A small ask, as a transgender who values his mental health, can we not all screenshot Rowling and post it here whenever she decides to tweet something hideously transphobic? Logged on this morning and my entire feed was Rowling screenshots. If I wanted to see that, I’d still be on Twitter.

The BBC is fine with some 'politics'.

If this year so far has reminded me anything is that life is short and we need to make the most of every day and every opportunity

This year just gets worse and worse. I don’t even know what to say anymore

I’m not even in New York, and I’m starting to believe electing Zohran could be the first step in steering us back to the right timeline.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

Short shorts weather

Too hot, I’ll just rest part of my head on cool pad

Thank you for playing my Queerly Fabulous Anthem, @mxmike.co.uk @glitterbeamuk.bsky.social!

If the heat wave was trans we'd have emergency legislation to stop it by now.

No swerfs, no terfs, no fash, no cops, no borders, no genocide and no pink washing isn’t radical pals, standard stuff, you need to change you standards if you think that’s “radical”

Morning ☀️

"People should have the right to choose to die." "People should have the right to choose abortion." "Transes shouldn't be allowed the right to choose to transition, they don't know what they want. What if they change their minds. Ban them, lock 'em up."

I am in favour of assisted dying but you simply cannot allow it in a country that hates the vulnerable and disabled as much as the UK.

Kinda hot in the greenhouse

Regular check of our emergency evacuation grab bag because…gestures at the state of the world

This is still my position

If Stephen's too posh for protests, there are other avenues for him to support trans people www.them.us/story/ian-mc...

lol "It is important to note that we weren't referring to For Women Scotland, but the group Sex Matters, which suggests Rowling didn't actually read the story before trying to smear our publication."

Forgive me for not falling over myself to heap praise on the person who is only now just saying “oh maybe Rowling is a bit transphobic after all”

Yeah, this seems to be putting the blame partially at our door. She’s entirely the victim of her own actions.

I hope Stephen Fry's change in stance is out of genuine concern for trans people rather than 'this obsessed freak is making me look bad by association' but I'm not holding out much hope.

Kathleen Stock quit, she wasn't fired. Maya Forstater's temporary contract wasn't renewed, she wasn't fired. Hadley Freeman quit, she wasn't forced out.

Just last week, the head of the EHRC said that Article 8 didn't apply to trans people.

😕

2025 & folks are still UP IN ARMS about Sabrina Carpenter being a bit slutty, speak to your kids, call a penis a penis, a vulva a vulva and stop mystifying bodies while blaming a bloody pop star

So so so happy for the winner of #GlowUp

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

Finally done. My final comment: “It feels insulting to even have to complete this consultation and I am astounded at how blatant this code is in attempting to make things as difficult as possible for trans people to continue to live and survive in society within the UK.”

Rebecca Paul MP — who at the Women and Equalities Committee last week spoke so much about women's rights (in order to undermine trans people's) — is now speaking in Parliament against the decriminalisation of abortion. You couldn't make it up. These people are not feminists.

The EHRC's lawyers admitted its position re. toilets adopted in its interim update (specifically mandating employers to have single-sex toilets instead of individual gender neutral cubicles) was wrong. We think they're even more wrong still, though.

Does anyone know of any research on the impact of misgendering/deadnaming?

She's not a "diva". She was hurtful & used gays as her shield.

Kim Woodburn was a transphobe for those with short memories “a man’s a man, a woman’s a woman. And women who say that don’t mind sharing a dressing room with a man, they must be sexually frustrated and need to see something naughty.” www.thepinknews.com/2022/12/05/k...

Kim Woodburn has died. One less anti-trans voice on the planet.
