Free Palestine.

If you’ve got even a drop of empathy and love for a fellow human, you need to support Palestine. There is a genocide happening right now against all Palestinians in Israel, adult and child, sick and well, evacuating or not. The Israeli government wants all Palestinians dead and they’re not being subtle about it

The Pope spoke out against “Israel” recently and called them terrorists. If the goddamn Pope of all people can recognise that the “Israeli” government and IOF are terrorists, why can’t our politicians? Or anyone else, for that matter. Why can’t people realise that this isn’t self defence, this is just genocide, an ethic cleansing to “Israel” can have more land, so they don’t have to ‘deal’ with the Palestinians anymore. So they don’t have to worry about giving Palestinians their own land back.

To all the people who think Non binary lesbians aren’t valid: Since when were you the gay police. I can be non binary and say I’m a lesbian because I don’t like men. Who the hell are you to stop me from doing something that brings me joy and doesn’t hurt anyone else? You are hurting people like me who wouldn’t have any other label to go under apart from lesbian. Leave us alone

It’s been a while since the whole J.K Rowling controversy happened but a while back I was having a conversation with my auntie about it and I wasn’t out yet but I said she was transphobic because she is and my auntie said that she didn’t think Rowling was transphobic. To this is said that my transgender friends had told me that she was (it was actually me knowing she was but I was too scared to say anything) but she didn’t listen. Imagine ignoring the marginalised peoples opinions on issues that involve them. This is one small example but this happened every.single.day and it’s got to a government level where the people in power believe they know more than us on issues that directly affect us. Imagine a pigeon telling a mole how to correctly dig a hole and think about how ridiculous that is. To the government: get your shit together

One of the many reasons I love Miriam

[Video Transcript:

Miriam Margolyes on The Graham Norton Show.

Miriam: "You know this thing about trans? Now all these people will always say 'we mustn't talk about trans', well fuck that. I'm gonna talk about it." (Audience laughter)

"I was very keen on grammar and so when people started talking about pronouns and that they wanted to use 'them' and not 'he/she', I thought 'what the fuck are you talking about?' It is clear, it's grammar. It's the structure of language.

"But I met a wonderful actress in Australia, Zoe Terakes, do you know who I mean? She's a brilliant actress and she's trans and I - she had a discussion with me about it and she said 'what does it matter to you? If you can make somebody happy by calling them 'they' instead of 'he' or 'she', why not do it?

"And I thought 'that's right.' It doesn't matter about grammar." (Applause) "if you can make someone happy and give them a sense of themselves then do it."

Boy George, sitting beside her: "Absolutely."

Miriam: "And so, I'm now somebody who uses they and all the rest of it. Whatever they want me to say, I'll say it."

Im glad Matt Hancock didn’t win I’m A Celebrity but it’s shocking he even made it that far at all. He’s a bad fucking person. I can’t remember who but someone said they find it difficult to separate him as a person and him as a politician. There is no difference. He is both a politician and a person and in both aspect he’s bad. He’s a cunt and doesn’t deserve the respect he’ll gain from being on the show. Showing he’s more than just a politician doesn’t take away from all the shit he’s done while being a politician.
