'The bathing ponds at Hampstead Heath in north-west London will remain trans-inclusive after a public consultation overwhelmingly favoured its existing rules.'
Good news. 86% of 38,000 respondents in favour of retaining trans-inclusive policies.

Policy agreement means trans people will continue to have access to Kenwood Ladies’ and Highgate Men’s ponds in north-west London
Just had an idea for a twist for a future Traitors series... Currently once you're a Traitor, there's no going back. If each Traitor were given the power to become Faithful again just before the finale, would that ever be tempting?
I suspect in game theory terms, you'd always prefer to be a Traitor at the end, but it would be more satisfying to win as a Faithful. Would anyone go in that direction? Would it change things if you could tell the other players that you'd done so?
So, today is the by-election. Do we know whether there'll be an exit poll? I know normally there isn't one, but this is far from an ordinary by-election. I can't find any information one way or the other - surely I'm not the only one interested? @samfr.bsky.social @robfordmancs.bsky.social ?
Currently mulling: how much of the foreword for a technical book can reasonably be about Into The Woods?
The eye-roll at 17:00 on this @fryrsquared.bsky.social video is possibly the best eye-roll in history. Think "since the invention of the kiss" from The Princess Bride, but applied to eye-rolls.
No timestamp in the link, because it's worth watching the whole video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnzR...
