transfems overanalyze and hyperanalyze and self police their own behaviours 24/7 to try and "unlearn" patriarchal internalization that everyone receives, to the point of being waist deep in encyclopedic feminist theory, and yet every conversation about socialization keeps

Every time a pair of lesbians pass another pair of lesbians on the street and, after passing, the individuals in each pair turn to one another and whisper “LESBIANS,” a new lesbian is born - Deuteronomy

QE2 died, so we only have one significant antiquated serial killer whose death all moral people root for: Henry Kissinger. Yet based on the reactions I’ve seen to mentions of his name, it seems that a lot of people don’t know why to root for Kissinger’s death. Here’s why: 1/26

Hah, lol. The Irish Times's journalists live in a different world!

Beware of misinfo about Irish ppl gloating over Queen Elizabeth's death. Americans seem to enjoy this idea & exaggerate it. It is not true for example that Irish dancers performed in celebration outside Buckingham Palace. This was an innocent post from Jan reposted out of context

Techie Twitter: freelancing work is going great for me and my team, and my clients want more freelancers! I am looking for seasoned Python programmers to work in fun projects, fully remote, and with very flexible hours. See this thread from last year for more details 👇

I'm looking for people with lots of experience, or who really have the motivation to learn. I need people who enjoy doing things right, geeks that can appreciate beauty and elegance in code and systems, and that care about the long-term sustainability of projects. 2/4

Think trans people are too mean about misgendering these days? Back in 1913, Amelio Robles Ávila would threaten to shoot anyone who called him a woman with a pistol. He lived openly as a man for 71 years and was accepted by his family, peers, and government.

I’d love to see a generation of students squatting the empty derelict buildings in Dublin City, turning them into socially useful creative spaces, and homes.

Now that KF is down (maybe) for the count, can we talk about some of the long term harm that site caused? How many trans folks, especially trans women, had to learn whole new ways of being and existing, had to change so much about ourselves, just to become unattractive targets?

Detained LGBT+ rights advocate Zahra Sedighi-Hamedani sentenced to death in Iran for. Yes in 21st century being homosexual is a punishable crime in Iran and now she and Elham Chobdar are sentenced to be executed. This act of terror must be condemn by the world. Be their voice.

An account with 13 tweets in the last 2 weeks and nothing else, 95k followers, and suddenly appearing multiple times in me feed, liked by people I follow.. It'samazing how fake this all is.

Same. In retrospect, I realised that hormones are so safe and slow that I could have just gone for a test drive instead of obsessing for months before putting on my first patch.

Self diagnosis is valid. I would have never gotten my ADHD diagnosis. If I didn't first do research and self diagnosed myself. Getting an official diagnosis can take many YEARS and be very expensive. And there are often barriers to getting it. It's a privilege to get diagnosed.

My cousin had to return to in-person work, got COVID from her boss, and passed away today. She leaves behind 13-year old twin girls, a husband, a mother who will now have to bury her last surviving child, and family who will forever miss her smile. The pandemic is not over.

The Irish gender clinic is abysmal but that thing about them losing 100s of referrals? It's much worse than that even back when I attended over a decade ago. Every single person I knew who went there had their referral "lost" and trying to get in contact with them was impossible

These 4 cis men run the ONLY gender clinic in the country. They've lost 100s of referrals, waiting lists are 3+ years long, & will refuse care if Ur autistic. But they're butthurt they cannot control every trans body and so want to stop referrals to the UK. Fixed it for you.

Sometimes I wonder if twitter is hiding what I post or if it's just that I post shite. Every time I retweet something there are a few likes, but on the rare occasion I write something of my own (like the tweet here)... Crickets. Not great for the aul RSD I tell you..

Saw this picture of a notorious gatekeeper of trans care and immediately thought he looked like Gl*nner. Do they all look the same?

Germany is to introduce a new bill allowing those 14+ to change their legal gender without the requirement of surgery or HRT 🙌 There are also talks of reforming health insurance to require cover gender-related care 🎉 This is SUCH welcome news 🥰

Shocking user experience from . First they send an email inviting you to register and then you cannot register because the service is not activated. Then they tell you that it will take THREE WEEKS for somebody to enable the line in the exchange! Is this amateur hour???

When an article says "some scientists think" then remember this: I, a scientist, once thought I could fit a whole orange in my mouth. I could, it turns out, get it in there, but I hadn't given sufficient thought to the reverse operation.

We need to stop engaging them! Not only it gives them more visibility, but it also makes my very curated timeline painful to read. Please stop arguing with bigots!

A pair of tweets with the names blotted out. The first one says "Jesus Christ never introduced himself with pronouns." 

The reply says "John 18:6: "Jesus said 'I am he'"

My Uncle went to Galway four times last week looking for help with his mental health, he spent over 12 hours waiting there one day only to be sent home because he wasn’t ‘severe’ enough. Saturday he killed himself.

Cis women should be standing against transphobia for the simple fact that it's wrong not because we're now becoming victim to it. Bigotry in all its ugly forms needs to be fought by each and every one of us and stamped out

If you think the NGS can't get any worse, oh yes it can! After well over a month, my GP finally received further communication from the National Gender Service. To say it was shameful would be an understatement. So let's get into that.. 🧵
