Once more for the morning crowd! These books are really great, and I feel they get overlooked. But Terry Pratchett really knew his science, and loved it, and this series absolutely exemplifies that.
Looking forward to talking about narrativium and lies-to-children π

Whilst on the topic, is there a good reason for why Julie Bindelβs open letter, and the medias reporting of it, only name gender critical writers who have received death threats? And only one woman of colour? Is there a particular reason why the rest of us have been overlooked?

For every tweet about bad laws against trans people, acts of violence and abuse and discrimination, hospitals being threatened, etc. that you see me broadcast on here, I have 10x that in my inbox that simply can't be made public.
It's so much worse than people realize.

They come for trans kids first because leveraging fear about βharmingβ kids with βexperimental treatmentsβ is an easy sell to the uninformed.
But what theyβre really doing is laying the groundwork to remove supports for all trans people. Kids are a stepping stone.

Scuba divers! My partner & I are doing an open water course (I've qualified before but doing it as refresher.) He didn't equalise properly at 3m & now has ear pain (don't think he's damaged the drums.) Had no congestion prior. Any advice on the best ways to relieve it please?

This is absolutely mesmerising. An Assistant Purser who was on the Titanic as it went down relives the experience, back in 1979. Extraordinary story, beautifully told.

This series of assaults on our rights - from the Right - has always been part of the plan. Demonising trans folk by weaponising the fears of some women will only strengthen the patriarchy, and make things worse for all of us.

Weβre fucked. Weβre going to be fighting against overturning abortion rights next in the UK. This is how it always starts β derail from issues that affect a demographic by creating a boogeyman to βfightβ instead, followed by the sympathetic intros of the far right in the press.

Terry Pratchett, who truly did understand:
βThey are very frightened now,β Helmclever said. βThey donβt understand the city. They donβt understand why trolls are allowed here. They donβt understand people who donβtβ¦understand them. They fear you. They fear everything.β
βThud!

On August 5th I left my home after I was swatted. I thought I would be safe at a hotel until I was doxxed. Things are escalating, and now I am in hiding. I need everyone to share this as widely as possible. I am scared of what is going to come next.

I'm not going to waste my time responding to all the unfounded accusations I'm getting today. Just this one, which I believe to be the most important (and potentially actionable.) So listen up, and if you're good, I might send you a picture of my son's excellent cat.

We are really at a point where authors boldly goad outing our peers children. Unashamedly trying to harass a woman out of a job, citing her support for her marginalised child as part of the grounds for why she is unfit to work. Then audaciously claim ~you~ are being silenced?

The way folks have been talking about @Joannechocolat and her child is truly despicable. As is this manufactured controversy-for-clicks which seeks to centre JKR yet again. JH is a beacon of light and love and does not in any way deserve this. She has my support unwaveringly.
