Bitter sweet
Reflections on trans awareness month
Putting this out here for #TransgenderAwarenessMonth becausea) i am increasingly sceptical of the usefulness of the season and b) allies with no heart are as much an issue as outright bigots.
Mean it - or go home!

No? What would you call it?

Yes. I’m buying one tomorrow, because guess what, I’m also a primary carer for my 86 year old bed-bound neighbour. It’s fucking ridiculous.

England is now experiencing a significant Covid wave, after 10 months of relative quiet
The latest Covid situation in England and a look at where NHS services are as we head into winter
"Well it was nice while it lasted. We had an unprecedented 10 months of low and stable Covid levels in England - but this is now over. We are seeing a definite, significant wave of Covid infections across England."

I was previously eligible, but not this time. Apparently clinical vulnerability doesn’t count any more. This is so short-sighted of the NHS - I’m gutted.

Yes. Also unfused joints make a big difference.

Definitely. I was about 3 and had a repeated dream of flying down the stairs. So I did it when there was no-one about, caught my ankle and gave it a slight twist on the bottom step, otherwise fine. I never told anyone about it though. I remember the tunnel vision and the air rushing past my ears.

Sorry, will be busy out facing the fascists in Manchester this weekend rather than talking about it with liberals like Arlo.

Week one in Trumpland: The first step is seeing what’s in front of our faces
We should resist the voices attempting to tell us it’s all fine
I wrote this about the media's first big test of Trump 2.0, and how poorly it scored. On the tedious, vital work of seeing what's in front of our faces for the next four years.

Well, actually do some work before you open your gob? Sorry you don’t want to go there, but that’s your choice and your problem.

Are you on purposely trying to fuck off the entire UK trans movement? TSN has done huge amounts of work. If you want to know about them, maybe go and look at their Twitter.
