JK Rowling has used her billionaire legal team to silence a Jewish woman for telling the truth about her contempt for trans victims of the Holocaust.
Scotland’s network of “freedom of speech” organisations, as per usual, have nothing to say about the use of wealth to gag critics of the wealthy.
However fast they race to condemn the LGBT+ community for saying the names of those who harm us. Statements at the ready to insist that transphobes no one wants to work with anymore must be given every possible opportunity to gain from their bigotry.
But it's not the billionaires who are being silenced, as our media breathlessly echo their every hateful proclamation.
It's journalists and activists forced to publicly humiliate themselves under the weight and the threat of billionaire legal teams or be driven into destitution.
We deserve better. Freedom of speech needs to mean something

People have made points like this before (albeit with different characters), but it's really funny that these are the same character:
But these two aren't:

The fact that Pohatu could do this makes it all the more funny that tahu sent LEWA back to Metru Nui when they found Roodaka
All good scientists need to be able to admit when they were wrong; be that in their datasets, methods or conclusions. Ko-Matoran Scholars are no exception to this.
In this edition of the Knowledge Tower, we address a couple of my mistakes.

Antroz and his Destral Cycle
“The lights in the lower cabin switched on, to reveal Antroz’s bounty in all its glory. It had been acquired in a skirmish with the Dark Hunters a few weeks prior, and someone had been smart enough to let him know about it.
He felt eagerness bubble within him as he examined it.
The Destral Cycle, as some unimaginative underling had deigned to dub it, was a marvelous sight to behold for Antroz (and likely very few others). The craft had a wide, spoked wheel on the front of it. There were jet engines mounted to the back. It had a brutish simplicity about it that tickled Antroz. The Skakdi had a penchant for making loud, clunky machines. This one was clearly an attempt to break that mold. Antroz lifted the compartment door in the front end of the vehicle. An energy core rested in there, dormant. He reached in, making sure it was secure. Then he let a jolt of electricity loose from his hand, sending it directly into the core. Immediately, it lit up as energy coursed through it. The bike sprung to life, whirring and roaring like a Kikanalo. Antroz smiled.”
Small taste of something I’m writing to go along with this.

Tarenax, Warlord
After the six Kingdoms fell, this former special operations commander of Mantax’s army Re-established himself as a mercenary contractor.
His true goals are more lofty than this, however. He hopes to some day pick up where Mantax left off, and overthrow the great spirit.
