3M workers in Swansea exposed to toxic chemicals in firefighting foam
For decades it was 3M's biggest outside the US, and the factory made nappy fastenings and video tape.

Remember when folks were using safety pins to signal that they’d protect each other (and then capitalists started selling gold safety pins)?

A definition of music has been notoriously elusive, and I don’t pretend to have one, but one thing I think ties it all together, why our brains respond so ecstatically, is that it’s evidence of a human mind, not how the world usually sounds in our absence. It’s why music can seem to keep us company.

This is my friend's cat. Its name is Cookie Swirl, and it disappeared in the American section of Charlotte airport on 11/10. We're asking for your help. She doesn't have any other socials, so if you can post it widely to see if anyone knows where it is. It's a little thing, but matters a lot to her.

I'm deeply concerned about the wellbeing of prisoners who were involved in Palestine Action protests, and are currently on hunger strike.
Some have not eaten for six weeks. A number have been hospitalised. They are all being held on remand - without trial or conviction.

I live in Wales and today received my Join Us letter from Reform UK, complete with SAE which I posted back to them, immediately, empty. If every other person in Wales did this, Reform would spend over £1.5 million on postage. Not sorry. Join me Cymru.

Almost everyone in the US has seen these photos at some point: Nazi book burnings, seared into our national psyche as the quintessential expression of fascist tyranny. But few people know what books they were burning, beyond the fact that many of the books’ authors were Jewish.

As if needed benefits is a fun way to live. And as if all those benefits don't rapidly funnel back to the rich in rent, bills etc anyway.

A 🧵 on #AIDS in the 80s/90s:
I was 15 when I first had sex with a man.
I’d snuck off to London’s Heaven nightclub with the express intent of ridding myself of my ‘gay virginity’, a goal I achieved easily with a visiting American photographer.
