Some help required. Daughter lost her very special to her Coraline Cat (pictured) at the Kneecap Crystal Palace gig on Saturday night last. Incredibly long shot but means a lot to her. Any and all help very welcome. Pictured at the gig and previously visiting Big Ben.

988’s LGBTQ+ hotline to relaunch this year. But the group that helped start it might be excluded apnews.com/article/t... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

"Church Flavor" Thank you @just-toso.bsky.social for this amazing commission Deltarune collab with @blueheart174.bsky.social

One film maker I highly recommend everyone go check out is Czech film director, artist, production designer, and animator Karel Zeman. His films really stand out to me for being so imaginative and creative with how he and his amazing crew pull off some of the cinematography and special effects.

It really doesn't take much knowledge of the situation to know you're exactly right

Glee did more for gay people that Harvey Milk, and trans people are best when you don’t have to see or hear from us

Anti-trans politics is a major plank of the republican party because they just replaced the previous plank that was anti-gay, they just swapped one for the other when it wasn't working any more, and this is the most obvious thing ever. Surely everyone remembers how vile they were about gay people?

I really cannot stand people blaming trans folks for what was a massive organising and mobilisation effort from the religious fundamentalist crowd, like here's reporting on the FRC's 5 point plan from back in 2016, there's no excuse to be this oblivious about the thing they said they were doing!

No, what happened was the religious right in the US, after losing on Obergefell v. Hodges, immediately changed tactics. They held huge conferences outlining their plans to roll back LGBT rights as whole by targeting trans people. They didn't skip a beat. We aren't to blame for our own oppression.

What's been really great is watching other gay people blaming trans folks for the rollback in gay rights, as though this was some natural mechanism and not the end result of billions of dollars being spent to continue fighting the way the right has fought since the 50s.

please, i'm begging you, stop unironically using the term friendslop

My hot AI take: This image made in MS Paint with my horrid mouse-driven handwriting on a Google image search of a cutaway diagram of a bone for a hyper specific and dumb conversation about sparkling fruit-flavored bone broth is infinitely better and more artistic than any shit generated by AI.

he's a popular guy

A handy guide from what I learnt from US politics, compared to Hungary: -Left wing = center and around, some left wing. -Right wing = extreme right wing, including fascists. -Center = right wing. -Woke/SJW = socialists. -Liberals = nobody in the USA knows what this means, but they hate it. >

RIP A24

Well, the fear was real. Just lost my job. Gonna take the week for Anthrocon and then go hard on searching. If anyone knows of a game programmer position (9+ years exp, Unity, some Godot, adaptable to a lot), remote preferred or Portland, Oregon, please let me know.

On March 26, 2026, during a debate on violence against women in Germany’s Bundestag, left-wing MP Kathrin Gebel was repeatedly interrupted by AfD MP Martin Reichardt. She responded: “Mr. Reichardt, the clitoris has 3,000 nerve endings, and you’re still more sensitive. That’s quite an achievement.”

If the bullshit machine actually were held to the standards of the humans who billionaire pedophiles keep trying to replace with it, the whole tower of dogshit would slump over. That's the point. That's why everyone is watching it constantly get away with errors that'd wreck a human's life.

Generative AI is not only fundamentally based on the rejection of consent, but also *standards*. Artists have been micromanaged and hounded over individual pixels, academics fighting to defend every minute detail of their thesis, etc, and then are tossed away in favor of the get shit wrong machine.

As is typical, the Times omitted the voices of trans students affected by these policies and then did a flattering profile of a organizations whose entire existence is predicated on pushing trans people out of society.

Like with Obergefell v. Hodges and same-sex marriage. Having bathroom access enshrined into law likely would have weakened the political effectiveness of attacks against transpeople. Taking away a right that is established and harms no one is a much harder sell.

It didn’t used to, but in 2016, when we had a stark choice between moving it left of center or turning it into this, a whole lot of you just made fart noises at anyone who tried to point that fact out.

Kind of incredible in hindsight how mad people used to be about sparkledogs. I’m so sorry, but if you can’t find absolute delight in a colourful dog with a cool scene haircut, your heart needs a lot more healing before you should be allowed to be online

Happy Pride Month, everyone! The obligatory "why do you want to be equal? Don't you have enough if we just ignore you and not kill you?" article is here. Told you these jerks will never stop at trans people.

Everyone who sees this should report it for hate speech

You do know that the "LGBTQ+ movement" has a separate flag, right? bsky.app/profile/shel...

This framing is incredibly gross because using it with literally any other group would result in a resounding "No", but as always, if it's about trans people everything is always a debate forever. I may read this and comment. Or I may just bin it if the first paragraph is not worth my time.

More info, courtesy of @spaceweft.bsky.social: this is from "William the Curious: Knight of the Water Lilies." written and illustrated by Charles Santore in 1997. Of note: though he was a lifelong professional illustrator, Santore didn't complete his first children's book until he was 50 years old.

They gave US zinester Elizabeth Soto *50 fucking years* in prison for publishing a zine that supports an anti-fascism stance. Prosecutors also used her feminism themed zine, and an anti-AI zine as evidence against her. This is unprecedented.

Hey. I know money is tight, but please, if you can... help Juno and Bex keep their home.

UPDATE: Juno's mental health and eating disorders, exacerbated by poverty, have deteriorated to the point where she's staying in a psych ward. Please help make sure she has something to come back to when she gets out: bsky.app/profile/juno...

Anyway, no child can consent to selling *their voice* to a company and any adult who does so on their behalf is an abusive monster.

There better be a lawsuit against them because fuck Hasbro

I do not want to hear any “Think of the children!” excuses from corporate clankers when they willingly participate in this level of malice.

Oh you fuckinge know it’s wizard time

I was raised n these streets - and away from them, too.

The 100% most important knowledge you can have during the summer with this kind of heat is how to identify heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Both can be life-threatening if not treated immediately. If you suspect heat stroke, call 911 immediately and attempt to cool the person as rapidly as possible.

“Again Again” screened at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood last night and it was a special moment for me 🥹 @miamoore.bsky.social has made a beautiful scifi romance film and it’s also my debut feature! Go see it when it comes out! 💕

I knew members of the Mortal Kombat team had cut their teeth in pinball development and that Ed Boon had worked on several Williams pinball tables as a programmer, but I still wasn't prepared to learn that Boon was the voice of the obnoxious ventriloquist dummy in Funhouse.

As I’ve said before, any serious attempt to ban conversion practices in Britain has to confront the fact that the NHS never stopped doing it. This draft bill not only fails, it explicitly gives “healthcare providers” permission to continue.

For any of my cis followers who've seen the publication of this draft conversion practices bill and thought "at last the Government's doing something good for the LGBT community" sadly it isn't worth the paper it's written on and is actually potentially harmful to trans people. See the thread below.

If you add up: *Deaths from USAID funding cuts *Deaths from war *Deaths from poverty *Preventable deaths from Covid Trump probably has a comparable body count to Pol Pot. POL FUCKING POT.

The irony of this article is that it expresses feelings that make a strong response to its own suppositions. Female heterosexuality is conditioned with a kind of built-in frustration, because while male heterosexuality gets to be about desire, female heterosexuality is about OBLIGATION.

I can echo this with the parallel of "transed gay man" and the underlying argument that we would all be not only better off cis, but that we fundamentally belong to a cis community that we were "stolen" from. It's a very possessive narrative, isn't it.

I need help refilling my dog’s pain meds. She can’t walk. I need help refilling my HRT. It’s pride month and I’m trans and I’ve been out all month. I need help eating. I’ve lost 30 lbs this month and was already super under weight. I’m getting bruises all over from malnourishment

:3 TODAY'S MY BIRTHDAY, and my biggest wish ever, is to see trans people happy and safe. Make my day by matching my donation? 💖 (ko-fi.com/dylanheathyp...) Let's make it a very happy pride month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
