Can't remember if I've posted this, but one of the first times I visited the town in which I now live this was tied with a ribbon to the bridge from the train station.
I still find comfort in reading it occasionally. A beautiful sentiment from a stranger who'll never know how much it meant to me.

this must be all that 'the bbc is captured by gender ideology' that @maitlis.bsky.social, @jonsopel1.bsky.social, and @lewisgoodall.com were bravely standing up against when they helped propagate a whole bunch of dangerous medical disinformation, that has got several kids killed since, on newsnight.
the bbc changed their article from saying 'trans woman' to saying 'biological male who identifies as a woman'.
even if you don't care about trans ppl it should alarm you just how captured the bbc has become.
they will no longer even say 'trans woman'. that's not normal and shows massive bias.

I am not a "trans activist". I am simply a trans person who wants trans people like myself to be able to live lives free of dignity and fear in this country. I wouldn't know where to start to be an activist about that but I don't think that's a controversial point.

Everytime a trans girl plays sports along her cis girl mates they go like: "Gigantic, huge manly man crashing through little, daint, girly-babies", even when she's about the same size as them. But when a 6.4, heavy-set adult man attacks a noticeably smaller teen, she suddenly is just an 'activist'…

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

It's a certain type of online brain rot to believe that my posts about trans youth completing suicide, while being failed by the adults around them, is because of a cynical social media strategy rather than genuine anger at those creating the circumstances that lead to those tragedies.
Alejandra doomposts & makes enemies out of people who actually support her cause because her relevance depends on others being mad and scared.
It does her no good to tell followers that they're resilient/strong, or coalition build.
In any other context people would rightly call this manipulative.

Streeting is admitting that the Pathways “trial” already has a predetermined outcome. Stuffing it with SEGM placeholders is evidence of this.
The only way we are going to end state-mandated torture of trans kids is to get Labour out of government completely.

You don’t put 7.3% of cancer patients on a treatment and leave the rest to see how they get on.
Trans healthcare is the only branch where this is allowed to happen.
Puberty blockers were the compromise and they’ve taken that away.

The trail will involve 220 children.
Meanwhile 3000 another children seeking health care for their gender dysphoria will be placed on an ‘observational’ study.
The old ‘watch and wait’ is how Alice was treated. Although this time there might be someone actually watching, this is not health care.🧵
