They fit perfectly. Sox Therapist is a genius

Thank you to @zackpolanski.bsky.social for your clear support for the trans community. In a political climate where too many are stepping back, visible allyship from political leaders matters.

We were proud to meet Zack at launch of the Trans Lives Report by @transactualuk.bsky.social

Generic adjustable one. These purple ones seem to be pretty much the only adjustable option that doesn’t cost a fortune to ship to the UK. This sort of thing: ebay.us/m/tbH6Gy

I was worried it would be crappy but it’s nice and solid and well made.

a tiny light brown dachshund is being held up by a human who is out of frame. they are at a beautiful snowy mountain range that looks straight out of a Pinterest photo. the dachshund pup, Frankie, is wearing a full body puffer jacket that matches her light brown fur perfectly.

This is Frankie. She just got a fancy new puffer and thinks she’s better than everyone now. And she is correct. 13/10 (IG: frankielasaucisse)

Two partly made socks in shades of blue. One is on a mini circular needle and has a slip stitch rib pattern with ending in a sort of Celtic knot on top of the foot. The other is on a purple sock gauge loom and is a helical stripe with grey and varigated blue yarn, it is fo a much larger person.

WIPs on needles and my new loom. A cunning plan: when my hands get tired and I need to have a break from knitting socks…. I can knit socks!!!
The loom is fun. Super fast for stockinette but a bit of a faff for purl, there must be a better way?!

My sock loom came so I’m just starting my first!!

Well, yes, trans people are getting drugs; yes, from entirely unregulated sources; yes, without counselling; yes, without blood tests; yes, they are self-administering; yes, without clinical oversight; yes, risking long term harm; yes, it is highly suboptimal.

What did you think would happen?

Oh yes this is the proof Cass is relying on:

Help us appeal the High Court’s judgment on trans rights.

We always knew this would be a long and hard fight. We are going nowhere.

We will fight until the battle is won 🏳️‍⚧️

the fact that the Iranian government ALSO murders lots of Iranians does not make being bombed constantly somehow less shitty. i know this is apparently a hard concept for some

“I’d like you to tell me what *you* think you contribute to the team”…

the burden of proof is on the people who just wiped out a grade school.

Hey, please take your meds and have some water. We need you. Be good to yourself.

Is the proof in the room with us right now?

At least 148 dead after reported strike on school, Iran says Iran has blamed the US and Israel for the strike; the US is looking into reports of the incident, while the IDF says it is

Utterly horrifying. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Nope. We don't have to do this. The courageous act would be to refuse. Jingoist slop like this is an enormous factor in why the US has been terrorizing the world for decades. There are no heroes bombing Iran.

Isn't there a parliamentary process to take us into war?

Green sock with a frog face on the toe and several crouching frogs round the cuff. The main part of the sock is in stripes of olive and a variegated brighter set of greens.

Knitted rectangle, being one side of a tube scarf. There are black and white geometric designs too and bottom with three silhouetted birds on a wire in the middle. The black yarn is a gradient to the birds in particular have shades of light grey as well.

Infinity scarf commissioned by my mum, just blocking here on a towel. My first time double knitting. 🧶 #knitting

Also very much capable of doing so unprompted

The best thing I have seen since Starmer’s letter calling the electorate a bunch of bastards

Five things you can talk about for five minutes unprepared…?

Oh boy. So many. Um…

1. Any of a dozen fibre crafts or the history of textiles
2. Constitutional history and law
3. Sourdough bread
4. Education: philosophy and practice
5. Trans rights, medical care and the politics surrounding it all

Only five minutes?

The solved mystery of Deinochirus
The Beatles' early years
Sims 2 genetics and which ones can be granular
Why you can't survive a fight with a "raptor"
Dog and cat food quality

Screw unprepared, I will do this UNPROMPTED

It looks like the RAF were involved in the US/Israeli attacks on Iran.

Grew up watching a Trans woman win Big Brother, hearing music with lyrics that celebrated Trans people, seeing folk flourish as themselves. Now we’re going backwards

I will ALWAYS stand against the politicisation and degradation of human rights. Solidarity to our Trans family 🏳️‍⚧️ 💪🏻

The G&D result feels like peak British Bluesky - something about which we can be genuinely, wholesomely delighted, whilst also being vicious, vindictive cunts.
