RECORDED LIVE on Tuesday 28th 9am - Calling for people to support Trans Youth in Queensland. Sev talks about the breaking events happening at the Supreme Court in Brisbane where Judge Peter Callaghan was to render a verdict over the legal challenge against the government freeze on youth access to puberty blockers and hormones. Since then a ruling was made in favour of the Family at the Supreme Court and was reinstated by ministerial directive by Queensland Health Minister Tim Nicholls the same day. Follow our socials for more information about future rallies. Sev and Ezarco also talk upcoming events including MELT: Zed and Queer Broadcasting celebrating 50 years of queer broadcasting and looking to the future as well as several trans friendly halloween events to look into (including everything Gay Skate). Sign the petition from the Trans Justice Project calling Health Minster Tim Nicholls to instate access to gender affirming care now: https://transjustice.org.au/review/

Boy Grows Out Of Girlhood by C.S. Potter

I grow out of girlhood like an animal trying to chow off its own leg, something feral burns in my chest and I learn to love the way that smoke feels in my mouth, I’m not fond of fear but it’s starting to feel like home.

The end of the world starts under your skin like fingers pressing against your pulse, boyhood meant skinning my knees, picking fights and figuring that I could say the words that got stuck in my throat when they called me girl, boyhood meat godhood and I’m feeling holy
