Fuck "did Women Ruin the Workplace?" Let's talk about "did the Workplace ruin women?" 🤬 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangl...

Status update for my conference presentation next week, under government shutdown and air travel cuts:

Or possibly crypto.

Reread Susan Stryker's "My Words to Victor Frankenstein Above the Village of Chamounix: Performing Transgender Rage" last night, for the first time in about 5 years. An incredible piece, more inspirational to me now than ever. Live your life in joy, but also in rage. Don't shy away from your rage.

It shouldn’t be forgotten that a big piece of Mamdani’s campaign was simply “cities are cool and lots of people enjoy living in them” which in and of itself dismantles alot of rightwing talking points

This reads like a Nuremberg trial testimony, and I hope one day it is. These monsters won't be able to mask their faces forever.

THE FIX IS IN

Then they've done a piss-poor job of it.

I know I've been here less than two years. But it's long enough to learn the three little words of the Chicago girl coming home from her travels. "Beef, wet, hot"

Breaking: EHRC Appoints Maya Forstater as Transfinder General

THIS IS THE GOOD COPE

At the gate, boarding soon. Despite my fears, survived almost two weeks in the UK with zero terfery. Good times with family and friends, and some fun explorations. @scarlettaddams.bsky.social will get over her "narrow roads with 60mph speed limits and tractors" trauma eventually. Back soon!

Fabulous catch up with two fabulous friends - we put the world to rights although will never agree on the respective merits of Butter Pies v Yorkshire Puddings @jillianw.bsky.social @scarlettaddams.bsky.social

"In a final statement..." Hope springs eternal.

I just don't have that many before pictures. I was introverted, camera-shy, and hated my appearance. I do more selfies in an average week than in my entire pre-hatching life.

Love you, Space Dog. So much, I did a painting. Diptych, 2m², acrylic on canvas

🚨 1/ SCOOP We all know Pamela Paul is not a good journalist. But in her (poorly argued) WSJ screed on the alleged "growing divide" in LGBTQ circles abt trans rights, she reports ESPECIALLY badly—including abt Jose Arango & his boyfriend who dumped him. Paul didn't talk to the boyfriend. I did.

One of the joyous moments of this trip - on a drive through north Yorkshire, I saw a couple of red kites. I remember when they were all but extinct in the UK - down to the last handful. Now they're not uncommon - and such a beautiful, elegant bird! We can fix things, when we make an effort.

Philip K. Dick gets it right again. Let's hear it for the vague blurs!

Won't someone save us from the malign social pressures of Big Sinister?

"I literally have no idea what to do." Brianna, I have a suggestion:

Where is Kevin Bacon? It’s suddenly become very important to know where Kevin Bacon is.

Because it’s cis kids. The NHS will quite casually give cis kids whatever treatment they need, even PBs👇 No trials. No concerns about side effects. No moral panic.

PSA for all trans girls, and I do mean all

Trans Awareness Month, starting at the Corn Exchange, Leeds.

More pondering, after a night's sleep. I can see no reason for Labour to delay laying the guidance in this way other than that they don't want to do it. This means our campaign as far as it's gone, has worked. Senior Labour figures are rattled and...

I'm a dual citizen, and guess which two fucking countries? Yay.😬

I'm sitting here in a Leeds coffee shop, about to go use the women’s when I've finished my flat white. I predict no drama and no casualties.

Excellent thread. It's important to remember that this lengthy trip up Shit Creek is all to appease a miniscule number of hard-core transphobes - far fewer than the number of trans people. Well-funded and well-connected, but miniscule.

I expect she'll also claim not to know what "performative outrage" means. (I literally LOLed at "asked to speak to the manager")

POV you’re still not married and your grandparents just found the nicest boy with a good job they want you to meet

Trantifa, checking in...

Six years ago, not long after I came out, I found my soul mate. Four years ago today, I married her. Getting through the horrors, with the amazing woman lying next to me. We're so much stronger together. J❤️S 🏳️‍⚧️

To those who needed to know: 29 To everyone else: 34 Current age: 45

Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now? 43 and 47.

Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now? Depends who to. To my closest family: 23 To my friends: 32 To the rest of the world: 33 The discrepancy between the first and second ones is a story in itself

Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now? 57 and 63.

I will not be complicit in our own elimination by voting for this monster. If he's the candidate, Dems will be telling me they don't care about my vote. I understand the assignment.

This new lavender scare will age like milk. Where a politician stood on trans issues in 2025 will be treated like where a politician stood on the Iraq War.

Bringing The Gay to Wharfedale

Four amazing years ago, @scarlettaddams.bsky.social and I did this. I love you more than I can express, babe!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Angeleno friends posting about a long game of baseball meanwhile in Britain we have cricket matches that go on for DAYS you yanks are SOFT

Yorkshire career options, if I'd been born a generation earlier.

Today's new chapter of The Big Book of What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

@scarlettaddams.bsky.social is very impressed with the Yorkshire-sized HP Sauce bottle. (Pint of Kirkstall for scale). (waves at @prsturgeon.bsky.social)

And we're here. Peed in the women's. No casualties.

Getting on a plane to Terf Island in three hours. Cool.
