It's cool that we can conduct these population cohort studies using Swedish register data.
Less than 1% (21 out of 2467) underwent a legal gender reversal following a legal gender change.
"These results highlight that legal gender reversal was an infrequent occurrence in a national sample."

Mamdani always said rent freezing was only part of the solution for more affordable housing. Very interesting to see this as the next step!
Learning that Annemarie Gray (no relation) of Open New York, NYC's YIMBY group, has been appointed to Mayor-elect Mamdani's housing transition team. This is FANTASTIC news!

I really enjoyed the exhibit "When We See Us: A Century of Black Figuration in Painting" at Liljevalchs in Stockholm. It's organized around six themes: The Everyday, Joy and Revelry, Repose, Sensuality, Spirituality, and Triumph and Emancipation.

First new type of malaria drug in 25 years.
"Promising results from a new malaria drug offer hope against emerging drug resistance in Africa. In a clinical trial, ganaplacide–lumefantrine (GanLum) cured 97.4% of participants, outperforming an existing treatment, which cured 94%."

Something any survivor of abuse can tell you is that one of the most painful parts of surviving abuse is the isolation that follows. Abusers are seldom abandoned, but victims are.
"Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein" is a phrase that first appeared in newspapers in March 2011 and appeared regularly from that point onward. it is INCONCEIVABLE to me that this many people were still associating with him!!

One of the main reasons the UK has historically been so much less polarised than the US, is that Britain has a shared source of information, consumed and trusted by most people regardless of their politics.
