We are attempting to move the date of this event as quite a few people who have expressed and interest can't make it.

My brother works at Heathrow. As I have the Flight Radar app on my phone I have offered him my services. (I think a bunch of swear words will be heading back to me, but sibling rivalry does not stop just because he is having a bad day!)

It's amazing how quicky we have adapted to saying a hearty goodbye to somebody in a meeting online, then seeing them two minutes later in the staff room.

People working from home, remember to put something on before you start a teams call (this is not advice from experience, but advice from my mind constantly worrying about doing it!)

One small victory at a time is how we get equity. And this is one.

Interesting debate at Queer Britain last night about the similarities and differences between transphobia and homophobia. Was somewhat de-railed by gender critical people wanting to debate biology but I'm used to that!

Crocks and socks is apparently acceptable this time around. I'm very happy about that!

So it seems as though I am permanently a He in my mum's care home now according to the residents, which is fine as it is one of my pronouns anyway. I'm interested to research other experience of trans people who have family members with dementia and what they experience.

Spent a week messing about on boats. Now back to the grind stone! I'm always secretly happy to get back to work, so I am clearly in the right job!

We so do! But there are rules that we can't, apparently!

To make it more weird, the nurse sent me a message on teams to assure me Tiddles is safely downstairs asleep in her clinic room.

Not saying we are all delightfully odd where we work, but somehow in a conversation I invented an imaginary clinic cat called Tiddles and one of the nurses just opened a door to let the imaginary cat through.

I share the deep disappointment in today's Supreme Court ruling, and the concerns about what this will mean for trans women going forward.

Today and every day, I stand in unwavering solidarity with the trans community.

We must never stop fighting for trans rights.

Big news today. My speech to text software has finally realised my name is Nat and not Nat's. No more endlessly manually deleting 's

Sat here with my fruit salad and chai seeds with a freshly brewed coffee alongside feeling like some influencer this morning.

I'm so hungry today. Just thought you would all like to know.
