Trans and pride flags at protest in London
One year ago today.
Our small, skilled, volunteer team hasn’t stopped since the FWS judgment, and we need your help.
Will you support our work? www.zeffy.com/en-GB/donati...
Most of what we do is behind the scenes, but here’s how we have used your funding so far:
📄 We have set out the bare minimum for a new EHRC Code in this thread. If the Equality Act cannot achieve that, it will no longer be worthy of the name.
🏳️⚧️ Will you help us build a fighting fund for what comes next?
Now is not the time to give up. We’re all tired, but we need your help to hold this government to account and fight for a better future. Your help makes a real difference.
🚨 Now is not the time to give up and retreat.
Please write to your MP in our joint campaign with TransActual to protect trans workers actionnetwork.org/letters/fix-...

Oh, also added some helical bits to your hyper shot, because helixes are cool. Also added a nice bursty vfx when you activate the Lantern Crash.

Awesome, done!
A picture of Starmer and Mandelson with Starmer Must Go in the background with green party logo and imprint
Peter Mandelson failed his Government security vetting.
Starmer appointed him as ambassador to the US anyway.
No more buck passing, no more mysteriously vanishing mobile phones, we need the truth.
Starmer must go.
A year of hurt and harm. We know what happened next. They promised us this wouldn’t happen. Today is one year since the Supreme Court said their decision wouldn’t cause any disadvantage to trans people.
Our lives have become less free, less safe and less equal. Trans people have been kicked out of bathrooms, forced out of workplaces, and outed against their will. Both cis and trans people have experienced dangerous gender policing, putting their safety at risk. Trans women and girls have been torn away from their friends, in groups that wanted to remain inclusive. Where is the dignity? Where is the respect?
For trans people to be meaningfully protected by equality laws, they must protect our ability to live our lives as ourselves as Parliament intended. Any changes to guidance from this government will need to be more than trivial tweaks to make a difference to the mess this ruling has created. We need action from Labour to protect trans people, defend inclusive organisations and respect human rights - or we will see yet more years of legal protections being undermined and trans people harmed." Our team speaking to media on the anniversary
⚖️ One year ago, the Supreme Court promised us our rights were still protected.
🟰 Since then - our lives have become less free, less safe and less equal. Where is the dignity and respect in this?
📝 It's going to take more than minor tweaks to make a difference here.
What happens now? ➡️
1. In a landmark ruling, the Montana Supreme Court has declared that the constitution, one of the most progressive in the nation, entirely protects transgender people.
The ruling is even insulated from SCOTUS decisions, due to how state constitutions work.

It seems to be a special kind of self hate to scroll on social media specifically looking for things I know will hurt me.
Why generative AI doesn’t belong in crafting/handmade spaces We’re going to use a plot point in Schitt’s Creek for this example... You may be familiar with it! A photograph of Alexis Rose saying "Ew, David no!"
Why generative AI doesn’t belong in crafting/handmade spaces Later in the television series Schitt’s Creek (S5 Ep10), main character David Rose decides to open an apothecary called “Rose Apothecary.” (Photo of David Rose) He hand curates and selects handmade, high quality items made by small business owners he knows he can trust. (Photo of Rose Apothecary building) It is an adorable addition to an otherwise run-down town, and it does well! High quality, handmade items sell at a premium
Why generative AI doesn’t belong in crafting/handmade spaces During a local small business event in town in which he is representing Rose Apothecary, he notices a former business partner who has set up a table not far from him. (Photo of David and Stevie at the event) She and her business partner, who looks suspiciously like David himself, are selling “hand curated, hand made” lotions, creams, etc, just like Rose Apothecary. (Photo of Antonio and Wendy at the event) However, they are selling them much, much cheaper, undercutting David. It later turns out that they are purchasing cheap manufactured goods and relabeling them to make them seem hand crafted/small batch.
Why generative AI doesn’t belong in crafting/handmade spaces This is exactly what generative AI, whether used in whole or part does when placed in a handmade space. It devalues artisans who have spent a lot of time, money, and effort making something good by creating a “rip-off” product that sells for cheaper. Even if you are “only” using generative AI for labels or logos, even having just that reduces trust in all of the vendors around you for anyone who has a keen eye to AI generated assets. This destabilizes trust in the entire collective of artisans, because if one vendor is getting away with using gen AI, then who else is?

Pls. Do what you can.
Actually I see you have a discord server, however I'm not sure if its only for people applying to play with you.

the human made icon
I want to be a better steward for the Human Made icon. If you have any ideas on how I can get the word out for it more please let me know. Do you think game retailers would be interested in stickers they could pass out? folks interested in pins? What can I do to support you using this icon? a zine?
The government was forced to admit the EHRC’s transphobic draft guidance got it wrong, and they’ve had to send it back to the drawing board.
But the fight is far from over. They plan to bring an updated version back to parliament in May. So we need to act – fast 👇

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the Crowdfunder for our film, I was shown the rough cut a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it, they've done an amazing job.
However we need funds for a cinema release as selling the film in this climate is an uphill struggle
