JK Rowling calls Nathan Cofnas a racist, and Cofnas responds by saying that he is just applying the same logic to race as she does to trans people. Quite.

On Wednesday known transphobe spoke at a Green Party Women Webinar. Here they reveled in the relentless harassment of Jason Arday (RIP). This is who transphobes are. Bullies. Hate filled bullies.
Another example of a rancid transphobe who took guardian/observer money shitting on any minority for money.
hi @sonia-sodha.bsky.social. got to be worth a try
Very interesting that @privateeyenews.bsky.social has deleted the videos of @helenlewis.bsky.social laughing at Jason Arday. I wonder why.
‘Race realist’ ‘Gender critical’ Hate loves to launder itself but it’s always just hate and bigotry
A reminder that this was started by a “Race Realist” who got fired by Cambridge for being racist and the media interviewed him and lapped it up
I should also add that brands advertising on The Telegraph should pull their adspend. The ‘dirty attention’ economy is largely funded by advertising revenue. While regulation struggles to catch up, ethical brands can and should set a better standard.
I am now assuming that the next time you hear that siren it’s because I’ve gone for a piss in a public toilet.
Waiting for the Patrick Allen voiceover to go with the fucking ‘you’re all about to die’ alert on my phone.
JK Rowling has said, more than once, publicly that people consuming Harry Potter means they support her. And her transphobia. She uses her vast wealth to do very real world harms to trans people, and in particular...trans women. There is no ethical consumption. None. It's that easy.
Hiking is my peaceful place. Where I get to be away from people. This heat has been brutal but look at me: I’m ALIVE
Introduce yourself as what almost killed you: (most recently). Hi. I’m Emily
Introduce yourself as what almost killed you: Hi, I'm caught in an undertow while innertubing.
Happy ‘reopening of parliamentary standards investigation day’ to all who celebrate. Unless the pretend police have told you to keep away of course
They will conclude that having the most extreme leader ever (a feat in itself) needs more extremism. Right wing brains are cooked.
I wish the Conservatives were as alarmed as I am about them finishing *behind Restore* in the Greater Manchester byelection.
This is why you dont try to compromise or concede anything to these horrors
JK Rowling centre says Amnesty apology does not solve ‘reputational damage’ — The Independent
Beira’s Place was among organisations labelled ‘anti-rights’ in a briefing document.

I know it’s an old and hackneyed point but I always go back to it. Suffragettes fought *against* the notion of sex based rights; sex based rights were the ones men had and women didn’t. It was seen as appalling to deny people rights based on their biology.
Reality check: "Women's hard won rights": - did NOT include defining women by biology, the slogan was "biology is not destiny!" - did NOT seek sex segregation, they fought for inclusion of women - did NOT advocate "sex-based rights", they fought AGAINST that and FOR equality regardless of sex
Right that’s enough on here for another few months. Here’s me signing off. Please try harder to get the twitter wankers to fuck off back there
These wankers kill us at our prides. Kill us with legislation, kill us in our bedrooms - they think we will crumble. They’re wrong. All I now know is that I WILL be at Berlin pride in the future and will outlive their hatred
Well, with the media suppression of the massive trans pride march in London yesterday, looks like the only pride celebrations and protests queer kids will be hearing about as they form their identities will be ones where people get murdered. It Gets Better, aye www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c3...
Police name suspect after car driven into Berlin Pride event, with one dead and 16 injured
Police are searching for a man named Abdul B. and say several people were reportedly stabbed in the incident.
bbc.co.uk
There will be a lot of right wingers trying to make currency from the identity of the man arrested in Berlin as a means of attacking Muslims. The same people who attack queer people day in day out and who behind closed doors will be celebrating the deaths.
Fuck the EHRC Fuck the Labour Party Resist, organise and LIVE
I despise trans medicalists more than transphobes
I’m still alive. If anyone cares. Heart still fucked but I persist
People saying ‘labour’ are the answer to anything (other than ‘who have fucked up more completely than any other political entity in British history?’) are some really fucking special cases
Fella I have known since long before transition has blocked and unfriended me across platforms because I questioned his undying support for Starmer and the assertion that the green win was ‘posturing’. What a fannybaws
Just read the IGR statement on trans ban in the US. Never read such mealy mouthed shite. Totally on brand for them. Just pop a trans flag on things and all is well eh? IGR? I’ve shit ‘em
Fucking hell. The sky news wallahs look like they’ve had a stroke in the face of a consistent, decent politician
Sky News don't seem as excited as the rest of us. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Npvw...
