(1) I work at a homeless hostel for 16-25s. It's really hard atm, like everyone we have staff off. We were understaffed anyway before all this. Now there are 3 full-time day workers, 1 manager on annual leave but popping in anyway. Unlike a lot of keyworkers...

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary Which seems like a long time but I realised I haven't used it for about 4 years due to the increase in anger, hate & disinformation. @elonmusk you have ruined what was a good way to join in a national/global conversation.

Cookie dough and human rights blend. What's not to love? What is this country we've created when an ice-cream maker is a better opposition than the opposition? #BrokenBritain
Psst. Right now the UK Government are trying to extinguish the right to asylum and remove the rights of some of the most vulnerable people in society. So, here’s a few things they don't want you to be reminded of…

Out of the 59 backbench Conservative MPs who have signed up to the motion scrapping the Standards Committee, nearly a quarter (14) have broken the rules themselves. This is just an absolutely rotten to the core stitch up by Conservatives MPs who are only out to help themselves.

At cinema. Waiting for Shang Chi to start. Just me, the wife and our two children in. Old bastard comes in with his grandson and says we're sat in his seats and forces us to move. Like there's no other seats to choose from. #whatacunt #fuckingboomer
Speaking truth to power... Well said, lad. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻
You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.
Here is my full manifesto for London. Can any other candidate beat this? No chance! #VoteBinface #MakeYourVoteCount

"I know the road ahead – and it's right down that left-wing and you mustn't veer at all." Happy 89th birthday to Dennis Skinner, here debating Neil Kinnock at the Tribune rally in 1981.

I read this in Jim Bowen's voice. Whilst spinning around on my office chair. Still, it makes a very valid point. #ifonly
100,000 dead Boris Johnson says: “We did everything we could.” No, he didn’t

Been rereading some Legends TPBs. Found Grogu in the Epic Collection: Rise of the Sith's short story Children of the Force which takes place in the Jedi temple on Coruscant. So I'm gonna #asktheresistance Should Grogu's appearance have been the suprise it was? @RBatSWNN #milklast

Wow. On the front line in the fight against fascism and now this... I can't ever imagine this happening in this country.
"Oregon has become the first state in the United States to decriminalize possession of psilocybin and hard drugs as part of the passing of ballot measures 109 and 110 on Nov. 3, 2020." psuvanguard.com/oregons-prog…
My friend wrote a beautiful thing. You should read it too.
I’ve always thought about our occupational lives like patchwork quilts, made up of scraps and patterns that make us who we are. Before I was a mum my quilt had flashy bits, embroidered stars, bold patterns. Now, the new pieces are much smaller...
