And then, you absolutely guessed it, two separate parents came through the line with their trans children, one father crying about how good and rare it feels to hear his son defended. Speak up, authors, if you can. People are listening.

Had a TERF troll come to my event at Edinburgh today, who wanted to defend the “lovely Jo Rowling” during my q&a. Reader, my reply was impassioned. I didn’t insult her or call her a name; but I robustly and heatedly defended the lives of young trans people against very unlovely billionaires.

Nu när ministrar och Tidöpolitiker säger att de tycker att ”ungdomar som gör rätt för sig” inte ska utvisas är det inte sant. För då hade de stoppat alla tonårsutvisningar, skriver Tanvir Mansur.

Oh, it's from mythology as well? I suppose that's not terribly surprising. I don't read Marvel comics, though, so I have no idea what they've been up to. If they made Laufey male, name intact, that would make them look a bit silly over in Scandinavia-land.

Ah. I was looking for an opportunity to say: Laufey (in new GoW) appears to me to be an Icelandic name, and they pronounce 'Lauf' in a way you might have fun looking up. (My take on the game? Meh, I don't ARPG. But I would try a demo. Big up from previous GoWs.)
