I LOVED the DWM interview with Anneke Wills. It was like spending the afternoon with an old friend. God I would give my right arm to have a few glasses of wine with her - she sounds like such a hoot!

@dorianlynskey.bsky.social I really want to share this sentence of Proust's which I just read with a writer : 'For there is a closer analogy between the instinctive life of the public and the talent of a great writer, which is no more than an instinct religiously listened to while imposing

Sooo... would Suella Braverman say that Romesh isn't English? Like... ROMESH?? A one man embodiment of our entire culture??? If he ever leaves England it will be like the ravens leaving the Tower of London. ENGLAND WOULD FALL!

Trans people's feeds are now filled with cis people talking about how great the sunlit uplands are going to be. Trouble is, we still can't use the toilets at the Sunlit Uplands Visitor Centre.

To those in the UK feeling hopeful today I want to tell you - I know a trans woman who has been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer today. 18 months to live without treatment - and she is scared she'll be put on a male ward in the hospital. Thanks a fucking lot Andy Burnham and Labour.

Bit of an oversight in the current The Rest is History series about the French Revolution - absolutely no mention of Citizen Camembert. Known for his terrifying phrase issued from the steps of the guillotine... 'carry on chopping!'

OK, I'm calling it - Colin From Accounts is one of the greatest sitcoms ever made. Multiple times in those last few episodes there were tears in my eyes but the rug was pulled and I was cry laughing. But no rugs at the end - just beautiful. What a wonderful, glorious, joyful show.

Been in a theatre, a museum and a pub in London today - all unisex, gender neutral toilets. It's happening - this will spread out from London to the rest of the country. Because terfs couldn't share spaces with the tiny proportion of women who are trans, they have ended women's spaces altogether.

Forcing a diagnosis of mental illness on someone is a very old tool of fascism. People who do this to trans people need to know in whose footsteps they are following.

Has local government reorganisation been 'paused' as in 'paused' or 'paused' as in NHS gender treatment in Wales?

I just watched the film 'Dog Day Afternoon', which I've never actually seen before. Was not expecting the really quite tender and loving relationship between Al Pacino's character and a trans woman 🤔 A man who'll rob a bank for your GRS? Relationship goals!

This news is support concerning although I’m seeing people talking about leaving, which I think would be a terrible idea. There’s space to fight this sort of thing within trade unions, the last thing trans people and allies should be doing is deserting them

@dorianlynskey.bsky.social Pretty clear for a while from the content of the podcast but....well.... Marina Hyde's answer to this question in The Guardian. It's remarkable how a writer who criticises the far right can be like... they are right about one thing though. 🙄

@originstorypodcast.bsky.social Great show at the Union Chspel last night 😍 As regards the 'What if Reform win?' book - dont not read it because it's too depressing... no spoilers but its conclusion is more positive than you might expect, in a strange way.

I am now at the stage where if someone is talking about LGBTQIA+ rights, and they just say 'gay rights' I'm convinced it's a dog whistle for terfs. Most recent example - The Rest is Entertainment podcast, where Hyde is clearly terf leaning and Osman doesn't want to challenge it.

Mark my words - when the backlash against transphobia comes, the actors who were in the HBO / Audible Harry Potter will be untouchable. These projects will be career destroying.

As I was just crossing the road to avoid having to talk to someone I vaguely know (a quintessentially British thing to do), it struck me how ridiculous it is that the EHRC think we're all going to be challenging each other in bathrooms. British people would rather die than speak to ANYBODY 😆

So... what about 'this facility is cleaned by male and female cleaners'? I really don't think we've hammered that point enough. A full bodied heterosexual male can be considered ABSOLUTELY FINE to hang out in the ladies toilet and no one is bothered in the slightest. TERFS are cool with it.

Tomorrow is a day of shame in the UK. A day that will go down in queer history. Trans Exclusion Day. When the government says discriminating against a vulnerable group is absolutely fine. Disgusting. Never forget. Never forgive.

If you celebrate Labour's wins and look forward to a brighter future, remember you're only able to do that because you're not trans. There is no hope for us under Labour... and no better future. Just more of this shit. Your happiness shows how willing you are to leave trans people behind.

Are trans folk in the UK all ready for Shit Christmas on Wednesday? Uncle Andy is bringing us a present! Can't tell you what it is but it's something to do with being banned from public life! So excited! 😭

I just learned the scientific name for Coyote is 'Canis latrans'. So clearly we need to adopt a new trans mascot here. Widely misunderstood, beautiful, intelligent creatures who are an essential part of the world and should be protected - trans people are found everywhere...

The concept of left wing terfs existing is wild (terfery in the UK comes from both directions). SOCIAL JUSTICE NOW! EXCEPT FOR THOSE GUYS! NO MORE BILLIONAIRES! EXCEPT FOR THE ONE WE REALLY LIKE! RESIST FASCISM! ALTHOUGH WE DO AGREE WITH THEM ABOUT SOME THINGS!

Labour people slapping themselves on the back about how great Andy is and how progressive he is going to be... until trans people are included in your plans, we will always be the ghost at the feast. You are enemies of the LGBTQIA+ community. Literally Theresa May was better than you lot.

Do businesses think if they allow trans people to be harrassed in their premises they can just say 'we're following the EHRC guidance' and we therefore WON'T boycott the shit out of them? If so, bless their little hearts.

'...and I say to you... it may seem like a distant dream today in 1997... but one day a Labour government WILL make sure no one can use a public toilet without someone asking what genitals they have! Now join in with me, everyone.... THIIIINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTTTERRRR'

For goodness sake can we stop with the 'so you want trans men in women's toilets then?' thing. IT DOESN'T WORK. They thought of that - trans men can be asked to leave male AND female toilets, as long as there is a facility for them to use. The cruelty and humiliation IS THE POINT.

Burnham will talk about hope and optimism today. Remember, trans people are not included in those sentiments. Burnham offers us nothing.

Jaye @jayebutler-moore.bsky.social · 20/07/2026
If Burnham rewrote the Equality Act to include trans people properly again - what votes would he lose? Who is voting Labour because they're transphobic, but otherwise would vote Conservative or Reform? I just don't believe that voter exists.

So much misinformation being spread on tiktok about the new EHRC Code by seemingly well meaning cis people who simply have not read a single thing trans people have been saying about this code or bathroom bills in general, and it's all being amplified by terrified and misinformed trans people.

Ok, I have to say - I was cynical and angry going into this world cup, because I'm pissed off with my country and the way England has treated my community recently. But I have watched some of the football with my 91 year old Mum, who likes footie, and I have got into it.

Allow me to reiterate my previous statement now the EHRC guidance is passing, regarding me being required to use different spaces from the ones I have used for the last two decades without any problems. Statement follows : No.

Ironic that US soldiers are apparently big old sissies with low testosterone whereas trans women on eostrogen are apparently incredibly manly and too strong to compete with other women. 🤔
