    Transphobic men are so perverted they can’t even see a picture of the northern lights without thinking about women’s change rooms.

    I can’t even post about ravioli without someone trying to make it about trans people. For the record, I will not stop being a lesbian or playing sports with other women.

    So JK Rowling has had hundreds of threats sent to her because she's transphobic? Well, I've had thousands of threats sent to me because of JK Rowling. Two wrongs don't make a right, but let's not forget who started this fight, Jo, and let's not forget who has the bigger hammer.

    It’s more than a little hypocritical to call people “penised,” when you gained notoriety from taking offense to someone writing “people who menstruate.” I wonder if she refers to herself as “vaginad.”

    You can officially no longer state facts on X. What a world we live in 🤦🏼‍♀️

    If you just started following me because JK Rowling threatened to sue me - get this… One of her stans, who walks around town wearing an “I ❤️JK Rowling” sandwich board, crashed two of my events, then showed up at my home, and doxxed me when I didn’t answer my door.

    Trans people don’t deny biology. Biology is what makes trans people trans. Assigning sex at birth is not based on the vast nuances of biology, it’s based purely on the observation of genitals, and that observation does not always lead to a correct determination of gender.

    With that said, I stand behind the intent of the tweet, which is to highlight the dangerous nature of transphobia. Children are particularly vulnerable and must be accepted for who they are, not told that who they are is wrong. With great power comes great responsibility.

    At the request of @jk_rowling and on the advice of my lawyers, I have deleted my original tweet. The tweet, when read on its own, lacked clarity and, right or wrong, wealth is powerful.

    "The pay gap doesn't exist" "Trans people don't make less than cis people" Oh, really?

    If you feel that the transphobia you’ve put into the world is not dangerous to children you are more than welcome to have your lawyer send me a cease & desist letter. I’m sure the media would love to write articles about how you attack l trans folks and then try to silence them.

    This is fantastic satire! It looks like Rowling’s response to my tweet. I can see her DMing her threats in the future since threatening a trans person (me) with legal action removed any doubt that she’s transphobic and showed that she hates free speech. tricitynews.com/news/j-k-rowli…

    A soccer teammate of mine, who’s a nurse, showed up at practice with hot chocolate for everyone, because that’s how she’s processing her grief. Turns out she witnessed multiple kids dying today due to hospital delays. She says they were completely preventable deaths.

    As a millennial, it’s difficult to comprehend how many gen z folks are able to freely express gender identity & sexual orientation in school. It’s fantastic, just difficult to comprehend. We had one out trans person in my high school (that I know of) and kids were merciless.
