In 2008 I called the BBC and made a nuisance of myself until they agreed to amend how they spoke about a trans woman I knew who was murdered.

And they were still much better then than they are now.
So I'm going through the BBC archives on trans people to see how people are talked about and I'm at about 2005 now.

1. "Biological" just does not appear until this year

2. Omission of pronouns completely also doesn't occur until this year

3. Only 5 incidents of misgendering so far

The wellspring of reactionary politics is people getting angry and making their whole personality about something that never happened and never will.
Ana Kasparian claims the left turned on her over her opposition to being called a "birthing person".

Ana Kasparian: "I don't have kids, I don't want to have kids, and I don't want to be called a 'birthing person', I find it super insulting."

Ah, the cyclical 'transmedicalism' discourse. That time of month when someone who proudly identifies as a 'fagdyke' called someone who proudly identifies as a 'girltwink' a "binarist transmed TERF who deserves a brick to the face" because trans history is so routinely destroyed and forgotten.

Shocking twist, there is actually some debate about whether the testosterone dose was too high. Overall the kid seems to be doing better with it than without it.

There is literally no story here other than "Father Objects To Son's Happiness."

You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

The trans person they're writing about is now a happy trans adult. Because they can never find any actual harm, they have to manufacture outrage about purely baseless harm.

Moulton and Suozzi in favour, since people have been so weirdly intent on acting like McBride’s nonbinding strongly worded letter meant something because their signatures were on it

1. In a stunning new bill proposed by several New Hampshire republicans, transgender women could be charged with trespass for using the bathroom.

The bill is the first to apply to PRIVATE businesses.

It also ONLY applies to transgender women, not trans men.

1. For weeks, EITM has reported that Republicans would push a trans healthcare ban in their ACA negotiations.

Now, the plan is released, and it includes heavy restrictions on ACA plans, a medicaid ban, an EHB ban, and more.

Democrats must not capitulate.
Democrats Must Reject The Premise Of Trans Healthcare Bans In Republican Healthcare Offer
Republicans new healthcare bill would bar transgender healthcare as an essential health benefit, bar trans medicaid coverage, and would bar HSAs from considering trans healthcare medically necessary.

A woman in Saskatchewan needs surgery for a parathyroid issue and is being offered MAiD instead.

There’s no one in the province who can perform the procedure and the government won’t pay to send her elsewhere.

This is why disability advocates warn about assisted dying

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Conservative affirmative action strikes again. As the court tilts more conservative, those with ties to conservative justices are chosen over better attorneys. That's how a politicized judicial system works.
I assume Amit Agarwal was chosen to defend independent agencies at the Supreme Court today because he's a former Alito and Kavanaugh clerk with a conservative pedigree. But he is doing a very poor job, and I think a progressive advocate with subject matter expertise would've been far more effective.

What the social media ban assumes about our society is that the places where adults congregate to share ideas are never safe for children. And it’s wrong

more to the point imo, purposefully isolating youth & cutting them off from the vital safety of support systems that can build is flatly abusive. it's all but openly about preventing kids from finding out what is being done to them by authority figures in their lives is wrong and violent
And what makes the age of 16 safe to be online? What makes any age ever safe to be in this world? It’s not, it never was, and we shouldn’t wrap our children up in bubble wrap. We should demand a safer world for them instead, one in which they get to participate, fully

In the puberty ban consultation, before it was made permanent, academics like me told the Gov this was happening. We noted the risk of youth who are self-meding avoiding engagement with routine healthcare, leading to wider healthcare inequalities. Our testimony was dismissed as 'anecdotal evidence'
What did you think would happen when you restricted access to care?

It’s maddening that I just heard this tribunal decision covered on BBC News, which led with “Sandie Peggie wins her case,” expanded with “Sandie Peggie secures a partial victory,” then only on listening further did it become clear she actually lost on most of the substantive points she was pursuing.

Hormones are the most widely available medication in the western world. Most women over 50 are on HRT. Many older men take supplemental testosterone. These are widely accessible medications. You can't stop trans people from accessing them.
