Update from The House of Plague, Day 93

I am conscious of taking up a lot of space on everyone's flist every night, so tonight I'm just cutting everything.



First of all if you want to keep the pressure on re. trans rights, go here to email the PM directly (you only have to fill in your own details, everything else is done for you). Template can obviously be used if you want to email your MP also. (If you want to call your MP, thread here with detailed instructions.)

All this because:



And speaking of trans ppl, here's a lovely article:

Speaking of kids, here's Little Miss Flint:

In other news, Marcus Rashford is a legend:

Have a petition about food standards. (Plz let's not have chlorinated chicken...)

We will, we will...block you? What rhymes with social distancing?*shrugs*

How about this:

Answering machine greeting: We will, we will...call you back!*FRIENDS*

Slightly getting off track, but it's still QUEEN related.

Okay.*relieved*

Even before social distancing, personal boundaries is something that I've held as sacred. When you can feel someone right behind you or even their breath on the back of your neck (the latter happened to me once on a bus), there is a line that's being crossed.

I'll just be extra vigilant.*sighs*

Maybe protection/safety shields. Like the one's installed in supermarkets.
