I'm not seeing much comment on it in my feed so...

Today, hundreds of trans people and allies turned up to lobby Parliament in an event organised by Trans Solidarity Alliance about the horrible situation in which trans peeps find ourselves in the UK.

I couldn't make it, because I live nearly 300 miles away, I got autistic demand avoidance from not being able to find out how it would all work, and my MH would have made it too difficult. Still...

Parliament couldn't cope. They were overwhelmed despite having had notice of the numbers and some folks had to wait for hours to get in. It's been suggested that the authorities expected only a few to turn up, as happens when the transphobes do their thing.

Anyway, it seems to have been a huge success. Thanks to the organisers, thanks to those who went, and let's all hope that MPs listen and end this Starmer-led horror show that has many trans folk including me wanting to leave the country.

BEFORE and AFTER. You are not going to believe me this time…but I swear…I absolutely swear this is the same fucking street.

Shh, it is time

At work we have started a new project called "Hot Chocolate Leather Queen" with sub projects like "transfemme" and "black justice". It has nothing to with any of that. We named it that to keep the prudish AI bots from stealing our work.

What struck me about Trump winning the recent presidential election in the US was that the US electorate is even more misogynistic than it is racist.

The US electorate chose Obama twice as president but subsequently has on two occasions rejected extremely well qualified female candidates for the same job.

Liberty just won back our right to protest in the UK

Labour loses legal challenge it took up on behalf of the last Tories in government - so much for the 'real change' they promised

Little #MastodonTip : if you ask a question in a post and eventually get a good answer, you can edit your post with the answer added!

That way people who have boosted it will know the answer as well (it should notify them) and people who see it know that there is no need to answer.

UK rooftop solar installations surge, new battery storage record set

Latest MCS data for small-scale renewables reveal a strong month for solar installations up to 50 kW, double-digit growth for battery energy storage installations and a milestone reached despite a muted month for heat pump installations.
