Friends, I’m posting about calls for actions for trans US residents and citizens (and our allies) in a new location: https://yozhik.party/. You can follow via RSS or via the fediverse: @trans . The calls to action are all things that can be undertaken by people living outside the US.
UK based domestic or European trans stuff is not moving. By the way, if you have not yet done so, you can design a paper coffin for Trans Kids Deserve Better who have dropped them at Wes Streeting’s office for more than 200 days since the blocker ban was announced. If you do a digital design, a helpful volunteer will print it out and deliver it direct to his office.
If you do a paper design (use the same template and print on A3), DM me or them to arrange somebody to pick it up or where to post it.
Unnecessary Disclaimers
Sharp readers will have noticed that yozhik is Russian for hedgehog. I got the domain originally because I wanted to launch a fan site for Hedgehog in the Fog. Because I love Soviet films and the stuff made for children is especially good. Anyway, it seemed fortuitous because here’s a tradition in England of activist groups using cute animals, so I’ve gone for it. The user name is from Trans Rights Across the Atlantic, and since “traa” is sometimes used disparagingly, I thought it would be amusing to steal it away from transphobes. Or at least make their conversation even more confusing if the group catches on.
Anyway…. yeah, somebody made an issue on github accusing me of being a transphobic Russian agent, which will be funny tomorrow.
Honestly, this is not the kind of shit I expect from github. This is so much more LinkedIn.
