Verona (she/her)

My grandma has advanced dementia so you can’t really trust anything she tells you. So when she told me a small horse has been visiting her in her care home, I just smiled and said “oh, really?” Guess who just got a photo of granny with a Shetland pony.

Sent this to my wife, telling her she needs to propose to me again.

Transphobia doesn't just harm trans people. It hurts cisgender women who don’t conform to a narrow, Eurocentric vision of womanhood. bit.ly/4dtdhu8

We are reporting threats to mosques to police forces. We will not tire, nor stop in our work at this time. We will continue to monitor, take in, support victims, and challenge anti-Muslim hate. We want to thank you - the British public - for your support, positive messages and hope that you sent us.

As if the #TransPride I couldn’t go to had full sunshine and excellent fits, when, last year, it was bucketing down and I was serving raincoat chic.

As a child bereaved by fatal domestic abuse, headlines calling a man who killed three women a “nice guy” and “normal person” have felt personally traumatic. The media called my father a “gentle man” and “nice chap”, which misrepresented the controlling reality that myself and my family experienced for years. It compounded our trauma. Reporting like this causes so much damage – both to victims’ families, and to public understandings of coercive control. It has to stop. Now. We need every single newsroom trained in how to report domestic abuse deaths, and to lobby the regulator for stronger rules. The press has the power to prevent further deaths and save women’s lives. Please support this crowdfunder I’ve started to support @we_level_up’s crucial work to train journalists in their Dignity For Dead Women guidelines. This takes all of us ➡️ gofundme.com/f/levelup-media

Rishi Sunak has offered his resignation to The King but Keir Starmer has yet to be appointed as Prime Minister, so who's in charge? Me.

As you mark your ballot today, spare a thought for the disabled people still denied the right to vote in secret because voting is so inaccessible

@jamesrbuk Yessss, love a counter-counter-protest. These were (some of) our signs last year.

I've been on @alphacourse 4 the last 10 weeks or so. Just 3 sessions to go. So I've spent a fair bit of time in those weeks listening2 @nickygumbel in the videos, gushing about how God loves everyone, how we should love everyone. Simultaneously, not surprised 2C his name on this.

We have a wildly unhealthy relationship to gambling in this country, not just in politics. We’ve made kids wear gambling sponsors on football kits before they’re old enough to understand. (1/2)

You need to show an accepted form of photo ID to vote in person in the general election. Don’t have ID?🤔 Apply for free voter ID. 📅 The deadline to apply is 5pm this Wednesday (26 June) if you live in England, Scotland or Wales and by midnight if you live in Northern Ireland.

I need someone who can match my freak (do the NYT connections before me so they can give me hints)

@mistresstailor Stunning!! 😍

My ss24 Maison Margiela inspired 1840s dress is (mostly) finished! I just need to put in some closures and rigging to keep the skirt and bodice together

As the daughter of a father, and the sister of two brothers, I wish our @England team the best of luck in tonight’s men’s #Euros! You’re showing little boys everywhere that there’s nothing they can’t do 💛⭐️

Have thankfully never exp’d this myself but this has me thinking of the extra barriers to victims of domestic abuse who specifically need to NOT take their partner/perpetrator into the consulting room.

It hasn’t stopped raining since I finished @JuliaArmfield’s Private Rites yesterday evening and it’s making me nervous.

@tiltwithlips @martha_again @averyelisabeth8 @clairehez3 @JuliaArmfield my wife got agnes after I got stephanie which is cute but also she’s 100% jude so I’m starting to doubt the scientific validity of this test.

Survivors of domestic abuse can register to vote anonymously in the next general election. Here's how: bit.ly/4ebYxRt
