Today, of all days, please don't tell me how much you love the MTR, okay?
And if it was not bad enough: first aiders and many members of the press were barred from entering Prince Edward MTR station in the aftermath of the attack. Also, the MTR did not release CCTV recordings of the events, rendering it complicit with regards to what happened on August 31st, 2019.

After days of extinct birds, it's a nice change to draw a species still with us (though critically endangered), so this one is saying: I'm still kicking!

One of the propaganda lines Beijing uses is ‘tell good China stories’. I say this for no reason at all, why do you ask.

"Today marks the sixth anniversary of the 721 incident. At 3:45 pm, the police deployed tactical buses and assault vehicles outside Yuen Long Station"

More police at Yuen Long MTR to suppress commemoration than responded to the attack. 😒

☀️ Happy Summer Solstice! ☀️

Across centuries, artists have imagined the sun not just as a blazing sphere, but as a living presence: expressive, watchful, sometimes a little melancholy.

The elephant in the room for absences.
"media pundits & politicians adopt an attitude of utter cluelessness as sick days remain high around the world, pushing evidence-free narratives about parents refusing to take schooling seriously, & instituting ever-harsher punishments for absent students."
Long COVID is now the number one chronic illness afflicting children, surpassing asthma.
Yet we're refusing to use tools that could prevent recurrent infections in kids, like clean air or Far UVC, preferring to repeat propaganda about COVID's harmlessness

Long COVID is Now the Number One Chronic Illness in Children
Repeatedly mass infecting kids with COVID is not a public health strategy. It's a fast pass to declining population health

It's already June 12 in Hong Kong. For anyone who was in the city that day in 2019, it was unforgettable. I wrote about that day and the days surrounding it a couple years ago.
I won't tag people who may not want to be associated, but they were there.

I've seen images and videos out of Los Angeles involving tear gas in the past 12 hours or so that brought back memories of tear gas in Hong Kong in 2019-20. Here's a helpful 🧵out of Hong Kong for people get teargassed and/or anticipate this happening, or just being in the area(s) when this occurs.
'Wash Away These Tears. (And Also Pepper Spray)'

A thread of HK protests pamphlets on dealing with tear gas and pepper spay exposure, in rough chronological order,

I know I keep bringing this up but the reason bluesky keeps suspending Palestinians and people keep defending it under the guise of community standards is there's no way for a Palestinian to satisfy these people. It's a standard liberal racist move to set an impossibly high bar then declare anyone
