Got into a debate with my dad about furries and he dropped this brick on me without warning; "People were wanting to fuck wolf people since Ireland had kings you shites aren't original." Apparently Irish werewolves weren't monsters, and kings would invite them for '100 kisses' in bed. Huh.

The TERFs are organising and hate the idea of human rights protections being extended to transgender people.

The workshops will be in Central Wellington. Please DM me to register your interest.

Read the issues paper here.

The world is shit right now and it has been a bleak Pride month. I always hear cis allies ask "what can we do?" and one of the top answers is to donate directly to trans people in need. So here's a chance to make your allyship mean something & help someone afford a life-changing procedure.

Often I thought: good thing I'm not pregnant Trying to imagine what would happen to a pregnant woman in MO who was diagnosed w advanced cancer. Needs chemo & radio. Tries to get exemption to MO anti-abortion law ("to save mother's life") Given urgency of treatment to begin, what a nightmare.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

I didn't think that a person could secede. Does she identify as a state now? Does she think she is a city or something? Or did she mean renounce her citizenship?

Top tip for peeps that identify as male: Do that thing where you move up on to your hands and tippy toes (like a push up position) but relatively it moves you up height/lengthwise 4-6 inches. You can thank me later 😎

Tomorrow it is one year since Self-ID was introduced in NZ (the BDMRR bill). We will be sending some tweets to mark the occassion - mostly along the lines of everything the TERFs at the select committee said would happen hasn't. The sky hasn't fallen in like they said it would.

But the Lord God called to the man, ‘Where are you?’ He answered, ‘I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.’ And he said, ‘Who told you that you were naked?’ ‘Err... it’s pretty obvious. I mean, my cock’s right there.’ - Genesis 3:9-11

Your regular reminder that HPV shots are not just for teen girls, they are for everyone of every gender! In AMAB people HPV can lead to head and neck cancers, and causes about half of all penile cancer cases.

The idea that we are "polarised" and "divided" is an important one to people who want to stoke fear and resentment. We should resist that framing and remember that most people don't actually think that, esp our young people

I cannot tell you how frustrating it is that the English speaking world only looks at Canada when it comes to assisted dying. The Netherlands has over 20 years of experience with it, and is set up to make abuse pretty much impossible. Information in English here
