Why isn't the whole world talking about Hannah Arendt's butch photo shoots?

“Activists who disrupt the flow of weapons to a genocidal regime may violate petty criminal statutes, but they uphold a far greater law and a more profound human imperative: to protect a people and culture from annihilation.”

This is an MP from a MAJOR PARTY saying this.

In the UK. Not the US.

Imagine this just 5 years ago.

I have a short story in this anthology ⬆️

It’s (kind of) about two butches going bra shopping. To find out what it’s really about, you’ll have to preorder the book 😎

Out 4 May!

Chuffed to learn that my submission to this year’s BBC National Short Story Awards made it into the top 60! AKA ‘the unofficial longlist’ 😎
It was published in @clavmag back in May - take a look ➡️ https://t.co/43Kg0zSuHq

Enough is enough. It's time to turn anger into action.

Join the campaign to fight the cost-of-living crisis.

We’re extremely disappointed that the government is making calories on menus mandatory in England from 6 April.

We know it causes anxiety for people affected by eating disorders.
We know it can increase fixations on restricting calories for anyone with anorexia or bulimia. 🧵

[Stonewall @stonewalluk]

Due to the Prime Minister’s broken promise on protecting trans people from the harms of conversion therapy, we regret that we are withdrawing Stonewall’s support for the UK Government’s #SafeToBeMe2022 conference 🧵

For anybody looking to support a trans person IRL this #TransDayOfVisibility, my friend needs another £400 to cover surgery-related costs. Click through + give what you can - surgery is next week! 🏳️‍⚧️

Took my copy of the very funny #DoubleBooked out and about to Out and About @BarbicanCentre earlier today. LGBTQ+ past meets LGBTQ+ future! 🏳️‍🌈
