Ricky Gervais

Bad Bunny at the Grammys: “We’re not savage, we’re not animals, we’re not aliens. We are humans and we are Americans.”

Ricky Gervais, paraphrased: “Shut up.”


I hate Ricky Gervais. The main reason why is too painful to go into on a fairly throwaway post but I hate him so much it hurts. “You’re in no position to lecture the public about anything” but it’s okay for him to lecture people whose kin are being disappeared off the streets. Okay for him knowing his existence is not political. Okay for him to give political speeches, because giving a speech about how people of colour shouldn’t talk ‘politics’ is as political as you can get. I don’t have a pithy comment to end this with, I just hate him, so fucking much.

Graham Linehan thinks women should not vote

I wondered what the British TERFs had to say about Renee Nicole Good, a bi woman shot down by ICE in broad daylight. They claim to be defenders of LGB women so they must be rightly furious, right?

I went to Graham Linehan’s page.

Oh, but it got worse. He reposted a tweet (with an ableist slur in the title) calling for women in America to be stripped of their right to vote.


I feel like I’m screaming into a void when I see people like Jonathan Ross (not the Jonathan Ross who killed Renee Good, the wildly popular British TV personality) and Richard Ayoade praise Linehan. It revolts me that these men coddle each other. Linehan is a very clear danger to women. His hatred for us is horrifying. What is it going to take for the British media to finally label him as the dangerous, disgusting misogynist he is, and how many women will he hurt before that happens?

ICE

There is a thread on r/AskReddit right now titled, “People who have had a direct run-in with ICE, or know a friend or family member who has been detained or deported, what is the one thing you want the average American to hear about that experience?”

It is full of very distressing stories about the awful place America is in now. Here’s some of them I screenshotted, because I think they need to be both archived and spread around.


Here’s a headline from the UK today:


What has happened to America? What will happen to my own country?

I live in Chicagoland and have family friends who are brown and undocumented. It’s not good here.

I want to specify that the US government ICE agents rapelled from Blackhawk helicopters to take over an apartment building, breaking open apartment doors in the middle of the night to drag barely-clad residents from their homes and detain everyone in UHaul trucks with the children zip-tied to each other. Regardless of citizenship.

There was too much traffic today, and an ICE agent deployed a tear gas canister in traffic in response.

This is not normal.

From the very bottom of my heart: what the ACTUAL FUCK

It’s not even near me yet, but where I live there’s lots of brown folks so they’ll come.

This is surreal. We’re being attacked by the United States.

ICE Agents Rappel From Black Hawk Helicopters Into Chicago for Major Raid” – MSN, published October 1st, 2025

Most mainstream media is barely covering it.

I genuinely wish I were surprised by that.

Spread this far and wide – there’s no paywall.
