Some days I just want to scream into the void. The systems in this world have clearly not been designed for actual use, except to mess us around and create unnecessary admin jobs to ensure everything is a lot harder than it needs to be.

Overall Wicked: For Good was fine. Jeff Goldblum butchered my favourite song, which was disappointing but expected. The costumes were worth seeing the movie for, as were the vocals of the 2 leading ladies (Cynthia Erivo & Ariana Grande). But it was Grande's eyelashes that stole the show.

Cis men have never needed an excuse to enter women's spaces to harass and abuse us. But now they are now doing so in the name of removing women who they have decided don't look 'feminine' enough. Anti-trans rhetoric and laws have not protected any woman.

Planned my day around a doctor appointment, only to realise when checking that it is not today. Feel like a nitwit, but at least I didn't miss my appointment as it's in a few days.

Gender dysphoria is not a 'mental illness', but if that's your reason for not treating trans people with basic respect, remember that 1 in 4 people experience mental health issues, so are you treating them abhorrently too?

Captain Janeway: 'We can't get involved in this quadrants politics or battles'. Also Janeway 'I will do everything in my power to bring peace and stability to this quadrant'. Starting to wonder what The Federations beliefs actually are, if it's just colonialism by another name.

I'm enjoying rewatching StarTrek Voyager, but in episode 'Tattoo' Chakotay, who is portrayed as a Native American, meets aliens that came to Earth and gave his ancestors special gifts. I've seen this repeated in many science fiction shows and can't help feel that are rooted in racism.

Anyone who thinks that being trans is a choice should spend 5 minutes reading the hate that is directed at them - no one would choose a life of pain, harassment, disbelief, being refused medical care, etc if they could live with the alternative (ie pretending to be cis).

A self-claimed 'gender critical' woman felt discriminated against for a staff member wearing a 'no terfs' badge - now she understands a fraction of how her 'beliefs' discriminate against trans people simply existing. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article... #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Happy #Halloween    to everyone who celebrates! Me and @tamaraepps.bsky.social dressed up as Enid and #WednesdayAddams, she absolutely nailed the Wednesday glare imo!

And yet they claim it's about protecting 'fairness' - by forcing a cis gender boy to play on the girls team due to a clinical error. Remind me how this hysteria around gender is protecting children. www.wdbj7.com/2025/10/19/t...

Just started reading Sunrise on the Reaping. I am enjoying it, but finding the parallels and links to the past (The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes) and the future (The Hunger Games) a little heavy handed, as if we need to be drip-fed constant reminders that all those in District 12 are connected.

A transphobic pressure group is trying to ban trans women from Hampstead women’s pond – we’re fighting back goodlawproject.org/s/4860b3 #TransRightsAreHumanRights

From now on I'm making a point to use the correct language to describe technology that is currently described as "AI." An LLM isn't AI Image generators aren't AI Machine learning isn't AI Algorithms aren't AI AI is a marketing term that obscures meaningful critique of real technologies.

If you're able, consider donating to @notaphaseorg.bsky.social - @englishsimmer.bsky.social is doing a fundraiser right now. Let's show trans people in the UK they are loved and wanted. tilt.fyi/tlIiWFjoEI #TransLivesMatter

#SciArtSeptember Day 9: vanishing • The term #MillionsMissing is used for #MECFS advocacy since most people with the disease—like myself—rarely have energy to leave their homes. My #Sciart #embroidery body map (2016) illustrates the invisible symptoms I experienced at the onset of ME/CFS.

"but we can't support trans rights, it's unpopular!" just a reminder that US approval for marriage between black and white people at the start of the civil rights movement was 4%, reaching a whopping 20% by the end of the movement it's 95% now you don't wait for popularity for a rights movement

Whether you believe it or not, 'pushing through' past your body's limitations is a form of self harm, regardless of why you are doing it.

Anyone else with M.E getting frustrated at the influx of Long Covid recovery stories, that almost always seem to focus on exercising their way out of it? While not everyone with L.C has M.E the two are often linked.

You can't talk about A.I if you don't clarify what you mean (gen A.I, A.I tech, or actual A.I), and disabled people deserve to be part of the conversation. No amount of profanity will stop me believing that.

✨NEXT STREAM ANNOUNCEMENT!✨ In a slight change to my regular schedule, I'll be streaming on Wednesday 30th July at 6pm BST! Still playing The Alters, where hopefully I'll find a way for them to not die from cloning related issues! www.twitch.tv/starlight__s... #Twitch #streamer #StarlightSophie

I finally won first place at the Finchwick fair, and then realised I'd forgotten to change the aspiration back to Country Caretaker 🙄 #sims4

The decision to suspend the whip from four MPs for opposing cuts to welfare payments for disabled people is wrong - and has to be reversed. We are supposed to be living in a democracy! Sign the petition to demand their reinstatement: actionnetwork.org/petitions/re...

It's the first few days of Disability Pride Month, and so far all I've seen is ableism from my community, my MP, and pretty much the world :( #DisabilityPrideMonth

Today I had my first experience of talking to a gay man who is extremely transphobic. I am tired of cis men telling me who I should allow in my aka women's spaces. Especially when they come at me saying trans people are taking away my rights - no, they are not.

If you've ever watched a show like The Handmaid's Tale, or read of the bravery of those who hid the persecuted throughout history, and thought 'I would resist like that', now is the time. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
