ALLY-SHIP IN ACTION.

No one's trying to sneak into your toilets, no one's trying to force your kids to do anything they don't want to. We just want to carry on being who we are. It's a normal human variation that societies throughout history have successfully accommodated.

An endless parade of single-digit follower blue ticks lining up to call every trans person or parent of a trans child they see an abuser. No pretence of anything like live-and-let-live now: it's just full scorched earth.

🚨Lack of awareness over new photo ID rules for voting could disenfranchise four times more young people than older.

A whopping 1 in 4 people aged 18-24 are unaware of the new law, compared to just 6% of over-65s.

It's the start of ember card collecting season, like ordinand Pokémon, gotta pray for 'em all!

The Cass Review disregarded ≈98% of the clinical studies that supported a trans affirmation model of social/medical transition. It then uncritically espoused anti-trans rhetoric to attack trans affirmation. Any idea that the report is neutral or scientific is patently absurd...

Be Trans. Do Gendercrimes. Tear down the structures of oppression.

Glad that while the country is crumbling around us we’re taking the time to *checks notes* make life hard for trans people

If you're a member of clergy, now is probably a very good time to check in with trans people in your congregation.

Academic colleagues who work in areas concerned with research methodologies have a duty to speak up here. The Cass Review's methods are horrendously flawed. Yet it is being passed off as an 'independent report' that should be taken seriously. Integrity matters.

I stopped paying attention for an evening and missed The Times announcing that the British government has decided to define anyone under 25 as a child

The curse of Lincoln’s gloryhole strikes again

The murder of teacher, Blair Peach – a 🧵
 
Blair Peach was born in New Zealand. In 1969, and moved to the UK with his partner, Celia. Peach taught at the Phoenix School in Bow in East London, a school for young children with special needs. #Defiance

giving my final presentation on 11th-15th century aphrodisiacs and did not realize where my zoom window was placed 😐😭

Just maxed out the calf press machine at the gym, at 134kg for 12 reps. I am victorious.
