UK nonbinary legal recognition court case
Help support the court case by reblogging this post and/or contributing to the crowdfund!
Ryan Castellucci, who is nonbinary, has issued legal proceedings against the Gender Recognition Panel (GRP) and the Secretary of State for Justice arguing that the GRP breached its statutory duty to issue a Gender Recognition Certificate (GRC) in terms which record Ryan’s acquired gender as nonbinary, and has instead decided to issue a GRC of uncertain legal effect. Ryan is also seeking a declaration that a GRC which records Ryan’s gender as “not specified” would mean that their gender is for all purposes nonbinary.
It turns out that the Gender Recognition Act in the UK doesn't actually specify that you have to be moving from male to female or from female to male, which means there is absolutely already room within the law to allow for nonbinary genders, and obviously the government should accommodate that.

The 2023 Gender Census is now open!
[ Link to survey ]
The 10th annual international gender census, collecting information about the language we use to refer to ourselves and each other, is now open until 9th May 2023.
It’s short and easy, about 5 minutes probably.
After the survey is closed I’ll process the results and publish a spreadsheet of the data and a report summarising the main findings. Then anyone can use them for academic or business purposes, self-advocacy, tracking the popularity of language over time, and just feeling like we’re part of a huge and diverse community.
If you think you might have friends and followers who’d be interested, please do reblog this blog post, and share the survey URL by email or at AFK social groups or on other social networks. Every share is extremely helpful - it’s what helped us get 40,000 responses last year.
Survey URL: https://survey.gendercensus.com
The survey is open to anyone anywhere who speaks English and feels that the gender binary doesn’t fully describe their experience of themselves and their gender(s) or lack thereof.
Thank you so much!

There's nowhere to watch the new RWBY that you don't have to pay for, right? Fuck me, I guess.
would much like to point out that the people publishing these articles are trying to needle millennials into treating gen z with the same disgusting vitriol we were treated with.
don’t buy it.
our younger brothers and sisters might eat a tide pod and get us blamed for it, but we have more in common with them than we ever had with boomers or gen x.
they are terrified of the things we can do together. remember that.

Can you believe that there are people who live so close to the ocean that they can just think “hey, I should go to the ocean” and then they just do???
For those who can’t go to the ocean….
…I can bring an ocean to you.
thank you

My neurodivergent fellowship, I often experience my brain as different from my mind. My mind is "me" and my brain is simply another organ that acts in ways I don't understand or comprehend.
Do you have this experience as well? I'm sorry if this is too broad of a definition, but I hope you get the idea.
My favorite part of Guanyin Temple is still the part when JGY is trying to get under WWX’s skin and he’s like “Ooh, does it sting that Jiang Cheng showed up to rescue Jin Ling and not you?” and WWX is just confused and he’s like “Why the hell would Jiang Cheng care about rescuing ME?” and you watch JGY decide that he does NOT understand what’s going on there and he moves on to bothering someone whose neuroses he actually knows
it's funny how it shows that jgy was raised without siblings lol
neil, do you think humanity will ever run out of original stories to tell? that one day there will be no more new books or movies, because every single plot has been wrote or filmed?
I think we ran out of original stories 100,000 years ago telling tales around our fires. But that's okay. We tell the old stories new, and there's always an audience on the way who have never heard them before.
i think this screenshot from our cyber safety training at work has potential as a reaction image
