It gets at some nuanced complexities of gender &sexuality in PA. Great to see it out with all its paper pals in this special issue. Excited to read the others

A bit biased, but if you're looking to follow a really good account, @uofgsociology.bsky.social might be the one. (Yes, it is my own department/division/whatever we are called now, but it's filled with a lot of good people and lots of fantastic research)

Disabled people are about to get completely screwed by this Government (I know it was bad before. It is about to get much worse).
This is shocking. ITV reporting that even those with extreme disabilities in the unfit to work category are likely to lose money under new government plans. Charities have branded the move catastrophic

The mass shooting in Örebro is absolutely horrific and heartbreaking. Some of the newspaper speculation I've seen has been downright weird, if not borderline inappropriate. It is also a good reminder that 'new information' is not the same as knowledge

Black ice everywhere and due to (what I assume is) underfunding there has been no salting of roads or anything. Consequently, I will do my best impersonation of a flat troll for the foreseeable future. Stay safe out there, folks.

#Wicked (Part 1) is a movie showing the cost of standing up to fascism, the importance of solidarity, that conformity is never liberation, and there's something in there about sacrificing principles for proximity to power (the Glinda of it all). All with a pretty great soundtrack.
