On the 5th August, the EHRC's Code of Practice becomes statutory guidance. It will make life even harder for many trans & non-binary people. It's unworkable & harmful. The Good Law Project is challenging & wants to hear from people affected by these exclusions. goodlawproject.org/discriminato...

‘Discriminatory’ and ‘unworkable’ trans guidance to come into force | Good Law Project

The equalities minister has ordered the government’s harmful code of practice will apply from 5 August – we’re pushing back

Just had meeting with kiddo's school. She has been fully supported, treated with full equality & dignity for years. All of that changes from September. Full segregation & humiliation across the board. The school staff cried in the meeting. This will absolutely lead to children's deaths 1/2

My take: Supergirl is just a superhero version of Leon, but better because a) Kara has a more complex backstory and b) no creepy vibes. I'm sure the incels would have a very normal reaction to this take.

We will not allow this administrations alienation of our kiddos take away their joy & athletic existence! 🏳️‍⚧️Registration is free! Just bring yourself and your joy! 🔗https://www.transupfrontil.com/registerbeachday

The DoD change to the list of officially recognized religions is a travesty, but it’s also the starkest example of out-group homogeneity bias I have ever seen. The idea that Christianity has a bunch of denominations and Judaism, Islam, and Hinduism are monolithic is the height of ignorance.
