I love this so much! A guide to 40 book heroes, with a huge range of time periods and genres included. Similar to Wide Eyed's 40 Icons series but with book characters ❤️. I'd love something like this in English!

I'm sorry @KarenKilgariff but have you seen what your adopted city has been up to? It takes a lot to warm my cold dead heart but yesterday being a Glaswegian fucking did it 💖 i thought you would want to see this.
After watching #KenmureStreet reports on TV, I am surprised no report showed the scale of the protest. Here is my unedited WindaesTV report of the detainees’ release #PeopleMakeGlasgow
Actually this morning i cried about a swan so I'm probably not totally dead inside but I just like to think i am 🤷 this still made me feel more than i normally do, so wonderful.
@MyFavMurder fucking hooray for that. For humans seeing other humans and wanting them to be safe. And not removed from their homes and community by force. And making change happen by singing & standing together. Hooray for everyone there. Hooray for making glasgow a better place.
In fact, I've never tried to write a #fuckinghooray but this week in Glasgow a man climbed under an immigration control van and stayed there for 7 hours to stop them removing some of our neighbors, and hundreds of people showed up to peaceably show support. @MyFavMurder
