🌳🌳LIQUID TREES ARE COOL, y'all are just haters: a thread.🌳🌳

This tweet went viral and twitter got mad as heck about it. "But we love trees!" they cried. But they are actually really cool and here's why: (1/14)

Trans rights are human rights.

On #TransDayOfVisibility, let’s celebrate the resilience of trans people who spread hope and joy to those around them.

And let’s amplify their calls for respect, equality, healthcare and freedom.

A wee thread of some Scottish theatre announcements that have come out in the last few weeks, which I haven't had time to shout about...

In JK Rowling's latest - and potentially most bigoted and dangerous - diatribe against transgender people and the LGBTQ+ community, she implies that Harry Potter's Death Eaters were stand-ins for queer people campaigning for equal rights.

Yes, really. Buckle up 🧵

Isn't it kinda wild how animals are mostly scared of things we do for their sake, because they cannot understand it...? Anyway here's a comic about that. #horror #comic

🚨🚨🚨 #BREAKING: Dundee’s new gaming complex, located at the Kingsway West Retail Park and operated by Tenpin, is set to open on August 31.

@JasonAChristian Not the most contemporary suggestions but imma make a case for Joyce's Ulysses and Woolf's Mrs Dalloway.

It Is Journalism’s Sacred Duty To Endanger The Lives Of As Many Trans People As Possible https://t.co/e8aZ5CSrhi
