The NHS is changing trans people back to birth sex on file, meaning we will not be treated appropriately for our bodies.

This is deadly, completely unacceptable, and the result of hateful far right ideology in our politics and healthcare.

Just got a call from a lovely but very nervous Dr, who advised I wouldn't be routinely screened for breast cancer because I'm not indicated as being "biologically female" on the central NHS database and my biology wouldn't indicate I'm at risk.

My records have been altered, which is upsetting.

You’ll notice that new developments in generative AI are always accompanied by new ways of depicting women without their consent—undermining their autonomy and harassing them—almost like it’s a pillar of the technology and its evolution

No, sorry, all I've got is mental illness.

Hey friends. After having open heart surgery in Dec and another procedure in July, I've been left in 10k+ debt while recovering. During this, we were also laid off from Skullgirls. To try to help dig myself out, I have begun listing things on eBay: ebay.com/usr/mshinzan

Worth noting, most of that billion wasn't even on the service itself, but because of bad investments and other deals made by executives.

Canada Post “lost” 1 billion dollars last year?

How about, “it cost Canadians 1 billion dollars to have a national postal service” which works out to costing about $25 a year per person (population of Canada in 2024 = 40 million). Seems like a pretty reasonable cost to me.

Julie S. Lalonde @julieslalonde.bsky.social · 20d

"Canada Post is on track to lose money" Hum. Duh. It cost less than a toonie to send a letter across Canada.

"Canada Post is a service and not a business" was common knowledge until late stage capitalism brain rotted most people into think if it ain't making money for shareholders, it's failing.

So the most ethical billionaire just dropped new merch and it's the most Hitlerian piece of jewelry I have ever seen. That is an iron cross and eight SS lightning bolts. Eight being significant because of what it represents in Nazi dogwhistles (88 specifically).

Actual Hitler worship shit.

Politicians who meet fascists half way, are just fascists.

Newsom is all about publicity & nothing about integrity.

It’s been depressing watching American ppl hero-worship a power crazed sell-out. It’s not just Kimberly Guilfoyle & cosmetic surgery he has in common with the Trumps. READ this:

1. Yesterday, the press gave Gavin Newsom favorable coverage for signing pro-LGBTQ+ bills.

Little noticed, however, was that he vetoed one of the most important ones: a bill allowing trans people 12 month HRT stockpiles, protecting them from federal threats.

Gavin Newsom Vetoes Important HRT Stockpiling Bill For Trans Californians, Signs Other Pro-LGBTQ+ Bills

The bill would have allowed transgender people to maintain a safe supply of medication in the era of government crackdowns on care.

No I’m sorry I’m not bending to this “but porn addiction is real!”
NO what’s real is the bullshit that has been spoon fed to us by puritanical weirdos who want you to be stuck in your shame. You fell for the belief that your being a sexual being is inherently wrong and evil and that makes me sad 💔

💕 Jenna 💕 @thesleepysuccubus.bsky.social · 3d

Let’s re-iterate some important things:

- Masturbation is healthy and normal. If you have any concerns about it, talk to your health provider.

- Porn is not the root of all evil. But religious groups and political figures benefit from you thinking it is.

- “porn addiction” is fake
