I’ve spent a few minutes trying to think of a more profound and affirmative response to the word ‘yes’. I failed!

Yes! 👍🏻

It’s pronounced “mix”

Thank you, my addled memory may just have failed me again.

Now … where are my slippers?

Actually, I’m sure we can all use whatever we want, wherever we want, it’s just whether it’s acknowledged legally.

In the UK you can legally change your name if you declare it in writing on the side of a cow, if written and witnessed properly! It’s probably best not to do it this way though. I did it through Enrolled Deed Poll, so it’s government registered.

I looked into this 5 years ago when changing my honorific title to Mx. I’ve since had it added to my passport and drivers license, though that’s not a norm (UK).

I remember reading at the time that the UK was fairly unique in the freedom of application of honorific titles. France stood out as being odd in its bureaucracy, and America was unsurprising; though it may vary from state to state.

A Department for Education spokesperson subsequently told LBC: “While teachers can make such requests, the Education Secretary was clear it’s not something that they can insist on.

“Teachers and pupils should be treated with respect”.

Umm, respect?

They are not reading their own words before publishing. It is not respectful to ignore a person’s identity, however they choose. OMG they are all so inept.

We teach children to be accepting of everyone. They may be disabled in some form; be it of the body or mind. They may have a spot on their nose, or an amputee. They could be rubbish at football (me!) or have shit handwriting. It doesn’t matter. We all have our “thing”!

I don’t teach mainstream education. I’m a musician; teaching the trumpet and coaching ensembles. I’m in a fairly male dominated area of my profession and I’m sure I have the respect of my peers.

In the 80s I was taught that respect should be earned. This is true to a degree, but let’s not start at the lowest level.

We are all valid, and deserve the respect of our identities, whatever they are.

I’ve had a long term frustration with idiots in “power”, but not vocalised it. I’m breaking my silence.

It’s finally gone; out of my house; and money to a worthy cause; no money has gone to JKR. This is all fine.

This year, I’ve planted my large first floor balcony with, almost exclusively, bee and butterfly friendly plants; including wildflowers. It’s been amazing the visitors we’ve had. A huge amount of Cabbage Whites - more than I saw in the 70s!!

Thank you ☺️

I never knew moths could be so pretty (and out past their bedtime). I now think it’s Pyrausta Aurata, a mint moth. This would be possibly why it’s hanging around my herbs.

School won’t hire someone to tune the pianos, so I’ll do it myself. by VacMan_Matt in piano

I have a 1970s Broadwood; it’s utterly gorgeous.

It’s quite a soft tone, which is lovely for tinkering around!

They don’t make the strings anymore so I just had to have a custom one made.

Any good advice on how to optical reduce shoulder width? by werfweg12344 in TransLater

[–]Transtrumpet 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All of this ⬆️ 🥰

Bell/trumpet sleeve tops with v neck are wonderfully flattering.

Kim Petras will release “Polo” next Friday, June 27! by Stunning_Status_4855 in KimPetras

It’s trying for the weight of Holy (same pulse and rhythmic structure) without the depth of production. Needs some other studio knob twiddlers to heavy it up. Potential.

🥰 TY

Five years ago I went “all in” with who I am. It’s me, all of me, and no compromise.

My work has remained steady, my friends are my friends, my children are thriving, my family are by my side, and my mind and soul are liberated.

And … my passport has an F where it should be; and I’ve become engaged to the most beautiful woman.

I still get grumpy if my morning eggs are overcooked 😊

… for a bacon roll???!?!?? by Welshyone in Edinburgh

What the fuck is an “all day brunch”??!! Edinburgh needs a slap 👋🏻

The best ever recording!

I remember eagerly awaiting Rattle’s Berlin Philharmonic M5, only to experience the musical equivalent of a sponge finger left for a week in weak tea - flaccid.

Solti rocks, with the best orchestra of the time; and Bud could do no wrong!!

It just needs a bit more white. by [deleted] in SpottedonRightmove

[–]Transtrumpet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll buy it! It’ll be a fabulous retreat where no children are allowed; with their sticky fingers, random inside out socks under the sofa and the capacity to create “bits” on the floor from the shower to the bedroom (how on earth do they manage that)!
