From the judgement…
'Only 0.05% of the female workforce had complained or raised a concern about the policy (i.e. the claimant) and it cannot therefore be said that all women considered that their dignity and privacy had been sacrificed.'

Ok this is a deeply cheering thread today and shows that fighting back through law can work. Some really interesting detail especially on the SC ruling not giving people leave to discriminate.
BREAKING: Employee who demand a trans-exclusive toilet policy loses employment tribunal. All claims, direct and indirect discrimination, harassment, and 1992 Regs, dismissed.

It’s been six years since the first reported case of SARSCov2.

It’s never too late to wear a mask.

It’s never too late to clean the air.

Every infection avoided or delayed is a win for long term health.

We can drastically reduce transmission if everyone does their part.

Not gonna lie lads, it’s fucking bleak over here.

Trans people can’t fight this on their own, cis women need to start leaving and boycotting these organisations that exclude trans women.

I go where my trans partner goes, if she can’t go I don’t go. We all have to do this.

You can’t tell if someone is disabled just by looking at them.

There’s no such thing as the “genuinely disabled”.

You are not entitled to a person’s entire medical history just so you can decide whether to believe them or not.

People are not faking disability, most are trying to fake being well.

every time a community tests ubi or free housing for the homeless the result is always "holy fuck this works incredibly well and costs less than existing solutions!" and then every politician alive does this

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

New month, new book thread! My first book of December was Clean Sweep by Ilona Andrews (narrated by Nora Achrati and a full cast).

A unique blend of paranormal and sci-fi. The alpha-male romance, though, is really not to my taste.

I just read a post about gender inclusivity.

‘Your audience isn’t one big gender soup. You need to take the needs of all genders seriously.‘

It’s actually a good post and I agree … mostly.

But I think, for my readers, ‘one big gender soup’ pretty much sums it up.

Always grinds my gears when people say "No one would work drudge jobs if there was a UBI"

But even staying completely capitalist, I disagree. If I received a baseline living-wage UBI, and then I was offered REWARDS for drudge jobs, I'd take it! I want to save up for treats and travel and hobbies!

I know that experience. I spent a large portion of my life living exactly this way because I was *terrified* that someone might see who I actually am.

It's literally better to be openly trans, even with all the shit going on right now, than to live the life some cis men impose on themselves.
So many men go through life like that. You can play poker because it's right-coded, you can't enjoy fruity alcoholic drinks because they're women-coded, you can't lick an ice cream cone because it's gay-coded. All day, every day, choosing and judging things based on coding for narrow norms.

REMINDER: if you think your right-on lefty/socialist/communist/etc. politics justifies pirating books, well guess what? Most writers don't make a living wage from their books or writing work, and stealing from them makes you a class traitor.
