In the UK too: I regularly walk by a house flying that flag and it always makes me smile, knowing it might help show support and love for someone who otherwise feels alone, neglected, lost, unwanted, whatever. They're going to need a new flag soon, the current one is a bit wind-battered!

The NHS Guidance on trans people in hospital will protect zero women but will badly harm trans people. What a hateful disgrace and will be remembered by future generations as a stain on us all.

I always fly a progress pride flag in my upstairs window (U.K. here) It’s in support of all the people I know and love who are LGBTQ+ and the young person who is my neighbour who also flies one. It will stay there until it doesnt need to anymore.

So we fly a pride flag in our front yard in a very conservative neighborhood and it’s been there for the last few years. Someone put this in our mailbox and my goodness…

I’m having a week in Paris. Just been to the local market, and was enchanted by the sight of a class of nursery aged children, holding hands in pairs, being taken to see the produce and buy vegetables. Each little child was wearing a painted paper chef’s hat with their name on. Absolutely adorable

"But I think I find Zelenskyy to be more difficult to deal with than Putin" Why? Because one is real and fights a desperate war for his country and people, while the other is a self-enriching megalomaniac not caring about his people, but so like yourself?” Trump IS a fan of the murdering 🇷🇺 bastard

The silence is deafening. I’ve been over on FB and all is calm, hardly any hate filled rants. No laughing at poor people who have drowned. No Taxi Service” comments . No “should ofs” instead of “should haves”. No there’s instead of theirs No are instead of our. Thank you Zelenskyy.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 8260: Whatever genre you write, read folklore. Folklore exists because at some point, people cared so much about a certain thing that they put it into a story, and passed it down the centuries in order to keep it alive. That deserves attention.

Today is World Day Against the Death Penalty. Let us seek to end this inhumane and immoral practice around the world, especially here in America. It is so deplorable that in the 21st century this is going on in a modern democracy.
