This is horrific. The UAE need to drop the charges immediately and our government needs to bring Tori home immediately. Tori was brutally beaten by her boyfriend who then preemptively opened a case against her. She has been charged with alcohol consumption and attempted sui. She has a travel ban.

Irish domestic violence victim detained in Dubai on charges of attempted suicidedetained-in-dubai.prowly.com A 28 year old Emirates Airlines cabin crew employee became the victim of brutal domestic violence leading to an attempt to take her own life. Rather than helping her go home to Ireland with her mother...

At least the DFA are involved now

Taoiseach to intervene for Irish woman charged in Dubaiwww.rte.ie The Taoiseach has told the Dáil that he is ready to "intervene" in the case of an Irish woman who is facing criminal charges in Dubai in what he called "the most appalling circumstances".

Pronouns labeler is live! @pronouns.adorable.mom I realize this is missing a lot of pronouns, especially neo-pronouns, but it felt too overwhelming to do this on my own my DMs are open for requests (this time it actually works because i didn't take down ozone just before launching :D)

I refer readers back to my statement some weeks ago on courtier panic and disorientation as a long-entrenched power system is displaced and its assiduous adherents thrash about trying to maintain their positions.

By popular demand this is a) now open to booksellers, book bloggers and agents too and b) has a Google doc to collect signatures so please leave your name and the capacity in which you’re signing here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

For those of you who are aware of the TillyLovesBooks situation, I’ve written an open letter to Waterstones in support of her from authors. If anyone would like to sign it, please let me know by tomorrow morning.

I wish the transphobes would understand one thing: I am doing this on purpose. I am doing this to harm you. I am doing this to destroy your way of life and everything you hold dear. Your children will be transsexuals. We will bury you.

Years ago my brother lived in a basement flat in Leinster Square that had a resident slug that would come through from the kitchen at night no matter what he tried, also next door was a depressed clown but at least he didn't try coming through the flat at night. I stayed there once and never again

Heartbroken to have to ask this but is there any reason why an American couple bringing a trans child through UK border control need to worry/make legal provisions this month? A dear friend of mine is worried about getting her daughter taken away when she visits in a couple of weeks' time 😢

Email these mfs if you've got the time. I've just done so and asked them why they're so fucking ignorant despite selling books

I'm intrigued as to what policy dictates what you do on a private social media account, but doesn't seem to cover staff who've been retweeting transphobic content on company accounts?

"Women won't wheesht", but it's different when they get fired from Waterstones because a transphobe complained about them, this is fecking disgraceful (sorry for the Twitter link, but it's a video instead of a thread) Never heard of the author, CV Dalcher, but find I'm already blocked by her
