i know you won't do this without a script so here's a couple of suggestions to include in your email:

Dear [Name],

I'm writing to you about the recent Supreme Court Ruling which declares that trans women do not meet the legal definition of woman, and that "woman" is legally a "biological woman", but which does not explain what "biological woman" entails.

As a [cis woman, this ruling leaves me less safe, emboldens violent bigots to potentially assault me because of physical features which do not meet their definition of womanhood, and places my transgender friends/family at even higher risk]/ [cis man, this ruling leaves my female friends both cis and trans less safe than they were previously]/ [trans person, this now leaves me at risk of assault every time I attempt to partake in normal public life such as shopping, eating in a restaurant, or going to work].

It is not based in science, and it is noteworthy to me that no transgender people were allowed to give evidence in support of their own legal identities. It aligns the UK not with the forerunners in human rights but with regressive regimes which our Governments, past and present, have rightfully denounced.

I am writing to you today to say that this ruling is politically motivated, prejudiced, and liable to fall in the European Court of Human Rights where it is almost certainly to be taken next, and to ask you to consider refusing to support any further attempts to exclude trans women from public life and basic human rights.

Regards

There are a limited number of discounts available, first-come first-serve, with spots reserved for trans folks and people of color. Shipping discounts are also provided, if needed - just ask. ♡

I wrote most of these poems in a feverish haze of obsession. I have poured my heart and soul into these pages to bring you this collection. Every piece of this collection has my heart stitched inside it. I cannot wait to share it with you.

I feel like ppl get bogged down in semantics so let me make it real simple for you. A zionist is someone who supports the state of Israel. Zionism is the belief that a Jewish ethnostate called Israel should be developed in the Levant region (Palestine and Lebanon and Syria) regardless of the existence of Palestine, Syria and Lebanon and their people. When any pro-Palestine person says someone is a Zionist, that's not a synonym for Jewish, nor is another word for "person I don't like". When we call someone a zionist it's because they support the existence of Israel as a colony. And just so we're clear: it does not matter if a zionist says they're sad about Palestinian suffering or they want to "live in peace" with Palestinians because as long as they support the existence of a colonial ethnostate called Israel then they're still doing Zionism. If I came to your house and just started living there and tried to starve you out and torture you so you would leave your house, it wouldn't matter that I felt "sorry" for you because I'm the reason you're suffering at all. That's why when you try and say "well, Neil Druckman says he wants the war to stop" that doesn't matter. He's still a zionist. He still wants Israel to exist as a colonial state which will always be at the expense of Palestinians. Do not fall for liberal Zionists. Get it in your fucking head that there's no "progressive" Zionism because there's no "progressive" way to support a state that necessitates the elimination of whole peoples.

i know this is old news but its not because the genocide of palestinians is old news and current news. today, april 2025, israel ordered the evacuation of the partially-functioning al ahli baptist hospital and bombed it, the same hospital that it bombed in october 2023 and killed nearly 500 people and then denied it, smeared everyone who would "dare to accuse israel of bombing a hospital," released false voice notes with fake actors pretending it was hamas operatives who accidentally bombed it so that news outlets could no longer report on israel bombing hospitals without having to add "hamas-run health ministry says..." to provide doubt on accounts of palestinian suffering, and then eventually just bombed every single hospital in gaza anyway

right now they're still bombing the hospital, but they did order the evacuation first. the thing about ordering a hospital to be evacuated before bombing it is that it proves you are destroying hospitals for the sake of destroying hospitals. the other thing about ordering a hospital to be evacuated is that it still kills all the critical patients and all the patients who need it anyway in an area where a hundred people are being killed daily. already a child has reportedly died while being evacuated.

that's kind of the point of targeting hospitals. its the point of targeting so many and so frequently that you can keep palestinians suspended in a state of genocide, while everyone else who reads about is suspended in a state of helplessness and confusion. they bombed a hospital? didn't they already bomb that hospital? was it really them who bombed it? i didn't know those people were still alive and those hospitals were still functioning. patients died wheeled out in a hospital bed while the ER was lit on fire? ah, didn't that already happen before?
