Jacey is a suitable combo of my actual name for privacy reasons

Queer Bluesky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now?

I came out as bi (later redefined as pan) at 16.

Then trans at 32.

Taking bets at what I come out as at 48 (if it’s every 16 years) or 64 (if it doubles). Good odds available on poly 😉

Now I’m somewhere between 32 and 46

Poppy pizzas, clearly not quiches before you pipe up. Regurgitated from my Twitter account

We will fight them on the quiches

I'm a bit 😐 on people going "this is why Labour, the Lib Dems and Greens need to team up!" coz...those parties are nowhere near each other politically. You think Labour and the Lib Dems will give up their pro-austerity policy? That Labour will reverse its anti-trans legislation?

We tried to place this story - very expensive polling, the first of its kind, strong quantitative data about what trans people feel about Britain: bluntly there is no better way to tell the story - with the BBC but it said it was "too weak".

But it will pick up any old piece of transhating garbage.

A person replies to Your Party Scotland with a screenshot. Their post says "I can confirm replies remain disabled, any comment on the transphobic landlord?" The screenshot is of a post from Your Party Scotland that says, "Your Party Scotland has yet to form and decide its policies at our founding conference. So we don't have any formal policies yet. But I would be astonished if, once we have, those questions will be addressed. Trans Liberation and rent control supporters are both very active in Your Party." Your Party Scotland then responds to this individual's comment and screenshot with "Until Your Party Scotland has formally constituted itself and made democratic decisions, we are not in a position to comment on much of anything unfortunately. In the meantime I'm sure individual YP activists will be happy to share their individual views with you."

So when myself and others demand answers on where Your Party stands on trans rights, it is -beyond- frustrating that we are told to wait until the members vote at conference on their position. A -position- on trans rights is how to make healthcare easier to access, not if we should have rights.

Should trans staff be allowed to use female NHS changing rooms? VOTE NOW A TRIBUNAL is currently being held after a nurse was left hyperventilating following an encounter with a trans colleague in the women’s changing room. Karen Danson, 46, told an employment hea…

Dozens of Labour MPs warn of chaos for firms over gender recognition advice Nearly 50 backbenchers write to business secretary over potential costs and legal ‘minefield’ of upcoming guidance

“We do not believe the EHRC has provided satisfactory responses to questions around how they expect businesses to implement such stringent expectations.”

Nearly 50 backbenchers have written to Peter Kyle warn about the EHRC’s upcoming guidance:
www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

It’s important to remember that under the 1999 Regulations and the Croft case, refusing to allow a trans employee to use the toilet corresponding to their gender identity amounted to direct discrimination and a detriment in employment. This had nothing to do with indirect discrimination, […]

Be a shame if the trans community came together and ruined the Sun's day by hijacking their poll with the correct answer

Also love the blatant transphobia and sob story for the TERFs in an article asking for people to vote on this. Not trying to influence the results at all 😂

Like the answer to a trans woman asking “what toilet should i use, should i use the mens?“ to them really is just, “you shouldnt exist actually, the law now says you are not legitimate and thats your problem“

This clip is really horrible just fyi the minister just dead eyed refusing to answer pointing at the supreme court and the ehrc claiming they were very clear with the obvious implication

Pretty shocking, this, from a barrister and former Lord Chancellor. Shabana Mahmood, disgracefully peddling misinformation about the Human Rights watchdog.

This guy’s leader used Brianna’s death and presence of her mother for cheap point scoring during PMQs. Since then he has done everything in his power to make life harder for trans people, particularly trans teens with his government’s policies (PB Ban, Cass) and lack of action over the SC ruling.

Met Police says it will no longer investigate non-crime hate incidents The move comes as an investigation into Father Ted creator Graham Linehan is dropped, after his arrest over a post on X.

1993: Stephen Lawrence is murdered by racists.
1999: The MacPherson Inquiry recommends recording of non-crime hate incidents.
2005: After the Discrimination Law Review, non-crime hate incidents begin being recorded by UK police.
2025: Mainstream transphobia ends a harm reduction policy that worked.

3/ In 2022, Parliament actually passed new primary legislation to reaffirm the legality of the non-crime hate incidents regime.

Now we have a prime minister and a police commissioner who believe they can abolish laws by executive fiat.

Students: cost of living is soaring and we can hardly afford to feed ourselves

Government: I hear you - how about higher fees and more debt?

EHRC tweeted, Human rights are the basic rights and freedoms that belong to every person in the world. Our guide takes you through what human rights are and who they apply to. You'll also discover just how deep their roots go in British history. Check it out: a link.

So the word “every” does not include… whom?

Agreed.

And anyone who thinks Labour will equalise hate crime against trans people after such interference really needs to give their heads a wobble.

Starmer is a fascist and the Met have long been the Govs lapdogs.

and don’t say it was a joke. The dude hasn’t written a joke since 2010.

Hope you’re proud in your part of making shit like this acceptable. You’ve shifted the window of acceptable discourse about trans people so far to the extreme that telling people to punch trans women in the genitals is just fine now.

I’m sure you’ll applaud when it’s other minorities next… 🖕

Starmer and the Met Chief Constable interfered in this case. That's a major red flag and public scandal, abuse of public office, and a collapse of the rule of law.

When transphobes from Graham Linehan to JK Rowling and others are effectively granted immunity that's a problem.

The FA are running an ad based on the slogan "there's room for [insert most things] but no room for racism".

They even say there is 'room for safe spaces'.

Just not for trans people, obviously, who are banned.

The Scottish Green Party just voted to reject the legitimacy of the EHRC as the British equalities regulator following the decision to override the Equalities Committee to install the new chair Mary-Ann Stephenson.

Fixed it for you, Wes Streeting.

The EHRC have ditched their interim advice. They are running scared from scrutiny, but their draft Code is a bigger threat than ever.

The EHRC has ditched its 'interim update'.

But their draft Code of Practice is a bigger threat than ever.

Here's what we need to do now 🧵

I’ll admit I joined the Greens somewhat out of self-interest as a trans person, feeling they were the only ones who seemed to give a damn about us on the whole.

But it’s wonderful to see Zack consistently stand up for the values of most of the left in a passionate and full-throated manner.

British.

Rowling, whose best-selling young adult series and accompanying movie franchise sparked a pop culture phenomenon in the 2000s, has drawn backlash in recent years for her outspoken views against the transgender community. When asked by Decider if she knew about a fan "boycott" of Rowling's work, Knightley, 40, said she was "not aware of that."

"I'm very sorry," said Knightley, who was joined by her "Woman in Cabin 10" director Simon Stone. "You know, I think we're all living in a period of time right now where we're all going to have to figure out how to live together, aren't we? And we've all got very different opinions. I hope that we can all find respect."

JK Rowling has denied the nazi persecution of LGBTQ+ people in the Holocaust, uses the money she earns to legislate trans people out of existence and asked her followers to photograph women going to the washroom.

Keira Knightley: we all gotta figure out how to live together
