For the past 12 years, @DanaVarahi and I have learned to work #magic together, and in so doing learned better to work magic with ourselves. A big part of this was coming to terms with being #transgender and neuro-divergent.
The trans friends you miss that no longer post here? They are over on fedi and they are thriving. Stop wallowing in this abusive cesspit, free yourselves and come join us. This site can't be saved. 2/2
I occasionally look in on twitter, but it is a worse and worse dumpster fire than ever for trans people here. On fed1v3rs3 I see constant trans joy, freed from the tyranny of gender critical voices putting us down. 1/2
"One day you're going to end up with the wrong t-shirt on and you'll get arrested. It won't stop with climate protest."
@ChrisGPackham explains why Brits – no matter their politics – should unite against the government's Public Order Bill.
What Vladimir Putin can do to a city - in this case Bakhmut in Ukraine, once home to 70,000 people. This Russian propaganda video looks like evidence of war crimes. I remember those I met in Bakhmut - civilians, firemen, Ukrainian troops - and wonder how many remain alive.
We're "sorry" we've given £72,000,000,000 of your money to our shareholders but that means we've now got none left so we think you should give us some more.
Let's call it another £10,000,000,000 as a bit of a down payment shall we?
Bloody hell!
@aceplym@brokenbottleboy Everything really because the Tories want the NHS gone. Trans healthcare and healthcare for neurodivergence is just easy first targets before the eliminate the rest.
The flyover is expectedly cancelled. As no rehearsals had taken place, this was a guarantee.
Since the invasion the amount of vehicles in the annual parade has plummeted into a pitiful display:
2021: 197
2022: 131
2023: 51
🧵Russian May 9th Parade 2023 vehicle composition thread. Now we finally get to compare this year's parade to the previous years'.
This year I have not seen an official lineup released for the first time.
Last year 131 vehicles took part, down from over 200 the previous years
Police arrest peaceful anti-monarchy protesters & have erected giant barriers to osbcure pro-republic banners. Right to freely protest suppressed. Shame!
@MaxiMumMother@bandwildyouth As a gay person don't speak for me. Trans people existing doesn't throw me under the bus. You have no idea what you are talking about. Shut up.
