The show won't work. It'll collapse, or be cancelled. Essiedu (Snape) is already receiving death threats before a single episode has aired. An Italian actress has been cast as Parvati Patil, a canonically Indian character. Stanton's parents had to disable all of their daughter's social media within an hour of her casting announcement due to racism and, again, death threats. She is eleven years old and already articles dissecting her skin colour have since been written. The cast is already fracturing. Lithgow nearly quit over Rowling. Nick Frost publicly distanced himself from her views. Essiedu signed an open letter supporting trans people, while playing a character in a show exec produced by Britain's most prominent anti-trans voice. The show is also biannual, not annual. Season one arrives Christmas 2026. Deathly Hallows, if they get there, lands around 2040. John Lithgow will be 95, almost guaranteeing he'll die during filming, much like Richard Harris died aged 72 after just two films. The story itself is a now a logistical trap. A Black Snape being hung upside down by the Marauders, spending years fighting for blood purity, then dying for the cause of a white woman he loved. Those scenes cannot be written cleanly anymore. Every choice will generate a fresh brand new controversy from absolutely every angle and political sphere. This franchise requires a sustained decade of audience goodwill to function. That goodwill simply does not exist anymore, as her base is now the most vitriolic, toxic abusers, a narrative at some point (if not already, seemingly) HBO Max will have to adresss. The three child leads have not signed long-term contracts. What happens when they're 18, 19, 20, with fully formed opinions about the woman whose name is on the tin? The magic is a dead horse.

Japan is set to roll out nationwide LGBTQIA education programs in schools, universities, and workplaces. The goal is for more people in Japan to understand sexual orientation and gender identity outside of cisgender, heterosexual norms.

The Star of David was used by the Nazis to identify Jewish people, while the pink triangle was used to mark those persecuted for being homosexual. At the time, homosexuality was criminalised in Germany, and many of the Allied countries that liberated the concentration camps including Great Britain also had laws that criminalised gay people. As a result, some survivors who were freed from Nazi camps continued to face discrimination, prosecution, and imprisonment after the war. The pink triangle was later reclaimed by the LGBT community as a symbol of remembrance, resistance, and pride, particularly in recognition of those who suffered persecution because of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

why does the icon of photos twitch like an asshole

Under 16s can't use social media but also, under 10s are going to be taught by uncontrollable, black box artificial intelligence? The fuck is happening in the UK?

Trans girl: I want HRT because I don't want to go through testosterone puberty. Transphobes: No, it's probably just a phase and you will grow out of it. Trans girl as an adult: It wasn't a phase, and I want to be an athlete. Transphobes: No, you had testosterone puberty. Trans girl as an adult: Estrogen reverses the advantage and actually gives me a disadvantage because- Transphobes: No, idc.

June 1st. Taxi driver called me a “faggot.” Yet the heterosexuals will complain all month I expect visibility and acceptance. #Pride2026

This is why L comes first in LGBTQIA . #PrideMonth

“say they are still fighting.” Good, hope it bankrupts them. I hope their livelihoods are wrecked. I hope their entire lives fall apart for this nonsense. The sooner TERFs realise they’re not welcome to dictate the rest of the world purely based on womb, the better.

"Your generation is so soft" says the ones triggered by a fucking rainbow

Any LGBTQ person who tries to tell me how I should or shouldn’t engage with TERFs - or how I should conduct myself, full stop - gets blocked on sight. We’re done with the Katy Montgomerie Regina George brand of queer policing. Don’t like it? Slide on by.

During #Pride and every day: LGBTIQ refugee rights are human rights. No exceptions, no compromises, no discrimination.

Censoring the face of a cis paedophile to warn of the dangers of trans people is the most egregious bullshit. TERFs are a danger to children.

I came back from the thrift store today with the recalled 1998 talking Teletubbie doll that was calling everyone a faggot.
