Shabana Mahmood casually saying they're gonna take migrant's jewellery off them has got me thinking about that scene in Schindler's List where the Jewish family wrap family heirlooms in bread and swallow them.

What the fuck are we?

Removing asylum support. Seizing belongings. Deporting entire families, including children.

Labour are not just paving the path to a Reform government. Reform may as well already be in power.

This government has no moral compass — and it should be ashamed of its inhumanity.

Amnesty International has slammed Labour’s “divisive and cruel” asylum crackdown, warning that it marks a dangerous drift toward treating fundamental human rights as optional depending on who you are.

Wildlife photographer Dylan Coundley-Hughes captured breathtaking drone footage of a fin whale, the world’s second-largest animal, surfacing off the coast of Cornwall. Spotted in Falmouth Bay, the whale appeared alongside dolphins, tuna, and seabirds.

The Daily Mail has run a number of attack pieces on Violet Affleck after her incredible UN speech advocating for COVID protections including masks and clean air.

These attack pieces including a poll on masking in medical facilities. The result? An overwhelming 76% of people support requiring masks!

💊 Two studies found limitations of Paxlovid for protection from #LongCOVID

🩸 Long COVID may increase menstrual bleeding

👨‍⚕️ A new clinical trial is testing Mitoquinone in combination with “exercise rehabilitation” (which may be detrimental) for LC

This week's research updates: bit.ly/46EXPcu
Five sheets of Paxlovid pills in an array, with a filter on the image making the sheets appear wobbly. The text reads, "The Sick Times. Long COVID Research Updates. Two recent studies found limitations of the drug Paxlovid for protection from Long COVID. Long COVID may increase menstrual bleeding. A new clinical trial is testing Mitoquinone in combination with “exercise rehabilitation” (which may be detrimental) for Long COVID." Two recent studies found limitations of the drug Paxlovid for protection from Long COVID, contrasting prior studies that suggested the antiviral drug might help prevent this disease. The first study analyzed electronic health records from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) RECOVER program, including over 150,000 participants who got COVID-19 after April 1, 2022. The authors concluded that their study “found that Paxlovid treatment during acute COVID-19 had no effect on subsequent [Long COVID].” A second retrospective cohort study from the CDC of over 800,000 participants found that the drug only slightly helped participants who were over 50 years old. It did not meaningfully protect adolescents or younger adults from Long COVID. Long COVID may increase menstrual bleeding, according to a new survey study published in Nature Communications. Researchers in the U.K. surveyed over 12,000 participants (including about 1,000 with Long COVID) and found a link between Long COVID and abnormal uterine bleeding, which may be a result of hormone changes and increased inflammation in the uterus. The authors stated that COVID-19 and Long COVID may predispose people who menstruate to iron deficiency and anemia. “Reassuringly, ovarian function appears to be maintained in this group of regularly cycling women with Long COVID,” the authors wrote. A new clinical trial is testing the supplement Mitoquinone in combination with “exercise rehabilitation” (which may be detrimental) for Long COVID. The study aims to recruit 300 people over 50 years old at the Veterans Affairs Salt Lake City Health Care System, in Salt Lake City, Utah. The supplement, also known as “Mito-Q,” targets mitochondrial function and will be given to some participants who undergo exercise, while others will be given a placebo and exercise. The study does not mention post-exertional malaise (PEM) on its clinical trials page; studies have shown that muscle abnormalities worsen after PEM in Long COVID. Many advocates and leading researchers have criticized Long COVID trials focusing on exercise as an intervention.

Black-and-white photo of short haired, tabby, cat standing up outside, looking toward the camera. It’s expression seems very focused and serious.

they're going around and documenting flags that aren't at half-mast for Charlie Kirk
Vance Patrick @vance_gop Hey @Chase, why isn't your Barclay Circle Branch in Rochester Hills, MI complying with federal and state orders to lower the flag in honor of Charlie Kirk? You've had since Wednesday to lower it... Adam Gillen @Adam_M_Gillen I went on a personal crusade around Hastings and got several flags lowered. Had to have others join me in getting the Hastings ACE Hardware to lower theirs, they said "Lowering the flag would be making a political statement." Before they finally caved under the pressure. 7:58 PM • 9/14/25 Donna Harvey @DonnaHarve55152 This is a Shell gas station in Goldsboro NC. Who didn't bother to lower the flag...

Great to discuss the flagrant disinformation peddled at the Reform conference by Malhotra with @garethiacobucci.bsky.social

As @LawrenceYoung11 et al agree, the 💩 re mRNA vax and "turbo cancer" (anyone taking that name seriously?!🤦‍♂️) is pure, insidious fiction designed to ⏫️ hesitancy.

It's a common antivax tactic:
Attack mRNA vax as a "novel tech" (which it really isn't), link ❤️ problems, cancer, 5G, and all the rest.
Then, sit back, hands up as vax uptake plummets across the board.

We are in a massive Covid surge right now.

No one will tell you this, because they’re still trying to prop up the “Covid is over” narrative.

Every day we learn more about the harmful long term effects of repeat infections.

Get your vaccine (if you can). Wear a respirator. Clean the air.
