Re: the asinine UK Supreme Court decision: trans women are women. Trans men are men. And those of us who aren't quite keen on being women or men, or are both, are always going to be here.
And a reminder that it is always a good day to publicly embarrass your boss for misgendering you at work. ✌️

There is a difference between being scared for your perceived way of life, and being scared for you literal lives, and the people who have and are using the former to justify imposing the latter are just the absolute worst that humanity has to offer. I fucking hate this.

This is FACINATING!! I never knew that horses were one of the US's major contributions to the effort of #WWI. You learn something every day! (thank you @kjeanveau.bsky.social for bringing this to my attention! <3)
