The Guardian has an 'explainer' about the India-Pakistan conflict that manages to avoid stating that the border between the countries was originally drawn by an Englishman who had never been to India and signed off on in a hurry by Lord Mountbatten because he had to get back to Britain for a party.

The UK Supreme Court is Wrong.

Trans Women are Women
Trans Men are Men
Non-Binary people are Non-Binary.

The court's ruling on biological sex is not only wrong, it is dangerous, overty transphobic, and further highlights the organised transphobia of the UK's cis-supremacist society.

A science fantasy story where an actual de-extinction occurs. Field biologists go out to work and suddenly there are Carolina Parakeets, alive again with no explanation. There’s no sinister reveal or conflict arc, the entire story is just happy biologists enjoying the now-alive, thriving parakeets.

Currently in Cambodia, and there are lots of tourists talking of visiting sites linked to the genocide as vital and necessary.

It's taking up a lot of space in my brain, if #museum people have read anything about morals of dark tourism, or has their own thoughts - would love to hear!

How do you explain to your toddler that you are blind?

In a letter to my Little One I explain how we have navigated parenting together in our own beautiful, blurry and unique way.

I wrote this yesterday before I heard the news about Sussex being fined £585,000 by the higher education regulator OfS led by Arif Ahmed (what a confirmation of bias!) and the repetition of that old cover story, 'Hounded.'

The Israeli state just murdered Palestinian journalist Hossam Shabat.

One of the finest journalists on earth, his courageous work was instrumental in understanding the depravity of Israel’s genocide.

That’s why Israel killed him.

Never forget Hossam Shabat
