Literally crying hearing how French women applaud Gisele Pelicot every day as she walks out of court. #r4today
Everywhere around the world women watch & applaud her bravery too. She stood up for all of us.
Because the shame has to switch sides.

I think any woman who says “I am not a feminist” should have to append that with, “I just benefit from people who were and are.”

"Toitū Te Tiriti o Waitangi!". And then TJ backed it up in his farewell interview. Bless that man. (Note that this video is from a third party, TNT Sports. The official All Blacks accounts have clipped out the beginning. I had to clip the end to meet the bsky time limit.)

Stuff is reporting that Parliament grounds are essentially full with still thousands on the hikoi yet to arrive. I am so so proud to be tangata Tiriti & Pākehā today. Te Tiriti gives me a place to stand here in this whenua alongside tangata whenua. Thank you Aotearoa. PHOTO: Megan Jones

Today has been a good reminder to New Zealand, and hopefully to other good folks around the world:
Solidarity is not just a thing that you feel.
Solidarity is a thing that you practice.

This is a good time to remember the police said they were expecting 10,000, it's about time the officials stopped underestimating the feeling around this

Good time to remind folks of this Jon Stewart quote: “If you don’t stick to your values when they're being tested, they're not values: they're hobbies.”

Disabled people are often canaries in coal mine - anything that will harm or impact others tends to hit us harder & faster (climate issues, healthcare cuts, medication & supply chain issues)
Depending on others for survival is precarious
Include us in any resistance efforts. Don’t leave us behind.

Folks: A number of the most committed fascist trolls are coming over here and trying to create a presence, presumably bc Xitter will quickly lose its value as everyone migrates. One way to combat them is to use @numb.comfortab.ly 's list to mass block them.

Folks please don’t forget to ALT your images! The more new folks show up here the lower the adoption of ALT is and that’s a bummer cause it means not all Bluesky users can enjoy your images!
Here’s how to turn on prompts to remind you to ALT:

Hard-hitting polio advert from 1958. In the first half of the 20th century, polio was the leading cause of death in children and young adults. 1/7 #history #skystorians

A matter of principles
Misinformation about the Treaty of Waitangi, its language and its intent is at the centre of the Treaty Principles Bill introduced to Parliament this week.

Thanks to everyone who has shared this starterpack and made recommendations on who to add.
While there are several great urbanist starter packs out there, the idea behind this one is to include:
-researchers
-city planners
-orgs
-activist creators
-official activists
-etc
@me if that's you 🧵

Just a quick note to those new here, if you think someone's post is worth other people reading, repost it. Liking it does not have the same effect here as on the dead-bird site. There is no algorithm. That's one of the reasons we like it.

People act like love is weak, that to fight the powerful you must toughen up, discard your empathy
But your empathy can also ignite a fire in you, to pursue safety and justice for those who need it. Your love can blaze like an inferno, and fuel you to keep chipping away at injustice again and again
