Lovely, thank you. Just wanted to check you didn't mind!
Headline: ICE came for their neighbor so these Tennesseans formed a human chain to protect him
I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article
Hi, I've seen someone on FB share a screenshot of your post with the results in, which I don't see here - so I wondered if you were keen not to have your name going viral. If so, is it ok to use a cropped version of just the DWP response (attached)?
Both China and the European Union have slapped retaliatory tariffs on the United States.
Trump's idiotic tariffs (and his general misunderstanding of how they work) have unleashed a new global trade war.
Buckle up — because In a trade war, there are no winners. Watch
Presumably this involves cracking down on disabled people even harder because we're not starving fast enough yet?
I don’t know, millions of people got in the streets a few days ago, the moderates are freaking out about their money, and the President of the United States is carrying out a wildly unpopular, intentional demolition of the economy.
Might be time for leaders with spines to actually get in the game.
Hostile political rhetoric stokes division and directly contributes to violence against migrants. We saw the outcome of the Conservatives' use of it last year with far right riots. Labour has to stop following the same path by demonising migrants.

Musk’s staffers fanned out across several agencies today, sending representatives to the Atlanta headquarters of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and meeting with the Labor Department to seek access to sensitive data.
Do you genuinely think murder and starvation of Palestinians started 8th October 2023? Because I can assure you it did not. Meanwhile, why do you think you know better than Amnesty, Save the Children and many other human rights organisations? And the ICJ, of course.
One person does not make a cure.
Please don't repost crap studies that make out long covid isn't important. We have ME just by another name, on the whole, and you should care about us too. I wouldn't repost studies that say ME responds to CBT/GET, because it doesn't. Same as LC. The same people minimise both illnesses.
Because the studies it has picked are of very poor quality, this is of very poor quality too. Summarised well here

What about when he lost to Clinton but somehow gained the presidency? That was more of a lead.
Today Guardian and Observer journalists are on strike over plans to sell the Observer to a loss-making digital start up and put its journalism behind a paywall. 🧵

I posted on the union page but what can I, as a housebound monthly subscriber, do to resist this change? I emailed the minute I heard and got some fob off cut and pasted reply.
NEW!!! Petition re COVID infections spread in healthcare settings et al. Please share if you would like to support it. "Direct @UKHSA to monitor, and report on, COVID infections that occur in healthcare settings through its routine surveillance programmes..." petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...
As a subscriber what can we do to support you? I've already emailed them to complain and got some nonsense reply.
Looking through your posts you seem to be satisfied that ME is a real illness but are consistently post articles minimising LC. Most of us with severe LC do have ME. We are no less ill.
This is a terrible article collating terrible biased papers and consequently drawing terrible incorrect conclusions

Why are you trying to minimise the very real damage done to people by covid? What's in it for you? As a previously very fit person who just bought a wheelchair and who has had conversations about wheelchairs with parents of affected kids and teens, I promise you there are many of us out there.
Maybe I'll do bed to 5m?
I ran #OSHA 2009-2017, and am now often asked what will happen to #OSHA in the coming Trump administration. In this longish🧵, I try to summarize what happened during Trump I and begin to predict Trump II, recognizing that this one could be wildly different than the last one. 1/
🚨BREAKING: Oil and chemical companies who created ‘The Alliance to END Plastic Waste’ have produced 1,000x more NEW plastic in five years than the waste they cleaned up.
It’s hard to imagine a clearer example of GREENWASHING.

One of my favorite couch gags of all time, Eric Goldberg's animation on this is beautiful and a pure delight to watch.
It's moments that make me glad that The Simpsons is still around, it really goes to show how this crew really loves and celebrates animation with these guest animator Couch Gags.
This is happening now in Beirut.
X, as horrific as it got, is a loudspeaker for the silenced. I am still there because of it. We must get intentional about circulating the horrors in Palestine, Lebanon, Sudan if we intend to make this the just alternative.
As soon as racecourse owners who run races where horses are disabled are required to pay for them to be retired, and for their upkeep for their natural lifespan (or an equivalent cost donation to a rescue centre when the horse cannot survive) this will stop. Hit them in the only place they care.
