What are we reading this weekend, my fellow bookish and queers?

150,000 marched yesterday in London for trans rights. Opened the Sky News app. Scrolled and scrolled. Nothing. BBC News app. Nothing. Guardian app. Nothing. This is what actual silencing looks like.

Happily guilty on all charges! (Except for not getting out of bed, I will in fact be getting out of bed for this...but you don't have to if you don't want to.)

Well, this looks DELIGHTFUL (though unfortunately I'll be in Canberra at the in-person Conflux that weekend!)
