Image of a megaphone on a pink and purple background. Text reads: Trans people are being challenged, misgendered and harassed whether they use a facility that aligns with their sex assigned at birth, or not. Many gender non conforming women also report more challenges in gendered spaces.

And now Basement Jaxx for April! Today is getting expensive...

Tinlicker tickets booked for next March 🥳

Azure Front Door is a really bad service to have a problem with - especially when the portal itself is down. Feeling sorry for a lot of IT ops folks today.

Looks like they're hosted on Azure and Azure itself is having a bad day. Can't open the portal but the service status is all green. Downdetector has picked it up though.

Looks like Natwest are having a bad day - www.natwest.com seems unavailable.

Thank you for sharing 💜

Sending much love and support. This too shall pass 🫂

Lies! I spent an entire day there and it wasn't enough 🤩

Yep, got blocked 🙄

What's your view on the erosion of trans rights, removal of trans healthcare and marginalisation/demonisation of trans people that's either being carried out by or tacitly supported by this government?

It went well, I got lovely feedback and I'm through to the next round! 🥳 Two more to go...

Felt really comfortable and myself and I think that came across. This would be my first job as Hannah and it's not a small one hence why it's a bit daunting.

Got an in-person second-round interview tomorrow. Feeling mostly ok about it but still a bit daunting. This could be a really good job for me so making sure I'm extra prepared.

Necessary evil in my line of work though occasionally useful, especially when job hunting as I am at the moment!

Mmmm, feels so good when people I used to work with are looking at my LinkedIn profile at 10pm on a Saturday night 🙃

I see you creeping...

I think about this a lot.

This hit 😞

I should add - the fact it's this unclear and nuanced to folks like us who are very close to it means the average workplace stands no chance. Which is where pre-emptive compliance, misinformation and well-intentioned discrimination will occur.

EHRC formally abandons single-sex toilet stipulation | Good Law Project The EHRC’s rushed guidance caused harm from the moment it was released. But now they’re u-turning.

Yes for discrimination. But the bit about toilets applies to Service Providers specifically. Good Law Project got the EHRC to concede on this very point: goodlawproject.org/update/ehrc-...

My understanding is that if the toilet is not publicly available (i.e. the org is not a service provider in this context) then the EA doesn't apply...

If it is a public toilet but used by staff too then yes, nightmare!

Unless my understanding is incorrect, something that I feel is missed here is that the Equality Act applies to Service Providers whereas toilets in the workplace are covered by The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992

I love it when things are so clear that the question can't be answered.

Urgh. After I told a man hitting on me that I'm gay, he thought for a moment and said "I'd still totally do you".

Thanks I guess... But also very no. And probably not thanks either.

Send help, there are stairs in my house 🧗

I am now six inches tall 😬

Don't engage. Just block. They want to push their rage bait on here. Don't give them the satisfaction.

Capture of the BBC news website that reads "Zelensky to make case for missiles at White House, after Trump and Putin agree meeting"

Am I the only one that cares about sentence structure and completely got the wrong idea here?

Come on BBC...

Great read overall and delightfully acerbic... couple of bits of detail I'd add (see my comments) but generally, what a fucking mess they've made!

Frightened and desperate: EHRC anti-trans campaign loses its momentum A week of absolute scenes leaves the organisation in limbo.

EHRC anti-trans campaign loses its momentum - a week of absolute scenes has left the organisation in limbo. Here's what happened, why it happened, and what it all means iandunt.substack.com/p/frightened...

Still, great read, rightfully skewering the EHRC and the omnishambles of their own making.
