I have to say, I've been quite disappointed by the lack of vocal support shown for Simon James Green by some of our fellow authors, publishers & influencers over the homophobic cancellation of his visit to a Catholic school. The world *isn't* a fairytale for #LGBTQ creatives 1/

and we need to nail our fabulous colours to the mast and stand up for one another when this despicable bigotry happens. We only have strength in numbers and when one is threatened we are ALL threatened. We all must do better x

Tonight, in the city of Zanjan, Iranians, women and men, are singing the revolutionary song called “Barayeh” in unity. Iranians have never been so united against their oppressors. That’s why our oppressors are scared. #IranRevoIution #MahsaAmini

Fucking YES Simon Pegg!

So sad there are educators out there who would rather close minds than open them. Who could push love and understanding, but choose hate and ignorance. (And this isn’t just an issue in the US of course).
