Hey gang, who is in Chicago? I will be there last week of September, looking for speaking opportunities. Would love to discuss this—the subject of my upcoming book—especially as it’s an election year. The history of trans people goes as far back as, well, people. And the current attacks on trans people have ugly precedent among fascists and right wingers. I have the receipts, and I’ll be in town anyway for a friend… love to set up a gig (helps defray expense of travel).
RIP Charlie Bradbury, you would’ve loved hacking into JK Rowling’s bank accounts and donating her millions and millions of dollars to trans people and trans organizations
I just think it’s funny that people who unwilling to do research into the people they’re trying to kill also can’t do research into what they think are great scathing treatises.

Me, a 30 something trans woman, has the power to remove all of JK Rowling's rights? Based. Good. Hope so. Terfs shouldn't have any rights as terfs, because terfs are deeply fascistic who want to take away peoples rights while crying victim lying that their rights are being threatened. Terfs are professional pissbabies.
“By Merlin’s beard! Look at all those tulips, they’re so cute!” You said more excited than ever for your last day of visit in Amsterdam.
“Those are red and gold just like us! So fucking great.” Lily smiled and put her camera in front of her eyes. “I’m totally taking a pic of you guys in front of it.”
Your smile widened as you took place beside Remus in front of the flower arrangement. The charming scent of both the flowers and your boyfriend making your heart beat faster.
“You should get some portrait as well, Lils. That’d look sick. Not like that! Just get Y/N alone and zoom a bit.”
Once Marlene was happy with the way the camera was set, she asked Sirius to place you a bit more to the side. The camera pointed at you and the attention being on you was a bit embarrassing but you shrugged it off as soon as everyone was satisfied.
You moved slowly and smiled as Sirius and James were giving you thumbs up. It made you laugh even.
“As much as we love you, dear, those are not for you.” Sirius said a smirk glued to his face.
You frowned and turned around only to find Remus, one knee on the paved floor, and his hands holding a small box. Your heart missed a beat. As your brain drew the conclusion, your vision became blurry with tears but your lips gave a loving smile.
“Hey darling” Remus said softly. “I’m sorry I took so long to come up with this, but I really wanted it to be perfect for you. I love you so much darling. So much I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you do me this honour?”
Despite some passage of time since Z*slav destroyed our hopes and dreams by canceling such a beautiful queer story on Max (*cough*OFMD*cough*), headlines like this make me furious. We really couldn't have just one nice thing.
Instead, TERFs make more money with subpar storytelling and harmful narratives.
Tfw you go from i love this show/book/movie but it just needed better character writing and less plot holes and better world building and better this and better that and you slowly realise you never even liked the actual piece of media but instead you liked the concept and you liked what could've been done with the concept if it had a better creator.
Hey all, just a reminder not to follow me if you post/reblog Harry Potter fandom content. There are so many more issues with the franchise than the fact that the writer is a TERF — blatant antisemitic imagery, obvious racism down to the names of the characters, having protagonists be literal slave owners — and the transphobia thing alone is reason enough to call it off.
Please either find a new fandom or leave me alone.
They tried to get me to watch 'Fantastic Beasts' which is written by JK ROWLING, and then complained about me not liking her. Asked me why, I said 'do you know anything she's ever said?', and my father complained that I answered with a question, when it was a question that would go on TO FUCKING EXPLAIN HIS.
I said if it was made by JK Rowling, I'd leave, so I had to look it up to find out because nobody would tell me. My father complained saying I didn't even watch any of her movies, and I didn't know if it was good or not. I was saying it was because I didn't like JK. I left, went upstairs to my room where I'm currently at.
Now they're talking downstairs saying I need to get off the internet because I 'believe everything I see online', when I was talking about TWEETS FROM THE HORSE'S GODDAMN MOUTH.
AND YET IF MY FATHER DOESN'T FUCKING LIKE SOMETHING BECAUSE OF PROPAGANDA HE SEES ON THE GODDAMN TELEVISION, HE'S SO FUCKING RIGHT AND NOBODY CAN TELL HIM OTHERWISE AND NO FUCKING PERSON AROUND HIM CAN LIKE WHAT HE DISLIKES, OR WATCH THAT SHIT AROUND HIM. YET I CAN'T DISLIKE SOMETHING AND NOT WATCH IT, BUT HE ALWAYS FUCKING CAN.
