if you're not trans then i really don't know if you can comprehend how much of a *disappointment* literally all of society has proven to be for us just time and again proving that the rest of you will always choose to abdicate your morals over sitting with discomfort for one goddamn second

White people want immigrants to assimilate and then get mad when they assimilate into indigenous culture instead of white supremacy.

Quick reminder that labour introduced a tax transparency bill that would report on how fair our tax system is anually and the first thing luxons govt did was repeal it so that nobody would get that information.

This is unacceptable. Politics is intimately involved with health and medicine at every turn, and if you think otherwise it’s because you benefit from the current political system.

To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar

“The law doesn't specify any changes to how people can identify their gender or speak about it, but because it gives a technical definition of gender, it could impact how courts interpret the law in the future.” This definition DOES NOT MEAN ANYTHING SCIENTIFICALLY! Don’t give it credibility!

Surprise! It costs money to guarantee a 3 day in-patient postnatal stay. Especially after decades of underinvestment. And, it turns out, you can’t replace midwives and postnatal nurses with AI.

***Call to action*** NZ First’s transphobic bill is lawfare against trans, non-binary, and intersex people. What can we do about it? Well, we can make sure the select committee receives as many submissions as possible against the bill. To that end I will offer my time to anyone who wants help 1/4

To be clear: human sex is not binary. This is transphobia to chase votes from a small but worryingly vocal group of transphobes.

Are you worried about falling birthrates? Here's 5 simple tips! 1. Quick racism check, are you actually just worried about *white* birthrates? Maybe stop that 2. More parental leave 3. Make public spaces and services safer for parents 4. Rent: too damn high 5. No seriously do the racism check again
