Ex-Muslims International calls for immediate release of Ibtissame Betty Lachgar currently in a Moroccan jail charged with blasphemy for posting about a t-shirt with "Allah is Lesbian"
The other story here, that's harder to tell, is the way "normative" ie "ordinary" people indulge in extremism, despite their apparently reasonable qualities more broadly. Extremism doesn't always look like Donald Trump or The Nazis. It mostly comes in the form of "reasonable" people, who have convinced themselves they don't have prejudices.
The new chair of the UK's "Equalities and Human Rights Commission" has been meeting anti transgender organizations. There is a good story here for any journalist willing to do a bit of work digging.

If a man learns to ride a motobike, and doesn’t vlog about it on youtube, does his motorbike actually make a sound?
#Philosophy #Deep #Motorbikes #motosAdded note - I just watched his video about a mass driver on the moon. He looks and sounds wasted as he’s talking, exactly like a sketchy hippie in a K-hole.
#ElonMusk #SpaceXCan journalists please describe Elon Musk as a fantasist in their headlines? The ones where he states his intentions for building bases on The Moon and Mars? Or whatever other fantastical claims he makes. At this point its clear he talks 99% proof shite, all the time.
#Musk #ElonMuskAccording to this website, whose truthiness I can’t vouch for, which is itself quoting from an FT article that is paywalled, Russia has modified some of it’s missiles in a way that allows them to evade anti-missile systems like the patriot.
