I assured her that I understood that it wasn't her fault (gently caress me, imagine being a healthcare worker and having to put up with the Tories being your bosses!)

It's a good thing I can just about afford to pay for them myself! I hope everyone else can! :tizzy:

Vitamin D fortification of staple foods would be one way to address this on a national level. Done in Finland with milk, butter and margarine for instance.

They used to do that here too. Niacin too to prevent pellagra. Now we just have pellagra cases again.

He made a bagless vacuum that was marginally more powerful than other bagless and was a nightmare to empty for anyone with allergies, and has been coasting on the BRITISH INVENTOR JAMES 'BRITISH' DYSON name and middle class idiots to release stupid bullshit since then.

Yeah I hate the oval office, but the cordless Dyson which charges on the wall in my kitchen is excellent, the best vacuum I've ever owned by a mile - and I've used multiple members of the Henry clan in various jobs over the years
