God bless those of you who can, because those kids need some fucking perspective from people who have actually *lived* as queer people for a significant amount of time, but I have no fucking time, or energy, or patience to try to convince a tumblr poisoned 22 year old that they don’t know everything

I’ve touched on it before, but I’m noticing a trend in intracommunity queer discourse which is that a lot of the conflict is between, to be blunt, dumb 20-somethings who largely engage with queerness online and treat it like a fandom and actual queer adults who… well, don’t.

As an update, some insane people are now harassing/ threatening me via email. I am not a fucking MP. I am not in a position of power. I don’t make govt policy. I advocated for tactical voting. I have condemned the policy. No man I know who does what I do, gets this. Not one of them.

Telegraph accepts: - population of London is 9m not 7m - it's not "1 in 12" but "between 1 in 13 & 1 in 20-something" - they included people with leave to remain - they included kids born in the UK. Xenophobic lies from far-right grifters masquerading as journalists. [Feel free to repost on X 😉]

Ooh, that's a strong cartoon from @ellabaron.bsky.social You know what would *actually* redistribute growth? UK-EU alignment - especially for goods, but also services. Because most manufacturing happens outside London & the SE. And Brexit barriers are stifling these businesses.

Cartoon showing a billboard of Rachel Reeves and Keir Starmer in front of Oxford & Cambridge scenes, with the caption 'Visit the Silicon Valley of Europe'.

Signs in front of the billboard read 'The North'. Graffiti on the sign says 'Not coming soon, not here'.

7/ Hold space for those no longer with us 👼

This time of year can be very difficult if you have lost a loved one, and it’s important to allow yourself to sit in your feels.

Take time to honour those we have lost and remember that you are still here.

6/ Know that it's ok to not go home 🏡

If the thought of a family Christmas seems way too stressful to be worth it, there’s also the option to not go at all.

You’re well within your rights to not attend, or if you do attend, give yourself permission to leave when you need to.

3/ Remember, you're valid ♥️

t is important to remember that our identities are not contingent upon our family’s ability to understand or validate them.

You know yourself best, you are the expert of yourself and your identity, and you are so valid.

Why not repeat an affirmation to yourself when you’re feeling anxious or dysphoric. It can be as simple as ‘I am valid.

2/ Tips for surviving the festive season 👇

The holiday season can be hard for LGBTQIA+ people. While Christmas is about spending time with your loved ones, lots of people struggle at this time of year.

There is a lot of pressure to be having fun, especially on social media. It’s ok if that’s not the case for you.

It’s really disheartening to see trans users having to step back from Bluesky because of the influx of transphobic harassment. Trans posters built the culture of this platform and it would behoove cis allies to advocate for their safety as Bluesky expands and they get targeted
