“shame must change sides”
If you’re a survivor of sexual abuse… it is a tough time to be online.
It’s ok to take breaks. It’s ok to cry. It’s ok to rage.
Whatever you’re feeling is valid.
I like to remind myself what Gisele Pelicot said… “shame must change sides”
We’re going to make the abusers feel shame now.

Politicians have chosen to be in the public spotlight.
We choose intense scrutiny and everyone is entitled to an opinion. And that's right.
But how do these nasty digs about physical appearance serve anyone?
It's no wonder so many people - particularly women - are put off ever getting involved.

Plumes of smoke from Israeli attacks were seen rising over Gaza hours after Israel and Hamas agreed to the first phase of a ceasefire plan, brokered by Donald Trump.

Less than half an hour ago reports from Gaza told us Israel is bombing Palestinians returning from the north because they’d heard about the ceasefire.
My maternal line were Cohens. I used to be proud. Now I’m sad and angry. I categorically do not love Israel.

Trump: "I spoke to Bibi Netanyahu just a little while ago. He called, he said, 'I can't believe it. Everybody is liking me now,' meaning him. I said, 'more importantly they are loving Israel again.'"

The entire world is out in the streets protesting Israel’s illegal interception of the Sumud Flotilla- carrying aid to break the siege on Gaza.
We are done with this genocide. We are done with our complicit leaders. We are done with Zionism.

Israel illegally attacks Global Sumud Flotilla. Comms have gone dark, cameras are offline and flotilla’s boats were boarded by armed, masked commando forces. Yet another breach of international law attempting to silence voices against genocide of Palestinians.

It's the Autumn Equinox - the first astronomical day of autumn! 🍂
Crisp air on your cheeks...
The smell of damp earth.
Dew sparkling in cobwebs.
Cold hands wrapped around a hot drink.
A Robin singing as golden leaves crunch underfoot...

AFAIK there is no such organisation. We referred to ourselves as #antifa when I was still healthy enough to march and protest, short for #antifascist. I am indeed #antifascism and I am most definitely sick and probably a disaster. I don’t think I’m dangerous and I’m not a terrorist.
