A few nice things

What have Keir Starmer’s cabinet members said about LGBTQ+ issues?
(I'm not keen on Starmer, but there are allies in Parliament now???)

Starmer confirms Rwanda deportation plan 'dead'

If you have any money to spare, masakochan has set up a Go Fund Me for Top Surgery.<3

And finally, Kerk made me aware of a new Doctor Who reactor. This is not normally news, but he watched the new season FIRST, and has now gone back and started S1. It's fascinating, and he's absolutely delightful. :)

ETA: How could I forget! kaffy_r posted fic: Bubble Tea
Summary: Summary: The Doctor wasn't sure how many plates the mysterious entity that brought them all together could handle, nor could she figure out why all the plates were in the air. What she did know was that she had to get all the plates - her friends and colleagues - safely out of the holding pen in which they found themselves.

(It's a big crossover fic, go have a look if you are curious.)

You said 'Please share', so I shared. <3

Yes, I stumbled over him during s1/14/40/Whatever, and he really is.

I've only just caught up with everything, and I love it. What a lovely person and the best sort of reactor - very animated and deeply intrigued by everything.

He's finding such joy in it! Truly how it's meant to be. ♥

(And, also, re. the rest of the post, I'm so glad the Rwanda thing is gone. What a horrendous marriage of deeply appalling and deeply stupid to have as a policy. It will not be missed, dear God.)

I just draw pink sparkly hearts around everything. And he made speculation videos! Which I haven't watched yet...

Talk about scapegoats. :(

That commentator is so good! I've watched a few of his videos and had the playlist saved to go back through properly and then the finale happened and I kind of lost the will.

But I absolutely intend to get back to him.

I found it a nice way to re-watch the season, without re-watching?

And his S1 commentary is stellar!

I'm only sorry they wasted so much money on that Rwanda plan. Lunatics.

Hatred is expansive. :(

I just saw this post, and I wanted to thank you for spreading the news about my ungainly fic.

I'm writing this on the day that President Joe Biden stepped aside and endorsed Kamala Harris. My brain is boiling, but I'm glad to hear that the Rwanda plan is dead. I'm hoping that Starmer stops trying to be a Tony Blair Labour leader, and does better. Fingers crossed.

Bob and I have now watched the two-part Who finale. I have ... thoughts. Oh, Rusty ....

You're most welcome! <3 (Also I need to leave a comment on Pt, but going on holiday rather delayed it. *g*)

Yeah it's... been something. I will post my take, but again: Holiday! \o/

At this point, anything is better than the Tories, pretty much, and Labour does seem to generally be composed of grown-ups. We just need to work on the TERFs and the neo-liberals.

YAY! It is one of the MOST Rusty things ever. The memes are 👌👌👌👌👌!
