Edgelord comedians sure have been quiet about free speech suddenly.

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

survey.gendercensus.com

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

*INSTITUTIONALIZATION IS WORSE THEN JAIL*

Disabled, mentally ill, and homeless people thrown into institutions don’t get phone calls, lawyers, or trails. THEY ARE DISAPPEARED with no time limits or advocate for as long as the state pleases.

You know it’s bad when prisoners have more protections.

OH HEY ITS THE EUGENICS OF DISABLED PEOPLE WE ALL TOLD YOU WAS COMING

I feel... flat. As a trans nonbinary person, the UK gov and supreme court now want to dictate my gender based on my internal plumbing. I don't have the spoons.

I want to be at the front lines shouting their ears off. I can't leave my flat. Fuck this shit.

People need to understand that it won't matter what the specifics of thy UK supreme court decision are. The GCs control the media narrative and implementation of it in the labour government. It'll effectively mean legal segregation of trans people and the elimination of legal recognition such as IDs

just a reminder that cis women being impacted by anti-trans law is by design. it's social policing.

sorry you're surprised by this.

Good morning.

Word of the Day is as beautiful as it is underused. ‘Confelicity’ is finding joy in the happiness and success of others.

I am verified! Bluesky makes it so easy, I love it! #verified

So I lost my Bluesky among the 50 or so tabs I have open at any given time in any of my 3 browser windows...

What'd I miss?

I hear about so much bad shit happening in the US at the moment and I recognise the fear, panic, and associated mental paralysis so well from when the Tories took power here in the UK back in 2010. Except, y'know, 10x worse.

Please stay safe US friends. I wish I could offer a place to go...

Ohai, I guess I'm new here. Refreshing to have a social thing that's not super algorithm-y!
