So often, International Transgender Day of Visibility is filled with heavy conversations about struggles and challenges — and while those are real, especially now, so is trans joy. This year, we want to spotlight the moments that make life feel full, bright, and affirming. Why not share yours 🏳️‍⚧️

Ferret Fact Service verdict: False
It is not accurate to state that “praying silently inside of your own house is now illegal” in Scotland. Prayer is not included in the Scottish abortion ‘buffer zones’ bill, and while it is possible to fall foul of the law from within your home, you would have to be attempting to influence, impede or cause harassment to someone accessing abortion services.

It's amazing how many people, including MPs, don't realise just what Minimum Income Requirements mean, and the impact they have on families. More than half the UK population is basically ineligible to be with a foreign born partner, leaving families ripped apart. search.app/knp1jekwwRJP...

More contemporary neo Nazi movements are fixated on birth rates and white replacement conspiracies which means they advocate for abortion bans. Check out any far right figure to see this for yourself. And definitely read ‘Bodies Under Siege’ by @sianushka.bsky.social for a very detailed deep dive

~129,000 people have moved out of abortion-banned states since Dobbs. Researchers say this "highlights that reproductive healthcare access has a measurable effect on residential decisions," which... seems entirely reasonable seeing as these laws are life-threatening. @jezebeldotcom.bsky.social

You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.
