Still working on this so if you have suggestions. Send them over. #metal #metalsky

The time to prevent the thing from happening is *early*, as it is gaining steam. These things always start small, with efforts to weaken the norms against discrimination, with casual, unreflective slurs. They start with wedge policies (not gays, just gay adoption! not trans, just sports!).

Doctors at Barts Health are developing new education course to improve sensitive communication with trans patients using role play scenarios. This will be rolled out to medical students at Queen Mary University of London and doctors at Barts Health NHS Trust.

I believe this might add some weight to the campaign for a capybara emoji 👍

Well I know what I’m doing tomorrow evening

Reform could gain another MP this Thursday. That's why we're urging Labour, Lib Dem, & other party supporters to lend their vote to the Greens this time in Gorton & Denton. We've carried out extensive research and it points to this being our best chance of stopping a very real threat from Reform.

All sorts of shit gets shut down for people protesting against genocide, but you get the red carpet rolled out for you by the pigs if you have a Union flag and a nazi hairdo.

We’re on to the threatening version of this

How everyday capitalist profiteering works for a few billionaires (and causes inevitable crashes & depressions which make millions of people poorer, homeless, die but somehow billionaires even wealthier) meme via More Perfect Union

Under the current establishment consensus we are facing a de-humanitarian ratchet. Things are permitted to get worse but not better. Attempts to improve life are denounced as woke threats to national security. Attempts to lock up more people, degrade living conditions are just realism.

#UK #Transrights #NHS In a panel discussion organised by can-sg in March 2025, both Dr Anna Hutchinson and Anastassis Spiliadis admitted to never referring a patient onto the medical pathway.

I can't believe I have to get this meme out again (I lied, I can get this meme out multiple times a day)

I don't know how you can honestly look at the last 7 years of thousands of anti-trans bills, a billion in anti-trans spending, laser focus by right wing think tanks, and billionaires personally engaged in the effort and think that all of this is a backlash to some trans people being mean online.

I live in a rural part of the UK & volunteer at a group for LGBTQ+ young people. Many have been out of education, mostly because of being bullied or ostracised by their peers. When they make friends at group they swap social media details. Can't stop thinking about how a ban would devastate them.

I'll save you a click: he watched that cursed video from THE RING and realized if he didn't have a phone, the ghost girl couldn't call him and start the death clock.

Hillary Cass both sides-ing the “trans debate” dismisses the material power imbalance - One side is pushing for restrictions, removal of care, & the eradication of trans kids - The other is pushing for access to care and legal protections Those are not symmetrical in terms of power or impact

Society will never move past the trans panic until we accept that these anti-LGBT extremists are not "genuinely concerned" about anything, rather just a bunch of concern-trolling crybullies. They're exactly like the anti-gay fucks in the 20th Century.

Flat Earthers exist, but we don’t make round the world cruises illegal to appease them. We tell them that they’re idiots and carry on as we were. “Gender Critical” bigots should be treated the same way.

The straw man about schools "initiating" gender transition (they have never done it) is pure Section 28. "Children questioning their gender" implies it's always undecided, offering endless opportunities for conversion therapy. This goes beyond routine moral panic. It's ideological. #bbcpm

Each of Civilization 3, 4 and 5. Endless Legend. Neverwinter Nights. Command and Conquer: Red Alert. And probably the original Quake (definitely, if you count the time I spent building levels for it)

this is like when my classmates in middle school discovered it was funny to ask people if they've seen the clown that hides from gay people

This morning I posted our petition to get Palantir out of our NHS and our public services. Over 40,000 people have now signed it - thank you. Please do keep sharing! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

It’s absurd for this Government’s proposed guidance to suggest that schools need to seek clinical advice if a young person wants to change their name, uniform or hairstyle.

In light of a certain court ruling, it seems like a good time to share this again.

I am one of the most published academics on the childhood social transition, with 5 peer reviewed articles that relate to the topic. There is so much evidence of benefit of social transition. There is no evidence of harm. Not one jot. This will literally kill trans kids. No exaggeration.

Rewind a bit, we can see that the transphobic assertions from Cass, based on repeatedly debunked pseudoscientific work and opinion pieces, have been directly transcribed into this as "fact".

If the planet was being trashed to make plutocrats happy, that'd be terrible, but at least someone would be happy about it. But these people are incapable of happiness. The planet is being trashed to make people who are incapable of happiness feel nothing. Also, a lot of them seem to be pedophiles.

🚨Do. not. use. individual's. actions to. attack. whole. groups.🚨 Not unless you want to take the blame for every person in your social demographic. Bad people exist in every group. That's not an excuse to use the actions of individuals to target those groups, particularly already marginalised groups

Did someone tell him about 1066?

NEW STUDY! @juliahusar.bsky.social and I have a grant to build trans health and wellbeing tech, and we need input from other trans women and transfems to make sure it serves us all well. This is research BY transfems FOR transfems and we're inviting y'all to be part of it. Also, we're paying!

idk i think in a time when it feels like nothing matters & all is futile it might actually be time to double down and write your stories & make your paintings & sing your songs & do your art. create the things that make us human and share them.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social would you speak out about him being on the board of the transphobic hate group Sex Matters immediately before his appointment? SM have the ear of Labour and linking those bastards to Epstein could do more for trans rights than anything else right now

Can someone please join Truth Social and suggest this to him?

To a degree, every single/decent one of them. Collaborative art requires people to open up their minds and let in parts of the world that aren't theirs, and collaborate and inspire so they can create entire new experiences together. Fascism on the other hand doesn't care. It's the death of culture.

Going after feminist groups for standing with trans people is not 'protecting women', whatever some may claim. Read and support our letter with nearly 150 feminist and LGBTQ+ organisations here: www.transsolidarityalliance.com/protectinclu...

We're working for a world where our organisation doesn't need to exist, but for now we're very much needed. You can join our group of monthly donors, set up a fundraiser (such as bake sale or sponsored run), or make a one off donation at: tinyurl.com/DonateTransA... #Trans #TransFundraiser

Its your RIGHT TO RESIST✊

Your Sunday morning long read ⬇️ If you’re not trans and you think trans people protest too much… I’m the mother of Alice a trans woman who died by suicide… this stuff matters…mainstream media isn’t reporting it because they’re complicit in it… Here’s why trans people and allies alike protest…

For some people your job is not to hold up the world. Your job is to stay intact enough to be here later. That’s your fight, that’s your resistance, and it’s okay to step back and take care of yourself.

man I’m sorry to be all corny here but when I see a “the city is beautiful! There’s more to it than homeless people!” I gotta say you know who’s also beautiful? People who have no place to live & are trying to get by in a system that has turned its back on them & if you don’t see that that’s on you

Hmmm. That’s weird. Maybe if we turn it off and on again it’ll stop doing that.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

I've written a blog aimed at cis ppl, on the recent revelations of rising trans suicide rates since NHS England removed gender affirming care for u18s, in particular about my involvement with trying to seek the truth and the trauma the gaslighting by Appleby, Streeting, Cass and the media causes.

I really hope people advocating to ban kids from SM read this. Some kids are isolated by disabilities or circumstances. Furthermore, some kids grow up in abusive households. “Ideally, a child’s exposure to online worlds should be moderated by their parents” isn’t a reassuring sentiment for everyone

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams
