I mean, when is it not a hotbed of batshittery?

If it's open season on Santa Claus lists to the British govt women can probably do better than that.

I demand free gin and a new Strike book monthly, better weather or else , absolute veto on any decisions made ever by the cabinet that I don't particularly like, to be two inches taller and twenty years younger and my genetics repaired immediately please because being disabled is absolutely unacceptable and annoying and it's appalling no one has been around to sort this out. I also demand that grumpy middle aged women also get their own MPs and get to brief them personally having selected them only from a pool of grumpy middle aged women. And I declare an end to Tuesdays.

Seconded.
Signed, Sloppy Poodle. Since we're allowed completely crazy names now.

I wish that there was a similar letter -

Dear Supreme Court Judges,

Thank you for clarifying that sex means biological sex, for the purposes of the Equality Act.

We can now go to our places of work, study, sport and social outings, knowing that when we walk into a female toilet, we are unlikely to meet a male person there. When we join a group for women, we can expect that to include only women. When we see that 50% of board members are women, we will know that these are biological women. When we enter competitions, put ourselves forward for awards, we will know that we are competing against other women. When we seek health care, we will be able to speak clearly about women's bodies, we will be able to ask for women to perform our intimate care and we can ask to share space with other women.

We look forward to the day when we can meet openly without the threat of violence, being shouted down or having our gatherings cancelled and we hope that the government, the police, employers, the NHS, all see that our voices and our needs are worthy of respect, support and protection.

.....

where do I sign?

So I wonder if the writer of the letter, Ryan Castellucci, is going to be put on some MI5 watchlist now? What he’s written is amusing but it’s also utterly deranged and frankly frightening. He was the person who tried to take his case to have his ‘non-binary status legally recognised’ to multiple U.K. courts without success. He’s also a very skilled ‘ethical hacker’.

If the interviewers allowed RC to speak, uninterruptedly, about these demands on national TV, how powerful would that be?

I wonder if it would even be rather sobering for those people who find themselves lumped into the same ‘community’ whether they agree or not with that categorisation.

You know the game we played as children where you combine your first pet’s name with the last thing you ate?
What pet do we think liquorice eater’s willow was?

Why do trans come accross as intellectually challenged? It sounds like it’s been thrown together by a stroppy teen. They should go with the mantra; better to remain silent and be thought stupid than to speak and remove all doubt….

I fear that the blockers and wrong-sex hormones taken have impaired their cognition/executive functioning. There certainly appears to be arrested development in varying areas, without subsequent rebound catchup to uninterrupted (normal) maturing.

That is very funny - and mirrors all the mad demands perfectly 😂

He’s a brilliant writer - was the first person I came across who was prepared to write about the surge in boys identifying as girls from a non-affirming point of view.

Thanks at @ItisntOver although I do love a bit of Rick.

LassoOfTruth · 26/04/2025 22:06

Wow. This is real? It’s very funny but also scary.
Thing is, even if somehow all these demands were met, they still wouldn’t be happy. They don’t want to be. They are addicted to being victims and to their precious outrage. What would they be without it?

I just got rick-rolled. Is this actually real?

Yes, it’s real. You need to go to the original site (not the tweet) or the archive posted upthread.

This is really funny. Hope he is getting paid &recognised for his comedy. I so enjoyed that thread: not heard of nitter before but will now investigate. Is it one of the many alternatives to twitter like bluesky?

Gosh, one would expect a ‘global cybersecurity expert’ to be a be rather more mentally stable than R. Castellucci is demonstrating they/themself to be with that list of utter batshittery.

I suppose the U.K. must be desperately short of people who self identify as cybersecurity experts if we are signing off on Global Talent Visas for nonbinary folx who give conference presentations to colleagues about their own surgically remodelled non standard genitalia?

Me too! I got very confused by the comments which definitely didn't refer to Rick!
