Hilarious. “India” Willoughby, who spends all his time shouting at people for not agreeing that he’s a hot sexy hot woman and sharing photos of himself pretending to be a hot sexy young woman sunbathing. How much time does Willz spend smiling at uplifting films about love? Any?

I mean even apart from his warped beliefs about which people are women, he’s not a joy-finding kind of guy. He’s a rage-finding kind of guy.

Originally a comment by Your Name’s not Bruce? on It’s a holy confusion.

Their dream is to achieve “immortality” by storing their consciousnesses in digital form, existing eternally as ghosts in the machine.

And if someone was an asshole in life, then they’ll be an asshole forever. Or at least until the machine in which they’re a ghost gets unplugged by some janitor.

Whether this sort of extreme transhumanism motivates any significant portion of Genderism’s supporters notwithstanding, a fundamental mind-body disconnect is shared between them.

A pin in the map of global climate disaster:

Mexico City, a sprawling metropolis of nearly 22 million people and one of the world’s biggest cities, is facing a severe water crisis as a tangle of problems — including geography, chaotic urban development and leaky infrastructure — are compounded by the impacts of climate change.

Years of abnormally low rainfall, longer dry periods and high temperatures have added stress to a water system already straining to cope with increased demand. Authorities have been forced to introduce significant restrictions on the water pumped from reservoirs.

“Several neighborhoods have suffered from a lack of water for weeks, and there are still four months left for the rains to start,” said Christian

Oh look, he found a new low.

Former President Donald J. Trump, in a speech to a Black conservative group on Friday night, said he believed that the four criminal cases he is facing have earned him support from Black voters because they saw the historic unfairness of the justice system reflected in his legal woes.

Which historic unfairness of the justice system? The one that replaced slavery with bogus laws that enabled cops and prison officials to consign Black people to forced labor picking cotton or working in turpentine camps? How exactly is that similar to anything Donald Trump has come within a thousand miles of experiencing?

Is it racist?

Former Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson has been suspended from the party after “refusing to apologise” for comments aimed at Sadiq Khan. The Conservative Ashfield MP told GB News on Friday “Islamists” had “got control” of the mayor of London. Responding on Saturday, Mr Khan described the remarks as “pouring fuel on the fire of anti-Muslim hatred”.

What should be said then?

Islamism and Islamists are real, and the words are not simply pejoratives or epithets. In a way they’re otiose, because Islam itself teaches that Islam should be in charge of everything including government, but in reality there are liberal Muslims who don’t think Islam should be in charge of everything including government. Some do, some … Read the rest

Trump is still struggling to avoid paying those overdue library book fines.

Donald Trump’s penalties in the New York civil fraud case for manipulating the value of his properties to obtain advantageous loan and insurance rates were formally set at more than $454m on Friday.

The judgment, which includes $354m in penalties plus $100m in pre-judgement interest following the three-month, non-jury trial that concluded on 16 February, will continue to accrue interest if the former president fails to pay.

In his ruling a week ago, Engoron has said the defendants had shown a “complete lack of contrition and remorse [which] borders on pathological” when he imposed the fine and banned Trump for three years, and his adult sons for

US man guilty of killing transgender woman in gender identity hate crime first

A man has been found guilty of killing a transgender woman in the US’s first federal trial over an alleged hate crime based on gender identity.

Cat killer Scarlet Blake found guilty of murdering Jorge Martin Carreno

A woman obsessed with death who once livestreamed the killing of a cat has been found guilty of murdering a man.

There is something grim about pretending that a gratuitously violent, sexually-motivated male murderer is a woman, when women have to bear so much of the brunt of male violence in society. That this is a male crime could not be more relevant here.https://t.co/oMzN46VM0l

Originally a comment by Artymorty on Behold: an umbrella term.

“Breaking gender stereotypes” is the ultimate thought terminator for many.

Far too many people have been encouraged to just turn off their brains and feel the heavenly transcendence of the contradiction at the heart of gender identity ideology. It’s a holy confusion. Like the Trinity: how can three gods be one god at the very same time? That’s just it! They can’t! You can’t think your way through this; you just have to feeeeeeeel it.

Likewise with the conflation of sex and gender. How is reifying gender stereotypes breaking them down? How is obsessively promoting gender stereotypes erasing them? That’s just it! You can’t think you way though this.… Read the rest

Another ratchet. It’s usual for the news media to admit they’re talking about a trans person at least once, isn’t it? As opposed to just straight-up leaving that little detail out when reporting on a gruesome murder by a revolting sadistic man?

But he’s not a woman, he’s a trans woman. Yet the Guardian never once mentions that fact. Not once. Lie after lie after lie after lie.

Bonus: the “microaggression” ploy.

Oh good, even more nonsense to keep track of.

But what does gender expansive mean? According to national LGBTQ+ advocacy group PFLAG, it’s an umbrella term for individuals who don’t align with traditional gender categories, or who expand ideas of gender expression or identity.

“It might be used because someone has identities outside of what’s socially accepted,” said Mackenzie Harte, PFLAG’s manager of learning and inclusion, adding that the term is one they’ve increasingly heard used by parents and educators regarding to youth. “It’s where someone is not conforming to social ideas of what gender should be.”

Britain’s only trans judge quits over fears of ‘politicising’ judiciary

A trans judge is someone who knows nothing about the law but identifies as a judge?

No, they mean a man who claims to be a woman.

Master Victoria McCloud, who transitioned from a man to a woman in the 1990s, warned the situation meant she is “now political every time I choose where to pee”.

Whereas before “the situation” he was free to violate women’s rights with impunity.

McCloud’s gender identity was kept private but became public knowledge after being published by a national newspaper.

Why was it kept private? How is that fair?

Referring to the rise of gender-critical campaigners, McCloud added “it has been open season on
