I don't have a bluesky echo chamber, I have a carefully monitored auditorium of people who don't come here to be a piece of shit to other people. Which is an entirely reasonable proposition.

You know the energy we all give those doom posts?

I get that we share that stuff to keep each other informed, for an emotional outlet, to find community and to attempt to sense-make.

But it’s also very draining.

Let’s bring some of that same energy to positive actions and community creativity.

Whenever people say that these comments are isolated, accidental or just 'following the story' I say, look closer and you'll see an ideology at work. Strangely this one just after the US Religious right started their 'separate the T' campaign.
Some of us remember when Maitlis said that primary age school kids are having gender confirmation surgery. The BBC anti Trans bias goes back nearly a decade #BBCTransphobia

I gave up nicotine 226 days ago. Having been ok after about a couple of months, in the last two weeks I have been climbing the walls for a hit. What the hell.

Yeah - I stopped counting the violence, rape and death threats at 400 last time a British newspaper printed words by me and my picture.
Like and share this if you've received online threats of violence for being trans, or supporting trans people.

I have.

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

BREAKING: Telegraph journalists recruiting a necromancer to install the reanimated corpse of Joseph Goebbels as BBC Director General

The only thing redder than a poppy is the bellends of British journalists that they’ve rubbed raw over trans women

I wonder if anyone is going to tell the anti trans activist and 'professor of law' that a tribunal judge asking more questions that the opposing barrister is usually a very *bad* thing for your case.

If you love someone, tell them.

If you miss someone, reach out.

If you can spend time together, do it.

One day, you’ll wish you had more of those moments.

Oh aye? Then why did no fucker at all come forward to help the six times I've been assaulted in the street by people with what the Guardian keeps framing as 'legitimate concerns'?

The BBC, where clowns go to die.
They've changed it back again now, but changing a quote is a huge red flag. The BBC are repeatedly demonstrating that there are ideologues directly interfering with the meaning of stories they report relating to trans people, and this should be a far bigger deal than it is
In this piece, admitting the BBC has broken its impartiality rules re. trans people, the BBC further breaks its impartiality rules by changing a quote saying "trans identity" to "trans ideology".
November 6, 2025 at 11:08 PM
The Telegraph citing Boris 'criminal prime minister' Johnson as their champion of '`The BBC isn't nazi enough for us yet' campaign is about as absurd as their championing of Liz Truss as an economic genius.
Why people give a toss for that collection of soiled toilet tissue I don't know.

Back in the day when Twitter was Twitter and I was a newly hatched trans chick, there was an account who followed me and we interacted - it was a couple. She, a trans woman, he a cis guy. Albeit they never showed their pictures to anyone - but commented a lot on people's posts.

The BBC's mealy mouthed coverage of the NY Mayoral victory, talking up the 'challenges' and that Zohran has 'not faced scrutiny'. When do they ever scrutinise the parade of sex offenders standing on right wing platforms?

Fucking jokers

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

And yes it’s 0330 here and I’m posting about IS politics because my daughter has exams in the morning and is in agony with neuralgia so I’m awake and honking about progressive wins. Before the orange geriatric starts up his bullshit circus
