Usually to be found in a book, wishing I was in a book or attempting to write a book. Proud Brummie. She/ her.
So infuriating. Even on rare occasions it is reported accurately the comments are full of 'but that goes against the Supreme Court ruling!' I don't know what to tell you, the transphobes lied to you about that too...

My rule of thumb is that any illness that's:
- invisible
- chronic
- unpredictable
- hard to test
- culturally new
- requires employer adjustments, and /or
- welfare support

Will be attacked as illegitimate by conservatives.
Claim's of "over-diagnosis" are tactic a of delegitimation.

Have you seen the kids book 'You're Called What?', about animals visiting the ministry of silly names to change theirs? The tasselled wobbegong features, and it's generally a joy throughout, highly recommend for younger kids

The fact ideologically driven adults are able to participate remotely in a child's journey with their identity is disgusting. Empowering random adults to question their gender while they are developing is the opposite of emotional safety and care

it's one of the few consolations that these people cannot force people to like them. all the lawsuits they want, everyone hates them and their works and they can't get away from it. the best they can hope for is to be endured.

Like MAGA, transphobes have gotten everything they wanted in 2025. And, like MAGA, they've never been more vitriolic toward the institutions they've captured, more disgusted by their wounded victims, more ready to plough forth into realms of cruelty that even they would have balked at a year ago.

These evil, spiteful ghouls thought they’d score an awesome Supreme Court victory and then society would salute their bravery, and rise up to enforce their fucknut politics. That hasn’t happened and it won’t happen, so now society will be *forced* to comply in a blizzard of squillionaire litigation.
