Trans and intersex people in the UK need you to be loud and angry about the new "deception as to sex" guidance released which makes trans and intersex people legally guilty of rape if we don't disclose our gender identity and/or the sex we were assigned at birth to sexual partners.
This is particularly going to harm trans and intersex sex workers, who often have a higher number of sexual partners who we might keep our trans or intersex identity from for our safety.
"To summarize this guidance in the simplest terms, it treats a trans or intersex person not disclosing their gender identity and/or the sex they were assigned at birth as a form of deception which negates consent."
"This interpretation of part of the existing Sexual Offences Act (2003) places an unreasonable burden on trans and intersex people to inform our sexual partners of our medical history, while no such burden is placed on cis perisex people who are allowed to rely on assumption."

Damn. I. Have. Had. A. Week.
Monday? Torturing myself over internalised ableism, nightmares, and disability payments.
Tuesday? Appointment got cancelled. I went somewhere else. There were no wheelchair accessible vehicles to get me home. Google maps lied to me about the bus route and I got stranded in a whole different area of the city
Yesterday? Recovering from that bullshit. Learning Citizen Soldier are gonna be performing in the UK in November
Today? Only 5 hours sleep. The rearranged appointment. Two taxis and too much heat leading to motion sickness. Now in the present? Just spent over an hour battling a fucking hornet that came in my window
How's your week going?

Wheelchair users are moving.
Whether it's self propelling in a manual wheelchair, using the controls on a power chair, driving a mobility scooter? Wheelchair users are moving.
I've been on a tough journey today. Realising that my manual wheelchair isn't enough. But yknow what I noticed?
My ableism towards power chair users.
You see I thought that a power chair user wasn't really moving, the chair was. Until I pictured myself using that tool.
Why did it have to take my realisation that a power chair would help ME for me to see power chair users in a different light?
I was separating the chair from the user, even when I started using my own manual wheelchair. I saw power chairs as inherently different from manual chairs.
This even manifested in how I think about my own movement. Instead of moving, I thought about self propelling as "moving myself". That wording frames different forms of movement as lesser than others.
They are not.
Society has told us that walking is the only acceptable form of movement. It is not.
However you need to move, you should move. Whether you are on your feet, pushing wheels, or pressing buttons or using a joystick, you are moving. You are making those movements happen, no matter what way you're making the wheels go round.
Wheelchair users move. Just like everyone else.
#ableism#wheelchair#disability#education#power chair#wheelchair user#raising awareness#externalised ableism#internalised ableism#important#changing perspectives#personal experience#ive not seen anyone say this directly before#and its horrible that it needs to be said directly#one day we will reach a place where that work pays off

Let me ask you, transphobes.
If the "trans agenda"/"wokeness"/all of that is child abuse, what is the point behind it?
What is the point in making a child believe someone can be transgender or non binary? What is the outcome these so-called abusers are hoping for? What is the point of "indoctrinating" kids when nothing practical comes of it?
People different from yourself exist. Let us live our lives as we let you live yours, and teach your kids to do the same.
#tw vent#transphobia#fuck transphobes#oh hey duggee used “their” for a raccoon that is probably never going to appear in the show again the world is burning /s

New headcanon that Rei can't bake. She tries with Masuki and Rokka when Masuki wants to bake a cake and the flour won't come out the packet so she turns it upside down and gives it a good hard shake
Masuki's doubled over laughing, Rokka's freaking out about the mess, and Rei is never going to attempt baking again

So I had a hysterectomy today (hooray!) and I brought along my stuffed orca, Shamu, as a comfort object. And everyone i interacted with during my pre-op was like "Oh! Who's this?" so I was telling them all about him, how he's been with me since I was 9 and gone on every single vacation and road trip, and they were telling me about their own stuffed buddies (one lady said she still has hers after 40 years!) and all of this while I was signing consent forms and providing a list of the things I'd brought with me, you know, small talk.
So then a nurse comes over and goes "Okay, I've got some stickers I'll put on your things so we know they're yours" and I'm like "OK cool" so she puts a sticker on my coat and stickers on my bags of clothes and then she turns to Shamu and I'm like "oh I guess he gets a sticker too"
But no. She pulls out a hospital bracelet that's an exact copy of mine and slaps it on his tail, like so:

And i was delighted by this, so I took a picture to send to my friends, who were equally delighted, and were cracking me up with their reactions (like so:)

Anyway, they take me back and put me under, and when I awake groggily a few hours later it takes me a minute to get my bearings, so I don't notice Shamu at first. But then I realize he's tucked up next to me in the gurney, so I grab him, and my hand touches gauze.
And I'm like "huh?" so I look at him and I realize


They gave my fucking orca a hysterectomy
