I'm just trying to be a little bit more optimistic about things, I feel like we've had some real progression in the last decade. My workplace has tampons in the men's toilets which would have seemed inconceivable ten years ago. Everyone I know has been accepting of my friends that transitioned, even ones that vote Tory. I guess people on the internet just really want to be pessimistic and cry about how bad everything is. I'll stop arguing here, feel free to continue the doom and gloom.

I'm familiar, a good friend of mine is going through it at the moment. I'm not saying it's perfect, I'm saying we don't deserve the name "terf island" when we're ranked 15th in the world for trans rights.

Care to elaborate on those reasons? And I don't want to hear about JK Rowling. Every country has loud twats on twitter.

I was recently behind a woman in the queue at a hardware shop, asking for advice because her landlord had painted white gloss on the inside of her bath

What about your home WiFi ssid and password? I have emojis in mine and it causes all sorts of problems. Worth it.

Do you have those letters in your codebases, phlubba?

I watch NFL from the UK where none of this applies, you can get a subscription service that covers all games. I went to my friend's house to watch it once, but his TV didn't have the right app so I went to cast it from my phone. The app blocked casting. Maybe watch it from a laptop with HDMI? Also didn't work.

We pirate now.

Casually everybody will obviously carry on saying "accident" for now, but I wonder how fast it will filter down from official language to every day language. Would be interesting to watch the trend over the next few decades. Like how people still say "road tax".
