🚨Supreme Court rules that a 'biological woman' is a 'biological woman'. Basically states that a Gender Recognition Certificate doesn't change biology. States that trans women are still protected from discrimination within the sex they identify.

While not the outcome we had hoped for, it doesn’t change the fact that trans women are women, nor does it take away the legal protections in place for trans people in the Equality Act under Gender Reassignment. This is not an excuse for you to discriminate against trans people.

Solidarity with trans women after today’s Supreme Court ruling. The rollback of LGBT rights — especially trans rights — is global, bankrolled by billionaires and the far-right. Trans rights are human rights. We must defend the Equality Act and its protections for trans people.

some days it’s all code and clarity other days it’s just error logs and existential dread either way, the terminal's always there #techlife #linux #2025thoughts

some days the code flows, the terminal hums, and everything just works other days it’s broken scripts, cryptic errors, and shouting at logs at 2am but i still love it. there’s peace in the process—even when it’s chaos scotland’s cold, the tea’s hot, and i’m still building

I looked at 100+ Linux distros. None of them did what I wanted. So I’m building my own. From scratch. No systemd. No snap. No hand-holding. Just pure, fast, modular Linux. Because if no distro fits... you roll your own. šŸ”§šŸ§ Retweet if you’ve ever rage-installed Arch at 3am.

Every Linux distro: ā€œWe’ve added a modern experience!ā€ Me: ā€œWhy is this ISO 4GB and installing 3 background services I didn’t ask for?ā€

🚨 The UK Supreme Court rules that a ā€œbiological womanā€ remains defined by biology, even with a Gender Recognition Certificate (GRC). However, trans women are still protected from discrimination within the gender they identify. Not my usual topic, but it’s important. #TransWomen

Trans rights are human rights. No court ruling, no culture war, no panel show should ever change that. This isn’t a debate — it’s people’s lives. #TransRights #LGBTQ #HumanRights #EqualityForAll

ā€œBiological sexā€ is being used as a weapon — not for science, but to strip trans people of dignity and rights. Let’s stop pretending this is about facts. It’s about fear. #ProtectTransPeople #TransRights #LGBTQ #PoliticalTruth

The real threat to society isn’t trans people. It’s cruelty masquerading as policy. It’s lawmakers using minorities as scapegoats to distract from their own failures. #ProtectTransPeople #TransRights #LGBTQ #Justice

Say it clearly: šŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø Trans people exist šŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø Trans people belong šŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø Trans people deserve safety, dignity, and autonomy You don’t need to be trans to support trans rights. You just need a working moral compass. #TransRights #Allyship #LGBTQ #ProtectTransPeople
