Learned about Schofield's grooming case, not because our very own tabloid site I was reading had article about it, but because they had one about Clarkson's two cents about the situation ????

Gay men do not pose the same threat as lesbians do, given it is women who are the means of reproduction (both sexual and social). Therefore, most ideological pressure to conform sexually is put onto women. Gay men don’t escape societal coercion, but it is women who are targeted most, particularly during our fertile years when we can be sexually reproductive. It should be no surprise that most women trying to escape that pressure cooker by ‘transitioning’, or calling themselves queer, are under the age of 40 i.e within their fertile years. In contrast most men who ‘transition’ or identify as women are typically heterosexual and middle-aged. Having already had a wife and children, they now want to enjoy their autogynephilic fetish whilst their children’s mother gets on with the washing and cleaning. Any men, at any time of life, can expect a household servant and free babysitter, whether it’s their wives or mothers. Men’s domestic and sexual freedoms remain uncurtailed throughout their lives. No one blinks when a man like Philip Schofield ‘comes out’ at age 58 after talking to teenage boys on social media. No one claimed Schofield cannot really be gay because he was married to a woman and they had several children together. No one finds implausible that a decorated male Olympic athlete may reinvent himself as a woman at age 65. Men are the masters of their own sexual subjectivity and meaning.

For once a motorsports-related governing body has done the right thing in ditching Jack Nicholls.

I’m glad he’s gone, but I’m just overwhelmingly disappointed that we live in a world where this still happens so often.

Please, men, do better.

Schofield? Schmofield. 😏 (& the same to everyone obsessed by his sex life. 😏)

Yes. well, as I've said on quite a number of occasions to various people, all this celebrity stuff, in particular, is for the birds. I know I've said "for the birds" quite a few times recently, I think. But pretty much all celebrity stuff, is for me now, in particular celebrity sex scandals, or pseudo scandals, whether homosexual or heterosexual, whether they would involve Philip Schofield, or I don't know Prince Harry and Meghan Markle! Are a complete waste of time as news, particularly from the viewpoint, of any sincere and informed socialist. Well ... I know that quite a few people use or tend to use celebrity issues, as a way of relating themselves to more general issues: or even simply so that they have something to talk about, and everybody else will know what it is they're talking about.

But: this is simply a very shallow way to relate to the world. And you do have to remember, that the more time people spend on line or anywhere else, talking about celebrities, and gossiping about them, the less time they and the actual media will have to concentrate on ordinary people and talk about them and about issues that matter.

So it's a question of where the focus should be! 🙂

And don't give me that stuff all about how immoral Phillip Schofield or someone like him is. He actually fits into an a number of very normal in inverted commas cliches: that of the boss who has an affair with his secretary, which this is the equivalent of; then there's the established gay trope of the much older and more experienced man with a lot younger man, and so on and so forth. To suggest that this is anything extraordinary or criminal is simply naive. It's both naive and hypocritical: which unfortunately both are very prevalent features of contemporary British society. 😏

As I told to that Wolf person or whatever his name was on a fairly recent Twitter thread, I know exactly why - the web of reasons why - this Phillip Schofield thing is being made the most tremendous fuss of on social media right now. As I told him, it is partially mass hysteria which is fueled by the mainstream media; Britain goes through a paedophile panic every so often, which was once very neatly satirised by the satirical program Brass Eye! 🙂

And secondly, to go along with the mass hysteria, we also have a sort of mass collective guilt, which was really sparked off by, and has been hanging around for years, due to the failure by the police, the media and I suppose ultimately the public, to catch and expose Jimmy Savile as the kind of predator he was. As I also said on Twitter, worrying about Savile really is shutting the stable door after the horse has indeed bolted. 😏

But the comparisons being made, particularly on YouTube right now, between Schofield and Savile, are quite simply ridiculous and obviously completely unwarranted. Often they are done by insinuation: like with the juxtaposition of a picture of one with a picture of the other, both Photoshopped so as to look extremely unpleasant, particularly on the thumbnail where everyone can see it. This is both clickbait and libel of the worst variety and it should not be allowed by YouTube, and it should be removed. But we all know they're much more interested in censoring political channels.

Yes. This smearing by

association: that is something the modern mainstream media are well known to do. **Usually when they are producing some type of propaganda or another.** Mr Corbyn got plenty of that: but that's another matter.

And we also notice - at least I do - that most of the fuss about Schofield, at least that which has revealed itself in my YouTube feed, and nearly all the smears about Schofield, are produced by right wing sites, the likes of GB News, and further right. The kind of poisonous sneery tone, of a lot of these obviously non-socialist sites towards Schofield; denote to me two things. And often I think it's a mixture of the two! Namely, a kind of poisonous - when is it never poisonous - schadenfreude brought on by jealousy of a very successful career (some of these tubers are obviously people on the peripheries of showbiz). Second would be the still commonly felt among right wingers hostility towards homosexuals. Which they are cunningly attempting to disguise as something completely else: but I believe I can read the real emotional and ideological message particularly behind some of the more sneery type of channels. If you didn't hate gays, and you weren't jealous pricks, you wouldn't be sneering! is my conclusion. 🤷‍♀️

I don't really care whether a person is "moral", by the way. But I do care about fairness. The current treatment of Schofield, and the juxtaposition with Savile, is most certainly unfair. 😏

Anyway: the modern left, well most of it, doesn't appear to care about fairness: and once again quite stupidly they appear to have fallen for another scam. Or a mass hysteria; or a witch hunt; whatever one wants to call it. Similar to with the #itwasascam antisemitism thing really. 😏 Well at least, I can see them cheering it along on Twitter. I don't know if any left YouTuber has made any pieces positive or negative about Schofield: I haven't seen any of the ones I follow cover it, I haven't really looked. 🤷‍♀️

And similar of course to #metoo; which died a death really, with the flop of Amber Heard. And a bloody good thing it did!

What I'm saying - the conclusion I have come to - is the all these kind of celebrity things, when even not total smears, are a complete waste of time: and should not be touched with a barge pole by the left.

In fact, I would ban all this type of idea of social justice! That they think is social justice anyway; when really it's based on media bullying and Twitter dog piling; and doesn't achieve anything anyway. Much like that other pompous person on a Twitter thread I was on a couple of days ago was saying something like I was stopping successors of Savile from being hunted down! 😄 Like a) Schofield was anything at all like Savile; and like b) this fellow or a bunch of his fellow nerds on Twitter were going to do anything of the sort! Rotfl. 🤣 More people with a stupid keyboard warrior superhero complex! 😏👎

That's what I think. 😏😄

It’s so weird to me that people cancelled Philip Schofield and not Cheryl Cole, when they’re both groomers. Reeks of homophobia tbh. I’ve seen people act like Cheryl only met Liam once. She didn’t. He was involved with her throughout filming. And even still, imagine dating someone you even KNEW and saw as a prepubescent teen. Shits weird.

[thefrogsennaneverfound]

I’m fairly certain the guy doing the talking is a very young Philip Schofield. Am I right? X

The first ever AMAZON STRIKE in the UK is one week away - and they need your support!

Respectfully asking if I can get a bunch of notes on this so I can show my phone when I go to the rally and let them see how much support they have! ✊

And here are the Amazon strike fund details to donate if you're able:

Name - GMB Midland & East Coast

Bank - Unity Trust

Sort Code - 60-83-01

A/c No - 33010410

Ref - Amazon

I'm pretty sure I know how this works:

Like to charge, reblog to cast!

Update:

Thanks everyone who has responded to show your support, here's a link to an interview with one of the GMB union officials earlier this morning after Amazon workers walked out at 00:00.

I will update again later today when I visit the picket, but as this is doing numbers here's a link to the official donation page: stick it to Amazon and show your support for the workers! Solidarity ✊

Update 2:

Some great fighting talk from union speakers willing to take on Amazon.

Strikers told me that amazon managers and bosses have been intimidating staff & taking advantage of the fact that many workers are on zero hour contracts & many are immigrants and they speak a lot of different languages, so they've been lining the hallways to watch them as they leave shifts and lying about the union by saying the union is threatening people and beating them up, all to pressure them to stay silent and be too afraid to communicate so they don't go on strike with their colleagues. But they wont win - the strike was national news, from Philip Schofield talking about Jeff Bezos only offering a 50p raise from his billions on This Morning to major news coverage throughout the day. At one point we were live on Channel 4!

I told workers and union officials that over a thousand people from tumblr who are mostly queer/trans/nonbinary/otherwise lgbtq+ wanted them to know that they support the Amazon strikers.

One striker seemed surprised by this and I got to talk to him about how lgbtq+ people are working class too, how lgbtq+ rights are working class rights, how none of us are free from exploitation until we all are, so no wonder the gay website supports you, and he seemed to really take that on board.

All the workers were grateful for everyone who showed up and thank you all for your support - this is just the start.

Fuck Jeff Bezos

Question for the people, what the fuck does that last part mean and might I know what it constitutes!

The fact that precious baby angel Hex seems to have such a tiny fandom on Tumblr is a grave injustice. He’s an adorable nurse who only ever seems to say “Oh my god!” and his voice actor is essentially a gay porn star.

Just picked up Kendall Coyne Schofield's 2022 book As Fast as Her from the library. I'm only a few chapters in, but already it's pretty darn fun. It's written at a YA level so it's a very easy read.

Some random gems to share:

Billie Jean King wrote the introduction and she mentions that Kendall and Kevin (KCS's older brother) taught King how to shoot a hockey puck! It was in preparation for a little "See if you can get the puck through one of these little holes we put in front of the net" challenges during a Blackhawks game. And Billie Jean got it in! I had to look up a video of it and it's great because you can see Kendall is even more excited about it than Billie Jean was.

The pictures in the tipped-in photo pages are true gems. Just an amazing little collection of photographs. Little kid Kendall? A-dor-a-ble. Wedding dress Kendall? Gorgeous. Her husband lifting her up over his head? Delightful. Marie-Philip Poulin being in one? Star studded. Just a truly great collection of photos here.

No wonder she's so good, she was hard-core into sports since she was a tiny little child.

Ice has different levels of hardness? I was not aware of this. Remind me to research this more later.

Lots of other great stuff so far too. The story of the first Kendall hockey braid. Her parents signing her up for figure skating lessons and her quitting after 2 days because she wanted to play hockey like her older brother and "needed the sport" of it. Her brother and her sounding like wild balls of energy tearing around the house. Lots of sweet and fun stories from these beginning years.
