Dear #NHS, if you'd like my blood right now, restore my rights. If you'd like my organs when I'm dead, restore my rights.

Defiance, you say? EHRC? Never heard of them. No compliance. Not today, not tomorrow. Fuck the EHRC.

Hard agree. This mess won't be sorted out with domestic courts or politics. The quicker this goes to ECHR the better.

To be fair, even JKKKR won't appear in the documentary about JKKKR, presumably because she's too unhinged for a real interview.

If Sadiq Khan is a trans ally, why is he allowing JK Rowling’s Harry Potter to take over the Christmas lights in Oxford Circus? Email him now and ask him to pull the plug on transphobia. goodlaw.social/e1ae3f Do better, Mr Khan.

Met up for dinner with an ex colleague who came out a year before I did, before we both left the company. We hadn't seen each other for 4 years; she's based in Oregon, and I'm in the UK. It was like we'd seen each other yesterday. It was so good to spend time with someone who just *gets* me.

As an ex resident, NW London is tame. However, North London traffic is like the wild west in comparison.

Your children are much safer in the company of drag queens than: 1. Pastors or priests; 2. Republican men; 3. Billionares; and 3. Frat boys.

There were always large contingents of Meta staff in there at lunchtime when we had the Rathbone office, and I think the place has sat empty since they moved out.

Loved laksamania, but I fear this may have a lot to do with Meta moving offices from Rathbone Sq to KX.

If anyone is in touch with any of the local trans inclusive safe spaces orgs around the country can you reach out to them and ask if they would be willing to speak to me over the next day or so please. I have opened my DMs.

I find it hard to believe someone who is theoretically embedded within the LGBTQ+ rights movement can get it so horribly wrong just about every time he says something on the matter.

I'm quite certain Nelson Mandela could have correctly gendered Imane Khelif. Genghis would probably have gotten it correct too. Unlike the Mouldy One.

Historian here. I'm currently researching how courts treated gender-nonconforming people in the early modern period. And TBH, I'm not finding much ancient hatred directed toward them - not none - but not that much.
