Also? Our girl Galaxy is the *first* trans superhero from DC or Marvel to be a title character and currently the *only* trans superhero to be the title character of a series.

Beautiful song written and performed by the mum of a trans kid about how much she adores her kid and her experiences of being the mam of a trans kid in the world as it is now.

All proceeds going to the amazing BelongTo youth service.

Thank you Sunday Independent for publishing our letter today

There is nobody on earth more expert than a parent who is worried about their child so we would be delighted to chat with anyone who has questions about how to support their child and keep them safe, loved and well.

Love always wins ❀️

I gather that Enoch Burke's sister and mammy are in the shit with the Irish judiciary. They could both join Enoch on the inside for Contempt.

SUPER ACTIVISM THURSDAY - two heroes today

Hard to explain the combined power of these two goddess warriors being in the same place at the same time talking about their human rights activism but a lot of people (myself included) will never be the same.

Eileen Gu waves and smiles. A quote reads: "I'm the most decorated female freeskier in history. I think that's an answer in and of itself." Attribution reads: Eileen Gu to a reporter who asked if she saw her Olympic medals as two silvers gained or two golds lost

From @theathletic.com: A reporter asked Eileen Gu if she saw her two medals at the 2026 Olympics as two silvers gained or two golds lost.Β Gu laughed, saying, "The β€˜two medals lost’ situation, to be quite frank with you, is a ridiculous perspective to take." nyti.ms/4rlMlDP

Apart from everything else about this - its a stupid thing to patent. Theres nothing technical novel about this, and its not a new idea for an application either. It would never be enforceable.

That black mirror episode would be enough to overturn it. Famously the patent for geostationary communication satellites was overturned because scifi had described it 15 years earlier.

That this will do nothing really highlights the invidious, and incoherent, state of immigration discourse in the UK. Were the numbers the other way round, it'd be a damning indictment of integration and proof that foreigners leech off the system. Now it'll just be "British workers left behind!!".
