i feel the same way about america's next leader.

Zack Polanski, a man in a black blazer and white shirt, stands smiling alongside Laila from Pride in Education. Laila wears a white blouse, a pinstriped vest, and a keffiyeh scarf. She is smiling and pointing toward a Trans+ History Week pin on Zack’s blazer lapel. Both are standing against a plain white wall.

If you look really closely you’ll see @zackpolanski.bsky.social is donning his Trans+ History Week badge early.

Trans+ History Week is May 4-10 this year. Download our resources: www.wearequeeraf.com/dotheworkbook/

I actually don't have words as to how angry I am.

Wonder what happened in these countries that people on student visas in the UK found themselves needing to apply for asylum instead of going home post 2021.

UK Labour are heartless bastards & apparently have bo idea whats happening in the world.

Transgender People, “Gay Conversion,” and “Lesbian Extinction”: What the Data Show A couple days ago (on Christmas, actually), The Telegraph ran a piece with the provocative title: “Lesbians facing ‘extinction’ as…

since The Atlantic is apparently reviving the "a was a feminine gay child, but if I was a kid today they would have 'transed' me" trope, here's an essay I wrote back in 2020 explaining why this is not true & there is no evidence to support it: juliaserano.medium.com/transgender-...

A minor league hockey team had a wiener dog race. Zero thoughts, just vibes and absolute chaos. A thing of beauty

PATCH NOTES 26.4.4

Gameplay balance:
• Betting on thermonuclear war removed
• Trans women hitbox increased again 🤪
• Fixed a bug where unpopular war and child rape scandal cancelled each other out, should see results in a few days
• Slightly increased temperature again
• Dogs are still good

"The CIA conspired to make me less cool than I was when I was 25" is the most succinct Gen X manifesto I've ever heard

Actually that is still an excerpt..

Longer version..

if you’re cis and you don’t get it this is LITERAL TORTURE

it will result in dead trans people

and with their other goal of making us “sexually explicit” for existing

you see the pipeline right?

we exist -> we’re jailed for it -> we’re tortured and die

WE NEED YOU TO STOP THIS

Cops when faced with an encampment or protest site, a vigil or an art work, they attack it reflexively at the level of aesthetics first, they rip down ornament or posters or decor, beauty offends and terrifies them

"Professor Jacob George is recused from *further* involvement on the Pathways clinical trial as a precaution.”

Am pleased they admit he was involved. But you can't cure bias after the fact and our lawyers will be writing to the MHRA about its ascientific 'concerns' about the trials.

Sir Genital Grievance

Badly photoshopped mashup between the robotic leader who's face is an amalgamation of Michael Myers, The Crow, and a human shrunken head and the current leader of the Labour Party, Sir Keir Starmer.

The three journalists who helped ruin Ava Cordero's life when she tried to stop Epstein in 2006 *currently* work at NBC News, New York Magazine, and News Corp Australia. The one at NBC News is covering... Epstein.

CNN is saying the Iranian attack happened after Trump “lost patience with negotiations”.

I don’t believe it. The negotiations were cover. This was always the plan. The scale of the military buildup showed that.

"We have shown that we don't have to accept being turned against each other. We can demand better without hating each other"

A new politics of hope was born this morning. We do not need to be the cruel nation that Badenoch, Starmer and Farage want. @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the Green Party have shown us we have a choice.

exactly what we've been telling them for 2 whole years now.

the right will never vote for labour and they've driven their entire base away with their neonazi tribute act.

Freedom in the Arts issues third legal letter on trans-inclusive guide - Arts Professional Campaign group Freedom in the Arts (FITA) has issued a third legal letter accusing the University of Leicester of providing "unlawful" advice to museums and

It's pretty contemptible, this stuff: using the vast wealth of billionaires to bully trans people into oblivion so we will be writing to the University of Leicester and offering our help, pro bono if necessary.

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

‘In the end, you feel blank’: India’s female workers watching hours of abusive content to train AI Women in rural communities describe trauma of moderating violent and pornographic content for global tech companies

when people talk about AI used in moderation of social media posts, you must remember there is always the human-in-the-loop, often a woman, often in the Global South, always dehumanised and forgotten

I’ve come to realize people think slurs are just words that hurt our feelings. No. Slurs, particularly the N-word, F-word, antisemitic terms etc. aren’t taboo because of that. It’s because historically when these terms are said they precede or pair with pitchforks, torches, lynchings & gas chambers.

With "Man in an Elmo Suit" as deputy.

In competitive authoritarianism (US right now) there's often a "loyal opposition" that's essential to the regime. They are so wedded to "decorum," they go along with rites & rituals that help regime prop up veneer of normalcy, undermining clear view of regimes actions & aims.

in addition to evoking the "deceiver" trope (he "fell prey" to trans/LGBTQ+ ppl), Newsom is the LEAST CULTURALLY NORMAL prominent Dem politician right now. he owns a winery. he married Kimberly Guilfoyle. when they split up he dated 19-year-old (when he was 38). he podcasts w/Steve Bannon, etc.

I’m sorry please correct me if I’m insane and wrong…

but is this newsom saying he “fell prey” to not being “culturally normal” because he was supportive of same sex marriage?

@kevinmckenna.co.uk i assume you and your colleagues will be pressing on the disgusting behaviour of the MHRA and Streeting? Now that the Tory and Labours authority on the gold standard of trans care Baroness Cass has said this is a political job. Streeting needs to go for assault on trans kids

Thanks for highlighting Leah. How strange it is to be subscribed to a block list that I'm on, weird. Also every person you've listed I follow too. I've unsubscribed now, if it's not accurate and will block people I follow it's of no use.
