Head over to my site to check out my review for the final volume of the amazing Yan, one of the best releases from @titanmangahq.bsky.social that has set a whole new standard for manga for me. Www.trans--scribe.blogspot.com
A pile of books. There are three books, two sitting flat on a wooden board, the thirst standing on top of them. They are there volumes of the manga Yan. The bottom book is bright pink, the middle a light blue, and the top one bright orange. The profile of a beautiful woman is drawn on the cover of the third book.

Anyone still questioning why Farage's Reform did so well? The majority of the British public have no idea how politics work in this country, they listen to our press and its lies and believe every word. If there is to be real change we have to take on our media.

I do think "Avoid giving money to someone who will use that money to harm minorities, whose product is one fiction franchise out of literally thousands" is kind of a reasonable ask. Like it's not even activism, it's "don't actively contribute to harm."

But I thought the FWS verdict brought nothing but clarity? "Employers do not need to wait for longdelayed guidance on single-sex spaces before implementing the Supreme Court ruling on biological sex, Bridget Phillipson has said." [Times]
Don’t wait for more clarity on single-sex spaces, bosses told
Geraldine Scott - Assistant Political Editor
Employers do not need to wait for longdelayed guidance on single-sex spaces before implementing the Supreme Court ruling on biological sex, Bridget Phillipson has said.

The women and equalities minister said the judgment last year had been “crystal clear” and insisted that organisations should already understand their legal obligations, despite an updated code of practice from the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) remaining unpublished more than five months after it was submitted to ministers.

Phillipson told Sky News she hoped to move “as fast as I can” to lay the guidance before parliament but said it was still going through the required processes, including consultation with devolved administrations.

Bosses have said they are waiting for the updated guidance before implementing new rules on changing rooms and other sex-segregated facilities, but Phillipson said there was a difference between employers’ duties and those covered by the code of practice.
