Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away today according to the House of GG. She was a veteran of the Stonewall rebellion and a lifelong organizer for the safety and dignity of trans people, sex workers, and the incarcerated. She came from the same generation and milieu as Marsha and Sylvia. She was 78.

I've never understood why more people don't boycott Amazon. I just google the product name or search it on ebay, I don't think there's ever been something I couldn't find elsewhere in the 8 years since I last used it.

Thinking about the amount of time terfs have directly made my day worse (loads) even as a cis woman, versus the bad interactions I've had with trans people (zero). And how much the trans folks I know and love have enriched my life. Absolutely fuming at the wider harm terfs have created in this world

The best medical waiting room I've been in is when my mum was having chemo donkeys ago. Cancer care really is treated differently, the whole place had comfy cosy seats and soft warm colours (I wonder if they're also all hard and grey now)

Sat in a outsourced-to-private medical waiting room. The chairs are fancy but there's barely any. I've had to put headphones in because there's a huge tv absolutely blaring travel advertisements. I hate ittt

Did you used to make LiveJournal icons? Do you still have some of the ones that you made? I'm looking to include more icons in the second print run of my LiveJournal Iconic zine and would love to see yours! Share them here: form.jotform.com/252444103676...

Calling all gender outlaws! Leslie Feinberg—self-described “working-class, secular Jewish, transgender, lesbian, female, revolutionary communist” and the first theorist to advance the marxist concept of “transgender liberation”—was born today in 1949.

these monsters think "having fun and being social with co-workers" is time theft 😑

Vicky @technicolour.bsky.social · 28/08/2025
I searched "how to steal time from work" for some tips (I don't have a boss, I'm writing a zine where I encourage people to do this) and every result is an article about how to PREVENT time theft for employers. We really have lost the internet to terrible forces.

I'm looking forward to Pride this year! The good thing about Pride in Manchester is there's so much going on outside of the official organisation (who keep taking money from shitty sponsors like booking dot com) that you can total avoid it and still have fun
