I cannot stress this enough, and I am tired of saying it: British white people, everything you are seeing in the US is coming here and you cannot watch Eurovision or Great British Bakeoff or sign petitions and think you can stiff-upper-lip or ignore your way out of this.

Learn to be UNCOMFORTABLE.

Colonial Market came into North Mpls when Aldi left, filling a huge need for the community.

Now they’re delivering groceries to neighbors in hiding. Support them if you can.

Incredible contrast between this and Keir Starmer running a delivery driver over
Mamdani Forces Delivery Apps to Pay Back $4.6 Million Cheated From Drivers
New York City's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has already scored a major win for deliveristas working for three delivery giants.

Does Starmer even know that you can just do things when you're in charge? Has anyone told him that?

Everyone wants to be the hero, the Main Character that slings the first punch and Sticks It To The Man. But what a movement anywhere truly requires is _humility_.

To know when you are not The One For the Moment, and take a back seat and ask what needs doing, even if it's folding laundry.

Time is truly a flat circle when it comes to abusive men parachuting into movement work, demanding to be worshipped, and then taking a wrecking ball to critics and ultimately the whole project once challenged

Don't think I don't notice that you are NOWHERE when disabled people are asking for your help and you just like to trot us out when it is convenient.

Seeing yet another 'using whistles is disablist' piece circulating: for the 40 millionth time, using disabled people as cover like this is disgusting and calculated to prey on people who are anxious about doing the wrong thing. Doesn't escape notice that white people are the worst offenders.

Anyone know anyone at the Folio Society?
Failing that, other publishers of lavishly illustrated books?
Publisher i had as destination for projects has turned problematic.

I was up last night on elder cat duty as he kept having episodes. That I was 50% coherent today was a win.

If you saw a woman being cornered on the bus, would you step in? If you witnessed transphobia at your local coffee shop, would you know how to help?

My family has some History with various movements; it was drummed into me from a very young age I am not a front-line activist. This is something I have learned and accepted - and also why I've not taken part in some movements that just see a giant of a person and think I'm gonna be the Muscle.

There were a lot of blues and Motown albums in my house growing up, and when Janet Jackson and Prince were big, that music also came into the house.

You can't put the Supremes on without me grooving to this day.

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes."

Horror keeps proving the same rule: Black women identify danger early. Survival depends on whether anyone listens.

I like when I get to learn new things about the Black Diaspora, always something interesting
Black Canadians have contributed so much to the tapestry of our country. For Black History Month, I wanted to highlight a few people who stand out for me, amongst the thousands. Swipe to learn a bit about them. #BlackHistoryMonth

So, Labour is still selling AI Will Set You Free to working class folks. When AI is crashing and burning everywhere else, the UK Gov't is lying to ppl and taking AI blood money.

I know you're busy as hell, but you're a good communicator. Any advice, @mskellymhayes.bsky.social ? Leads coming up blank.
I've got a question and I don't mind it circulating wider; is there such a thing as resistance training for neurodiverse people? Because it occurs to me there's a need for it, and a need for it to make sense so neurospicy folks can protect themselves in escalating situations.
