In an attempt to reduce the amount of recycling we create, we have started using Lush shampoo bars and solid cosmetics. It's not the first time Red has tried this and she found an unidentified bar in the cupboard. Can anyone tell us what Red has just washed herself with? #showerpotato

Ian Dunts' latest substack is a wonderful summary of Faulkners grilling by the Women and Equality Select Comission and picks apart the EHRC guidance and highlights why workplaces could be open to legal action if they follow it. A must-read for every UK trans. iandunt.substack.com/p/judgement-...
This was, simply put, the eradication of trans people from the country's social fabric. Most people cannot take a job if they have to out themselves to their colleagues whenever they need the loo. They will not go to a restaurant or the theatre or attend trade union meetings or go to church or see their child in a school play. The toilet issue is at once stupefyingly banal and yet existential.
