When anti-trans news outlets describe the 17 yr old victim in the linehan verdict as an adult, they are participating in an age old tactic used to dehumanise minority children.

Fun fact I couldn't mention until now: At the time Graham Linehan was harassing Sophia Brooks online, I was contacted by her former teachers and School Safeguarding Team to get her latest contact details, as they were worried sick about her being publicly stalked by an abusive alcoholic celebrity.

Labour has tran people’s blood on their hands. Leia Sampson-Grimbly was only 17
Today we remember and honour trans people whose lives were lost to violence and discrimination. In a time of increased division, it’s more important than ever to stand in solidarity with the trans community. Everyone deserves safety, dignity, and respect – free from fear and hatred.

I have seen every film Allison Anders has ever made & commission me to write about her, cinema pals! I will especially write about THINGS BEHIND THE SUN (2001), the most #MeToo of MeToo films & a Kim Dickens performance that you will never ever ever forget.
We don't appreciate Allison Anders enough. Gas food lodging is still my idea of the perfect American indie

There is a week left for the kickstarter for my debut film By Time You See Me There Will Be Nothing Left (link below), we have reached our goal but anything still helps as this is a very low budget film, if you want to get an early screening of this film this is still your chance

This is true. Took part in a group ice breaker earlier this year where we presented our future selves to the class. Everyone younger or older than myself ai generated pornified images of themselves living it up in Dubai.
It was at this point I realised I was going to be unemployable forever.

Kinda not sure what we're supposed to do about chatGPT being as normalized as it is. I feel like everyone that's either very young or very old is into it, millennials largely being the only normal ones lol
