Musk, Trump and the rest of the Republican leaders have been trying their very best to sink the ship of America.

The "next year" promise of the year...

Wow... just wow...

It's heartbreaking and enraging.

We're essentially at the point where the Israeli government could justify the Holocaust as long as the Nazis said "Hamas officers hiding among them" before killing people. The genocide is not only cruel but a callous waste of life, hope and talent.

There will be no corrective steps.

Okay, noted, thanks. There will never be any corrective steps as long we avoid thinking of any.

Go and cry on your lumpy pillows, Mike...

From a layperson's POV, this will seem to require years of untangling the law to properly give LGBTQ+ people their due rights under the law that is in theory afforded to everyone. This is a setback for immediate protections, but my view is that this isn't necessarily bad in the long term, so long as corrective steps are taken to address the root issue.

UK law has been written and interpreted over hundreds of years with various historical understandings of personhood throughout that time. At one point basically only men were people, so laws were only referring to them. After the affirmation of women's rights and suffrage, should we have just said: women are "men" for every intent and purpose, and just not bothered to update the law and keep using "men" everywhere thereafter? It seems similar to me that tacking trans people's rights on by making the definitions more ambiguous is fine early on, but at some point should be codified better in law, to give equal right to trans men, trans women and non-binary folks as to cisgender folks. Ignoring the difference of gender vs. sex under the law entirely, would leave gaps in serving trans and nonbinary people's unmet needs as well. None of this will happen on its own, so allies of LGBTQ+ people ought to contact their MP to make it happen.

I'm not oblivious to the harm to both women and transgender people that this ruling will bring upon the UK, but it should spur on actually solving the issues on codifying gender and sex under the law, rather than relying on half-solutions or temporary solutions.

I'd happily be educated on this topic.

Bailout money, even if approved, might not get to farmers in time before they go bankrupt due to induced government inefficiency. That's icing on the shit cake that the Trump administration has baked.

Trump and Lutnick will be turning the American economy into a Lootbox/Skinner Box economy... let the FOMO purchasing flow through you, buy buy buy before the tariffs go on again!

Howard Lutnick's iPhone little screw assembly plant plans in shambles rn 😔

It's going to be "become Truth Social 2 or else we'll break your company's legs" from the Trump admin now.

Stop non-antidisenshittification.
