Good morning GFPs! Thank you for your lovely comments about the interview with the wonderful Tracy King, I hope some of you were inspired to check out her book! We did get a question about who on earth Lee Child is, reminding me many of my readers are not British; I have to say I thought the author of the Jack Reacher books transcended borders! But in any case, that is who he is.

And now for a gif I know Tracy will appreciate…

I made that all by myself! Not bad for a “geriatric millennial”. Even if it did take me, um…some time.

In other news, question for GFPs: would any of you prefer to listen to these newsletters instead of reading them? It’s a function Substack offers and I’m not sure whether it’s worth recording a voice version or not. So, a poll! Please vote accordingly and I shall take your views under advisement.

Gender data gap of the week

So we all know that commuting travel affects our well-being. There have been loads of studies on the topic and the general consensus is that travel for work sucks. I paraphrase. But until now no one has thought to do a quantitative analysis of how travel for UNPAID care labour affects our wellbeing. I know, shocker, right? I mean we only design our entire public transport system around commuters (see Invisible Women pp.29-39), we obviously care deeply - DEEPLY — about the wellbeing of the people who do all the unpaid care work that enables all the paid work to happen.
