Well as Comic-Con powers forward I’m striking a blow for Geekuality today 🙂

With that in mind it makes sense that my top stories should be ones sharing messages of hope and equality.
Whether it’s actress Tilda Swinton risking jail with a peaceful protest against Russia’s stance on homosexuality or the news that Jane Austen has been selected to appear on the new £10 note.

So in the words od Bill & Ted, ‘Be Excellent to Each Other’.
Hope you enjoy this selection of stories from around the world.
