An important takeaway – the High Court has made clear that the Code of Practice has gotten the law wrong. It will need to be rejected by the Minister.

Today’s judgment makes one thing very clear: the reality of trans lives still goes ignored by the courts. Read Jo Maugham’s response to the crisis of empathy that’s harming the UK’s trans community – and the law 👇 goodlaw.social/np26

Trans lives are real and they matter. The courts must recognise that

The High Court’s decision is wrong and we will appeal it

🕯 Today we pause to remember the trans people whose lives were taken by violence this year. Those lost to hatred, and those lost to the unbearable weight of living in a world that too often refuses to see their worth. We hold every name and every story in our hearts. #TDOR

The majority of the UK media, encouraged by the UK's equality body, is waging a campaign to encourage the public, employers and health providers to harass anyone who doesn't fit their definition of what a woman should look like. This is what JK Rowling is funding.

If you don't fancy #Forge yet, get ready to start because LOOK AT THIS (my commission from @marcusto.bsky.social) 💙 🛠️ #XMen #XForce #ComicBookArt #MarvelComics

Black-and-white drawing of Forge. He's wearing a jacket over a shirt and bolo tie, and dressy trousers with a big belt buckle. His hair is tied back into a half ponytail and it flies gently behind him in an imaginary breeze. A loose strand falls by the side of his face. Make no mistake: he's hot. With the rolled up sleeves, the closed metal fist and the stern expression, the overall feel of the piece is ROOAARRRRRR. Marcus To's signature is in the lower right corner of the image.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me?
Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

Tessa lounging on a sofa in her Hellfire Club attire - that's a corset with open lacing at the front, long gloves and high boots. Also presumably something that passes for panties, although they're not visible here and all you can see is THIGH and HIP. She's also wearing a long cloak attached with a golden chain around her neck, with the collar raised. Her eyebrow is cocked and there's a smirk on her lips, so she looks eeeeviiil. There's a chess set on a table in front of her. Oh, and Sebastian Shaw is doing some combat training in the background, but who cares. I've cropped his head off.

Magical realism meets Americana in GennaRose Nethercott's Fifty Beasts To Break Your Heart, conjuring modern folklore, mundane monsters and bewitching fables. What a wonderful book-friend.

A paperback copy of Fifty Beasts To Break Your Heart on a soft pink knitted blanket. The cover is off-white, with the title in the centre and a tree branch running up the left side and across. On the bottom left, a wolf looks up at a goat woman in a dress on the middle right. Below her is a pink carnation with a skull where its pistil should be.
