Got to design my friends fursona and it was a blast! I know what my friends want :> Commission for @aerynm.bsky.social #furry #art #otter

Worked hard to get this into Guardian Oz & big props to @fiercemum.bsky.social for setting it up & Melissa Davey for publishing it. She will doubtless get loads of hassle from transphobes for it, but it needs to be out there. Puberty Blocker bans harm trans kids, no-one should pretend they don’t.

The comorbidity of neo-Nazism and transphobia isn't just a kind of "one bad belief leads to all bad beliefs". At its core, it's the same belief: belief in a rigid societal order where your station at birth determines your future, your role, and how you must labor. A belief in biodestiny, in short.

Forcing the director of the BBC to resign in part because of a "pro-trans bias" is like a mutiny against Captain Hook because he's "not camp enough".

Trans Kids Deserve Better protest at EHRC offices in Glasgow.

Anyone find it funny how when the UK releases the Cass review to ban trans care, we get everything ranging from New York Times push notifs to op-eds in every major US paper... But when Germany, Switzerland, and Austria release pro-trans youth care guidelines, not a single article anywhere but mine?
