Thank you for making this post. I saw it happen and found it very concerning. I didn't feel capable to address it myself so I am very glad someone else has raised the issue. I would like to hope that the vast majority (should be everyone but evidently not with what's happened) of our instance will be in agreeance that transphobia is absolutely not something we want to be associated with here. @[email protected] Please deal with this.

I’m truly sorry you’ve had this experience here. I saw your post and I saw how quickly it got locked. I also saw how you handled the situation in the other thread where they debated with you back and forth. I won’t pretend to be hugely knowledgable regarding the issues that the trans community face and that is on me, I need to educate myself. I just want to add that I think Tom may be on holiday at present and it might be that he isn’t sure how to respond to you. However, that’s not an excuse and I do think that the community should have been locked down at the very least. It’s unfortunate timing that an instance was created, it’s grown extremely quickly in numbers, and the lead admin is not able to give full attention to pressing issues like this. I hope a resolution can be reached soon.
Morning everyone. It has indeed rained! Had a good heavy shower yesterday evening. Today is a day of housework and food shopping now that it’s a bit cooler. Starting the week in a relatively positive mood - hopefully that continues!
I use a small zip pouch like a mini emergency stash. It’s small enough to chuck in my bag and I keep strips or singles that I’ve cut off of strips that are too big to fit in the pouch. Something like this :) Or maybe some kind of small plastic / metal container would give them a bit more protection but still keep them all together within your bag.
I went for a little walk on a stretch of the Oxford Canal in the Cherwell District area today, so I thought I would share a few pictures that I took. It was very peaceful. It makes my day when friendly boaters say hello when passing by.
I don't have a fancy camera or anything but I still like taking some pictures while I'm out. :)
This is my mug. I love it.
I feel this in my core.
Pulled some overgrown heirloom carrots from a neglected corner of my yard, love these cross sections
Woah, that’s really cool to see!
It’s 24/7 on weekends and bank holidays, I’ll take it :)
I love a good bus journey! Thanks to developing permanent double vision after an operation I got my (provisional cos I never learned) driving license revoked. But I qualified for a bus pass which gets me free travel after 9am. Winner.
Maybe consider a sticky post so that everyone knows to go into their profile settings and select BOTH English and Undetermined by holding down Ctrl (command key on Mac)? Or sticky this one and I'll add an update to the bottom.
You can have both! I think you need to hold ctrl or alt or something and select English and Undetermined. I saw it in a post somewhere but I've lost it now. I agree the double negative is very confusing! Glad you've seen this post.
I think there's probably been about 10 flowers in total. It's a shame they don't stay for longer but it's been lovely to see them!

I would if I could. I cringe every time I see my handle at the top of the homepage.
