Look If You're Cis Dont Reply To Jk Rowling And Then Screenshot Your Tweet And Post It. Donate To Trans

look if you're cis dont reply to jk rowling and then screenshot your tweet and post it. donate to trans charities, specifically british trans charities, because jk lives here and has been informed by british politics. thats why shes a terf.

i know everyone likes to pretend trans rights issues are universally similar, but trans rights issues in the uk are wildly different. fight on the context she is

mermaidsuk, which helps trans youth get help

albert kennedy trust, helps homeless lgbt people (the uk currently has one dedicated homeless shelter for lgbt people, and its in london)

all about trans, which is trying ensure trans people are better represented in the media

trans rights are human rights, and trans people in the uk deserve our voices heard as much as trans americans. jk rowling is not an anomaly, and represents the average british feminist. fighting against terfs requires systematic change, something british trans people not only cant do alone, but something we have to try and do as terfs actively lobby the government to take away our human rights (with there currently being talk of a bill which would cause under 18s to lose the ability to begin transitioning in any form, and a member of the house of lords currently waxing romantically about having trans rights removed in multiple areas)

you have to understand that talking to jk doesn't work. she doesnt care. use your time productively and spread these charities around. dont even reblog this post if you dont want to, make your own. just make it known that trans people in the uk are used to people acting like this, and soon we may not be able to do anything about them at all

“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”

Fan theories before Infinity War: Haha I wonder if they’ll make a mustache joke or Sherlock joke! Maybe we’ll see Hawkeye do a cool thing and have a side quest :)

Fan theories after Infinity War: IF THEY DONT BRING EVERYONE BACK TO LIFE AND DECAPITATE THANOS WHILE PUTTING MY HEART BACK IN MY CHEST I WILL FUCKING DIE.

The UK @waterstones special edition of Wayward Son is RIDICULOUSLY GOOD. There’s a sprayed edge that MATCHES BAZ’S SUIT. (That’s a Kevin Wada illustration exclusive to the UK.) Also an illustrated page, signed by me! Order here. They do ship internationally. Here is a guide to all the English language editions of Wayward Son. I’ll post translations here, too, when I have news.

Isn’t it weird that we were all so excited for Infinity War and now the majority of us wish it never happened?

Miles, sobbing: “I’m so so sorryy, dad. YooU hh;;avee,, ,to aarrest m.”

Officer Davis: “No, Miles, it’s okay. The restaurant gave you those crayons. Also you’re 5.”
