Gruelling. Horrifying. Devastating.

As a trans person in the UK in 2025 some of these words run altogether too close to home

“Transvestites [transgender people] are the canaries of the world. You know from our own library that bad people always go after transvestites first, no matter the country or culture. They are the first ones removed when an environment turns poisonous”.

The Lilac People

Meep is starting The Manningtree Witches
Currently listening to. Frustrated that ‘stour’ is mispronounced throughout- it’s jarring to my local ears although I’m sure it will go unnoticed to non-locals

‘Stour’ in suffolk/Essex is ‘staw ’ not ‘s(t)our’

Meep is starting Before We Were Trans: A New History of Gender
This book is brilliant. Well-written and with care to not whitewash identities, Kit carefully deconstructs the relationship between gender and sexuality, whilst not ignoring or sidelining either of these identities

Meep is starting Written On The Skin: An Australian Forensic Casebook
Some really interesting bits and then some bits introduced and just left dangling.

There’s also a section where she deadnames a trans woman, calls her he, and a ‘transsexual male’ so beware transphobia (it seems uninformed rather than deliberate, but just like the use of ‘prostitutes’ throughout, it’s exceedingly grating)

This book is lovely. Makes me wish I was a millionaire who just had land I could (re)wild. However it does make me aware of what I could do in my own back garden.
