Sparkling somewhere on the trans-spectrum.

Supportive, but cynical. Prone to hyper-fixation, impractical adventures and spending years hiding under the duvet.

Only interested in people who get it, not people who want it.

By the way, if you're checking out my profile to see what sort of person I am... this is going to be very confusing for you.
Kinda want more casual t-shirty tops, but every time I put one on I look like a sack of potatoes.

Big oversize tops - cool.
Crop tops - yeah, I'm old but I don't care.
Everything else - sack of potatoes.

...and why does "dressing your age" involve looking like a soon to be retired accountant?

The good thing coming out of these political times is that a bunch of people feel able to say out loud what they really think.

No more dressing it up in careful phrases of care and support - it's straight up misogynistic, authoritarian bullshit.

Don't forget who they are and who is tolerating them

Trans day of fuck you, you don't get to define who I am.

So, F1nn5ter (Trans Influencer you'll probably recognise) has revealed they're behind anne.health which quietly launched a year ago to provide private access to gender care in the UK at a time when care is being witheld from many vulnerable people.

That's pretty impressive. Well done to them.

Transparent Action is a group of parents who want to take action in support of their trans, non-binary and gender diverse loved ones and the wider trans+ community.

I questioned my gender...

...it told me it wasn't there at the time, it was someone else and anyway those cookies tasted horrible so, like, you wouldn't have wanted them either.

Still this by the way.

Less of the brainworms, more of the manifesting.
It's a brainwormy kinda day.

Today's dream - a studio space to be creative and make cool stuff that friends can just come and hang out in and support each other's silly projects.

Cosy kitchen at one end, Adam Savage's workshop in the middle, photo studio at the other end.

Not much to ask, surely?

Board games that are cool about being queer, without hitting you over the head with it?

Games you could play with cis friends and family but still express a little of who you are...

..any ideas?

Didn't expect that.

Happy Trans Awareness Week.

I should learn my lesson.

There is never a good faith discussion when it comes to the harm and challenges trans people face.

It's heartbreaking. One bigoted lie is more important than the lived experience of a thousand people.

When very prominent anti-trans campaigners do particularly egregious or dishonest things, it's really tempting to point it out, especially when they get a load of borderline psychotic responses from their followers.

But let's be honest, it's not about to be a learning experience for any of them.

Watching well educated, middle class people vomit up bigoted talking points promoted by far right activist groups is a frustrating reminder that wars happen not because one evil person makes a nation fight, but a million people talk themselves into it.

What would keep Captain Fuck-Nugget out of Downing Street would be the rest of our MPs - no matter what party they're from - stop accepting political talking points rooted in bigotry, ignorance and greed.

And, you know.. basic economic competence, social policies and compassion clearly articulated.
Some good news from the Daily Mail; a progressive alliance of voters voting tactically can prevent Rothermere’s favourite fascist from getting in.

What we will need however, is accurate constituency-level polling data to make this happen.

Final episode of Riot Women tonight - it's been a fantastic series. Awesome writing, and a joy to watch - and some lovely, straightforward representation too.

I've been reaching out to the online trans community more lately to find common cause - just at the time where attacks on trans identities and rights have exploded.

It's like walking into a pub to find friends and being met with a bar brawl. And it's left me feeling vulnerable and exhausted.

Trans people in the UK have been assigned the legal status of vampire.

We have a complex relationship with mirrors,
Everyone talks about us but no-one has actually met one,
We have a tendancy towards gothic fashion,
We can only go where we're invited.

All this BS about the supreme court judgement makes me want to set up a all-trans tech company with cat-girl only spaces, women-first products and a mission to obliterate tech-bro dominance.

All legal and above board, but fucking angry.

And none of that pandering shit. No like and subscribe dudes.

The institutions who owe us a duty of care are afraid to talk openly about the state we're in.

UK based trans, queer, lesbian, gay, bi people - and, you know, the rest of you too:

For what it's worth, I've had an online presence for nearly thirty years. Even though only a tiny minority will have heard of me, tens of millions of people have visited my profile as I've migrated across sites.

Holy crap. A really impressive (though long!) piece of journalism about ideological capture of the "trans debate", with direct links to the BBC.

This is the sort of thing @channel4news.bsky.social should be digging through as it explodes across our news cycle.

Gen.ID - We need an anthology series about gender and identity. Each episode is a 20 minute story: Love Death and Robots via Black Mirror playing with gender identity and alt cultures, followed by 5 minutes reaction/chat/humans in a Twitch chat does Last Leg (but half the age!) format to ground it.
