It feels like artists are being forgotten in all of this. Not just financially, but the mental health impact is severe, my nervous system is a wreck. "The most likely outcome of the present crisis is dozens of hard-working and talented artists being paid nothing."
The Summerhall Crisis | "100s of artists/production teams desperately waiting to be paid thousands for their Edinburgh Fringe run" | "Our company is owed 12.5k, over 10k of that is with The Fringe Society"

I’ve not got any lead artist shows booked this year, now my current one is up. A few things in development but no big show. I’m enjoying the peace of wandering through ideas and reading chaotically, and seeing what sparks my interest. Pulling out old ideas and dreaming up new.

Does the "serious but unquantifiable" risk of taking puberty blockers also apply to children diagnosed with early onset puberty, some of them toddlers? If not, it seems this is a policy designed by people who don't believe trans kids should exist
🚨 BREAKING: Health Secretary Wes Streeting has said he intends to ban puberty blockers for trans children. Jo Maugham, Director of the Good Law Project, reported today that "subject to the outcome of the court proceedings and consultation" Streeting will ban puberty blockers.
