Oh no! Build-to-rent landlords don't want to operate in Glasgow because it's "too regulated." What a terrible, tragic development. The poor landlords.... https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/23717840.glasgow-200million-flats-plan-paused-get-living/

nostr:npub1yxgx8y7xnsyeheu9g5q43ec08zazl69vcjwpfhcy5wg3a6hy5rnszlwtnm Badenoch: "These proposals will ensure every new building in England is required to provide separate male and female or unisex facilities and publish guidance to explain the difference, protecting the dignity, privacy, and safety of all." Then the architects will put in only unisex- it might create the opposite of what was intended!

Lots of small cafes have only one toilet, with all the needfuls in one wee room. I was in a modern large venue last year which had an entire row of those. I suspect it's impossible to legislate for!

nostr:npub1yxgx8y7xnsyeheu9g5q43ec08zazl69vcjwpfhcy5wg3a6hy5rnszlwtnm it's hard to think of a safer space than a lockable wee room with all the facilities in it

nostr:npub1d5994pqtndd9zjz7vpj9f8t3h9y4wcgztsrnmsr4earyxrf6wd0qfw86jf I can't read the article, but I'm not sure how they can "order" building owners to have single sex loos. Lots of small cafes have only one toilet, for the use of all customers (one at a time). And I was in a modern large venue recently which had catered for a large number of people with a row of individual wee rooms with all the needfuls. This kind of thing would be berated as over regulation if it wasn't coming from the Tory party

“The man on the throne in heaven is a dark-skinned, Aramaic-speaking ‘foreigner’ who is not impressed by chants of Make America Great Again. Regardless of the outcome, [#Trump’s] campaign is forcing American Christians to grapple with scary realities.”

nostr:npub1te4y8x3aqdcy4r8mr6csfjvkxzyr32a2ktqwqka86td277davdnq70n904 all true. But the reference to Catholicism's apparent miniboom in Europe is odd. More relevant in this context would be the extreme right wing Catholic support for Trump (often overlooked in European media). Many of the very conservative Supreme Court justices are Catholic. Pope Francis has struggled with some very wing American bishops

It was fascinating to see from the last passenger timetable (1949) that the very slow train would get you to Princes Street faster than any bus or car today!

#Kirill hates #feminism. He would, wouldn't he?

ChrisO_wiki@mastodon.social - 13/ Patriarch Kirill has also publicly condemned feminism as an 'anti-Russian' force, lending the Russian Orthodox Church's authority to a prospective crackdown.
