Worked hard to get this into Guardian Oz & big props to @fiercemum.bsky.social for setting it up & Melissa Davey for publishing it. She will doubtless get loads of hassle from transphobes for it, but it needs to be out there.
Puberty Blocker bans harm trans kids, no-one should pretend they don’t.

Anyway.

Don't ever let some fucking dork tell you a setting featuring bright blue soldiers called "Ultramarines" and catgirls and canon characters named Lion El' Jonson and *Obiwan Sherlock Clousseau* is something you have to take seriously.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Incredibly frustrating to see people in the UK still getting Welsh nationalism so wrong. The right to self determine isn’t a sinister boogeyman. When no matter how the country votes it still has no hold in Westminster meaning we live under laws that we haven’t voted for is undemocratic at best.

The end logic of this if you’re in the UK btw is DEFEND THE BBC.

Complain about it, protest bad coverage of course, but we won’t get another institution that makes safe, publicly funded, reliable, human-created, vetted content for kids if we let the BBC get destroyed.
We've reluctantly removed access to YouTube kids. It's now no longer just the odd thing

It’s disgraceful that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor continues to hold his titles and lives in an effectively taxpayer-subsidised mansion.

This raises serious questions about how seriously our institutions take allegations of child sexual abuse.

The bad dreams stop when he puts on the mask and goes out at night...

Experience the dark and ugly underbelly of New York City during the late 1930s through the eyes of Wesley Dodds, The Sandman, and his eventual partner and lover, the modern woman Dian Belmont.

IMO, one of the '90s best series.

Can we widen this to 'if you permanently emigrate anywhere', perhaps including pensioners who get citizenship of Spain, Portugal, wherever?

A kind of 'one in/one out' policy.
I’m afraid that if you emigrate to Dubai for the tax breaks and 24-hour security, you really should give up your citizenship here for someone who wants it.
