So covid is a hoax huh? Tell that to my fucked up lungs you fascist pricks.

[Catherine @caephyn]

So I need to go to hospital for some tests due to “long Covid” symptoms (my lungs are fucked still). However to go to hospital I need a covid test first. I try to apply for one and am told they’ve not got any left at the moment. 🤦🏼‍♀️

@eksplaine Wooo, congrats babes 💜💜

I don’t think I’m ever below a 7, perhaps I should seek a referral to a psych?

I have a trans joke but the gatekeepers won’t let me tell it for two years.

[Catherine @caephyn]

I have a fluid dynamics joke but I can’t get the flow right.

@latentexistence I bought this one for my SE and it works well and is cheap https://t.co/crJWR4joQW

[cara.city elsewhere @caraesten]

there are two types of trans ppl: the ones who have been out on Twitter for less than two years and the ones blocked by Jesse Singal

When you get reviews back on a paper and one person says it’s hard to read and the other says it’s well written.🤔

@BlackMagicBimbo @sazza_jay Disgusting that he’s using the name and likeness of a trans man 😡🤬

[Catherine @caephyn]

I also have been my authentic self for 12 years now. The vast majority of my adult life. Don’t you dare tell me I don’t have the right to the word woman.

[Catherine @caephyn]

I’m 36 and a trans woman. I’m also a research scientist currently working in material science. I also lecture. The rest of my time is split between volunteer work and gaming.

On Monday & Tuesday, Tower Hamlets council workers will be on strike against the Labour-run council’s plans to fire + rehire the entire workforce to push through new & exploitative contracts. Pictured: our STRIKE signs for the recent UCU strike [Photo credit: Craig Maclean]

I worry that trans people in the UK are increasingly being forced to spend our energy reacting to things and defending ourselves rather than creating things and advocating ourselves. It feels like a losing game given our opponents only ever use it to press their attack.

[Casey Explosion @CaseyExplosion]

TERFs don't really believe that being trans is "a new form of conversion therapy", they claim that because they want us prevented from transitioning, and it is a useful lie.

[New Socialist @NewSocialistNS]

How do you strike under socially distanced conditions? What's the Tower Hamlets strike about? Why are a Labour council using Tory anti-union laws against their own workers? A striking worker explains. https://t.co/Iv7AhBFK2u

[Pamela Fitzpatrick @pamelafitz4HW]

Solidarity to Tower Hamlets staff forced to strike because the council intends to sack its 4000 staff. Disgraceful of a Labour Council.
