NOT dead. But I did get REALLY banged up in a car wreck and have been in a physical rehab center for the last 3 months. ...I also don't know anyone named "Mike Davis" 🙃

This is a must watch. The NY Times carefully debunk every lie that Trump, Vance and their administration have told about the brutal murder of Renee Nicole Good by ICE. Please RT far and wide 🙏 We cannot let them get away with this!

If what is happening in Gaza isn't a genocide, I am truly disturbed at what the UKG think passes for one. This letter will be seen and read by those in the future as a stain upon the UK and how the govt dissembled in the face of a complete humanitarian crisis, forced famine, inhumane bombing and, yes, genocide.
🚨 NEW: The Government has concluded Israel is not committing genocide in Gaza

To be clear what happened here. Israel bombed a hospital. They waited for paramedics and first responders to arrive. Then they bombed it again. This is known as the 'double tap'. You are watching unfathomable evil, armed and facilitated by the West.
A live streamed genocide. The Israeli military know exactly who their targets are when they fire missiles from drones. At least 15 people, including paramedics, civil defence and 3 journalists, murdered on live television. No-one can say they did not know 👇

A note on Twitter/X & me: I’ll be staying on this platform, pretty much no matter what. I hope you will too. Do NOT cede public space to the far-Right. I’m enjoying being on BlueSky: but it’s a sort of echo-chamber compared to Twitter. WE NEED TO STAY HERE TOO. Pse RT if u agree.

This story is one of the most disturbing I've ever covered. It's about how the views of a deeply weird ideological sect affected science, medicine and the media, with devastating impacts on patients. Please read and pass on. This horror has to stop. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Ik ben wel gek ook, dat ik op dit moment weken maak van +80 uur om onderwijs, onderzoek en outreach (meedere interviews en duidingen per dag op het moment) te doen terwijl me van alle kanten wordt toegebeten dat we nutteloos, overbodig en elitair zijn.

Today is #WorldDyslexiaDay. 💚 10% of the population are thought to be dyslexic. Dyslexia is part of neurodiversity which affects information processing. This affects reading and writing, which is what most people tend to think of about dyslexia. However, it is important to recognise that it can also impact individual’s processing/remembering of information, organisational skills and their ability to learn new literacy skills. There is a wealth of information on @BDAdyslexia’s website and social media pages. Follow and listen to people with dyslexia: @Saraheboon @21andsensory @lizzieacker_ @draevans @DyslexiaFound @MadeByDyslexia Do recommend any other accounts or resources below!👇🏻 #DyslexiaAwarenessWeek #Dyslexia #DyslexiaAwareness #Neurodiversity

For the past year, millions of us around the world have made repeated, desperate calls for a ceasefire. We demanded an end to the genocide. We warned of a disastrous regional conflict. We were ignored. Governments have fuelled the machinery of war. Their indifference to human life has destroyed prospects for peace and endangered us all. All of this violence was entirely avoidable. Without urgent de-escalation, more unimaginable horror is on the horizon. It’s time to listen to the voices of ordinary people across the globe calling for peace. That means ending the root cause of this appalling cycle of violence: the occupation of Palestine.

Europeans were completely & utterly baffled during the brexit campaign with the "Take Back Control" slogan - of Borders & Rules. 8 years after the brexit vote, how is that going and why are Europeans still baffled? A quick, short🧵

I’m sorry but these are not “tough decisions” for politicians. They are tough decisions for those forced to choose between heating their homes and eating.

It is the heartbreak of my life that THE LAST ILLUSION is no longer in print. We have the rights, my agent & I. It is prob my best book in many ways. I will never forgive the editor (a young white woman who used her optics to mess up my life in a big way!) who did this to us.

I'm dyspraxic and have a stammer. If I could form a country, the constitution would guarantee the right to communication support, universal design for accessibility, and protection from ableism. It would prioritize inclusive spaces, empathy, and support.

These words of @taylorswift13 play in my head often. I grew up feeling that my autistic/ADHD joy was too much, being told I need to ‘tone it down a little’. But at The Eras Tour, surrounded by a bunch of strangers also erupting with joy, there was no shame. Thank you @taylornation13 for creating magic. At 4pm yesterday I was getting my nails done when she somehow managed to get me tickets for last night. An hour later I was home, two hours later at @wembleystadium, three hours later getting Long Live and YOYOK as surprise songs and getting to experience The Eras Tour for the second time. Until The Eras Tour Thursday (London N4!), I hadn’t been to a concert since I was 13. I found it incredibly overwhelming. I struggle in large crowds. I have panic attacks. But these two nights, I didn’t feel anxious at all. Just joy. The post Eras tour crash is real. But I’m remembering that these moments are what makes live worth living. And I’m feeling so lucky that I got to experience this. ☁️💫🤍 #TaylorSwift #TheErasTour #TSTheErasTour #ErasTour #Autistic #Autism #Neurodiversity #Neurodivergent #Anxiety #MentalHealth #AuDHD

Given this, why are peaceful, non-violent climate activists, being imprisoned? This is blatant political persecution and suppression. The disingenuous argument i.e. sophistry used, were that climate protests were disruptive, or a nuisance. theguardian.com/society/arti… 1/🧵
