‘What have I done wrong?’ Trans kids go back to school bathroom bans in Scotland Councils rushing to put policies on school bathrooms in place leave trans children facing confusion, distress and the risk of being outed.

Edinburgh parents and teachers, if you're impacted by these new policies about school bathrooms, please get in touch with us at ResistingTransphobiaEdinburgh@proton.me

THREAD🧵: Schools & teachers need to be clear.

If you are failing to affirm a trans/non-binary child's gender, incl. allowing them to use the toilet that matches their gender, you are harming them.

You are *harming* children.

Whatever reasons you may have for doing it, you are harming them...

The book Building a Debugger, featuring a robot designing a complex debugging machine on a drafting board

The book placed in front of a tortie cat

Building a Debugger is now officially released!

It guides you through building a whole native x64 debugger from scratch, dispelling all the magic and teaching you a ton about operating systems as it goes.

Even if you don't care about building a debugger, you can read it to your cat.

RIP Marcel Duchamp, you would have loved Skibidi Toilet

These are beautiful and I'm so honoured to have inspired this!

This is a direct attack on me explaining how Two Point Museum works 😤

This is an HONOUR and you should also check out Py's art 👀💜

TWIN PEAKS PIE DAY 🥧🍒

To clarify, he did this to ME 😤

Success is confusing the algorithm into no longer giving me ads for women's weight loss programs and switching to whatever the fuck this is 😤👏

Instagram can't tell what gender I am, but they do know I am SWEATY and this makes me a bad parent??

Added! 🥰

Wilkie Collins' book Armadale contains four characters called Allan Armadale. Another of his books has the premise "twins but in love with the same blind woman but one of them is blue for medical reasons". I'm saying, sod Chat GPT, get your plots from laudanum.

Any chance you want to be friends on there? 👀 I just started playing again at the start of Jan and need more friends who are still active

Gender Community Lending Library Visit the post for more.

Did you know there's a UK lending library dedicated to books by and about trans and queer people?

It's free to join and use, and they will post books anywhere in the UK.

Their collection started out focused on academic books on Transgender Studies, out of reach to so many.

Yessss, I got a bunch of shiny Ralts the other week

Is this Pokemon Go or something else? I have got a bunch of shinies there in the last couple of weeks

Roses are red,
I think you're fit,

we are depriving generations of kids of the formative experience of stumbling upon some weird horny sci-fi or fantasy book that was absolutely not written for them, which is the kind of thing that makes reading feel exhilarating, like you are unlocking the grownup world’s fun secrets

It's high time we stopped being measured about how we discuss the reactionary panic surrounding trans youth.

The conservative position is that parents have a right to abuse their children in any way they wish, and that abuse regarded is righteous and justified if the goal is to prevent transition.

Sending you lots of hugs, I'm glad you're able to go see your family 🥺💜🫂

Our SNAP benefits did not load today as scheduled.

I am panicking, I have no other grocery money right now.

A lot of the queer discourse is explained by the fact that transfemininity is hypervisibile to the point of being considered a marker of the wider queer community's aesthetic, but trans women themselves are entirely de-centered.

Also to be clear, hope is NOT toxic positivity. Hope is not passive.

My hope is active, determined, protective, viscous, and vengeful.

Oh hi there! May I offer you a cup of tea in these troubling times?

I do not want to see pictures of that one Based DOGE Zoomer with the broccoli haircut anymore. He looks like if one of the Ghoulies was 1) real and 2) rich enough that his dad owned a sailboat. He looks a toilet brush that somehow developed the ability to become libertarian. Enough.
