My Monday Mood:
Ever heard of the Conway Effect? No, it’s not a sci-fi time paradox (though that would be cool). It’s named after Lynn Conway (1938–2024), a transgender computer scientist who revolutionised computing. If you’re reading this on a phone, you can thank her.

The US is attempting to erase the existence of transgender citizens. This isn’t news. But what is news is the lengths they will go to to make trans citizens abroad stateless.

My daughter (6), the only girl in the family, who still swears she can’t read or write, installed this on the wall outside the living room. It is meant to say, “If you’re a little sister stay out!!” She is mighty proud of herself.
