Look what arrived! 😍

And let me be clear -- I wish on JK Rowling everything that she wishes upon trans people.

I hope Rowling stubs her toe every day for the rest of her life

It seems it didn't take long for Bluesky to let us down. I blame JK Rowling for so much of the hate in the world right now. reinstate @jessiegender #reinstatejessie #transrights #transrightsarehumanrights #feminism

What the fuck @bsky.app You’re meant to be better than the other place. Do better. Reinstate @jessiegender.

Loved this book and happy to provide a review for @dougiekp.bsky.social with Spectrum Books Find it here: www.amazon.com/Grown-Ups-Do... Noted bias: Ocean is my favorite!

@spectrum-books.com I kind of wonder what I'm going to pull out of my lunch bag each day when I get to the hospital. My hubby has been very busy. After thirty odd years, he can still bring a smile to my face. ❤️🏳️‍🌈❤️🏳️‍🌈❤️ #writersky #writingcommunity #authorsofsky #booksky #WritingBlueSky
