Two recent articles:

Fans Rally for a Resurgence of the Canceled Series Dead Boy Detectives

Fans Fight to Bring Dead Boy Detectives Back to Life

I love this fandom.

Petition in case there's anyone who hasn't signed.

Steve Yockey (writer, developer and executive producer) is impressed with the billboard campaign(s). :)

Yes there are so many terrible things in the world, but art and stories always matter. 💙❤️💜💗

I hate it here.

JK Rowling toasts ‘TERF VE Day’ and confirms donation to group behind Supreme Court case

Someone said that she's basically our Musk (meaning that HP is like Tesla) and alas they are right. :( The billionaire to Bond villain pipeline is definitely a thing.

Here is a link to all current gov.uk Trans petitions.

Also, let's remember that some people are wonderful. From 2020:

Daniel Radcliffe declares ‘trans women are women’ in response to JK Rowling’s anti-trans tirade

And via Owls (behind paywall for me, but might work for others):

Trans people like me will still be protected by law, no matter what opponents think

ETA: Via Kerk:

A brief summary of the Transgender/Equality Act court case

And from that post, a change.org petition:

Overturn the UK's New Legal Definition of a Woman

~

Also since I am here, a post about the benefits changes, also with many links.

And there's always fic...

Posted the second chapter of my Crystal fic:

Chapter 2: A Dramatic Morning with Detective Interruptions.

Would you believe it, but Crystal has a lot of unresolved issues...

Happy Easter!

Radio Times: The Stolen Girl review: Denise Gough and Holliday Grainger show how thrillers should be done
Yes it's shlocky and full of twists and bonkers cliffhangers - but we wouldn't have it any other way.

^The reason I highlight this show is that my middle daughter* has a minor part. :)

The show premiers today on Disney+

(I am completely unspoiled, like COMPLETELY. I know nothing about the plot, all I have seen is that headline.)

*Impish Girl, who is now 23 years old! Since graduating she has done a play and a musical, but this is her first TV role.)

ETA: We have watched 3 episodes so far. It's a very typical sort of mystery thriller, and so far Impish Girl's role has been about 10 seconds long. *g*

It's not a 'omg watch this' kinda show, but if you're into that genre - go for it. Plenty of twists.

David Tennant Does a Podcast With… Georgia Tennant
^This is actually a misnomer, because it's Georgia interviewing David. Just the loveliest people, it's difficult to overstate.

And then I recently came across this Will Young song, and it's my new favourite:



(It's a cover of a Bats for Lashes song, original here)

The song is from the album 'Crying on the Bathroom Floor', which is an album where he covered songs from female artists. "This is not a covers album as such, well certainly not in the standard way. I wanted to bring songs from female artists who I admire into a new arena."

I'm late with this one...
Finding Hope And Spring On Transgender Day Of Visibility
The past three months have been brutal for transgender people—but if there’s one thing our community knows, it’s how to travel through darkness to find spring.

Useful:
Tracking the rise of anti-trans bills in the U.S.
The United States has experienced a long rise in anti-trans legislation. Now it's surging.

Know hope:
‘Just plain old Larry’: A Wisconsin man’s testimony about gender-affirming care went viral. Here’s his story.
Milwaukee retiree Larry Jones, 85, came to a legislative hearing supporting a ban. He changed his mind after hearing from transgender youth.
