Cold day! Fortunately, a short walk from dropping the kid off at school is Casco, one of my favourite cafes. It’s warm in here.

I had a 2010 MacBook Air in a cupboard in my office. I was still using it up until a couple of years ago, and the hardware is still good. My kid needs a machine for homework, so I put Linux on it and it actually feels fast again. He loves it!

Reminder:

If you support Harry Potter in any way, you are directly funding legal attacks on trans people.

There is no separating the art from the artist in this case.
#UK #JKR In what comes as a surprise to nobody, JK Rowling has embarked on her next phase of her path to radicalization. She now also offers to fund legal cases - provided applicants meet certain criteria. jkrwf.org?fbclid=IwQ0x...

I have a few things from Nora, and I love them all! You’ll often see me wearing my trans pride one. Here’s a recent pic of me which looks like I have attitude (but actually I had something in my teeth I think…)

Request for info:

If you know of any organisation etc. which has announced publicly that it has changed its policies/practices as a result of the Supreme Court decision or the EHRC update - please comment it below.

Trying to collate some of this.

I don’t really talk about being trans much on this account. I have an alt where I talk about it a lot more.

It’s a big part of who I am though. I might be more open here. I also feel like I should put something on my blog about coming out and transitioning, but it’s a lot, especially right now.

I got my ears pierced. Just the lobes (my first piercings, very vanilla). The technician described the pain as “spicy”. Then she described the other ear as “spicier”. Apparently it’s an adrenaline thing. Anyway, a minor victory in an otherwise fucking appalling week but I’m still chalking it up.

lovely wordpress site they've got there. be a shame if something happened to it.
This is straight up nazi shit. The nazis published propaganda on Jewish crime. If this were blackcrimeuk or immigrantcrimeuk everyone would see it for the bigoted shit that it is.

Fuck the EHRC

EHRC have released an update on their single sex space guidance!!

They are now stating that trans people can be excluded from both biologically sexed spaces!!!

My analysis of the EHRC "interim update" is out — in the form of an FAQ — laying out my thoughts on the state of the law, and how employers and service providers can best remain trans-inclusive.

Just my academic thoughts, not legal advice, but hopefully of use.

What does the EHRC interim update mean for workplaces and service providers?
An interim EHRC update instructs UK orgs to segregate Trans+ people in public single-sex spaces - how much weight does it carry and what does it mean for workplaces and service providers?

When I was taking my first tentative steps in my transition, the lovely staff in my local Lush always noticed and supported me with kind words and compliments. They have a special place in my heart. Also their bubble-bars are awesome.
We’ve partnered with Lush & My Genderation to speak out on behalf of trans & non-binary people. Our dream for trans liberation is front & centre in Lush stores for the next few weeks, sales of all Liberation bath bombs raise donations for us & My Genderation.

If you want to help trans people right now - send a letter to your MP. Ask for a meeting. You can start with the template below. And feel free to mention the disgraceful behaviour of the Labour Government in Parliament today!

Trans people in the UK are (finally) getting organized!

This letter, started by a single passionate ally, has garnered nearly 1000 signatures in just a few days.

Now, two trans rights orgs are throwing their weight behind it, demanding MPs act

Sign it. Share it.
