I am angered that three striking primary school cleaners from Kinsley have been sacked - Jeremy Corbyn

labourpress

Jeremy Corbyn MP, Leader of the Labour Party, commenting on the sacking of three cleaners from Kinsley primary school who had been on strike, said:

“I am angered that three striking primary school cleaners from Kinsley have been sacked. When I met them, they explained how their wages were cut following the outsourcing of their contracts to a private company.

“Outsourcing is bad for our public services and workers. The cleaners’ jobs must be brought back in-house with fair pay and conditions.

“The race to the bottom in wages and working conditions faced by huge numbers of workers right across Britain is a national disgrace and Labour would put a stop to it.”

I think something a lot of cis perisex Discworld fans don’t understand is that Cheery is canonically, textually a trans woman by definition. A trans person is, quite simply, someone who identifies as a different gender to the one they were assigned at birth. Cheery was basically assigned Dwarf, but she identifies as a woman. Her physical anatomy is irrelevant. Maybe it’s in line with a human idea of a cis woman, maybe it’s not. The point is, she wasn’t assigned female at birth. She identifies as female. Therefore, she is a trans woman.

A bird explaining to a hedgehog crossing so it doesn’t die.

!!! ok but that’s legitimately what it’s doing!! That’s a corvid right there (looks like a hooded crow, to be precise), which means it’s intelligent enough to recognize, a) cars are dangerous and streets should be treated with a certain degree of caution, b) this car’s slowing down for them–cars do that sometimes–which means they’re not in imminent danger, so it doesn’t have to fly away just yet, c) that hedgehog’s still gonna get killed if it doesn’t MOVE, FAST (cars can change speed very quickly and the hedgehog’s still in the way), and almost certainly also d) if the bird does nothing it gets a free lunch.

Y’all, Y’ALL. This bird is consciously deciding to put itself in danger in order to save the life of a very stupid creature. A creature which, if the bird did nothing, could be free food. 

i can’t - look if you follow me you know I have a thing for corvids, but this is - like!!! People are always saying “ah yes they have sub-human intelligence and don’t consider anything that isn’t immediately necessary for their own survival/pleasure,” but! Whether or not it can do philosophy, this crow is clearly demonstrating compassion. Even if it’s just the kind of compassion a toddler shows to a snail, a social creature that instinctively recognizes the potential for emotion in other beings, that’s still huge and cool and important and corvids!!! are! neat!!!
