LEAVE UK ! GO Try elsewhere TRAVEL NOW!
(choose wisely a culture but also just aim to go #EU let's say and then move around)
==========================
GET OUT NOW BEFORE NEW #VISA SHIT COMES IN #2025 !
TRY EU & #TRAVELING and say you gave it a shot and come back...
Or #Ireland frankly if not willing to leave completely...
I can help you if you can talk privately...
THE REST IS EXTRA - JUST GET SERIOUS AND LET'S TALK BASIC #OPTIONS BUT JUST GOING BECAUSE WE KNOW #UK IS EXPENSIVE CRAP!
Similar advice for T#rans people goes for others... see video below:
America’s #trans #refugees: Where can I go?
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=WjBqTdjKU7c
"Somewhere a bit more moral and green..."
I admit there isn't too much BUT many countries in EU can help you KILL #TIME AND TRY FIND other# existing places / people...
I wanted to say all that because new #Visa etc stuff is coming and best chance to try a new life is RIGHT NOW...
https://transrescue.org/leaving-the-uk-for-ireland-what-you-need-to-know
and you can even come back to your expensive #hellhole / #rented #shithole and say you tried after and pay less rent meantime by keeping light.
Take a lot of money (not all) and have rest sent you to after...
#Summertime makes it all easier / lighter packing...

(said for #TransRescue #trans #TransRights so slightly different but I believe all of us are in a lot of danger - soft or direct danger)
@lgbtqia
The UK Supreme Court ruled today in favour of For Women Scotland, in a blow for the rights of British trans people.We know many of you will be worried, and thinking about leaving the UK. Like everyone else we are digesting the ruling at the moment, and will deliver our thoughts when we have done so.
@trans_rescue @lgbtqia #ALTTEXT says:
An #AI photorealistic image of a #Catholic cardinal with his back turned to the viewer, passing through #USA #airport #security. He is skipping and waving. He is joyful and bouncy. In the background beyond the security are two #cardinals holding papal vestments ready for him to wear. The TSA staff at the security area are looking surprised.
@trans_rescue I had to look up / double-check what " bursar " means - so if it's different to what you mean below let me know.
bursar = The treasurer at a college or university / financial person / officer charged with receiving and disbursing funds
@trans_rescue @lgbtqia No want for programming side but I'd help with more content or submitting ideas which you could just sift over... art / audio / media etc...
went to my middle schooler's choir recital tonight.
showed up in full goth parent mode, i was like a 00s industrial/EBM kid got a corporate job. my makeup's finally hitting right. i looked amazing
my partner and i were probably the only queer people there. we got stared at like zoo animals and no one sat in our row. like, the entire row. one family group actively left once they saw me. very subtle.
whatever. my kid was thrilled we showed up, so everyone else can...
the best part? the finale was YMCA. yeah.
a 5th grade choir singing a gay anthem about where to find anonymous hookups, while the same parents who'd clutch pearls at two women holding hands were out there clapping and doing the dance like it's sunday service. the same people who'd call us groomers for existing...
the hypocrisy rolled in, did jazz hands, and called it traditional midwestern family values.
goddamn it was hilarious in that, i-laughed-so-i-wouldn't-start-screaming, kind of way.
...i can't wait to move.

There's currently a live petition to call for a review of the Cass report, although it has met the threshold for a government response (CW: Transphobic govt response), if we can achieve 100,000 signatures this petition will be considered for debate in Parliament and can get more publicity.
#Trans people for the way... +More Pictures wanted to represent - SEND MORE!
"Trans people for the way..." because of their diversity, personality and life...
This is what their lives make me say without doubt or thinking twice naturally because:
1☑️ they have above average or even super-human determination, undoubtedly needed for their life struggles
2☑️ they have more skills in communication and navigating interaction with life, undoubtedly needed because of simply existing and being more challenged for being different which is tested more often and more often thwarted.
3☑️ they claim their OWN #identity and find their OWN #authenticity despite being lost in depersonalization and derealization.
( ⬆️ quote taken word-for-word partially fromSecondUniverse @SecondUniverse and this post:
https://autistics.life/@SecondUniverse/114383151411852532 )
And therefore all 3 above
= more a #trained, #experienced, #proven person
That is why I like in any #human with those things trained more...
ESPECIALLY when they believe it for themselves and others...
==================
#Disclaimer / Deeper #Notes:
==================
1💗 Really happy how I said this post super-quick, but if it can be better / if I missed something as usual let me know!
2💗 I'm new-ISH to #trans people, have met and hung out with 1 or 2 so not totally fresh but I think I prefer their #diversity and just self-direction.
Other people next to #Trans people don't seem to know why they even exist or have only #follower mode setting, no other switches or #clever / #deeper #emotions, just #robot #workers for #robot #system. No #direction or out-of-the-financial-treadmill #dreams.
I DON'T HATE 'NORMAL' PEOPLE BUT... THEY BEHAVE BADLY / POORLY...
Didn't want to knock #normal / #mainstream / #conformist people but you can see my profile already that I complained how poor people are in so many departments measurably even without comparing them to anyone! (the speed and communication especially when talking to trans etc people is noticeable / stronger / less doubtful / more accepting of others)
3💗 Even the people I love or my friends over my whole life - VERY poor in many ways, or nice but too limits, too many of those!
This also shows I would be less bias even with the people I do / did like and not just have hate for everyone or to #virtuesignal to support trans in a false way.
"virtue signal" means:
the act of expressing opinions or stances that align with popular moral values, often through social media, with the intent of demonstrating one's good character."

#Trans people for the way... or anyone proven to have better skills and care for #rights / #respect for all life.
❓ 🖼️ ❓I'm also looking for a picture that is the 'epitome' of trans (or just something that really reflects well / symbolises it a bit). Any help appreciated - thanks just 'send them in' here!

In case this is useful to somebody:
Because of corporate collusion with law enforcement dating back to the 80s, all colour printers put tracking information on their printouts, whether you're printing a colour document or not, encoding information that ties printouts back to the specific printer used.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_tracking_dots
In 2018, scholars at TU Dresden created a tool to re-anonymize color-printed documents by obscuring that data:

Transitioning is without doubt the best thing I have ever done for myself. As a young person dealing with psychosis, trauma and autism, claiming my trans identity gave me a way of finding authenticity despite being lost in depersonalization and derealization. I never felt certain of myself during transition, I only achieved certainty by transitioning.
Being trans can be a wonderful healing trajectory for your life to take. To all the politicians saying hollow words about "respecting trans people" today, I want to say that respect starts by recognizing that trans people are who we say we are. When a law denies our truth, you fix the law. #trans #transRights #womensRights

"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁
See My #FreeSchool (Hashtag) for latest examples anytime. Or keep open and refresh from time to time:

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
