Virgin Active call themselves an LGBTQ+ ally, but decided to ban trans people from using their changing rooms and bathrooms... so we created a new slogan for them 👀

We need to make make as much noise as possible and make Virgin Active feel the pressure.

Will you join us? 👇

I knew my social anxiety was bad but jfc

The neighbour knocked today to ask about a parcel and I've been fighting with mass anxiety to not have a panic attack since. It's been an hour. They just asked about a parcel.

The chest tightening is driving me nuts.

Wish I could afford therapy.

On a more cheerful note, I've got a new fruit tree. A Rio Star grapefruit to add to my growing collection of citrus. It unfortunately had a broken branch but I've taken some cuttings from it, so hopefully they root.

There are some exceptions (I'm married to a cis guy) but I am fucking done with so many cis people.

No trust.

Not unless you show a backbone and actually stand with us. Same for any minority.

Trans rights. Free Palestine. BLM. Fuck ableism. Tear down capitalism and build something better.

My last hope for Your Party goes up in smoke as Zarah Sultana ‘welcomes’ Mark Serwotka.

His wife founded a Woman’s Place UK, a TERF group constantly trying to rollback trans people’s freedoms and he even wrote this lovely piece calling for ‘respectful discussion’ about our rights: archive.ph/iPb0L

Still alive, just about. My energy levels have plummeted the last few months. Still feeling a shit ton better than before T so yeah, not complaining too much.

It's been months and I'm still coming to terms with being 50.

There’s a lot of infighting among leftists who mask versus those who don’t.

I believe one of the most impactful things you can do to help disabled and marginalized people is wear a mask (ideally an N95).

You want to resist fascism? Wear a mask.

Stand up for your health & the health of others

Apparently the Supreme Court ruling means councils have to dig up existing pedestrian crossings painted in the trans Pride colours. I must have missed that part of the judgement.

Hey guess what? Not using gen AI is really easy! I’ve got a whole list of tips and tricks! You ready? Let’s go!

Step 1: You don’t use it.
Step 2: You never use it.
Step 3: You do things yourself, learn how if you can’t, or hire someone who can.

Congratulations, you’ve done it!

Presumably the free speech union will be defending any authors of trans books for kids (me) should we decide to challenge this?

Or is it that they only support right wing grifters who don’t like being called bigots

Thinking about the Cave of Hands, some of the art dating back to 7,300BC, where 25% of the hand prints are thought to be that of children. Imagining those people gently holding their child up to the cave walls, and using their tiny little hands as a stencil. Art = love = the human soul

My indie blog has finally launched its LGBTQIA+ Book Collection! See how you can take part.
For Pride month, we've created a new book collection on our site for queer and transgender books featuring main characters or stories that fit within the LGBTQIA+ spectrum!

Check it out here: www.readindiefantasy.com/the-lgbtqia-...

But! We need YOUR help to fill it!

Nearly half past ten and still unbearably hot. I've been trying to write but I've had a soggy GSD laying in my lap most of the day because he seems to think laying on me with all that long hair makes us both cooler?

I don't know. I've tried writing this scene multiple times but my brain's cooked

Reposting this as a fellow writer of trans masc MC's as I've been looking for more of us and I can't be the only one who's looking.

Especially for a fellow writer of a transmasc detective 👍
Pride Month is almost over! Can I interest you in two scary short stories with trans masc MCs before it ends? They're PWYW over on itch!

It's your last chance to respond to the EHRC consultation. It closes at 11.59pm tomorrow. Get it done tonight. Tell them about the personal impact. Better to do something short and quick than not at all.

Don't let them claim we didn't tell them.
