having a crashout about your bad movie take spiral into web of claims that podcasters are mi6 millionaires with occasional light misgendering is certainly one way to prove how normal you are!

the speech and language therapist asks me to say who I’d like to model my voice after without listing any more of the original broadway cast of company and I simply smile. does not he know of the many other Sondheim recordings

‘new trick’ twice, clearly the trans medicines are affecting my cognitive function and so should be banned

you gotta still try it though

increasingly concerned that suing is going to accomplish nothing, given the courts’ new trick of disregarding written law when it suits an anti-trans interpretation, and the new fun trick that ‘no I don’t want to be around transes’ is a ‘legitimate aim’

British trans healthcare: you have to laugh or you’ll (action that would make you ineligible for further treatment)

they didn’t even call me a good girl!

my GIC gave me the wrong weight to get down to for surgery, so I busted my arse to get to there and then they said ‘oops lose another ten kilos and get back to us chubs’. fun jokes with the doctor lads

give the bastards what for (submit meekly to their absurd demands while trying to advocate for the healthcare you deserve)

on one level it’s the state’s loss that it indoctrinated me with an irrational reverence for it and made me want to help my fellow citizens only to create conditions that made that impossible. on another level it’s very much my loss, I would’ve been a great and maybe happy Jane Normalwoman

I tried so fucking hard to be normal, have had at this point three different ‘proper’ career opportunities in public service that have just failed to work because I was unwilling to shrink myself to pretend to be anything other than trans, and unfortunately it seems it’s unemployability as a result

@edsbs.bsky.social @hollyanderson.bsky.social can’t fit a field in there but the oldest English speaking university in the world has something to say

you are a senior member in a party almost all of whose leadership would answer no to all of these questions if asked point blank by the sun

unless you’re trans or part of my immediate family I will now forever treat you with suspicion, because according to this data even if you’re friends with someone like me you’re still more likely than not to oppose me having healthcare

Jesus Christ. fuck every single person in this awful country. if anyone I interact with is more likely than not to think I’m a danger to women who shouldn’t be allowed to use toilets or access the healthcare I need to stay alive, I am simply not going to help any of them ever again

if a decade of ‘visibility’ has turned even those people who count us among their nearest and dearest against our rights, then we obviously need to do something else, fast

if fewer than half the people in the country who claim to have trans friends and family members think I should be allowed to use women’s toilets, then it’s clear that “representation!!” is not sufficient to make this hellscape liveable

awful country. easy to blame media but the public are willing to lap up propaganda about anyone who is part of the Other

if most people don’t believe people should be allowed to *socially* transition (which is fucking nothing, let’s be honest here) then they simply do not believe that trans people are morally equivalent to cis people. if this is the case then trans people are frankly justified in doing (redacted)

thanks yougov for confirming that the majority of the British public believe that I am a dangerous pervert. this can only have good implications

jon you’re a good guy and your work means a lot to this particular trans person

never post at Jesse singal. you’ll both get dirty and the pig will get a smug column out of it

This is incredibly helpful information Jon, thanks!

so he’d go at worst 4-8 at FAU is what I’m hearing

did kevin kelley work out at Presbyterian? obviously any d1 college has better resources than them so they should hire him and he’ll do great there

gonna be on this website for a while, because bloody hell there are a lot of nazis on the other one

@joeyswearwords.bsky.social sup

oppenheimer? more like stoppenheimer :) I’m going to the edinburgh fringe today to get drunk in various parks wish me luck

this is the worst of all possible worlds, she’ll not only win but get appointed as home secretary
