I often say the way you are treated as a woman for having bad looks is also objectification, you’re just treated as a useless type of object
this is why everyone should be marxist feminists because you can feel a lot of guilt about this just from the lens of “objectification bad” but men’s desire isn’t objectification it’s commodity fetishism and these women feel like cheap goods

Black British culture is practically synonymous with youth culture. Because of this, it's like we are struggling to carve out an identity and behaviours that don't rely on secondary school. What is Black British elderhood? Read my essay on substack: https://t.co/bbj9WZLGeX

Welcome to the murky world of UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI). @novaramedia shines the spotlight on how this shadowy organisation hounds decent people standing up for human rights. Well worth a read. https://t.co/MR5WZfFjkM

It’s had children’s artwork removed from hospitals, doctors banned from wearing watermelon pins and claimed craft pens evoked 7 October. Are UK Lawyers for Israel really the cartoon villains they...

A pointless personal attack on an almost 80 year-old man who mostly works for free to support children’s literacy, who narrowly survived Covid and continues to have severe health issues. His crime? Using the free bus pass he is entitled to.
A writer so successful that today is a day dedicated to him in schools all over the country thinks it is reasonable that he travels for free due to his age. People have to stop taking things they do not need, it is wrong and it is bankrupting our country.
