@HomeAffairsSA Does this include unabridged birth certificates?

@jk_rowling JK revealing her assumption that she thinks trans people are just gay people in denial, totally ignoring the fact that we have diverse sexual orientations.
A straight trans woman is just gay. A lesbian trans woman is a predator. We can't win with you people 🙄

On the anniversary of the start of the Stonewall riots, the NYPD is attacking LGBTQ people who are marching for Pride. Let that sink in.

Here's all I really want to say about #JKRowling. tl/dr The best way to fight TERF ideology is to commit to dismantling white supremacy.

[Kellyn Botha @The1TrueKellyn]

I'm sure saying fuck @jk_rowling will come across as the sort of attack she says is so unfairly directed at her for daring to question the lived realities of trans people, but after reading this essay with an open mind, to get a better understanding of it all...FUCK JK ROWLING!

First tweet in three and a half years. Nothing to say but yikes. 2017 me could not have imagined how much the world would have changed.

Can't guarantee many more tweets much more often. Twitter is a trash-fire (some things don't change).

@WhimsyWithStyle Just because a country does a good thing for one group doesn't mean we must ignore the bad things it may be doing to another group. Marginalisation is not a zero-sum game.

@Mmontsealvarado @BECKETlaw "Philly is trying to shut down {...} ministry over the ministry's religious beliefs" - this is simply factually incorrect.

Yesterday a trans girl, a zimbabwean, afrikaner and a surfer-chick drove to a township to buy beer, and were perfectly fine. #HeritageDay :P
