The New World asked me to speak to some British trans women about what life has been like for them over the past few years - here's what they had to say, in their own words: www.thenewworld.co.uk/marie-le-con...

Lobby Journo Challenge: put half as much energy into asking Jolly Old Nigel about his massive 17 Rule Breach 'whoopsiedaisy' as you do asking the few remaining non-transphobic MPs what girls are.

This week on Autistic Women Oversharing, we're talking about what's in our cosy, sensory-friendly Autism Nests - and get derailed by about 10 combined minutes of ice cream discourse. Told you we were neurodivergent. Get it wherever you get your podcasts!

man's betrayed so many people it just isn't funny, and he gets to betray people on an international scale now too. Blair v2.0 but even more of a wet, despicable little coward

Luca Mignon, 33, and rescue cat Whiskers McGraw, 12, got off to a pleasant enough start, but became ride-or-die besties in the face of the scary tube monster that sucks up all the best leftover floor-snacks.

This is the 15th year of #DuvetKnowItsChristmas, which is preposterous. Rules: if you find yourself dealing with unusual / claustrophobic / gaudy sleeping arrangements this Christmas Eve, share a picture with the world. Use the hashtag (with capitalisation) and cc me if you can be bothered.

After reading yet another piece about inheritance anxiety, I realised that I felt… none of it.

Not because I don’t care, but because when my estate is being taxed, I will be, by the very nature of my demise, be unavailable for comment.

There is a larger conversation though, and I have it below:

I wonder how much Ofcom’s failure to use even the limited powers it has against Twitter is based on concern that it would be quite revealing when Musk just ignores any ruling.

Zipcar is shutting down its UK operations, basically the only car club that worked in London. Massive kick to anyone who tries to live in capital without owning a car. Having been a customer for 17 years and used Zipvans to move house repeatedly, this is.... very bad! (Zipcar is owned by Avis)
