David Tennets approach to trans rights being as visceral and outraged as most of us is a refreshing thing to see compared to the loser celebs that just wear a shirt and deny it when backpedaling. He is risking his career to recognize humanity and that’s the energy we need from celebrities.

This should go without saying, but if you are one of my students and you are following me here—please leave. This is not a work-related account, the content I post here is not for you, and I need you to respect that boundary. If I recognise a name of someone I teach, I will block you.

I did not mean to go on that much of a rant, and I can't go walk it off until the postie gets here to pick up a package.

Fuck labour Fuck Starmer Fuck Wes Streeting in particular Fuck the Tories Trans liberation not acceptance or assimilation End medical gatekeeping End the forced registration of trans people for marriage and death And free Palestine—because none of us are free until all of us are free.

The media won't change. The political will won't change. The NHS won't suddenly spin up half a dozen informed consent clinics and train GPs properly. We won't be any safer on the streets. Our youth won't be able to say that they feel accepted and supported.

Oh, my bills might be a bit cheaper, and maybe I won't have to worry about the collapse of the university sector so much. But I have no faith in Starmer or Labour, that things will actually get better for me and mine. We will get nothing but platitudes and compromised scraps.

It sickens me. It really does. To think that we are finally going to be free from 5168 days of Tory rule, that nothing is going to fucking change—for me, for my friends, for my loved ones, for my community, for the youth we are so desperate to protect.

Where is the compassion? Where is the dignity? Where is the respect that these politicians claim to treat us with? Why are there three kids—actual kids—protesting outside the NHS HQ right fucking now, demanding healthcare, being threatened with arrest? Where are the offers to sit down with them?

We are silenced, we are ignored, we are denied a voice in the discussions that affect our lives. Starmer wants to meet with Rowling over her concerns, and wants David Tennant to keep quiet. What about Rowling's concerns make them worthy of consideration, but not Tennant's? Because he said a swear?

I'm so, fucking, tired. 10 fucking years. A decade of daily articles spewing lies and fabrications about this imagined threat that trans people pose. And nothing, not one iota of truth has materialised. None of the stories reflect the real lived experiences of trans people in this country.
