I like reading, crochet and posting what should be 'inside thoughts' on the internet
on Wednesday I have to go into town to donate blood (I am nervous with needles) and then to get back home I have to use a door right next to a wasp nest (I have a bad phobia). All in all this isn't looking like a great week for me!

Starting July 25, Bluesky will require users in the UK to scan their face, upload an ID or verify their identity with a bankcard.
I realize that platforms feel they have no choice but to comply with the government surveillance schemes, but shocking nonetheless.

Lovely humans,
I'm training to run a half-marathon for @scotrefugeecouncil.bsky.social in May!
I only started running last year so this is a big challenge for me - but I know the challenge for refugees to rebuild their lives is even greater.
All donations/shares would be HUGELY appreciated!! ❤️❤️❤️

Staff controlled surveillance doesn’t keep patients safe. In fact it opens them up to incidences like these.
The article doesn’t make clear how they filmed the footage but it highlights how such footage, for example from a body worn camera or Oxevision, can be misused

My partner went to his mum's to get our tree out of the loft (we put it up there when we thought we were getting evicted). He has returned with a tree. Is it our tree? No it is not.

Our group values the following:
Peer support: reducing how isolated people feel.
Gradually building the confidence to share knowing meetings are confidential
Reducing the sense of shame that society puts on us for being suicidal.

Some people wonder why I don’t shut up about sex work.
This is why.
Too many of my friends have been killed.
Often their bodies aren’t even recovered or they are buried under their deadnames.
This is why the civ trans community needs to support us.

Send love to the ones no longer with us, protect those still here.
SW is hard enough without having to worry about not making it to the next day.
Support our trans siblings and comrades putting their literal lives on the line in a landscape that is cruel and unkind 💖

November is the anniversary of my worst case of body lice. In winter months, homeless people share clothes and blankets. I got a blanket from a friend that had hitchhikers. I’m grateful to be housed and sober but many folks need clean, dry replacement clothes this time of year.

Today is a hard day. It is Trans Day of Remembrance.
About a year ago the trial of Brianna Ghey's killers began. Covering that trial broke me...
I am thinking not just of Brianna today, but the trans girls she tried to help, and the trans youth we have lost.
We have to fight harder than ever.
