This case is making me so fucking angry. theyre using common transphobic language, and also theyre not even HIDING their BLATANT FUCKING TRANSPHOBIA-

Wanna see the poster that made me aware of this current bullshit going on?

The second paragraph. 'Roxy Tickle is a man that wants to be a woman.' Okay, well a simple google search says shes transgender. Going a bit more in depth? She has done Three years of hormone therapy and gender reaffirmation surgery. Like this isnt a transgender woman who has done nothing to change her identity, she's got surgery and 3 years of hormone therapy! And looking more into it? She has said;

"I am now legally a woman.

“I am already allowed to have a female gendered passport thanks to the letter from my GP confirming that they are treating me.

“I only have one step left - to update my birth certificate to say that I’m female.

“I needed two medical specialists saying they have seen my genitals and they both needed to sign a form in the presence of a JP.

"These are the most extreme levels of identity proof I’ve ever come across – to have to show your genitals to an MD is embarrassing to prove who you are. The documentation has all now been completed and I will mail it this weekend."

That was all 4 years ago. 7 years of this shit now. (as of today, april 11th, 2024)

And the poster still refers to her as a he?

And thats the picture they use. Now heres a better one.

That was deliberate. They used an unflattering photo of her, and a very flattering one of Sall, just to try and tip people to Salls side. Common marketing ploy.

More research shows that she now has her birth certificate identifying her as female.

And this isnt enough?

By her logic, shouldnt a trans man be allowed on giggle, no matter how far through transitioning they are, purely because they were born female? I get the feeling that she would say no. This is simply blatant transphobia. Personally, I cant do anything, being a minor. I'm not sure how far this case is along, seeing as it started 2 days ago.

But I simply cant let this slide. When I saw it this afternoon it made me so fucking angry.

This case could change a lot of things. Make a lot of changes that make everything far worse for non cis gendered people, potentially influencing things world wide

Barbecues this. Tim tams that. Come on guys, be honest, Australian culture is complaining about the government but refusing any systemic change

Current politics moodboard cause my parents are trying to tell me, an adult who’s voted before (especially against their parties), how to vote. They caught on I would vote yes for indigenous voices lmao.

For non-Aussies there’s been a campaign to allow more aboriginal voices in parliament and my parents HATE it. I honestly couldn’t give a damn.

“They will force us to pay to use parks and change the names of places!” Then move to America. You love to hype america for their guns and trump so move uwu. I’m not telling them who I will vote for cause it’s none of their business and I’ve been told off about my political view before so no point talking to them about it. Suck it.

Also fun fact, last time I voted in our local election I put the legalise weed as my first party. That year that party had a HUGE increase in voters. I’m still smiling to this day and I don’t even smoke. Just want people to be able to smoke safely and have easier medical access.

Also cat cause I think everyone should have this in their photos. Look at him.

Extraordinary second Peter Dutton tears strips off Albo over change to October 7 bloodbath movement - after he had a face-to-face assembly with PM Information Buzz

Opposition Chief Peter Dutton has slammed Anthony Albanese for ‘attempting to talk out of either side of his mouth’ within the wording of an October 7 bloodbath condolence movement.  The Prime Minister opened Parliament on Tuesday by introducing a movement to sentence Hamas’ October 7 assault on Israel, paying tribute to ‘each single harmless life’ within the violence. ‘Our authorities has…

For context the state of Victoria just passed a tax against AirBNB owners and other investment properties that don't have renters in it. The country has a huge housing and rental crisis atm but naturally the land lord pig's don't care and are bitching about it.

"You wouldn't open an AirBnB in a housing crisis"

If you can, reblog.

Australia’s newest climate report has shown how bad the climate crisis has gotten. The information is both horrifying and not new.

We knew this would happen. They knew this would happen. There is no longer an excuse.

Australia’s climate has warmed by an average of 1.51 +_ 0.23 Celsius, its oceans have warmed by 1.08 Celsius since 1990.

There is less rain, less water flow, sea levels are rising and the risk of catastrophic fires grows every day.

If you have the means to change: change.

If you don’t: inspire others to.

I'm sorry to detract from the main focus of the mangled corpse there, but what the fuck is going on with the leg(s) and feet of the kid in the foreground?

So today the Lord Mayor of Melbourne made the ill judged decision to use AI to generate some artists impressions of the new parks he plans to build

Downside being he didn't notice the dead body the AI decided to chuck in there

Just another day in Australian politics

Hey Aussies, do you want your real name and ID slapped on your tumblr account? If the answer is fuck no, our gov’s got a upcoming legislation for banning 16 year olds and under from social media even WITH parental consent. And by “Social Media”…

The code defines social media as electronic services that meet the following conditions:

The sole or primary purpose of the service is to enable online social interaction between two or more end users

The service allows end users to link to, or interact with, some or all other end users

The service allows end users to post material on the service

Such other conditions (if any) as are set out in the legislative rules.

So. You know. Just the entire fucking internet. They even named youtube as banned, god forbid kids out in the bush get access to LGBTQ+ communities online when they could be watching adds for sportsbet.

I am 100 per cent supportive of eliminating bullying and fake information from online platforms. The easiest way to do that is to be able to utilise existing laws, and the easiest way to do that is to ensure there are no fake accounts. Your digital, online life is your real life. If you want to make comments, that's fine, but it should be as you, as a verified account. This means everyone knows who it is that makes those comments, that you can be found and prosecuted under existing laws, just as you would if you express those opinions in a newspaper, for example, or you went on to a television station and said something similar.

Contact an Aussie senator about this shit. They’re trying to slide it under all the USpol news.
