This is quite amazing, the @notinourname.bsky.social petition is still increasing by more that 200 signatures a day! A lot of cis women clearly feel strongly that "gender-critical" transphobes don't speak for them. www.change.org/p/not-in-our...

people: mamdani is going to turn NYC into a theocracy!!!! SCOTUS: it's ok if ur religion thinks being gay is evil and don't want ur kids to read about it in school

So today is also a good day to reminder everyone that it is not an "honor" to have your book banned. It doesn't increase sales. It doesn't land you on the elusive banned books B&N front table. What bans do: harm individuals, erase identity, destroy democracy. Book bans are attacks on freedom.

As a queer author, thank you for buying our gay books in response to the challenges and bans and court decisions, but I implore you to go stand up for your public libraries and schools—they’re our greatest advocates, and they’re kind of the main target of this whole effort.

Important thread re donating blood in the UK if you are Trans. It appears, unpublished new guidelines are driven by bigotry & prejudice not biologcy or evidence. Ignoring impact of hormone treatment risks harm & contradicts both prior NHSBT or JPAC guidelines www.nhsbt.nhs.uk/who-we-are/o...

The Dyke Project are absolute queens for this!

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Not surprising, but really fucking awful

If the disability cuts were cruel and callous for existing claimants, they’re cruel and callous for future claimants too. This 2 tier system would be totally unacceptable - Labour rebels must stay firm

What in the Orwellian fuck is this?

Fuck these people who'd throw their own mothers under the bus for their career

Katelyn Burns very smartly pointing out the way mainstream media began by silencing all the mainstream trans writers, then moved on to claiming trans people stopped trying to persuade the public.

Fuck you Gavin

"...it is not fair to cast Skrmetti as some failure of the movement for trans rights. It is a political victory for the Christian right, claimed at the highest court, at the expense of trans people. There is a difference."

Where are the "protect the women" champions now? This should be the focus of their rage, not trans people. This will legitimately kill people, and harm so many more

remember when Elon Musk straight up performed a Nazi salute, twice, on stage, and the NYT was like "hmm, huh, what can this mean, who can say"

hi, cis folks! so senate’s king nerd struck the trans healthcare bans from the budget bill—that’s good! but the GOP may put it back in, meaning dems need to be ready to challenge it on the floor—that’s doable, but they need to know you want them to! today’s a great day to call senators: reps.fyi 🧵

A point here is how abusive the British state, broadcasters & billionaire news are in their treatment of trans people. Media focussing on the US while ignoring good practice on UK's doorstep - normalises and legitimises state abuse. Britain is an anomalous a rogue state on LGBTQ+ rights .. [1/2]

First time ever the UK media refrain from talking about trans people

trans women are bad because theyre men but men are good because they will assault trans women totally legitimate feminist thought, actually

The UK has gone full fucking batshit. Trans people aren't fucking centaurs!

If you met your MP today - make a post like this declaring what was said. Document who has integrity as time passes. See who actually speaks up.

@en.france24.com daring to report from where the BBC, due to something about 'balance' or perhaps impartiality, refuses to Perhaps tomorrow a brave BBC journalist or a principled @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social presenter will let us know about how 'sex matters' feel about today's events 🤞🏼

This is one of the most horrifying things I've ever read. Jesus.

Anti-trans campaign group ‘Green Women’s Declaration’ - a fringe clique trying to speak for all women - claims the @greenparty.org.uk is losing support over its trans women and girls inclusive feminist stance Reality: Many more women than men are abandoning Labour to join/vote Green Party (63%)
