We're at the "JK Rowling is personally funding litigation to try and destroy AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL" stage of rabid UK terf brain.
Screenshot via Alejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net on bluesky
Tldr Amnesty International, global human rights organisation, published a report called 'A growing threat: the anti-rights movement in the UK'. In it is detailed, amongst others, a whole bunch of transphobic groups and organisations, including Beira's Place, JK Rowling's trans exclusionary sexual violence support service. JK Rowling threw a shit fit and got Amnesty to take the report down by threatening libel. This was obviously not enough, because you can't appease a fascist, so now she's going to bankroll a bunch of lawsuits anyway through the JK Rowling Women's Fund.*
You can read an archived version of the report here, please save it and share it.
*Not so friendly reminder there is no way to engage in the wizard books without enabling this shit.
Not the most intense workout but definitely the cutest.

In case anyone hasn't heard, the cyclospora outbreak affecting tons of people in the US right now is coming from Taylor Farms produce. Best to stay away from bagged lettuce and prepared salads completely right now, but especially the ones mentioned in the screenshot:
Taylor Farms
Earthbound Farms
Little Salad Bar (Aldi)
Marketside (Walmart)
Kroger House Brand
Target private label greens
Costco salads and greens etc
Trader Joe's chopped salad kits and fresh produce
Fast food: McDonalds, Taco Bell, (Yum! Brands), Chipotle, Subway, Pizza Hut, KFC, Olive Garden, Top Golf, Red Lobster, Burger King, etc.
This is not the first time I've heard about a Taylor Farms foodborne illness outbreak. I stopped eating their salads after reading a description of the conditions in their facilities. Doesn't sound like they've improved anything.
We need a fully funded and staffed FDA, and regulations with teeth - and that's exactly what we don't have under Trump. To make things worse, the CDC is no longer tracking these outbreaks. We're on our own.
It’s difficult to keep asking for help, but it’s even harder to stay silent.
We’ve been trying to rebuild our lives step by step after losing so much 🏠💔
Nothing is easy anymore, and even the simplest things feel heavy when you’re carrying this much uncertainty.
I’m trying to continue my education while also being there for my family, but some days it feels like everything is slipping out of my hands.
This campaign is not just support — it’s our way forward.
Without it, we feel stuck, unable to move toward something better.
If you’re reading this, please don’t overlook our story.
Even the smallest support can help us take one more step toward stability 🙏🤍

Hello please donate to Mo'men Gherbawi if you can.
Campaign Information:
Mo'men Gherbawi is a palestinian man from Gaza.
He dreamed of a bright future after high school, but instead of celebrating his success, he found himself running from bombs and destruction, just trying to survive.
His Life Changed in an Instant!
Their home was destroyed in the bombing, leaving them with nowhere to return to.
His older brother lost his job after the occupation wiped out the area where he worked.
His school and his sister’s university turned into shelters for displaced families, leaving no classrooms for students.
They spent everything they had just to escape and make it to Egypt after six months of horror.
How Did They Survive?
They fled multiple times under bombs and gunfire, carrying what little they had in plastic bags, running through rubble and smoke, never knowing if they'd survive.
Their last stop was Rafah, which is now under siege, where they faced hunger, illness, and fear until they finally made it out.
His father suffers from severe back problems, making him unable to work, and his medical treatment is extremely expensive.
Despite Everything, Mo'men Still Has a Dream!
He wants to go to university and build a future, to help his family get back on their feet. But today, they have no home, no income, and no way to start over.
Why They Need Your Help:
"I’m managing this fundraiser on behalf of my family.
Since GoFundMe doesn’t support the country we currently reside in, the donations are being received through a trusted family friend in the UK, Hassan Aloul. " - Campaign Organiser
The organsier is helping the family by withdrawing the funds into their bank account and coordinating them directly to distribute the funds for urgent needs such as rent, medical treatment, and education expenses.
All donations will be used to:
Rent a home in Egypt
Cover basic living expenses like food, clothing, and medicine
Pay for Mo'mens father’s urgent medical treatment
Support his university education so he can build a better future
They are committed to using every donation responsibly and transparently.
You Can Be the Reason Their Life Changes!
Every pound (£) can be a new beginning for us – helping with rent, father’s treatment, and mo'mens education.
"Don’t leave us alone—donate or share my story.
Even the smallest contribution can make a huge difference.
Thank you to everyone who helps. You are my hope for a better tomorrow!" - Mo'men Gherbawi
Lost Everything, but I Haven’t Lost Hope!
I am Mo’men Gherbawi,… Momen gherbawi needs your support for Mo’men Lost Everything in Gaza—H
Summary: How would our story unfold with Barret as its guiding hand? If the conflict with Shinra continued center-stage, with Sephiroth as just another symptom of its unchecked greed? AVALANCHE was always the catalyst. Now they’ll see things through to the end.

We are now on our way to the Temple~ I'm so exited.

I pull up my slide show. The first slide says “I do not want to financially support the Church of the Latter Day Saints in any way”. There are murmurs of agreement and approval from the room
Next slide. “Brandon Sanderson is a member of the LDS”. The muttering has changed tone
“It’s not a very big amount of money though.” Someone in the audience pipes up. “His cut is only a small fraction of the cost of the book, and then-“ my next slide shows an income breakdown, it is titled ‘a small fraction of $10,000,000 is still a big number’
I’m sweating. The following slides explain tithing rules. The vibe of the room has shifted. I start to doubt I’m getting out of here alive
#huh#i wonder how much of his success is due to the support of the mormon church#that's the sort of grassroots i fluence they'd be able to pull off#or just church leaders 'asking' people to buy his books till he becomes a bestseller#and well once you do that a few times money prints itself a bit
Actually this is a big part of why you see so many successful mormon authors! Not necessarily people being deliberately pressured to buy the books, I've never heard of that happening, but there's a big writing culture and it's generally easier for mormons to get published in the first place because of their accessible English university classes and their internal book distribution network giving many authors a leg up. It's worth noting that while I'm unaware of any deliberate attempts to game bestseller lists like these tags imply, simply being mormon authors helps sell books to other mormons, because mormons tend to be very wary about reading inappropriate content. A mormon picking out a book for themselves, or especially picking out a book for their children, will likely favour a book available through their mormon bookstore or a book written by a mormon in a bookshop, because they know that the material in the book will be appropriate and morally acceptable. (That or Disney, which is al,so apparently very popular among mormons.) Since mormons tend to have a strong reading and writing culture, this captive audience certainly isn't nothing.
When it comes to stuff like racism, sexism, homophobia, etc, I’ve found it’s usually way better to think to yourself ‘I don’t want to be’ than ‘I’m not’.
I.e. if someone goes ‘that thing you just did is ableist’, instead of going ‘I’m not ableist, I don’t hate disabled people!’ it’s usually a lot better to go ‘I don’t want to be ableist, I should rethink what I’m doing/saying/etc in light of that fact’. Because that shifts your thinking so rather than jumping straight into denial and attempts to defend your character, you’re instead more inclined to look at how your actions could be misrepresenting your intentions. Or whether you’ve overlooked something, been callous, or acted in ignorance.
Namaygoosisagagun First Nation/Collins has burned to the ground. The entire community is nothing but ashes after being quickly consumed by wildfires. They did not have any support from emergency services, and no one offered aid. The community saved themselves by escaping into boats because no one came.
Mishkeegogamang and Cat Lake have lost power. Families are ending up in shelters with nothing. Armstrong, Lac La Croix, Whitesand, Gull Bay, Lac des Mille Lacs are currently in the fires path and all members are being evacuated.
All this loss, all this devastation, and it was entirely preventable.
After steadily underfunding wildland firefighting and purposefully excluding Indigenous wildland firefighters and Indigenous wildfire organizations from wildfire operations, firefighter training, decisionmaking, and resource exchanges, in 2025, Doug Ford slashed the forest firefighting budget.
It's hard to ignore his decision to cut funding and leave us out of adequate fire training (even though we've lived with forest fires for thousands of years—far longer than settlers have been in Canada—and made sure fires like the ones we're all seeing today were prevented through kinisitotēn) when, despite making up less than 5% of the population, we account for 42% percent of all wildfire evacuations in Canada.
And when we are successfully evacuated, we face discrimination and racism—like Kashechewan—because it's always been easier to blame us than it is to blame the true culprit: denialism, corportate greed, and colonization.
The people of Collins and every other impacted community deserve better.
Right now, the AFN is currently accepting donations to help Collins First Nation. If you're able to, please consider donating.
ONWA (Ontario Native Women's Association) is another great place to donate to. They have outreach vans going to motels and inns and offering food, water, resources, and cultural support to those impacted by the wildfires.
Other places to consider donating to are Mikinakoos Emergency Fund, Red Cross, True North Aid, Indigenous Climate Action. You can also send donations directly to Whitesand First Nation via e-transfer ([email protected]) and they request that you add your full name in the e-transfer comment section to receive a tax receipt.
*Before sending money, verify that the appeal appears on an official First Nation, Tribal Council or registered charity channel.
If you can't offer financial support, please consider donating items of need. Moontime Connections is currently accepting drop-off donations. If you live in the Thunder Bay area, Namaygoosisagagun Health Office is also taking in donations! They can also bemailed to Superior Inn Hotel & Conference Centre at 555 West Arthur Street, Thunder Bay, ON, P7E 5P8.
Announced the end of all physical PS game releases
While simultaneously announcing the end of two of their console game stores — ensuring multiple games will die forever
Declared that they are wholly dedicated to (A) leveraging A.I. when making games and (B) creating live-service games above all other game types
Announced that if you bought any movies through their PlayStation Store, over 550 of them will soon be deleted from all users' libraries — with no restitution offered of any kind
Gamers, it is time — to paraphrase Robert Vann — to turn Sony's picture to the wall. Any one of these insults would be bad, and taken alone? Maybe it could be swallowed. But this is an ongoing campaign of disdain towards customers, with each declaration worse than the last.
PlayStation does not deserve your patronage any longer. The PS6 must fail. Leave them behind.

The idea of “but everyone knows that” needs to stop.
I saw a post about someone chiding Millennials for not knowing about JKRowlings transphobia, and asking how it is at all possible that people can exist in the world and the internet and, you know, not know.
Which I mean, I get. It is so present in so many of my online spaces that it seems astounding that someone could simply be ignorant! It feels impossible!
But let me tell you a story:
I went on a girls trip with a bunch of friends. All of us are rather incredibly liberal and all of us are incredibly online.
One girl would not stop talking about Harry Potter.
At one point, another girl asked her why she was ok with supporting it, and she had no real clue that JK Rowling was at all transphobic. She had heard that she likes to support Lesbian causes and thought “oh ok cool!” And that was it. She was AGOG with the news and rather horrified.
I must once again emphasize that she was an incredibly online person. She’s a foodie and a restaurant blogger.
Later in the trip we were picking restaurants and I suggested one I found on Google, and she gasped at me. Actually gasped, asking how I could ever be okay picking that one.
The shock must’ve been on my face, because she then told me all of the shitty things that restaurateur does. He abuses staff. Underpays them. Fires them on a whim. Is known for being one of the worst people to his employees in the entire restaurant business on this coast.
And she was so shocked I had never heard of this. Because in her mind, I was just as online as her. And in her online world, EVERYONE knew about this guy.
So I think the moral of this story is: always approach the other person with some empathy. Even online people, even people you think MUST know about how bad people are, may not have heard. It may truly be just them being on a different sphere of the internet than you.
So be gentle, be kind when letting people know they might not have heard about the cancellation of XYZ person. Don’t assume that everyone knows all the same info as you.
By all means, let them know so they can make informed decisions, but being kind will go a lot further than attacking them for some info they might not know yet.
