One year ago today, this image of Anas Al-Sharif amidst the aftermath of a particularly horrific Israeli attack on a school in Gaza went viral.
Israel recognized the anniversary by killing him, along with four other journalists:
Mohammed Qreiqea
Ibrahim Daher
Moumin Alaywa

Today I booked in my first round of the HPV vaccine (via a private pharmacy - £185) and also completed the free NHS-provided postal STI testing kit. Bit grim, those lancets, and I couldn't quite fill up the tube with blood (drink water!! I guess) but it's DONE. 💪

Think a lot about a guy I know who went to Cardiff museum on acid, it got a bit much but he managed to find a quiet dark room, then suddenly the lights went up, a giant turtle hanging from the ceiling filled the room, and a booming voice started a monologue with "YOU KILLED ME"

Happy Pride month, all! Way back in 2018 I made these galaxy pride flags. They were shared many thousands of times, featured on Vice, and even made their way onto book covers and into video games.
Here are the original ones I created (in no particular order!) so Bluesky can have them too. 💙
