Looking to speak to queer people who've been diagnosed with endometriosis for an article about our experiences - UK only please. 💛

Final balcony harvest of the year 🍅

The only AI I care about is the IRL voice changer in scream 2 & 3

Does marrying a man mean you aren't gay? Gaylors are divided I hear you say I'm "suffering from CompHet" when the coke's got you brave

I wrote something silly about Gaylors and the sapphic summer of discontent

Meet the content creators fighting back against the 'womanosphere' Is the womanosphere coming for us all?

For Glamour, I explored the rise of the womanosphere and the women using their platforms to fight back:

Sex Matters are trying to force the ponds to operate on a trans-exclusive basis, despite users of the ponds having voted against such an approach.

Is your first lesbian breakup really the worst you'll ever go through? While you can’t really compare one person’s heartbreak to another's, TikTok can.

For Metro, I investigated TikTok’s theory that your first wlw breakup is the absolute worst type you’ll ever go through: metro.co.uk/2025/09/20/f...

Big daylight doesn't want us talking about this, but the nights are really drawing in

Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards We demand that the UK Government immediately commits to not introducing a digital ID cards. There are reports that this is being looked at.

One of the unexpected things I've learned from my advocacy for trans people is how malignant parts of the State can be, how it can misuse data for positively evil purposes. It's taught me people can't be safe with a digital ID card and so I've signed this. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

When bisexuals were erased from the Stonewall monument narrative, many, even within some queer and queer-friendly circles that I saw, treated it as a hostile yet somewhat random if not ridiculous move. It was anything but random 👇

I Lake-baited myself 😭

Understanding what the far-right thinks of bisexuality will help us fight for all queer rights | Xtra Magazine In the imagination of the far-right, bisexuality represents everything wrong with the modern world. So they’re trying to erase it

For Xtra, I explored how the far right conceives of and discusses bisexuality, and why we need to understand that in order to fight for all queer rights:

I wrote about why I dislike the arguement that tradwives are just fetishists

Man, this is the first time I've wished I was still on twitter

Bought some boujie crisps at a corner shop & the uncle behind the counter said "ohh, you've got fancy taste. Pricey". BRO they're your prices 😭

We didn't have the opportunity to do anything big for Bi+ Vis Day this year, but there will be a pub meet up on the Saturday before, likely in Islington. Details tbc.

Huh. I guess all those patriots didn't just have a load of British flags already laying around.

It's pretty obvious that incitement to violence (ostensibly a police matter) is OK with this government as long as the targets are trans. Unless the message is that you can say whatever you like online with no consequences

They’re happy with racist intimidation via racist displays outside the homes of people who happen to be asylum seekers too and have nothing to say about recent racist attacks other than “I love flags!!”

Police should focus on ‘streets not tweets’, says Wes Streeting after Graham Linehan arrest Health secretary criticises Tory policing record after Father Ted co-creator arrested over posts on transgender issues

Obviously the answer to this is ‘they’re saying this to court transphobes’, but this shows just how reactionary and morally inconsistent this Labour party is. How can you be the party of the Online Safety Act and then imply that online hate speech is a lesser issue than street crime?

Saw three teens on one (stolen) lime bike. London is the future.

There's a week and a half to go and our programme is almost full!

I want to hear from bi+ spoken word artists and poets in London to come join our line up! Tell your writer mates to get in touch!

not only are labour actively courting reform voters by being as bigoted as possible but they then have the nerve to say to the rest of us 'if you dont vote labour reform will win!'.

Title: Gender Census 2025. Text: If you can't easily put yourself into just one of these two boxes, you are invited to take part. Illustration: Two boxes, each with photos of relevant dictionary pages.

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

survey.gendercensus.com

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

That tweet about "people who've only lived in small towns are scared of cities, people who've only lived in cities are scared of small towns, people who've lived in both are only scared of small towns" proves more & more true

Disputed or debunked claims about migration and crime in the UK As politicians face criticism for promoting misleading data, here are some claims that do not bear scrutiny

Gotta regularly remind myself that there are people out there who believe stuff like "1 in 12 people in London are illegal immigrants"

Tattoo-regretTok, renter-brainism, and the fascist creep Perhaps the real recession indicator was the tattoos we regretted along the way

For this month's substack, I wrote about subscription model capitalism and the rise of body fascism - and what that means for body modification
