For folks not following the news since the election, Labour have taken only a week to announce that they’re planning to continue the Tory policy of banning puberty blockers for trans youth.

“Change” for some, continuity of Tory cruelty for trans people.

Please consider writing to your MP to complain about Labour Health Secretary, Wes Streeting.

The funny thing about the logic that we shouldn't design for disabled people because they are a small group ("less than 50%") is that—in the most recent census data for the US—only 49.5% were MALE.

I started a new job January 9th. I am much less stressed but also more lonely (much smaller company, way fewer meetings, the company hasn't really figured out how to be a social remote company yet), always confused but in a good way.
