A concrete thing every UK person who cares about trans rights can do right now: 1. Email a link of this report to your MP, with highlights from the executive summary in your email. Ask them what it means for your constituency and their party - highlight trans people's legally mandated human rights

I was reminded of this gorgeous article by @miamingus.bsky.social today. Its a short read but it describes everything I'm always reaching for, and often missing, in life as a disabled person leavingevidence.wordpress.com/2011/05/05/a...

The Equality and Human Rights Commission's six-week consultation into its guidance on how to implement the supreme court's ruling on gender closed last night - and had *25,825* responses, the EHRC says.

Delighted to announce that I will soon be the Executive Producer at Interplay Theatre, Leeds! Really excited to get stuck back into producing and programming a small venue, especially one focussed on families and learning disabled people!

My attempt to be helpful (while also carrying this out as an experiment myself) Anyone who needs a change should fill out form DS-5504, 2009-2017.state.gov/documents/or... It's free (unless you need it expedited) but it'll probably be slow. I'm filling mine out today and will update throughout

Happy Pride Month everyone!

At the cinema for Doctor Who because I am a giant nerd 💙💙

Great summary of the difference between successful and unsuccessful applications for Immersive Arts' first funding round (which I didn't apply to!). At the £20k and £50k levels, what stands out is a need for specificity, timeliness, and having a really good team in place.

I'm watching the Parliamentary debate about the self-ID e-petition and my JAW IS ON THE FLOOR. The MPs speaking are hitting ALL the key pro-trans talking points: - transphobic bias in EHRC - nightmare of SC ruling - toilet bans are awful - must hear trans voices - IGLA rainbow map 1/

Hey friends! I'm ISO a TTRPG layout designer for an ambitious project later this year. BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ prioritized, must be okay with psychological horror elements/monsters. I normally do my layouts myself, but this is something that I want someone dedicated to for the project. DM me/tag people!

I had to scroll through so many to get ones I know lmao. I did get Ted Lasso at 4 and Keeley Jones from Ted Lasso at 5 but I haven't seen it so.... (Do the characters quiz and post the top 4 where you know who they are)

PIP is not an income replacement benefit. It is a benefit to allow disabled people to meet some of the additional costs of being disabled in an inaccessible environment. It is *particularly* essential to enabling many disabled ppl to work because workplaces are frequently incredibly inaccessible

This is a wonderful initiative - a poetry care home residency. May you find the best applicant possible.

Joseon Society is a setting supplement to play games of Good Society in the Joseon Dynasty of Korea. This is the culmination of two years' worth of sweat and blood; happy AANHPI month! missmyk.itch.io/joseon-society

Update on this: The consultation will now “aim to launch 19 May and close on 30 June 2025” So it’s now six weeks instead of two. This Pride Month let’s make our campaigning centred around contributing to this consultation.

Is it just me or is hay-fever season at apocalyptic levels this year?
