Every time I read about banning books, I think of this: Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius. If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

Thank you for the music Bristol NOYO Ensemble (noyo.org.uk/the-orchestra/). Your joy and wonderful energy were contagious! A small example of the valuable and inspiring contributions young disabled people can make to our world.

Just finished Katriona O’Sullivan’s #POOR. It is excellent! Its main strength lies in its ability to convey so vividly the reality of growing up in poverty. If every professional working with children knew the problem in such detail, one would hope that outcomes for the children would improve.

Great initiative @viola-jane.bsky.social and @edpsydan.bsky.social to move to a kinder, gentler space. Thank you.
