Sorry but I can only be raptured in my own personal time with line manager sign off

Happy #Bisibility Day to those who celebrate. 💙💜❤️

To be anti-trans is to be anti-science; trans people are as real as climate change, so take anyone talking shit about trans people as seriously as you take climate change deniers or people who think we didn’t land on the moon or flat earthers.

Believe trans people when we tell you the 'science' behind the Cass Report is as solid as the 'science' behind paracetamol causing autism.

The Royal Society for Blind Children (RSBC) urgent appealing to children’s authors, writers and publishers to donate stories to its new bedtime stories app. The charity relies on stories in the public domain but are running out of books. Anyone willing to donate should contact [email protected].

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins? He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions. So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?

The only thing that causes my autism is having to share a world with these people

The times when I actually get to talk to users is easily the best part of the job, but it is also the most tiring. Active listening alongside time watching and thinking about getting everything covered requires a lot of cognitive power.

Asking again! If you are a disabled player impacted by the recent rising prices of games, systems, and devices, feel free to respond!

my brother you invented a casio

Maybe nobody is buying physical games anymore because there is nowhere on the high street that sells them.

I think fundamentally, the ability to care about the rights of a small and vulnerable minority (of whom you might know no members) is an important sign of whether you are committed to human rights out of principle, or out of mere convenience.

NEW VIDEO!!! Global Care Chains - neoliberalism, migration, and border fascism Give it a watch, give it a share and all that youtu.be/ktvZlMcPqPk

The time to listen to trans people was 10 years ago but, you know, you can start any time you're ready.

Why is autocorrect so fucked up on web Bluesky? Not always, but often it just doesn’t work properly, like it’ll ignore me tapping on the word, or add the previous word or correct a letter like it’s a new word.

My physio told me autistic people can’t process folic acid tablets and I should use a different form, much like in this article. (my levels are low, I’m not pregnant) I ignored her because it sounded like bullshit, but I wonder if it comes from the same source?

If you're on #LinkedIn, this is the link for declining their use of your data for training their AI models: www.linkedin.com/mypreference...

me: making art is difficult. criticism is harsh and cruel. doctor: treatment is simple, stay away from your worst critics. go spend time by yourself me, bursting into tears: but doctor,

Cool beans, not buying this then 👍

Yes alt text is important for screen reader users, but text alternatives are also important for users who have cognitive issues or are neurodivergent - just alt text may not be enough for complex images and users who don't use SRs may not know how to get to the alt text

One of our most popular tees of the year is back and here to stay, available now in the Yeteemart; TRANS RIGHTS!!! This tee features an energetic design by @kduffles.bsky.social with $6 from each tee sold donated to Transgender Law Center theyetee.com/transrights

Lock and Load. Informed of racist graffiti on Sheffield's canal network, SCARF activists were swiftly on the scene to cover up the hate. From the streets to the towpaths, Sheffield will be far right free!

Truly exceptional article from @polphilpod.bsky.social on the political meanings and impacts of Labour's transphobia and how it strengthens fascism worldwide: www.liberalcurrents.com/britains-bat... Even if you're not a capital-L Liberal, this is very much worth your time

Here's a better idea: every data centre you build, you build enough renewable energy to power it, and you supply the waste heat from your cooling system to power homes and businesses nearby. Simple. Common sense. And fair.

you know I wouldn't say I had high hopes for "the Spectator interviews the Tate brothers" anyway but somehow the piece is worse than I thought it would be

We're hiring a Lead Technical Writer to join our UCD leadership team on GOV.UK One Login. Salary £67,972 - £83,027.

And please, speaking from experience: When you talk about stuff like NPM, remember that the humans who actually work directly on it care IMMENSELY, and they work harder on it than you can possibly imagine. They are SO GOOD at what they do, and they KNOW everything I'm saying (and more!). Be kind.

I am once again hoping that people come to understand that the current state of NPM is not a fundamental property of commons-based open source dependencies, but the product of sheer and intentional neglect by leadership at a company that bought the ecosystem on a firesale and resents it enormously.

Chiitan loves all transgender people. I've received a lot of criticism for expressing my support, but what's more important is that all transgender people live happy lives. Blue Sky cannot display long posts, so please read this post if you'd like. love you all 🤍 ↓ www.instagram.com/reel/C9qppva...

Cats say a £22bn investment in Dreamies and new Catnip technologies will boost Britain's economy in the next few years

I'd say that thinking a competition that is a meeting point for almost all of Europe with a massive global audience isn't inherently political no matter the circumstances makes you completely unsuitable to be the boss of a broadcasting service. #Eurovision

The EHRC guidance is unworkable for business. Signatories include Ben & Jerry's, Lush, Lucy & Yak and hundreds of large and small businesses across the country www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

There’s a lot of “we’re In Here talking about people Out There” in inclusive design/accessibility circles and it’s really holding us back. Hire us, and then listen to us. Too often I’ve been the only disabled person in the room getting talked over by people who mean well but not well enough.

The NHS tool for assessing eating disorders is called the "SCOFF" tool. Kids with a potential eating disorder are asked to fill in a 'Scoff' assessment. I'm sorry, WHAT? WHAT? Tools for trans kids are AWFUL & every time I step into other areas of healthcare I'm so dismayed to see similar issues.

Replacing "transgender is like ferrari" with "transgender is like microwave" from now on after this great bit

One of the strangest ironies of the last ten years has been watching Britain immersing itself as deeply as ever in memories of WW2 while proudly turning its back on the project that emerged from it.

Sunlight doesn’t disinfect, because fascist ideology isn’t a mold, it’s a fire. You have to starve it of oxygen.

There’s a danganronpa 2 remake? Oh my god and what the fuck we are so back

The WSJ, The Sun, The Daily Telegraph, The Times and The Guardian all reported these as “transgender“ transcriptions. Appalling lack of journalistic standards.

So now that it’s confirmed that none of the messages on the bullets were pro-trans, maybe we should have a national conversation about how multiple newspapers repeated a lie about us on their front pages hours after doubts had already been cast over it?

Got an email from @prospectunion.bsky.social bragging about all they got up to at TUC congress but oddly no mention of how they abstained from the unanimous vote on protecting trans rights

Just One More Thing: QIA+

As someone who only stopped using their ipod classic during covid because of needing Bluetooth headphones I am so here for the rebirth of MP3 players www.theguardian.com/thefilter/20...

Renewable energy has gone from supplying 20% of the UK’s power to 50% annually in just ten years. Old things are better than they’ve ever been before: you can pick up pre-owned bikes, computers, cars, hifis, CDs and games for a fraction of their original price and they’re *really* good.

Bluesky's moderation is a joke, seemingly pushed by a right-wing mass reporting campaign to suspend their users over nothing, but it doesn't occur to them that those right-wing fascists want this site shut down/gone, and Bluesky is gladly cutting its own legs out from under itself to help them.

BREAKING NEWS: I am thrilled to be able to report that after a discussion with JPAC, JPAC has agreed to update it's position statement to make it clear that trans people haemoglobin levels should be tested against their hormonal levels, not their Sex at Birth. 1/7
