NEW: FOI requests reveal NHS Wales used unverified 'family concerns' to stop trans surgeries

Faith Elisabeth Lilley reposted

Yesterday, Wizards informed us that it doesn’t intend to voluntarily recognize the D&D or Studio X units of our union ahead of a vote. We remain committed to creating a workplace focused on wellness, transparency, and collaboration by winning our coming election.

@sianberry.bsky.social case in point. It's just cruelty.

@england.nhs.uk just published new formal guidance telling hospitals to put transgender patients in wards based on their “biological sex”. That means they’re now putting trans women in men’s wards, and trans men in women’s wards, regardless of their personal circumstance or how vulnerable they are.

Who benefits from this? Nobody. It doesn’t improve healthcare for anyone. It doesn’t make hosiptals safer. It just inflicts humiliation, distress, and potentially violence, upon trans people, when they’re vulnerable.

I’m a trans woman and I’ve been transitioning for 7 years. I live and participate in society on a daily basis as a woman. I’ll soon be undergoing major surgery and now I’m likely to wake up on a men’s ward, surrounded by strangers, physically vulnerable, and outed as trans against my will.

The @dotsrpg.org team were invaluable in the early days of us building D&D Beyond. They have a great depth of knowledge and I absolutely recommend them for teams needing accessibility advice of any sort.

Hi friends! We wanted to take a minute to talk about something we experience as a small nonprofit - missing out on partnerships or fundraising opportunities because we’re not big enough. While we understand people may not want to take a chance on us, it makes it harder to grow 🧵

This is absolutely it - all of the key mechanisms and policies that have led to transmisic and authoritarian laws, are all still going to be there. They're literally just changing the cover of the packaging.

‘do you *want* reform to win?!’ no. what i want is for the labour party to lose and then burn to the ground. i didn’t hate keir starmer. i hated his government and that’s not being changed. they literally jus giving his government a bad hair cut and a dye job.

Gender Critical Transphobia really is a brain rot cult. I've blocked so many people today for shouting "trans women are men" at me in my comments, like they're achieving something profound. 🙄

What a surprise ….. “Is AI ruining our skills? Early results are in — and they’re not good Reliance on artificial-intelligence tools degrades the abilities of physicians and software engineers, studies show.” www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Some are bots, sure, but the majority of them are real people, with profiles that show them doing things like campaigning against racism, standing up against the genocide in Gaza, campaigning for rights for disabled people, and so on.

Yet here they are taking joy in trans women being hurt. I understand the whole cognitive process (and yes, it really is a cult), but this will never fail to make me sad that otherwise kind and lovely people get sucked into it.

It's much akin with the gleeful references people make about the scale of prison rape against trans women when they're incarcerated. It's not satisfaction at justice or a threat averted. It's joy. Mirth. Inhumans used as toys for their entertainment.

I should dig out my old posts from other platforms where I said this is what would happen. Oh wait, that wouldn't help. Oh well.

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines

"The NHS has chosen to centre a clear and overwhelming belief that a child growing into a trans adult is an unsatisfactory outcome — even at the cost of that child’s wellbeing; even at the cost of their life."

im 42 years old and during that time the country hasn't had a single left wing government. not once. it's been an endless stream of increasingly bigoted and extremist thatcherism.

Mark Chadbourn@chadbourn.bsky.social

UK Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch admits she’ll make Farage PM if Reform come close. In an interview with The Spectator: “This country cannot have another left-wing government.” A fascist one is okay though.

We are delighted to say that our letter to the leaders and our elected representatives got a response, and that it was so timely! It's quite an in-depth response, and I don't think we can cover literally everything, but we're happy with the response we got.

Congratulations to everyone who said it would get this bad. Your prize is watching everyone who disagreed now claim no one could have predicted it would get this bad.

UKSC says it’s impossible to be deprived of liberty if you lack capacity. I say it’s impossible to have liberty in a jurisdiction where all our freedoms exist only at the grace of this marauding gang of tyrants.

Faith Elisabeth Lilley reposted

Given that disabled people have today received the same treatment from the SC, this is especially well timed. We stand together or fall together. We need better disabled facilities and we do not need us trans people taking them, when we have been using the loos of our gender for a very long time.

It's much more than a toilet ban. Here's the summary. Please share far and wide, this needs to be stopped #LabourBathroomBan #TransSegregation

Reading this it's rarely hit harder to me how disconnected amnesty are from grass roots hate researchers. This is a great report in that amnesty have a lot of weight but there's so much information amnesty seem to just not know

I'm a little angry about how much when trans people speak for ourselves no-one listens here.

For the record, this proposal specifically targets gender identity. You have until May 22nd to submit a comment

glaad.org/fcc/ I decided if they could use the slippery slope argument, so could I. What's next, a label for content that includes POC? Women? Thank you, @authorkaraj.bsky.social, for teaching me about the Comstock laws because I threw those in my comment too.

The BBC have responded to my escalated complaint about them platforming Martina Navratilova. It comes down to, "Well, she wasn't on air at the time she sent that tweet, so we're not going to do anything." They won't even acknowledge she's done anything wrong. bsky.app/profile/aida...

Aidan Comerford@aidancomerford.bsky.social

This tweet is highly defamatory and Martina Navratilova should be fired from BBC Sport for it. It demonstrates an horrendous level of hatred for a trans woman (who was cleared of all wrongdoing in a recent tribunal) because she is a trans woman.

@natacha.bsky.social hit the nail on the head here. The UK government promised to ban Conversion Therapy and instead they're planning to introduce laws to PROTECT Conversion Therapy. Oh and it's more correctly named Conversion Torture.

Natacha@natacha.bsky.social

Conversion Therapy will be banned except… - In any location where it is done - By anyone who does it - By anyone who believes it is right to do it - On anyone, regardless of whether they consent to it or not

"I'll just spend a couple of hours on prep for my weekly D&D game!" 4 hours later, I have an engaging mini-game framework for running missions with NPC students from a monster hunter academy, complete with advancement rules and different foes. 😅 (it doesn't use d20s)

Kickstarter officially banning adult content now. Knew this was coming, but it still sucks to have yet another part of the internet that I've been explicitly evicted from. Digital gentrification is exhausting.
