Excellent news. And good on the guardian for highlighting that this was a *colonial* law.

Indian supreme court decriminalises homosexuality

Landmark ruling for gay rights striking down colonial-era law is hailed by LGBTI campaigners

What harrowing times we live in. It would appear that now physical punishment for children is outlawed, schools (run by 'multi-academy trusts', ie businesses) are using psychological punishment as a 'cost-effective' way of dealing with misbehaviour.

Also, unsurprisingly, I am a new to @Mastodon and would be v interested in people's tips for getting started, and in particular building relevant networks and effective use of #hashtags... how similar/different is it to twitter, particularly given no generalised search function?
Does anyone know about the reporting mechanisms and repercussions for #GDPR infringement?
#GDPRinfringement
also idek if this attempt at #threading on @mastoden works?? i am v new to it all and v uninitiated.

but again, i'm not an expert, hell, i haven't even read Das Kapital, so perhaps i'm not the best person to ask about this, and i would also genuinely be interested in other people's thoughts.
