Hey world, remember when you thought this was awesome? (Which, by the way, it was). Yeah well she's been suspended for a week now because of it; it's coloniser rules and forms of expression allowed only, indigenous people must only be angry in white ways. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

When the Home Secretary is having to argue that the Prime Minister's speech was "completely different to Enoch Powell's", it may be time to pause and reflect on ... lots of things.

Feels incredible to see my experience described so well.

AMASE will always stand in solidarity with trans people. The attacks on trans and autistic people often come from the same sources, and often stem from the same old-fashioned prejudices. Many autistic people are trans, and vice versa. The neurodiversity movement wouldn't be what it is otherwise.

Just heard a firsthand account of two folks in Edinburgh being harassed in some public woman's toilets by someone who assumed one of them was a trans woman. The bigot was saying it isn't legal for them to be there any more. Be vigilant and step up if you see something like this going down.

The UK Supreme Court’s transphobic ruling on the definition of woman last week is a defeat for all women—even, ultimately, the self-described feminists celebrating it, and the women who will gain in the short term from their alliance with the carceral state. my latest for @thenation.com

In the light of the Radio 4 nonsense, just reminding people of this. Stop thinking you’re achieving something by posting pictures of hypermasc trans guys and going ooooh they’re gonna be in the ladies

The key demands from the Edinburgh trans rights demo were bread and butter socialism. Universal food, shelter, medicine. Speeches from people I’ve never heard of or barely seen. Organic intellectuals and leaders, proud, loud, defiant. And beautiful to behold.

Some friends are raising money for a pilot scheme to provide free blood tests to trans people in Edinburgh who need them. Help out if you can, and please share widely. www.gofundme.com/f/blood-test...

People will say trans women don’t know what it’s like to be women but here we are with our rights in the balance at a Supreme Court and we weren’t allowed in the room to have a say.

The UK Supreme Court defining "biological sex" basically as "it's obvious don't ask us any more questions" should go down in legal textbooks as among the most brazen example of anti-science legal rulings in the UK's history

Trans rights and trans liberation now. Anyone with a heart or a soul is sick of this evil shit and how it's taken over the UK - not to mention it's the tip of the spear, as we've been warned by our trans siblings so many times. No forgiveness or pity for transphobes, in government or outside of it.

so much of the fascist movement country is supported by the belief that parents own their children and have a right to ensure they turn out a specific way

I absolutely guarantee you they will not be looking into far-right extremists and N@zi sympathisers.

We need A LOT MORE PEOPLE in our groups, campaigns, doing mutual aid etc... Bring your nerdy, cringe, loser selves. Revel in being uncool. Join other people who are doing things in community [mostly quietly and without fanfare]. We need many more people.

I now desperately need a middle-age slasher series. Closest thing is that fight scene in Up where both of their backs freeze up at the same time. I guess next closest thing is Bubba Ho-Tep.

A fun thing about being an American in the UK is that my whole feed is angry about disastrous UK politics for the first half of the day and then once the sun gets round to the other side of the Atlantic it all switches to panic over US politics. Keeps the anxiety nice and fresh.
