Compulsive if uncomfortable viewing & an absolute #mustsee for all parents of teens. Outstanding script, acting & direction. Bravo Jack Thorne & Stephen Graham for tackling such a sensitive social issue blighting the lives of so many of our young.
Adolescence (Netflix) is absolutely astonishing television.

All filmed in one take, there are moments that I cannot believe how much stress there must have been behind the scenes to get right.

Veritable tour de force with outstanding script by multi talented Tallulah Brown, her superb all-female cast & direction by @owencl.bsky.social. Music by The Trills is a powerful addition to this important play. Richly deserved 4⭐️ @theguardian.com #theatreroyalburystedmunds

There is hope! @slotkin.senate.gov definitely one to follow.
Senator Elissa Slotkin, a first-term Democrat from Michigan, delivered a simple message as her party’s official response to President Trump’s combative address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night: Trump, she said, was “going to make you pay in every part of your life.”

Found this article deeply, deeply disturbing. What ARE we doing to the minds of our young?
A girls’ football match ended in tears after a player with short hair was ­accused of being a boy by the rival team.

The all-girls York Railway Institute AFC team was playing in October last year when an 11-year-old, who has a short haircut, scored a goal

Excel piece surrogacy @alicettimes.bsky.social tinyurl.com/y8bsx334. Friend suffered gruelling cancer treatment & unable to have own child. Generous, altruistic surrogate offered opport to have own baby. Can't deny women chance to have family, need to ensure UK surrogacy isn't banned & clarify laws
Surrogacy needs scrutiny, but don’t ban it
While carrying another woman’s baby can raise moral and ethical qualms, with proper vetting it fulfils a vital need
