In summation: the new guidelines were rejected by DOZENS of people at my organisation so the higher-ups just passed that sentiment along. Tight ship. Transphobic from top to bottom. 👍

Oh, it turns out it's way worse than just one person with a grudge. I am regretting the detective work I did today. This new guidance was shown to the dozens of process owners at this organisation and *almost every single one* said "we aren't going to do this". That's why it was shot down.

I tend to refer to "the gods" instead of "God" because I am not sure if any god exists but if there is one then there are probably more

bites it's literally impossible impossible for me to be a good employee because I am a disabled transsexual who works for horrible bastards

Penny @pabco.uk · 5h

So now here we are, the proof laid quite bare indeed. There is no longer any plausible deniability. There is a literal conspiracy against trans people who work for my organisation. Institutional transphobia in broad daylight. I am at a loss.

This had financial implications. I was unable to open new bank accounts, apply for new jobs. I had to put personal projects on hold because I could not apply for funding. I fell into depression because of this shit. I tried to chalk it up to incompetence for a while but that soon got difficult.

I struggled for 18 months to get my info corrected and all the while I was unable to prove my identity to *anyone* because all of my payslips had an incorrect name written on them. I was unable to get new photo ID because payslips are used as a proof of use of name.

Penny @pabco.uk · 5h

Longtime followers may recall that I had an *absolute nightmare* updating my personal info. It was "rolled back" without permission, it was entered incorrectly, I was lied to about the erasure of my old info. I have been deadnamed and misgendered by my employer.

Penny @pabco.uk · 5h

Earlier this year my employer funded a 9-month review of the procedures for trans people updating their personal information with HR. After submission and getting the thumbs up from EDI and the head of HR, it was immediately shot down by higher-ups before it could be implemented. What the fuck?

challenged myself to take a good pic with the telephoto lens indoors and I think it came out pretty cute ✨

A photo of Penny, who is sitting in a ventilation room. Large foil-clad pipes twist behind her and conduits and cables run in front of her. Two concrete pillars frame the edge of the photo, one is very dirty and the other is very clean.

Penny is wearing an oversize camo-green adidas zip-up hoodie, a red tee with a white neckline, and pale blue jeans. Her feet are out of sight, tucked behind a girder.

not smoking weed is good for my brain but holy shit my dreams are unbearable and my body aches so much worse, so I suppose what I'm trying to say is that not smoking weed is bad for my brain

cw: self harm learning to tattoo and then inking myself quite a lot has also helped a lot; it's like self harm except you end up with art instead of concerned looks from strangers

How I Finally Got Around to Treating My Depression: - ❌ drugs - looked at the moon a lot - bought a new 'puter - stopped trying to force myself to do art - reduced investment in my job - meditation instead of dissociation - stopped punishing myself for being socially absent - food and water

Penny @pabco.uk · 8h

it's crazy how if you get back in the habit of meditating you stop dissociating and your depression starts to ease

Penny @pabco.uk · 8h

you would definitely enjoy working in a theatre - so many hideaway spots for a snooze
