Solidarity, mate. I was done with the week by Wednesday…

I’m spending a few days in Bournemouth. It’s okay, but a lot more hilly than I remember. I do feel sad that my mobility issues mean I can’t easily walk down the beach, because sand & walking sticks aren’t great together. I love swimming, but can’t risk getting in & out of the water on my own.

My neighbour totally surprised me when I was in the garden, trying to ignore what an unruly mess it is. She and her partner hoisted a lawnmower over the fence and then cut the grass and weeds. They tidied up everything and chatted away in Russian (?) while I stood there gobsmacked!

This is another terrible use of AI that will endanger so many people, BUT the comments of this post are glorious! I learned six new swear words from it!

I don’t know where you’re from, but this is the most British insult I’ve seen in ages. I love it!

UK Supreme Court Rules That Trans Women Aren’t Women under the Equality Act 2010 The legal definition of a woman in the UK now excludes trans people: This is what it means for Trans+ rights in the country

Oh God no. Alongside this terrible news, the court also “redefines” what a lesbian is.
If you want to take on Trans women AND Lesbians, you are going to be destroyed.

Happy International Asexual Day! Asexuality is a positive thing for me. It’s not a result of the abuse and violence I survived. It’s a gift that I can be true to myself. #InternationalAceDay

I feel like there is a misconception that survivors don’t know how strong they are. Most of us know. Most of us also know that if we had more support and resources, we wouldn’t have to be so strong and resilient.

This sounds so much like the people who would listen to me talk about why I ran away from home because of my CSA experiences, and then come up to me and say, “But they’re your family! You can’t just leave them!”
Sadly it’s only Black and Brown people who say that.

I’m featured in this video about Queer Elders: youtu.be/pUdH4J9sF8I?...

Zine page that reads: I am not bisexual anymore. I am asexual, and although the colours have changed, the bigotry has not.

I was straight for 22 years, bisexual for 32 years, then asexual since 2024. Racism, fatphobia, ableism and bigotry has been a constant thing for my entire life. Queer and Trans spaces are just as bad as straight spaces.

I’m definitely up for the Discord.
