TransActual partnered with @scottishtrans.bsky.social and @transsolidarity.bsky.social to bring messages from this month’s Mass Lobby for Trans Equality to the Labour conference in Liverpool, and to ask the party: what now for our standing on LGBTQ+ rights?

I'm actually very glad that there was a Labour Trans Rights rally at party conference this week. I know many will be suspect & ready to pelt tomatoes at me for this but it's good a vaguely centre left party retains a presence of trans allyship & this shouldn't go away off of labour's radar

The fact that Isabel's work is now primarily going to be known through the lens of a rapist man when it means so much to trans women is just so deeply upsetting.

I saw Not Another D&D Podcast last night live and I've not listened to much of it but it was really entertaining. I think NADDPOD captures what it feels like having your players just run with bits for a whole session really well. I kinda like that it's not a high-end production actual play

The current huge story about the gang rape at Cornell University, a crime originally brushed off and covered up by the administration, is SOLELY the product of the student paper, the Cornell Daily Sun, which doggedly pursued the story. Not the NYT or CNN. An independent student paper. #Cornell

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR | Cornell Won’t Listen, We Will
The Sun's Editor-in-Chief Sophia Dasser '28 calls on the Cornell community to share its reactions to the Chi Phi lawsuit and the University's response, on the record, for a permanent public archive.

Big love to everyone who has contributed so far, an inspiring example of support and solidarity that knows no borders Just been paid? Donate now, let's get it over the line. Anything extra will go to legal costs for other comrades in similar situations 🖤✊❤️🏴 chuffed.org/project/2022...
This is what antifascist solidarity looks like!
We want to send huge thanks to everyone who has shared and donated so far. In a week we have raised over £8000, which is phenomenal. The support and solidarity from near and far has given our comrade and his family a massive morale boost and really lifted their spirits through some very tough times. They are and will be forever grateful. It's been a very awesome show of antifascist solidarity and a collective stand sending a clear message very much echoing the old adage that an attack on one is an attack on us all. Donations have come in from Italy, the Basque country, Spain, France, Germany, Belgium and beyond, providing a strong reminder that we are everywhere, we share the same struggles and our solidarity knows no borders.

So after just one week we are nearly there at the target of £10000. Please help give it a last push over the line by sharing this crowd funder as widely as you can and donating if you have the means to do so. Your support and solidarity has and continues to make a real difference to a comrade facing legal attacks by the state for his participation in the struggle against the rise of fascism. He has seen so clearly this week that he is not alone. We also want to remind everyone that anything we raise above the target will go to support other antifascists targeted by state repression. We hope to be able to provide some solidarity funds for legal costs for other comrades in similar situations, arrested and dragged through the courts for taking a stand for community self defence and for a better world.

My ONLY public comment on the Western Mass. Lesbian Bar: Someone at one of the three Transfem Socials in my city (and, the largest, which has well over 50 women a month) has tested positive for COVID. Ping on the discord server to remind ppl to test, not come if sick. It's as simple as that.

Listening to Days by the Mountain Goats and Best Hard Rock Albums 2013 to me feels one of their most meta songs. It's looking back at what's passed in music, how their role has changed in the decade+ since, veering back into childhood too like a lot of Darnielle's work does

Somehow, impossibly, the incredible Joshua Cassara has died. Truly one of our modern greats, but also an incredibly kind and gracious soul. My heart goes out to his family and friends.
This is Martha Cassara, Josh’s wife. I’m saddened to share the impossible news that Josh died on September 22nd of heart complications. You might know him for his celebrated work in comics, but he was also a good man, a wonderful father and husband, my best friend, and the love of my life. I’ll share more in the future, but for now that’s about all I can manage. If you knew Josh, you know that he approached the world with humor, sweetness, and kindness. He would not have wanted your condolences. He would have wanted your laughter and toasts. I would love it if you shared something below. Not your sadness, please, but any sort of happiness he brought you through his art, his friendship, or even a brief encounter.

May he feel all the love he gave us all. He was one of a kind ❤️
