crashed out for a bit but I’m gonna find a new place to live with the same housemate and continue to make the need to contribute rent a key factor preventing me from offing myself ✌️

sorry im grumpy right now it's just that my government wants me dead and no one gives a shit

my housemate has to find a new home anyway now. if I kill myself it won’t even mess up her housing situation……. Much To Think About

trans bathroom ban confirmed the same day I get told my housemate and I are going to have to leave our home lol lmao

renting update: getting kicked out of my house so the landlord can sell it. all the properties on the market in the area are at least £100 p/m more expensive. I have four months to find somewhere so won’t be homeless but am still losing My Home Where I Live and was hoping to stay for multiple years

john wick is short for jonathan womandick

Mainstream Respectable opinion is that people joking about a bad person's death represents a culture of cruelty, but really it represents a culture of impunity. It's a coping mechanism for watching someone do evil their whole life and never seeing consequences

being transsexual is like yeah my life-saving healthcare is under attack and my rights are being eroded and the party that's supposed to have my back doesn't care and everyone treats me like a burden at best and no one will ever love me but at least the culture is also really bad and annoying

I do know anne widdecombe was the right wing mp but for some reason I keep thinking it’s anne robinson off the weakest link who died

So not only are conversion practices not being banned, they are encouraged to be employed in school settings with children

we don’t have a lot of media organisations that are pro-trans here and one of the key ones we do has decided across all articles that we aren’t “trans”, we’re “Trans+”. the quoted expert (who I believe is a trans woman) uses ‘trans’ but the author (who I think is a cis man) goes with “Trans+”.

every woman has had her boundaries violated in some way. every woman has at least one story. probably a few. if you think you don't know any women who've been through it, you're wrong. they just don't feel comfortable sharing that with you. and they're clearly correct.

People should be able to tell the difference between "Good Books" and "Fun Reads". There are many books that are objectively NOT Good Books, but they're Fun Reads, and there are many books that are NOT Fun Reads, but are very Good Books They're not mutually exclusive, but they're different criteria

incredibly frustrating whenever i see people try to treat gendered experiences as mirrors of one another when the gender dynamics at play are just fundamentally different

I’m getting a pelvic ultrasound today where I need a full bladder for it so let’s see if I’m allowed to access a healthcare service and its bathroom without being hate crimed ✌️

are you allowed to take bereavement leave when your dad dies if he sucks and you don’t talk to him ever or do you have to be actually grieving for real

fuck you [gives your ballsack a cc-by licence]

If we want more victims to come forward we have to make it so that coming forward is worth it. For far too many victims, it’s not worth it. For far too many victims, it’s like feeding yourself into a meat grinder.

will I ever be able to have sex while sober or will the mix of dysphoria and trauma just have me permanently blocked off from the human experience who’s to say

saw a post on threads about how we should have a flinta bathroom and a bathroom for cis men and I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything more accurately demonstrate why “flinta” sucks

"pls use context clues when one of us is putting in effort to Look A Way and guess. believe it or not even if you're wrong you can just correct it." i would literally prefer that to something that's the equivalent of "well i can tell you're -some- kind of faggot gender so, "

burned my hand while trying to fill up my hot water bottle for the worst period pain I’ve had in a while, having been bleeding for over 7 total days now. being alive is not worth it this shit sucks.

Not to be autistic but stop making me do more than one big event a day!!!! I’ve had enough!!!!

As a trans person I gotta say: Nothing I am interested in celebrating less than this country.

my jaw might genuinely be unfixable. major orthodontic surgery as a closeted teenager that gave me poor results for a woman and even worse results for being a man. and it’ll be four years in braces again and another major surgery just to get it partially improved and even that might not work at all

witnessing the birth of a new all timer post is such a beautiful thing

update thought this round of period was done since it stopped saturday but nope like every overdone horror movie villain the bastard is back!

my office job pays the equivalent of £12.81 per hour, a total of 10p per hour over the legal minimum wage. but I wear business casual and a lanyard so apparently it doesn’t count to a lot of people 🙃

A penny for class discourse that is linked to your relation to capital and especially financial precarity and lack of safety net in the event of redundancy, accident or illness.

Nothing says upholding the highest standards of justice like retrying defendants until the state gets the answer it wants while monstering anyone who speaks out on their behalf then going after the barrister appointed to defend the accused for reminding jurors they can vote with their conscience

very cool to have to keep working while the government continues to declare that I'm a second class citizen

The replies to this are absolutely full of people asking for the Greens to take an explicit stance in aupport of migrants, trans people and disabled people. If they try and do some Labour-brained triangulation bullshit around these issues they're gonna get absolutely fucked.

I keep seeing this video on instagram and this is so fucking sad bro free yourself please

chance of being misgendered at a standard lgbt event: 55% chance of being misgendered at an “alt/radical queer” event: 90% chance the people misgendering me at a standard lgbt event apologising: 75% chance of the people misgendering me at an “alt/radical queer” event apologising: 5%

its far more revolutionary for trans people to participate and integrate into society than it is for us to be quirky little amusements in the queer ghetto

If you're not a fan of segregation, don't use PureGym.

being trans online is like [posts a silly joke] [sees news abt government trying to exterminate us] [like funny post by trans friend] [more news about gov wanting us dead] [repost funny joke] [trans friend shares horrible news about insurance issues/sexual violence/abusive family] [sees funny post]

Love the Q's but disappointed their only inclusion of trans men is "cis women will be confronted by the presence of trans men in their spaces." 1. It isn't true. Trans men are being barred from both spaces. 2. Trans men are ALSO at risk of violence/SA when ppl realise we're trans (links in comments)

at this point if you use the term "transmasc" interchangeably with trans MAN im going to assume you don't view any of us as real men

aims a handheld fan directly at ur pussy

partially related but i see trans men get described as "invisible" in the present when it's actually cis people playing dumb on purpose. they don't even wanna call trans men trans because that validates the fact it's not some temporary thing

The best analogy to the conversion therapy Bill would be a Bill that banned smacking children "unless the adult believed that the little blighter deserved it."

the actual question, of how visilbility has come about and who has had control of it, is important to discuss, as is pointing out that visibility without protection is just putting vulnerable people at risk however three cis queer people having that discussion about trans people feels gross

As I’ve said before, any serious attempt to ban conversion practices in Britain has to confront the fact that the NHS never stopped doing it. This draft bill not only fails, it explicitly gives “healthcare providers” permission to continue.

desperately need a hysterectomy bc why have I been on testosterone for SIX YEARS and still get periods most months??

Not to be too buzzwordy but the whole establishments “it is bizarre and unknowable why Starmer is hated” is weaponised incompetence on an industrial propaganda scale

nearly fainted, laid down for a moment to recover, fell asleep, woke up two hours later so late for work that I had to just call in sick ✌️

they should invent a me that has a man's body

The politics of the National Front do not become more moderate just because you have a lawyer read them out in front of a big flag. Quite the opposite: it’s now you that’s extreme, it’s you who are the extremists.

romantic or sexual attention is not the world’s just reward for being a good person
