Elon Musk is so committed to free speech that you can create sexual abuse material featuring children but can't say the word 'cis'

Thanks as ever @philippaeast.bsky.social for your support. This a bit my fault as when I’ve attended protests and vigils I’ve refused to record / be recorded as I’m there to protest or mourn not film, don’t think I’m a particularly easy subject 🤦‍♀️

“This really is the Dutch 18th century equivalent of the sports direct mug” 🤣 Loving this collab with the V&A and @roseschmits.bsky.social youtu.be/1Js3LV1KZ7M?...

Decided to add some more personality to my office / backdrop, this is Lewis’s 1st WC McLaren car, his 2nd WC and 1st for Mercedes and his 7th and last WC with Mercedes in 1:18 scale. #f1 #minichamps

Further proof that the Online Safety Act was never about protection, and always about control. Well done on stopping LGBTQ+ kids from accessing online support groups I guess, Keir.

Me, entering 2016, versus me, entering 2026:

Pleased with that, I do think plugin hybrids have a place in the transition to EV’s Funny that my average trip time is 25 mins as that’s how long it takes to get to my dance class so I guess that’s where most of my mileage comes from.

I just think it's a bit grandiose calling it trans ideology when the only discernable unifying goals are to not be killed or deprived of medicine and to be left alone to hyperfixate on their special interests.

Heading into 26 in agony after my toddler figured out how to do a roly poly and said “mummy do it” and like a moron I did one forgetting I’m 45, my back and ribs may never recover 💀

Wishing everyone a joyful 2026

A little bit of #transjoy My little one has started playing with my hair as she falls asleep, it’s a comfort thing for her but it’s so damn cute ❤️

I need people to understand the dog whistle here is they want to kill trans people. “But Soph isn’t that extreme?” No, when they say trans ideology they mean trans people, how do you eliminate us? By removing our healthcare and committing us to conversion therapy which kills.

I need your help to reach beyond SM to find the parents quietly supporting their trans offspring, heads down, staying safe and anonymous. I need them to sign the Transparent Action pledge. Growing our numbers will show Streeting supportive parents outnumber the transphobes. Help me find them.

For the last month I’ve been wondering why my Twinkly Christmas lights kept turning Orange on both the Christmas Tree and outside lights. I presumed orange was an error. Nope, turns out it was SignalRGB from my computer taking over every time I turned it on, it had discovered them on the network 🤦‍♀️

Our little one is 2 1/2 for Christmas this year, it’s the first year she’s kind of aware of Santa and what’s going on. I have to say paying the magic forward is a lot of work but tiptoeing around the house late on Christmas Eve laying out all the presents to make the day special is a great feeling

I swear to god if he does this just to ruin our Christmas and fill us with anxiety all over the festive season I’ll do everything in my power to end his political career and make sure he faces trial for the deaths he’s caused.

I wanted to highlight this for my trans siblings, the social media and the media in general amplify all the worst anti trans voices, the general public are much more supportive of us than we realise, Yes this is dropping compared to 10 years ago but it's not as bad as we ourselves fear.

A rare chance for people to tell an MP exactly how things are in Leeds, usually these things are all in London.

If Labour wanted to know why it is tanking electorally trans rights would be a great case study. Not because people vote on trans rights; most don't. But because everyone - both the JKRs who hate trans people and trans people and their allies - can sniff out Labour's position as insincere bullshit.

I guess it’s war you want then Mary, we beat Faulkner and her loons we’ll bet you, we won’t comply, we won’t accept a rollback of our rights.

Does anyone know what’s with all the Russia v UK WWW3 doom news stories atm, they’ve taken a noticeable uptick in recent days, given it’s highly unlikely Russia would attack the UK or Europe I figured we’re being distracted from something?

Indeed if this were the other way around he’d be enjoying front page interviews in all the papers and doing a circuits of all the news rooms.

Remember the jokers that tried to tell you the BBC had a pro trans bias.

Streeting has already interfered by careful selection of “researchers” associated with a designated anti-trans hate group to carry out an unethical and pseudoscientific “trial” designed to get the result he wants.

🧵🧵🧵 When @rivkahbrown.bsky.social Published her story in Novara Media evidencing that Hilary Cass was already anti-trans before the Cass Review, I was intrigued by the fact that Cass hadn't tried to sue her or Novara. But if this report by @sophiemolly.co.uk is true, and she is advising on... 1/4

So they’re going to appeal the “victory” they had, this will rob further funds from the NHS and the patients it treats. Notice the appropriation of the suffragette colours despite them also suing the Fawcett Society

People don't believe me when I tell them just how infiltrated health and equalities are in the govt and yet they literally proudly shout it from the rooftop.

Yet another person elevated to the House of Lords for being transphobic? The most undemocratic route to power and prestige… …again.

One for @hedgehogsafety.bsky.social @r-p-coltrane.bsky.social‬ ❤️

This was a good episode, Shon was always going to be a good guest and Zack gives her plenty of time to talk, I hope he takes on her advice. I hope non trans people listen and learn to this episode.

If you’re tired of explaining yourself and the misreporting of the Peggie tribunal to your lazy and ignorant friends save your energy and send them this. open.substack.com/pub/ajustsoc...

Here's my piece on the conclusions of the Sandy Peggie tribunal and all the unnecessary misery that arose from it. bylines.scot/society/beth... 🏳️‍⚧️👩‍⚖️

Sky News doing their best to distort reality and lobby government too. I have to confess as a trans person it’s so scary to see near the entire media engaged in blatant lying and trying to form false narratives and not just behind opinion pieces. We need regulation overhaul

HR departments countrywide need to start treating gendercrit employees as potentially hostile. As soon as you are required to interact with one, you dust off the rulebook, you dot every eye and cross every t, and you assume bad faith at every turn. They are a threat to every organisation.

I’m angry about a lot of things but nothing makes me more angry at how much this frivolous lawfare is costing NHS Fife in time and money. Money that should be going to patients treatments.

"We put all these barriers to the safe route for these patients and they bypassed them!" There's a history of this happening, all trans care has a far too high barrier to entry, people have been DIY'ing for decades.

The new episode of Philosophy Tube is about having kids in an uncertain world (Also it contains a review of Castration Movie Part 1, which rocks) www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3nf...

This wouldn’t be out of place in the onion, what on earth has happened to the UK where a Labour government wants to weaken protections against torture? also ask yourself this will they only restrain themselves to other people or could it happen to you?

see this, repost with your model of positive masculinity.

Baroness Faulkner in the Times reveals that she wants to criminalise trans people is wild. Even in her examples? There are exceptions! The whole thing is built on nonsense and misunderstanding how the law works.

I think Transactual put it best (in reference to the girl guides) and now Labour too: "There is no problem being solved here, only harm being done." All to appease the right, who hate them anyway - shame on them.

It’s a stain that will remain on Labour forever that they extended her tenure and continued to try and work with her. Apply this to any other group and see how absurd it seems? We do have rights, human rights, rights protected in many laws.

I prey Julia Donaldson doesn’t come out as a TERF, some of my greatest joy is reading her books to my little one at bedtime and listening to her laugh at the kids in The Smeds and Smoos film

there's nothing in the supreme court ruling that says you have to exclude trans women from women's spaces or orgs or whatever, so appeasing a billionaire bigot does seem to be what's going on here.

We're watching the wholesale burning of every scrap of dignity afforded to trans people in the UK, their rights, their medical services, their employment, their place within society, their bodily functions. It is a disgrace, and a disgusting stain on the government and media of this country.

What boils my piss about this is that GG have been trans inclusive for near / over a decade with no issues, this is purely a bunch of grown adults bullying trans kids.

The Girl Guide announcement. What can I say? I’m imagining if it was my child - the conversations and explanations, the apologies, “I’m sorry, so sorry,” trying to comfort but feeling a failure because I couldn’t protect her from GC hate. And the child and parents - a little bit more broken.

“If you can’t afford the deposit on a house then stop buying new iPhones and takeaway coffees.” “Wait not like that”

They’re terrified we might get some funds to fight back!
