RISE (by Simon Hodges)

They hemmed the last few in the hole, trans and ally alike.
Shut the cage, screaming, laughing, readying the gasoline.
“We can speak again!” they say, coating, splashing us
“Why do you not hear us?” cried the cis women allies.
“You are traitors”, as the match was lit.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

This guy used to be one of my heroes and his stuff now is woeful. Who is this for? Constantly trying to present as a dangerous provocateur, a truth spitter, if you're offended GET OUT but here he is flogging vodka with a lie about someone being offended by dogs? A 6yo yelling "poo bum willy!"

This social media ban for kids is so damaging for trans kids. Many of the remote communities only have one or two out trans peeps. These kids are being cut off from the only other people on this planet that are just like them.

There’s nothing radical about educating young children about sexuality, gender identity and same-sex relationships. It’s not indoctrination to let kids know heterosexuality is not compulsory, and it’s not sexualising them to teach them about sexuality.

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Update: We've now filed a revised legal case against Chief Constable Stephen Watson of GMP Police for refusing to apologise for the force’s historic persecution of LGBT+ people, including under James Anderton. We’ve also submitted new evidence. 🏳️‍🌈📄

"Their effects are not permanent, and once a child lets their blocking treatment lapse, puberty will just continue as normal."

The effects are only permanent on trans youth apparently.
Because it’s cis kids.
The NHS will quite casually give cis kids whatever treatment they need, even PBs👇
No trials. No concerns about side effects. No moral panic.

Thoughts with all the people affected and their families with the awful incident on the train in Cambridgeshire.

Thank you to all the emergency services and brave members of the public.

Reminder of the work that people do every day to serve the public.

The fact that both the WSJ and the Guardian have retracted their trans and leftist stories related to the shooter and now a day later a new one is being formed about a possible "trans roommate or lover" shows how desperate they are to pin this on someone who is LGBTQ+

REALLY not sure about @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social's "pick people at random" system to decide policy.

For small minority groups like trans people it will mean we are, as usual, locked out of spaces where decisions about us are made, just like Labour/Tories/Reform.
Voters' voices are being shut out of British politics. Your Party has a radical plan to change that | Jeremy Corbyn
At our conference in November we will use a jury service-type model to allow members to discuss and decide policy, strategy and even the name of our party, says Your Party co-founder Jeremy Corbyn

The right are all, "membership doesn't equate votes, look at Labour under JC"

And like all lies there is an element of truth to that.

However what's important is what they do. Do they sit and never talk to their friends or do they go door knocking?

There is a reason I think 100,000 GPEW members

Which shows the NHS clinics are deliberately held back.
The ‘Transit’ gender clinic in Spain has a 3 WEEK waiting list! 😳😳😳

It covers a population of 8 million, (equivalent to the population of Scotland & Wales combined, or 1/7th of the population of England) It has a total of 43 staff, a majority of whom are part-time, working 6-7 hours per week!
Trans health waiting lists are a political choice
I’m just back from an awesome trans healthcare conference in Norway (blog on that to follow). Here I wanted to share information from a presentation by the founder of the transit trans health…
