1/Got three new projects under my belt over the last two days alongside my coursework. Then finished my evening off going back to basics and making two extra large scrunchies as Emily and I love this fabric. So I made one for Emily and there is one more available for £10- if anyone wants to help

Feminism doesn't require women to see trans+ people as the enemy. For many of us, feminism has always meant challenging inequality, standing alongside people whose rights are under threat, and refusing to accept that one group's equality must come at another's expense. That's our feminism too.

The quote from one of the women who signed our letter reads “I have grown incredibly exasperated at the portrayal of ‘gender critical’ perspectives as representing all women when my feminism has ALWAYS been inclusive and intersectional.”

"Disability activists warned for years that this would be the outcome of allowing COVID-19 to spread unmitigated. Now that it’s time to pay the piper, the state and its media allies are working desperately to sever the connection between COVID-19 and its consequences."

The Telegraph recently published an article about "sickfluencers" titled “How having a disability became cool." We've republished a piece by Julia Doubleday at The Gauntlet pushing back against the article, which she calls "absurd on its face." thesicktimes.org/2026/09/21/c...

A young woman stands by a staircase with a backdrop of tree canopy.  She wears a white, high quality mask and has long dark hair. She wears a teal sweatshirt and black pants. The text reads, “The Gauntlet x The Sick Times. COVID-19 — not TikTok — is disabling young women “Sickfluencers” are symptoms of a mass disabling event. By Julia Doubleday.”

The whole debate about whether the AI execs even grasp what they're doing has been at least partially settled by the released documents in the NYT v. OpenAI suit, which pretty conclusively establishes that 1) Everyone from executives to individual engineers understood they were engaged in mass theft

AI exec: We may have pulled off “the largest theft of labor in human history.”

Documents from our lawsuit reveal how tech leaders talk when they think no one is listening.
