To all my Trans siblings—you are valid. No ruling, piece of paper, hate, or ignorance should ever make you feel otherwise.
Here are some upcoming events where you can stand up for #Transrights and our hard-fought LGBT+ rights. An injury to one is an injury to all. #lgbt #humanrights #transisvalid

Our position is straight forward - given the threats before us, any union worthy of that name would be preparing to fight. Unfortunately Left Unity have no intention of doing anything but go through the motions of pretending to resist - and we're not even sure of that.

Nice night out going to see Wicked.
Enjoyed holding space for the lyrics of Defying Gravity and felt power within that.
Unfortunately also had to hold space for the awful Act 2. Maybe the movie can turn it into a cohesive piece of media? We can but hope!

Avanti should make better use of its resources by reaching a fair rest-day working settlement with our members, which would also be far more cost-effective.

I mean I am mentally ill but it's not because I have sex with men. Hope this helps everyone trying to re-pathologise homosexuality xoxo
Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.
