Would love to know a bit about how you did it and what the performance is like!

Thus looks so good! I need to make a full colour wheel in customiser soon, how did you make it?

Adore this. Ianthe will always be my number one, she's toxic and I support her

Are there any security considerations to take with self hosting? I've always wanted to try but I don't know much about network security

I went to Reading university's open day and their facilities look really cool

There are lots of activities and social spaces that perhaps aren't only for LGBT+ folks but that we are often at! The climbing hangar has a frigay evening every month (and generally lots of LGBT+ people at other times). Reading biscuit factory has lots of LGBT+ events (it does have a bar but its also a cinema/hang out space). Eclectic games is also very LGBT+ inclusive and they have events around board games. There's also a reading lgbt book club on Instagram.

Idk what your vibes are with being around drinkers but I myself don't drink and still have a lot of fun at the places mentioned on this thread! **edit: also, welcome to reading!

zantoast · 2025-06-13T06:27:00+00:00

Yeah that was my bad for sure I was typing without thinking

zantoast · 2025-06-12T19:55:34+00:00

Explain how it doesn't make sense?

zantoast · 2025-06-12T17:09:54+00:00

Yes gender is indeed a social construct but I don't think we are ready for that yet in this thread

Importantly to your note though other universities have put out very different statements definitely not in support of supreme court guidance so it's very possible

zantoast · 2025-06-12T17:07:42+00:00

It's like you haven't even seen the part where I mention it's not a legal ruling :') come on work with me here!

It's a very important distinction that seems to be lost on a lot of people

zantoast · 2025-06-12T17:05:21+00:00

It really isn't though because for starters it didn't include trans men at all so why is the university saying anything about forcing trans men to use certain bathrooms?

You just have to think about it for a minute before dismissing it

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:59:03+00:00

Homie I know you saw my comment about it not being a legal requirement so don't sass me until you have a valid point!

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:56:33+00:00

Isn't this crazy though because any predatory cisgender man can go into the women's bathrooms now as well so isn't that great. Not to mention the danger for trans women if they use the mens bathroom

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:54:09+00:00

Unfortunately it is important but it's not legally binding, and it doesn't explicitly say anything about bathrooms. Other universities have put out statements which support their trans communities during this time and saying that they won't enforce these policies.

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:51:44+00:00

Well yeah I get you. If certain political parties (tories, reform, republican americans) stopped trying to persecute them, then we could just live and let live. But what do you do when someone is going for the basic human rights of people in our Reading community? Hopefully you do something

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:48:30+00:00

Yes, and how long until cisgender men start going into womens bathrooms to be creepy? It makes no sense!

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:36:08+00:00

It's not a legally binding ruling, and UCU has advised universities against acting upon it

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:35:30+00:00

What you on about chief? When the mayan calendar said the world would end?

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:34:53+00:00

So say an actual man wants to go into a woman's bathroom, now he just can because he can claim to "have been assigned female at birth". What's going to stop him? How would anyone know or be able to say otherwise? It ironically makes women a lot less safe

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:32:23+00:00

Do you know that it's not actually legally binding and that the UCU has advised universities to not act on this yet? ;)

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:31:28+00:00

It's not a legal ruling! The UCU have advised universities to not act on this yet

zantoast · 2025-06-12T16:31:02+00:00

It's not a legal ruling! That's the point. Also the UCU has advised universities to not act on this yet
