Lookit these boys playing. 💙

I look back at my past self some days, and I see someone so well-intentioned and so broken by brainwashing and manipulation. I have so much love and compassion for past me. He did his best in some fucking impossible circumstances and with some pretty awful people breathing down his neck. He kept trying his hardest every day, no matter how small others made him think he was.

You can see it in his smile. His hope is great. His love is great. His pain is immeasurable.

I'm grateful for his sacrifice. I wouldn't be here without him.

A selfie showing a man (Jack) lying on the floor, smiling and looking slightly off-camera to the right. The tan dog (Maddox) is snuggled closely against his chest and neck, with its head resting upward. A blue patterned blanket is draped over an object in the background to the left, alongside the white bookshelves.

A low-angle, close-up selfie taken from floor level. A man with dark hair and a beard (Jack) lies on a wooden floor wearing a heather-red t-shirt. A large, tan dog (Maddox) lies next to him; the dog's paw is raised high in the foreground, blurred by proximity to the lens, while its snout rests near the man's cheek. White built-in bookshelves filled with books are visible in the background.

A playful, low-angle shot looking up from the floor. The man is visible on the left, eyes rolled back as if playing dead. The tan dog (Maddox) dominates the right side of the frame, appearing to roll on its back with a paw extended into the air in the same play dead pose. The background clearly displays tall, white shelving units packed with various books, indicating a library or study setting.

A close-up, eye-level shot of a man (Jack) and a tan dog (Maddox) lying side-by-side on a hardwood floor. Jack is on the left, smiling softly with his head resting on his arm. The dog is on the right, resting its chin on the floor and looking directly into the camera with a calm expression. The lighting is soft and natural.

Since 2020, 9 Black Trans women have been killed in North Carolina. Four of them were murdered in Charlotte. #BlackLivesMatter #TransLives

EMERGENCY!
A close friend of mine has been kicked out by her extremely bigoted religious nutjob ultra-conservative parents!
Is there anyone in the LA area who can help?

Its Ok to belong to a minority and be fucking angry about your situation ok? You can be FUCK ASS MAD about things and that does not in any way take away your right to have justice and equality! To be angry after being treated badly is NORMAL! ❤️ LOVE YOU! #blm #Translives #Lgbtq #Pride

Pride and much formaldehyde(!) - I just blogged for the first time in a few weeks. Read all about it!

Clockwise from top left: A view from just near my hotel; modern medicine showcased at the Hunterian Museum, including a titanium skull plate; Damien Hirst's sheep in formaldehyde; specimens also in formaldehyde at the Hunterian.

West Virginians share personal stories amid increasing anti-trans legislation and political attacks, highlighting the real lives impacted. Even local officials like Gov. Morrisey seem more interested in headlines than compassion. #WV #TransLives

Hey, trans fam... The weekend has gone really quickly! A trip to London yesterday, to the Hunterian Museum, and a recovery day today (the penalty for ageing!). Just living a normal life like everyone else.

What have Others been doing?

#Transgender #TransLIves

Eclectic specimens on display including the skeletons of a moa and a fruit bat.

Happy Sunday, #trans fam!! Unless you've chosen to do something energetic or exciting, may it be as peaceful as my lunchtime walk from the office a couple of days ago. x

Comment font les Youtubers pros pour continuer à produire leurs videos sans jamais mentionner les drames actuels, c'est ce que Fran se demande

https://youtu.be/vBV6lzGOwt0

Elle est principalement affectée par l'ostracisme US des personnes trans. Elle s'en confie sur sa chaîne et un noyau dur s'en plaint: "té là pour nous amuser, tes problèmes woke on s'en tape"

Hey, trans fam... I'm going to try hard not to be average. I don't want to be one of the mean girls(!)

[Boom, tssssh]

Hey, #trans fam, I don't know who needs to hear this today but you are all amazing human beings!

'To thine own self be true' - whether or not that truth includes social or medical transition. Only you can decide what is right for you.

I wrote about my experience of a Gender Identity Clinic last week, so I've followed up with a post about my sex change (gender reassignment) surgery: https://shutterbugofstone.blogspot.com/2025/07/surgery.html

On the way to surgery; a hospital corridor.

Trans fam, how are we all doing?

#Transgender #TransLives

Hi, world - if you see a trans woman in the Ladies then no, you didn't. If you see a trans man in the Gents then, again, no you didn't. Same goes for non-binary people who should feel safe to use the toilets that are right for them.

#Transgender #TransLives

Trans fam, how are we doing? Did anyone get to London Pride today? Did anyone else get to Classical Pride (at the Barbican, London) last night?

You are all amazing, and I hope you're having fab weekends ♥️

To make sure folk are aware: The #EHRCConsultation is still open until 15/07/2025 for Welsh-language responses. Nothing will happen before then.

Except that we will still know that we are who we do actually know, we are. Oh, and that we are who we say we are in spite of people denying that and othering us.

Courage, mes amis!
