Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives lost to violence.

The Green Party stands shoulder to shoulder with transgender people in the face of increasing transphobic rhetoric in our society and politics.

Sent my 14 and 16 year old to the supermarket to buy sour cream, Worcestershire sauce and kidney beans. They can’t find any of them, won’t ask anyone for help, and are having some kind of meltdown in the condiment aisle.

I loved this film.
I know that ‘Bird’ was not universally loved, but I enjoyed it greatly.

Anyway, here's my starter pack go.bsky.app/VFxSES6 (and like I said, I felt 😬 making it, because all lists and categorisations of people are political and I think we should act as if lists don't matter and work to rethink taxonomic power, but that's another thread)

Hello, here is a portrait of me that a live illustrator included in the workshop documentation from a recent work event if you want to see evidence of a person truly seen and publicly shamed.
