"Are you sitting comfortably? Are you in your own warm sitting room with the door closed, surrounded by familiar things? Are you settling down for an evening of television? Perhaps you’re about to watch a crime drama?" Barbara Bridger #FR139

"Much like the making this other kind of art and life we are trying for, the acceptance of time can feel incredibly calming, and also infuriating." Sophie Patricia Chapman #FR139

“This week the Eastern Caribbean supreme court found that the island’s so-called buggery and gross indecency laws, which criminalised consensual anal sex, were unconstitutional.” Some good news!

Tanzil Chowdhury explains the process by which the direct action protest group 'Palestine Action' was deemed a terrorist organisation and proscribed, showing how activists sought to challenge and resist the massive state overreach criticallegalthinking.com/2025/07/10/r...

“Semenya was legally identified as female at birth but has a condition which means her body naturally produces higher levels of testosterone than women without the condition.” Bureaucratic policing of sex in sports is harmful and excludes many women, including intersex athletes like Caster Semenya.

“The UN Human Rights Council voted on Monday to renew the mandate of an LGBT rights expert, a move welcomed by advocates amid the absence of the United States, a former key supporter that is now rolling back such protections.” Good to see the UN HRC renew independent monitoring of LGBT rights. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
