This is a really important read (thanks Sophie Molly). We need to show the world the horrors facing trans folk in the UK. An attack on one woman (cis or trans) is an attack on us all. Trans allies desperately need to organise & stand in solidarity. #transrightsarehumanrights #LGBwiththeT
Here is an article I wrote last year about the tragic death of Joelle. I didn't publish it as I didn't want to impede Trans Legal Clinic. But now that they have made the story public, here is the article. I'm in tears 😥😥😥😥😥😥 Stop killing us!!! sophie-molly-reports.beehiiv.com/p/transphobi...

i've been increasingly feeling Eh on F1 for a variety of reasons and there's always been the less than great taste in my mouth about the nature of the sport, but this is such a targeted Fuck You to their trans viewers that i think i am done with the sport and will not be renewing my subscription.
as a trans racing fan i’m not sure how i am meant to interpret F1 giving Sophie Cunningham the checkered flag at COTA besides an explicit statement of support for powerful people who would seek to exclude me and my friends from society

GO VOTE! Turnout matters! Also, disrupt the algorithm by liking, commenting and sharing leftists posts but COMPLETELY IGNORING right wing posts NO MATTER WHAT. Let them come complain on posts with leftists talking points AND NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. The more people doing it together the better
SERBIA OVERTHREW THEIR CHAINS AND WON. TWO YEARS OF STUDENT LED RESISTANCE AND THEY WON. BRASIL FOUGHT AGAINST THE POWERS OF THE USA AND OUR OLIGARCHS. THEY RESISTED AND WON. WE CAN DO THE SAME. WE CAN WIN AND START MAKING THINGS RIGHT. WE HAVE TO TRY. THE LEAST WE CAN DO IS TRY.

I have a video game one of these that I've just recently learned: All the Elite voice lines in Halo are just voice lines from human soldiers in the game played backwards and pitched down. "Wort wort wort" is "Go go go".
We all know the "Viggo broke his toe" story but what's another movie fact you're personally compelled to bring up every time without prompting? For me, it's the fact that Robin Tunney is wearing a wig in The Craft because of having just shaved her head to save her job filming Empire Records.

I needed to keep quiet about this but this is what I was working on earlier this year. My publication “Harming Children: The Effects of the UK puberty-blocker ban” was evidence used for this! I had to submit a lengthy affidavit via NZ local trans group PATHA. Let’s hope we can overturn more now.

Prejudice kills. Not in theory, not abstract, real. "they refused to treat because they didn’t have a single room. There were free beds on the single sex wards..She was suffering so much that she didn’t care if they put her on a men’s ward" sophie-molly-reports.beehiiv.com/p/transphobi...

Key findings: this is what @lucympowell.bsky.social is doing to trans children. She is a bully who is deliberately and needlessly harming CHILDREN. She should be removed, she is unfit to be Education Secretary or to work with any children.
Not Safe To Be Me. Horrific reading. @prideineducation.bsky.social & C2BT analyses social media responses to the video made by Katie Neeves about the harm & distress @lucympowell.bsky.social’s anti-trans schools “guidance” has caused to a 13-year old trans girl. cool2btrans.co.uk/not-safe-to-...

I dont want to hear shit about how trans people need to accept "reasonable compromises" puberty blockers instead of hrt for minors *was* the compromise 2 years hrt and hormone testing requirements for trans women athletes *was* the compromise taking more of our rights away is not "reasonable"

Without a hint of exaggeration, this is where we are now. Joelle was murdered for being trans by the National Health Service www.translegalclinic.com/justice-for-...

Reading this and crying thinking about how much I wish I spent more time with Robyn after we left uni. She was one of my best mates, she is *the* reason I realised I was trans and came out in the first place, and she was an absolute fucking rockstar.
Sharing this piece again which I wrote last year. Medical transphobia of the kind NHS England are now touting contributed to my friend Robyn's death. We can sit with the horror of that without losing hope. There is so much of value in our lives, and we have so much to offer each other.

So many people buried their heads in the sand this week saying that NHS segregation of trans people was "for their safety". But even internal NHS assessments say it will cause direct harm. Sex is not binary and trans people need respectful care based on actual physiology, not anti-trans slogans.

This is unimaginably tragic and horrifying at the same time.
NHS England's new trans segregation regime for hospitals will kill people. We know this because there are real examples of how NHS "corridor care" is *already* killing people. But you can help - Trans Legal Clinic are fundraising legal action for a trans woman who died. Please donate and/or share!

The NHS knows that its new policy is going to harm patients, and it's doing it anyway. It is an active choice being made by this Labour government – don't let them pretend their hands are bound.

One specific thing I take issue with here is impacts on religious groups, because I'm sorry but why is it my responsibility to ensure that someone else is practicing their religious beliefs to any degree? Why should I be removed from shared spaces because someone else's religion disapproves?
