But until then, I’ve linked the video, I mentioned earlier, below. I definitely recommend giving it a watch and some love! Xxx youtu.be/Cxe_YMJ4nUs?... (art by Pimberrry on Instagram) (6)

AND! They have a new podcast starting soon! I can’t wait for more of their weird and wonderful content and wish them nothing but the best with it all! (5)

I can’t imagine how difficult at times it must have been to keep a secret but now they’re out and proud I wish all the best for them and hope they receive all the love and support they deserve 💖 now’s also a good time to mention they’ve rebranded their gaming channel (to just Dan and Phil) (4)

Most people (especially on my friends/followers list) won’t care or will say that “it was obvious!” or “what else is new?” but I’m super happy for Dan and Phil and I wanted to share my happiness for them! (3)

but! After all these years (and after finding my own Dan!) last night, Dan and Phil uploaded possibly the most important video the Phandom and most queer people will ever see: Dan and Phil CONFIRMING their relationship! (2)

It’s crazy to think I’ve been a fan of Dan and Phil for 11 years! 11 years of so much love and laughter shared (as well as some questionable habits and moments of my own…we don’t talk about some of those phases I went through during around the start of that time 😳) (1)

I did the same at first! Then I played it again with sound (what a mistake to make! I think watching it just the once was enough 😂)

Jess Short @shorttics.bsky.social · 1d

😂 I found it terrible but at the same time I couldn’t stop laughing at it (maybe from how terrible it was? 😅)

Jess Short @shorttics.bsky.social · 1d

Definitely! I know the Green counsellor in my area’s a lovely lady who does a lot for the community, maybe I’ll have to ping her a message to say I’ve joined 😁 and thank you again! 🙈💚

If we can raise £100 for every day in October, I'll be cutting off my hair and donating it to the Little Princess Trust!!

All money raised will go towards saving Nibbles Rabbit Rescue and helping the bunnies in their care find their forever homes 🩷🐰

This is the best/worst thing I’ve ever seen Strictly Come Dancing do (yes it’s real…and yes it was shown on national TV) I feel like @yogscast.com NEED to see this (just for an expert opinion of course) youtu.be/u-M2Xv40EBI?...

I'm sorry my political commentary has been reduced to "let's fucking go" recently

Thank you Helen! I’ve been so welcomed by so many people! It’s really lovely to see so many nice people on the internet (especially for a change! 🙈) 💚

Jess Short @shorttics.bsky.social · 3d

Thank you Chrissetti! It’s great to be part of such a welcoming Party, I swear no other Party does welcomes as lovely as the Greens 😁💚

I think the hard work’s definitely paid of, you all deserve to be proud of yourself and your work! 💖 especially as the world always needs safe spaces for us queer people 💚

Jess Short @shorttics.bsky.social · 3d

Thank you! It definitely feels like home already, especially with how many warm welcomes I’ve received! It’s definitely appreciated! 💚

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

Women in support of the trans+ community - Not in our name

Thank you! I’m so glad I joined too! It’s safe to say I’m already proud to be a Green Party member, especially from having such a warm welcome! 💚

Jess Short @shorttics.bsky.social · 4d

Thank you Owain! Glad to be here! It’s great to see so many fellow Greens on here (though no surprise as they’re closing in on 100,000 members! 😱😁)

Thank you Allan! I’ve been so welcomed already that I feel like this was such a good decision already! I’d definitely recommend anyone to join! 🤩

Jess Short @shorttics.bsky.social · 4d

Thanks Adrian! I’ll be sure to spread the word of the Greens! (Not ashamed if I become the annoying family member that tries to recruit other family members 😂)

I totally agree! Especially about having hope, I remember seeing Zack’s political promo video about refugees (just before he became the Green Party leader) and it was like a breath of fresh air! I think he and the Greens could do a world of good 💚
