"I'm BOYCOTTING the pitt because of how they treat their woc cast!!!!!!! its a disgusting show!!!!!"
every single woc on the show, from sepideh moafi, to shabana azeez, to isa briones etc have all had nothing negative to say about the show... in fact, they spend their whole time both praising the working environment, talking about how much fun they're having, and about how much they like their costars (wyle included).
I dont know where you've found this supposed mistreatment that youre fighting. it doesn't exist anywhere in the real world. not a single woc actress has said anything that even vaguely alludes to it. they're all happy and enthusiastic. why are you actively hoping for them to suffer because you want something to yell about? weird behaviour.
personally, I'm *delighted* the environment is fun, working conditions are good and inclusive, and that there is *no* mistreatment. unlike people who make this poor treatment up for cheap traction, I actually listen to the woc cast when they speak, and *believe* what they say. its a pity so many don't seem to be able to do that. twisting their words or outright lying about what they say is a horrible thing to do, and is deeply disrespectful to both them, and the other cast and crew. its embarrassing. grow up.
anyway, long live the pitt and long live the happy woc actresses on it.
there's a deep misogyny (internalized or not) in a lot of these people who want these women to 'suffer' to feel justified in their statements that the production and executive producers are 'toxic' with no proof and just outlandish claims. it's very disturbing behaviour. considering there's been no negative feedback reported from anyone and a lot of the cast and crew are happily returning, i'd hazard a guess it's one of the healthiest and most productive shows/sets currently with a union who'll protect them. but hey what do i know...
do the people throwing a fit about javadi being in psych and not ER in season three not understand that this is actually the writers going *out of their way* to keep her IN the show because they value her as a character?
she is a med student. rotations do not last more than a few weeks tops, so as much as you mightve liked her to still be in the ER full time, this isn't realistic at all four months after season 2. anyone with basic knowledge of the american medical school system would be aware she wouldn't still be there in real life, and the show tries to keep to realism as much as it can.
she would not still be in the ER as a med student. it would've been SO much easier for the writers to say "oh, javadi is on another rotation right now, she's not in s3 but will be back in s4 after graduation", and it also would've made sense to not see her. that's how it is.
INSTEAD, the writers went out of their way to write her with a storyline that will bring her back to the ER and still give her a role since they know how loved she is and like writing her. now, we'll get to know MORE about who javadi is and her passion for psych, AND we'll get a heavier presence of psych in the show as a whole because of it, which is a great thing too!
there is nothing logical to complain about here. the writers have made a decision to advance the storyline of, and keep in the main cast, a character and actress that we all like. be happy about that, narratively they could so easily not have done- insulting and attacking people who are trying to give you this interesting storyline for her rather than writing her off as would make sense for s3 is *insane*.
some of you need to learn how to take a step back and look at the bigger picture, and also need to learn how to enjoy things and not look for a betrayal everywhere you look. let's have some critical thinking, please.
Transphobia is about to be signed into law in the UK. We can fight this.
I am begging the UK trans community and its allies to attend the Mass Lobby at Parliament on June 25th, 11am-4pm, organised by Trans Solidarity Alliance.
Last year we broke the record for an LGBT+ mass lobby of Parliament. Will you help us break it again? Join us on 25th June 2026 to demand be
The new EHRC Code of Practice pushes trans people out of toilets, hospital wards, and community spaces. It normalises gender policing based on appearance and stereotypes. It becomes statutory guidance in the UK by the end of June.
Trans people are now legally their assigned gender at birth and must join gendered spaces accordingly, but if they are perceived as their lived gender, they can also be ejected from those spaces. The guidance says: either break the law, or don’t pass too well.
A mass lobby is where you invite your MP to discuss your concerns with you in-person. Ask your MP to:
Demand full parliamentary scrutiny, debate, and use their free vote on the EHRC Code of Practice.
Support any motions rejecting the EHRC guidance. As of June 4th, Labour MP Nadia Whittome has submitted a prayer motion - Early Day Motion 240.
Write to Bridget Phillipson, the Minister for Women and Equalities about our concerns
Your MP does not have to be an ally, they do not have to respond to your email for you to show up and greencard them (details below the cut.) What matters is that as many people as possible show up.
I cannot stress this enough: Showing up in person matters. It is much more effective than petitions, emails, and letters.
It is a horrible, stressful time, and I am so sorry if you're trans and live in the UK. But I was at last year's mass lobby and the line for greencarding alone stretched around the back gates. It was a record breaking mass lobby and made us impossible to ignore. Let's do even better this time. Details under the cut:
Worried about what to say?
Bring your personal worries about transphobia being signed into law, and trans friends being excluded from public spaces. You are a living person who deserves dignity. Remind your MP of that. You will also get guidance and brochures from Trans Solidarity Alliance that outlines our demands. This is mine from last year.
Money issues?
Trans Solidarity Alliance provides a travel bursary that you can sign up for via the link.
Got a refusal or no response from your MP?
Come anyway! You can request a same-day appointment with your MP through a process called greencarding. They will come and see you if they’re already in Parliament. Even if they don’t, they’re made acutely aware of your cause because you showed up in person. This is my greencard from last year.
Here is the EHRC Code of Practice in full. It's a tough read, but some highlights are:
Organisations can’t provide trans-inclusive, single-sex services, or they risk being sued for discrimination.
e.g. domestic violence support for women including trans women, men’s rugby group including trans men (12.68).
Trans people will have nowhere safe to pee.
If you’re a trans man, businesses can't allow you to pee in the men's, and you can also be ejected from women’s bathrooms if you’re perceived as a man. Vice versa for trans women. EHRC suggests a ‘third space’ bathroom, which is discriminatory and unworkable for most businesses. (13.130-133)
Sports organisations must exclude trans people from single-sex competitions (13.73).
A women’s only sports competition must exclude trans women because of their biological advantage or face potential lawsuits (13.74), but a trans man who has undergone testosterone treatment can also be excluded based on fairness rules (13.81).
Trans women are stripped of the legal definition of ‘lesbian’, and therefore no longer have legal protections if they’re discriminated against on the basis of sexual orientation. (2.50, 2.92).
Here is the Good Law Project's better explanation of the EHRC Code.
I have also made a PDF printout of QR codes for the government petition, email your MP tool, and mass lobby link to pass around your communities. DM me and I'll send it to you.
It's also important for us cis allies to show up and support our trans community members, so think about joining this if you're able no matter your gender identity.
I'm not going to be able to go, but I do have some experience with lobbying my various MPs over the years, so here's some quick advice off the top of my head:
If you're resident in the UK but not a citizen you still have the right to go to Parliament and be seen by your MP.
If you don't know who your MP is you can look it up by putting your postcode into the Find My MP page on Parliament's website (pro tip if you are a uni student, check your MP for both your family home and your uni, one may be a better option for lobbying than the other, you may even be able to Green Card both of them, but I don't know if that's possible, ask on the desk when you ask for the card).
And everyone needs to remember that while officially you're not required to show photo ID to get into Parliament the official guidance from the House of Commons is "you don't need photo ID to get in but we suggest you bring it anyway" (which is just unhelpful)
You will also be required to pass through airport style security which obviously may be a stressful experience for some of the people taking part in the mass lobby. That can take anywhere up to half an hour, the staff are usually pretty nice, but the entry into the security check is a sloped metal ramp with zero shade and nowhere to lean or sit so plan accordingly.
If your MP is not in the building to come and meet you they are required to respond to your Green Card as soon as possible via the contact details you put on your Green Card. While meeting them in person is the ideal you will get a response so it will be worth it even if your MP is unavailable.
Have a safe, productive lobby! Proud of all of you who can go and support the cause.
Yes! This is also a good point! MPs are traditionally expected to spend their Fridays in their constituency and to hold regular opportunities for you to meet with them to discuss issues. This is called a constituency surgery. If you are unable to make it to London you can look up when your MP is holding their next surgery and make an appointment to see them in your home town to discuss it there. Maybe even reach out to local pride groups in your area and do a local mass lobby of your MP in order to show them this is an issue that matters in your area too.
Hate to be that weirdo but if you follow me or like my posts AND your blog is empty when I get there I'm gonna assume you're a bot. And probably block you. As might other people.
Reblog stuff!! This is the reblogging website - we invented it! It doesn't even have to be my stuff - it can be whatever you like! An empty blog is just weird sorry
