One of our siblings was murdered recently, and you need to know about it.
TW // transphobia and violence against trans people
Brianna Ghey was a 16-year-old trans girl from Warrington, England. On Saturday, February 11th 2023, Brianna was found dead on the side of a park with multiple stab wounds. Two 15-year-olds have been taken into custody in connection with her murder.
People in the Warrington area have alleged that Brianna was being bullied in school, and that neither the administration nor the police did anything.
Despite this, local police have said there is no evidence that the attack was hate-based and most news articles don't mention her status as a trans woman. This is deliberate. This is genocide by the hands of transphobes and TERFs.
Britain does not have gender self-identification (your legal gender being determined by how you identify and not any arbitrary medical requirements), meaning even in her death she will be deadnamed and misgendered on her death certificate.
She deserved so much better.
Mourn the dead, and fight like hell for the living.
EDIT: A verified GoFundMe has been set up for Brianna.

inspired by @fixing-bad-posts , a homophobic religious group gave me this booklet at the fair and i wanted to make it into something queer. i love all of my trans masc brothers. we are the deciders of our own masculinity.

people have said "the girls and gays" so much that a lot of cishet women are under the impression that gay bars are spaces that should prioritize their comfort as well, even if they're not queer

i don't know what aphobe needs to hear this but... no one is forcing you to use the split-attraction model.
the split-attraction model is nothing but a tool. it's a way for some people to better explain their attraction. if you don't like/want/need it, then great! just don't use it.
for a lot of aspec people, though, it can help describe complicated feelings around attraction considering how much of society is amatonormative/allonormative.
(oh, and btw... aro/ace people are not the only people who can use the split-attraction model! anyone can use it!)
