This is the type of hater energy that will fuel us in the years ahead.
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

In the interests of sanity in this period when we can’t buy unpasteurised French cheese, I share with you the best substitute I have found yet

It’s called La Bouse. It’s Swiss. It’s like a good Brie but slightly more delicate.

You may thank me later

I’ve not even finished my breakfast and already I’m arguing with transphobes on the internet.

I need to get a life!

"If they don't want to ride with all women, then it's not the kind of ride I want to be part of." Bravo Claire Sharpe. And (metaphorically, as I am really not a cyclist) co-signed!

On the other hand, I want to make the UK the most beautiful, safe & fair place on the planet where people live together in harmony supporting & nurturing each other and where poverty, war & prejudice become stories of the past.

I have a dream and that’s one thing regressive politics can’t take.
Yesterday the UK Home Secretary said in a TV interview, and I quote: "We want to make the UK a less attractive place for people to come." Job well done on that score, I'd say.
I don’t know what to say anymore other than to remind those in power that refugees are human beings with equal rights who, along with their children, deserve a safe, stable & integrated life in their communities and that what they’re breaking now with this performative cruelty can’t be fixed later.

There is no evidence that shows 46 XY DSD women (competing naturally),or trans women who suppress their T(through hormone therapy or surgical gonad removal) possess any physical performance attributes that is neither attainable nor present in 46 XX women.

One thing that's been heavily proven to me is Bluesky is not all politics. The music, record, cd, movie, books, horror and lots more scenes are heavily alive and well here with almost zero negativity. Better engagement here than Facebook has been in years.
