🕯 Today we pause to remember the trans people whose lives were taken by violence this year. Those lost to hatred, and those lost to the unbearable weight of living in a world that too often refuses to see their worth.

We hold every name and every story in our hearts.

If you head across to Pollux Journal issue 6, you'll find my one and only (so far!) bilingual poem there. So thrilled to be in this issue.

What happens when we are constantly forced to witness the world's pain? @angelaarnold777.bsky.social captures the creeping anxiety in "watching too much news." A deeply resonant piece for our time.

We have deep concerns about government plans to designate Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation.

Nonviolent protest, and even acts of vandalism, should not be labelled as terrorism. Civil disobedience has been a powerful force for positive social change.
