Trying to skeet more about the things I love. Making music, software engineering, nature, astronomy, science. Unfortunately I'm📍🇬🇧☠️. So I tend to (re)skeet about billionaires, fascists and anti trans bigots. I know (sigh) but this is 🇬🇧 in 2026. 💚🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🇵🇸💚

Why can't they just LUTFA?! They have some sick and deranged kink or obsession about abusing and hurting trans folks.

The NHS Wales transphobic BS just shows that the long waiting lists and wretched anti-human state of transgender health care in the UK is absolutely intentional. It's a feature, not a bug. It's all about trying to limit the number of trans individuals in the population by making life harder.

Just so predictable. Labour got themselves into this because those who aren't True Believers thought they could appease those who are then the issue would go away. Not so. The GCs are obsessives attempting a top down reorientation of our culture to spite a minority they despise. They must be fought.

It's seems to me that the guidance is just a mechanism to create lots of legal cases so they can litigate for what they actually want. They are well funded. This is like their bridgehead to move closer to their goal.

If there are three things that trans people need to remember if they’re using toilets in pubs, restaurants etc., it is these:
Asking about sex
13.161 Personal data includes information about a person's sex which may also be protected under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights
(ECHR). In particular, it is important to be aware that some people, including some trans or gender non-conforming people, may wish to keep such information private as far as possible and may find it distressing to be asked about their sex.
13.162
To comply with Article 8 of the ECHR, a service provider must be able to objectively justify asking an individual about their sex. A request for information about sex should only be made where it is a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim. Furthermore, a request for information about sex which is not a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim could also amount to unlawful indirect gender reassignment discrimination.13.170
3.170 It is unlikely to be either practical or appropriate to approach any particular dividual to make enquiries about their sex in relation to facilities, such as toilets, which are incidental to the primary service.

So both the two main claimed reasons for banning puberty-blockers have been shown, through peer-reviewed empirical research, to be wrong. Yvette Cooper needs to URGENTLY rescind her puberty-blocker ban, a ban my own research has shown, is causing significant long-term harm to trans children. 4/4

Instagram post by slaapkameractivist discussing the challenges queer people face after a Berlin Pride attack.

It reads: As queer people we should be able to mourn freely after the Berlin Pride attack. Instead we have to deal with racist white cishets, who generally are homophonic themselves,using this moment to pretend to care about queer people just so they can be proudly racist. "Immigration harms queer people". As if white people aren't harming us, and beating us up, and killing us, and forcing us to hide and stay closeted, and being upset by rainbow flags, and legislating us into early graves, etc.

And who is threatening LGBTQ rights @yuanfenyang.bsky.social? The Labour Party. Children have died due to your party's ideological ban on puberty blockers. More will likely die as a direct result of Labour's new Section 28. Why on earth did you think it was appropriate to attend a Pride event?

Labour Together has been forced to disclose internal documents to Jeremy Corbyn in response to a Subject Access Request.
The 583-page disclosure exposes new details about how Labour Together worked to dismantle the Corbyn project and undermine the British left.
"What is revealed makes the call for an independent inquiry into Labour Together overwhelming", says John McDonnell MP.

@jolyon.goodlawproject.org why are they using the term "transgender identity"? Surely it should be gender identity then it's use would be the same as "sexual orientation". Does it not prevent someone making you believe you are cisgender? Seems like it's more gender critical speak.
