This feels like the turning point where I'm gonna shift more to Bluesky being my main platform.

You can find me there at [email protected] and I'd love to keep as many connections as I can.

That said, I'm nothing if not powered by contrariness, so I'll still be here

Some immediate steps I believe that all trans people should take:

- Get your passport. Today. It takes time to come in and this will likely be shut down under Trump.

- Update every ID your state allows you to.

- Make sure you have a supply of medication in case of disruption

@amadcartoonist Does Dani Moonstar having access to a flying horse count as "a power"?

@girldrawsghosts @TheGAndP But it's her property which they are liscensing, so even if she was somehow breaching contract by not producing new work/being the horrible asshole she is, that would at worst require her to pay back contract money.

Plus, she doesn't live in the US so Florida law is irrelevant.

@JayHulmePoet Northampton is a particularly cursed destination by rail; there is no rail link connecting Kettering, Corby or Wellingborough - the other 3 towns in the county with stations - to it without doing 3 sides of a square or travelling to London, changing stations then heading back.

@GailSimone If only entertainment purposes is allowed, probably Mystique or Nightcrawler.

If it's for any purpose I'd probably feel obliged to be Elixir and spend the day at the hospital.

In Greening Grey Britain, @The_RHS revealed that between 2005 and 2015 alone, 3 million extra front gardens were paved over.

This has huge implications for overheating, flooding, and biodiversity.

Homeowners should be mandated to retain or create 50% 'natural' garden space.

Israel is carpet bombing Tyre. I don’t think people unfamiliar with this city understand what does this mean. Tyre is over 4,700 year-old & one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. It is included as a whole in the UNESCO World Heritage. My heart is aching😭

[Alex Holt @AlexJHolt]

Yes, this shouldn't even be a question.

The West has a long history of shielding it's own citizens from prosecution for War Crimes, and this should horrify -everyone-.

[Alex Holt @AlexJHolt]

Okay, so even all evidence to the contrary, this doesn't seem to be a parody account and this man, in addition to sexism and racism, does indeed seem to have based part of his personality around what does and doesn't constitute a sexy cartoon bandicoot? 🙃

The United Kingdom continues to crack down now on under 25 care.

There are hundreds of reports of not filling HRT scripts for trans adults, and now they're explicitly shutting down surgeries under 25.

Remember when they said we were lying when we said this would happen?

Labours new plans for benefit reform will save just £3BN according to the Office for Budget Responsibility.

However according to HMRC’s latest report, the total amount of unpaid tax has surged to £43 billion.

I suppose it’s easier & more ruthless fun to chase the vulnerable.

*Sigh* Ahh this again

Approximately 20% of the worlds living Pygmy Hippos are in captivity, and this is a positive because that represents 20% more of a species in existence than would otherwise.
