Trans people have suffered a relentless, vicious and escalating campaign of hate against them in Britain and beyond.
Today, trans people and their allies take to the streets determined to fight back #TransPride
really coming to appreciate the luxury that is just being able to... go somewhere without thinking. event? food? a little walk? no need to think about it or ask for permission. just go. it's rather wonderful.
@PicturesFoIder Not high school (younger) but a history teacher put on an educational video tape that he'd accidentally recorded over with a home movie.
Eden Knight was tricked into detransitioning & moved to Saudi Arabia by people hired by her family to pose as friends to her. She has taken her own life. We have a doc w all the info in 1 place we submit now for your consideration

i can’t imagine seeing a disabled person just existing and being like, “you know what? i’m gonna mock them online.” some of you use twitter to live out your middle school bully fantasy and it’s embarrassing
@The_V_Diddy@NoNoImSparticus@simonharris_mbd Similarly, someone can say 'being short can be great!' and list reasons for that. Using a characteristic someone can't help as a means to demean them is bad. Pointing out the ways it's good and helpful isn't. Can't believe anyone here has to explain that to you.
@The_V_Diddy@NoNoImSparticus@simonharris_mbd The only way I can think to describe it currently is to compare it to other descriptors. Short, for example. This isn't a bad thing. However, if I used it in an insult, I would be suggesting it is.
@The_V_Diddy@NoNoImSparticus@simonharris_mbd There's a difference. Disability is not automatically a negative descriptor of someone. Someone calling me autistic as a means to define me is not inherently negative because it's true. It's not a bad thing. In your replies to others, it appears you think it is.
