Only a 3rd through but this has been a really great video so far.

If you ever wanted a video that detailed the history of transphobia/gender critical in the UK, this is it.

Really worth a watch and sharing with others who might not be aware of the weakness of the 'arguments' against GAC.

So much comes to mind when I read this. So many emotions. So many words I want scream and shout. But right now I'm just heartbroken.

Yeah, same. Coroners have been quite good at this in the past so I'm hoping it was just an unfortunate addition of that paragraph. Though the fact that they never say trans and just "A teenage girl" worried me, papers are never that considerate/kind to us usually.

Is Ali being deputy good, no, absolutely not. But I feel he benefitted massively from no one really knowing who he is. The Greens are clearly pro-trans rights. And with new elections not far, a spotlight will now be on him.

Serena @serenadtyl.bsky.social · 12h

I take heart from the knowledge that Zack won with an absolute landslide, all the openly anti-trans candidates lost their elections and at the conference a motion for basically exactly what we want was passed nearly unanimously.

I just saw this part. Please tell me they were a trans girl and that they're not deadnaming and misgendering them.

I got the same. But it's ok, we can go off together instead, we don't need them (just please don't ask what I got the 2nd time I rolled 🔪)

Wait, I have electrolysis today, am I not supposed to have coffee/caffeine before it for some reason?

Serena @serenadtyl.bsky.social · 1d

My problem is that the 1st kit I got was an MG. Getting a HG at 1/144 would just look silly next to it now, so going forwards all kits will need to be MG for me (or other 1/100 kits, need a FM Aerial at some point).

I just had to go and look up what a group of frogs is called and apparently it's an army, which is surprisingly more than a little fitting right now.

Get ready for an army of frogs coming it seems.

I'm not sure you even need to squint. The 'guys' in this models description is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

So God's intersex then, right?

Would you say the movies are a sufficient base for everything that comes after?

I've watched most things from Wing onwards but could never get into the original series.

So much in the UC timeline I'm missing because of it.

Serena @serenadtyl.bsky.social · 3d

I've just finished Seed/Destiny/Freedom and have moved onto IBO now. Been so long since I've watched it that it feels new again.

Just got to decide which Gundam to get now (decided to buy something from each series to build whilst I watch the next).

I've never heard of domperidone before. I may need to look into this.

We can all agree that the attack on the Synagogue in Manchester was terrorism

So why is setting a Mosque alight just 'arson' and a 'hate crime' and also not terrorism?

This is what I was just thinking too. What is the difference that makes one of these horrific acts terrorism and the other only a hate crime?

How does this not fall under the below definition in the Terrorism Act?

They keep spreading every week where I am. It's genuinely made me fearful living in the same town that I have been in all my life.
