@Shelter She is that. I also think she's a mascot or spokesperson. And that's the real danger of her. She puts a well-spoken front and introduction on her radical extremist alt-right friends in the UK.
@Shelter I am trans. Enby or nonbinary. I'm using people's love of Potter to help clarify her views to fans. Many of them who are cis are under the impression that's she's welcome to her differing opinion without realizing the real harm she's doing to trans kids. I've changed many perspectives this year and counting. It will be much easier if Rowling continues to out herself as a bigot as she's been doing recently. She's less subtle as time goes on.
In related news, Rowling threw a fit on Twitter when a transgender fan of the Harry Potter franchise tweeted that she owns Harry Potter books and movies but didnβt want to spend any more money for Harry Potter products in light of how Rowling herself said that her revenue gives her comfort as she has become perhaps the best known anti-transgender activist in the world.

JK Rowling reveals how ruthless she is willing to go in her crusade against trans people by opening a crisis shelter that would specifically exclude trans women, a first in Scotland's history. John Iadarola and Jayar Jackson break it down on The Damage Report. https://youtu.be/b8FWaqKdkBs #Bigotry #TransRights #HumanRights #TransWomenAreWomen #2SLGBTQIA #News #HarryPotter #Rowling #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks #JayarJackson
@JosephLane I just read that the sanitize feature of CoSo removes metadata from images that can result in the image going sideways. One suggestion is to try editing the picture and see if that fixes the issue.
@TheOtherLisa3 a skinny pig is a hairless Guinea pig. Itβs not a contagious disease or anything, and she has fur on her nose and feet. Just her dominant genetic trait means sheβs mostly hairlessβ¦ like a Sphinx cat, I guess. Theyβre popular for those with allergies that the hairlessness might mitigate. I adopted her from a woman who was allergic to her, even though sheβs a hairless variety.
She looks like a Canadian house hippo, just with bigger ears.
Heβs very likely to not win based on his past vote results. His candidacy announcement is super duper early (two years out). His own party didnβt want him to make this announcement, wanted him to delay. It was predicted he would announce this as soon as he possible could. Itβs self-serving. How? He wants to blame all of his legal trouble as political attacks from the Democrats. Heβs trying to spin doctor his crimes as slander. Donβt let him get away with it. Heβs a scheisser. #Politics #Trump
Really enjoying CoSo. I might not post often, but I drink from the Community Firehose daily.

@HoneyBadgerEnergy I've stopped using Photoshop since I had to upgrade computers. I now have a graphics heavy gaming laptop and I'm using GIMP. I am very particular so I tend to use both Canva and Gimp in conjunction. Photoshop has become pay to use in past years since I stopped buying the software, anyway. Not much different in my mind to what I'm now doing.
I braved the local Krazy Binz today and scored a load of wooden beads and embroidery floss. A Tarot deck with circular cards, small carabiners, twine, key rings, and mtg card protectors were also scored on $1 Wednesday. Woohoo! #Deals #KrazyBinz #Shopping #CraftSupplies #Tarot
@TessNam Iβve been listening to this podcast also. Excellent presentation of the History that now is repeating itself. Very poignant/relevant right now. Powerful.
@HoneyBadgerEnergy Thatβs super cool to know. I started the Canva free trial and I was debating keeping or canceling a subscription. Iβve been enjoying the features. This info is neat. Thanks for sharing.
The only reason I stayed on the bird app as long as I did: Daily David Tennant as a Fennec Fox π¦ https://twitter.com/fennecfoxdavid/
@The_Amazing_Narnoc so glad to be rid of the bird appβs divisive algorithm that focuses on being aggressively edgy to gain followers. This is a nice space.

Like he said, you shouldnβt have to pay for anything. Others are having issues navigating. Youβll get there. Also, hereβs the user guide:

@MountainGirl in the meantime you can try #CoSoTips while I look into the landing page.
@MountainGirl $4.99 a month for a site that has no ad revenue is not the same as Musk asking $19.99 a month to maintain the verified blue check mark on a platform that makes way way more from ad revenue. As for the landing page, Iβll look into it and get back to you.
Following the topic of creative makers not charging enough for their work, itβs in part because of comments they can get from customers. Many side hustlers wish to avoid conflict and be people pleasers even if the amount offered to them is a pittance. This song was written in response to people who try to haggle on a handmade item. Rude/crass language ensues, but I find the song honest and relatable, also cute: https://youtu.be/NGR20B2cEBQ
