This is such leopards eating faces party shit at the supreme court. Biological essentialism is going to bite all women, not just trans women, in the ass. Or the face.

Feels like the tritest of thoughts & prayers for me to post that I obviously still support trans & nb rights today. And yet. Obviously I still support trans & nb rights & I intend to do so for life. If that is an issue for any followers, the unfollow button is easy to find.

I suppose if you want to get in to what a SURPRISING number of people have bought this 6 months, follow the link, it's a supernatural comedy about a family of ghost hunters, very britcore, about family & belonging, about life & death, and about managed decline vs careful rewilding

right winger getting cancelled vs. trans person getting cancelled

Me seeing a person writing a column for a newspaper complaining about being no platformed

A movie that takes place where you're from* *One of like 4 places where I consider myself 'from'

Been trans since before we were “an issue”, back when we were juts “a shame” and it’s rotten seeing the progress that we achieved in my lifetime with a lot of effort get rolled back. If they can do it to us they can do it to you. All of your hard fought rights are contingent on the bastards losing

Had my twice-yearly summary from my publishers, and Cursed Under London's done pretty well! Only a few more sales away from working off my advance. But the books that have done REALLY well lately, like thousands of sales, is The Rooks trilogy and I DON'T KNOW WHY farragobooks.com/book/wish-yo...

Pretty sickened by UK's Supreme Court 🤮 So I'm opening my submission inbox to unagented trans authors in the UK until the END OF APRIL. I'm not currently open to general subs BUT if you're a trans author writing folk horror, weird, experimental, mystery, literary/upmkt fiction, take a look below 👇

It's #BookQW, and this week's word is WIN. In Cursed Under London when Fang does, FINALLY, kiss Lazare, our gangly cursed Frenchman does feel - for a moment - as if he's winning.

As a citizen of an imperial nation, that, with Brexit, had its own unforced implosion: I think the thing that will hurt Americans most in the end isn’t the mockery, it’s the indifference as people move on from you. “We are the world’s laughing stock!” “No. They’re not even thinking about us.”

Wordle AND Letterboxed in 2 today = I get to be pronounced a god of Newwwww Yooorrrrrk Citaaaayyyyy

Me getting a commission Me having to write said commission

[guy about to strike out harder than anyone has ever struck out in the history of chat up lines] hey girl,

Truss says she's doing something Truss gets an inordinate level of press coverage for it Nobody buys the thing anyway because it's shit and she's bad at everything Truss blames The Wokes, You Know The Ones I Mean, for sneakily undermining her actually brilliant idea This also gets press coverage

Most people, with normal sized umbrellas, once it stops raining: time to fold this up, carry it by the wrist strap till it stops dripping then put it in my bag Older blokes with golf umbrellas for some reason: GOTTA SWING THIS BABY LIKE I'M THWACKING BRAMBLES! LET’S GOUGE SOME SHINS!!

Rainy day walking through old London town = get to enjoy blokes swinging their golf umbrellas behind them like pointy canes AND large groups of tourists suddenly planting as one in front of me ❤️

I love that this is essentially becoming Britsky's Theme Song

OH GOD THIS GAME
