The inhumane, unworkable and almost certainly unlawful Illegal Migration Bill became law today. On this dark day, my thoughts are with every person seeking safety who will be affected by this atrocious piece of legislation. We must fight for it to be repealed.

Trans women only "erase" women if you define women solely by their bodies In which case you define women in the same way as patriarchy.

Which is more likely? That huge numbers of lifelong (far) right wing men have suddenly become feminists or that being trans exclusionary isn't actually feminist?

This flying squirrel faked his own death, and created a whole crime scene…for attention. I think I’m in love.

The quote-tweets on this are incredible, "gender critical" person after person saying they are in favour of taking away the bodily autonomy of under 16 year olds who might need an abortion and implying that anyone who is against that is a paedophile. https://t.co/ipjf6vftop
Veil slips: Kellie-Jay Keen (aka Posie Parker) says girls/young women shouldn’t access reproductive service without parent permission. Rolling back women’s rights. That’s what “gender critical” is folks - first they come for trans then they come for you. https://t.co/TkWsLTc1eM

PSA: if you devote years of your life to political activism aimed at making it harder/impossible for trans people to access healthcare, civil society or just to live their lives without fear of violence & harassment, then you’re a transphobe, whether or not you use crude epithets

We don’t have the luxury of throwing up our hands on climate and saying “we’re doomed, let’s just go Mad Max on this.” We need to invest in the labour of care at every level and guarantee basic economic rights: housing, food, clean water.

Horrified by the ongoing discussion around trans prisoners. There are only 15 trans prisoners in Scottish prisons. Isla Bryson and Tiffany Scott are unusual cases. This is similar to #Section28 in the 1980s, where an entire minority was misrepresented as predatory. #Section35

78 years after the liberation of Auschwitz, we honour and pay tribute to the six million Jews who were senselessly murdered during the Holocaust. While the victims of these heinous atrocities perished, it is crucial to keep their memory alive. #HolocaustRemembranceDay
