beige.party/@Lana/115192416376… Lana@beige.party - So it turns out there were zero trans or LGBTQ symbols, words, phrases, or ideologies engraved on the bullets or casings. Quelle surprise.
What was actually engraved could best be described as deeply unfunny 4chan homophobic memes, and a smattering of references to groyper in-joke humor.
- "Notices bulges OwO what's this?"
- A furry/anime meme that has circulated online for decades.
- "Hey fascist! Catch! ↑ → ↓↓↓"
- A reference to the game Helldivers, used to drop the 500kg bomb
- "O bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao"
- An old Italian anti-fascist folk song
- "If you read this you are gay lmao"
- Literally just a homophobic insult
In other words, those words that they didn't want you to know, the words which were reported widely as "transgender ideology" and "transgender symbols" were in actuality just some dumb homophobic teenage boy shit and "fuck fascists".

mastodon.scot/@FaithfullJohn/1… FaithfullJohn@mastodon.scot - Scottish meteorite!
Pals at Glasgow Uni have identified area between Loch Treig and Loch Ericht as the likely fall zone. A huge area of mountainous ground. Scotland must be one of the worst places to recover meteorite falls - lots of vegetation, especially bogs, big areas with no population, wet weather etc. The last one recovered was in 1917, although dozens of sizable ones must have fallen since.
