Christmas has come early for the old lady.... She's off to the Land Rover hospital for a new chassis and bulkhead, wiring, brake and fuel lines, suspension and a 1" lift. It's mildly annoying that the head gasket decided it was time to go on permanent holiday as we drove to the hospital. 🙄

I imagine she has a huge shock coming 🤣 Equality boss expects people to 'follow rules' over single-sex spaces - BBC News share.google/xDQjoZedxLUd...

It's time for the annual rewatch.

Woman (swimmer).......(For clarity, not Riley Gaines or Sharrrrron Davies)

Spent the afternoon tidying the outside of the house, following the removal of scaffolding that has surrounded it since June, when we began putting a new roof on the Barn I'm now settled into a hot bath with a podcast and a large Bailey's to hand, and not moving for at least an hour.

Days ago, all the Scottish papers hailed a massive victory for Peggie when it was partial. Today they're pretending she lost and must appeal. When the Supreme Court decision was questioned, it was a threat to the judiciary. Now it's apparently a moral obligation. Same voices, same loud megaphones.

Farage just said “I didn’t wear a mask last time and I won’t wear them this time. This is nonsense.” Here he is, not only wearing a mask, but also getting vaccinated…

Wasn't Naomi Cunningham meant to do some sort of press release today? @goodlawproject.bsky.social

Can't help but think that 'thee spressoroom' sounds like an insult that should be delivered with a West Yorkshire accent.

When your fingers are co-opted by the cat as pillows

Thoughts and prayers for those who stand with Sandie Peggie. /s

"Friends" Right-o 😉

A Labour government passed the Equality Act. A Labour government was in power when the Supreme Court interpreted it to not mean what ministers at the time were clear it was intended to mean. The Labour government response should have been to legislate to fix it. Not doing so was a cowardly betrayal.

Let's start an over 30 selfie thread ✨ [Redacted] 🎉

Introduce yourself with five concerts you've seen: Lou Reed Patti Smith Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Page and Plant Alabama 3

I wonder how Kishwer Falkners leaving drinks are going tonight at the #EHRC. Probably a bit subdued?

I've spent the day in Wells next the Sea, a place I dearly love, and found this sign in a shop window. I have never seen *anything* that is more Norfolkian than this.

Ten years

Unlike glinner I too do not have a criminal record. Also unlike Glinner, my wife hasn't left me because I'm obsessed with a minority group.

It's #caturday morning, and we're all having a lazy start to the weekend

🕯 Today we pause to remember the trans people whose lives were taken by violence this year. Those lost to hatred, and those lost to the unbearable weight of living in a world that too often refuses to see their worth. We hold every name and every story in our hearts. #TDOR

Labour policy is being celebrated by Tommy Robinson. That's it. That's all you ever need to say to explain who Labour are.

17 years to the day since we got married, and we're living it large in a Vermouth bar in Madrid. And I still have no idea what her natural hair colour might be 🤣

Sorry, am I genuinely being asked to believe that the BBC is biased in favour of trans people? I cannot remember the last time a trans person was given a voice on the BBC. It's as if they don't exist. They are talked about on the BBC, not talked to. This entire debate is just fucking stupid.

Gosh, Trump wasn't telling fibs about this "Transgender for all" thing, was he? 🤣

Learned something new: stained glass frame making

You'll never believe what I've found, @ruthkapelus.bsky.social !

Pausing Research Proposal writing for 7-and-a-bit minutes when a forgotten banger hits the background soundtrack.

The EHRC has ditched its 'interim update'. But their draft Code of Practice is a bigger threat than ever. Here's what we need to do now 🧵

I'm Carly, and my pronouns are she/her #PronounsDay

Seems like this might be a bit of meat @whatthetrans.com ?

#UK #Politics @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social seems to be intent to bend the rules as far as she can. In her latest move to obfuscate the origin of campaign funds, she created Bridget Phillipson Campaigns Ltd. of which MP Emma Foody is majority shareholder and sole director. The company was established

Trans History Week is looking for feedback…

If you can, please fill this out. It’s for trans/gender-diverse people under 18 +/or parents/carers/family/friends. Its part of the larger research project into CYP GI care that includes the PB trial. (It’s the “priority setting” partnership mentioned here: www.england.nhs.uk/commissionin...)

Done!

We are at Labour conference, telling members about the impact of the proposed bathroom ban. It would devastate trans people’s lives, create unworkable business challenges, and alienate voters. This would be Labour’s legacy on LGBT+ rights for a generation. But it’s not too late for them to stop it.

Post you from a different era. 1991, late teens. Black leather jeans, black t-shirt, black leather jacket. I try not to wear very much black, these days.

One of my favourite days; Robert Plant releases a new album.

Grateful to have been nominated for the Trans In The City Awards 2025. If you want to say something about my work for the trans community, or nominate someone else, you can do so at: transinthecity.co.uk/awards

This has got to me a bit today so here we go. No Rebecca we can't have a calm discussion for the way forward when one side's intention is to eliminate us, secondly the heat is coming from one side, it's the side accusing trans people of being paedophiles, rapists, cheats and predators. 1/26

I've got a #caturday sofa buddy, but she's not as interested in the F1 qualifying as I am.

🚨 Deadline TOMORROW If your business supports inclusion – this is your last chance to sign our open letter to government. Stand against forced trans exclusion. Sign here: www.transsolidarityalliance.com/businesses-o...

Do you think Kier Starmer believes that a Government stripping rights to privacy from trans people and socially segregating them ISN'T political violence?

to my mind the woman who dies of sepsis because of antiabortion laws, or the person who dies because they can't afford insulin -- these are just as much victims of political violence as the man shot through the throat while making a racist speech

I will never get over how he said Nothing when Brianna Ghey was murdered
