This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Esther Ghey doesn't deserve the right to invoke her daughter in any context. She is an abomination of a woman.

This would explain *a lot*
Mum clearly thinks social media transed her kid, and if she wasn't trans she wouldnt have been murdered in cold blood, so social media is to blame.

I would like it known that my parents don't know who I am. They never did. Not only because I'm trans. They never knew my little sister, either. They, too, talk like this.

She has a rationale for it as part of her book promo.
Bonus: she's friends with the mom of one the killers.

When you are trans, outliving your parents is far from a given. When you are trans, there is a great likelihood that your own funeral will be held under a fake name by people who have no regard for who you were or what you wanted. I am lucky to have people in my life I can trust to fight that.

Esther Ghey's actions are the reason I just had a conversation with my siblings and fiancee, instructing them to ban my parents from any future funeral or memorial in my honour, along with anyone else using any kind of rationalisation to deadname me.
Brianna Ghey was not murdered for being Esther Ghey's daughter, and Esther locating the problem of her daughter being murdered by radicalised cis kids in her daughter being trans is a result of her class loyalty. She simply wants to prevent kids from being trans. She gets no more grace from me.

I only use preferred pronouns for True Detransitioners, not the fake ones who are just doing it for attention but aren't serious about detransition.

Realized I'm gonna run out of food at breakfast tomorrow either way so I went running. (It sucked.)
I gotta either raise grocery money tonight or go hungry tomorrow

I am supposed to go jogging tonight but given that I have no protein-based food in the house and $2 in my bank account, that sounds like an injury liability

The conversations between Brianna's killers show how much they mirrored the dehumanizing rhetoric of British elites towards trans people! Yet Esther Ghey can't shut up about how sad her daughter was, how addicted to social media she was, how she was online too much---it's fucking revolting!

I feel like using your daughter's death to bang on about phone usage in schools which having jack fucking shit to say about kids being radicalized into hate, queer kids being isolated and bullied by peers, or the politicians who normalized a transphobic media climate is getting a bit vulgar.

The BBC is making a documentary on how awful it was for a British white woman to face any accountability for talking about racialized children in such dehumanizing and oddly sexualized terms, to further signal a cultural shift towards rank white supremacy.

These articles elide exactly what Clanchy wrote in her book, so a reminder that she described girls going through puberty as having "Cypriot bosoms" and wearing "flirty hijabs". She also talked about Jewish noses and commented on the skull shapes of various children.

I sometimes have chats with NHS managers about how to “restore trust” and it’s amazing how poorly they react to the suggestion that people who harm patients should lose their jobs.

The CPS (Crown Prosecution Service) ban rape survivors from accessing therapy and support before trial because it "taints the evidence" - something that is not the case for any other crime - and continually raise the bar for prosecuting sexual violence. This has fuck all to do with stopping abuse.
UK legislators are moving to criminalize the distribution or possession of "strangulation" porn and hoo-ey there are about a thousand things that can go wrong with this.
An amendment will be added to the Crime and Policing Bill this week.
