I really needed to see this thing I just saw on Tumblr:
Write it badly or it'll never be written
Write it badly or it'll never be written

The vet industry is ripping off pet owners. Think what private healthcare providers will do if they get their hands on the NHS.
Most of the media reflects neither reality nor public opinion. It reflects the views and demands of those who own it: the Oligarch Class. They employ editors and journalists to channel their demands and sell their fictions. Hence the endless attacks on net zero.

Every minute, forests the size of football fields disappear—driving animals toward extinction.Say NO to habitat destruction. Wildlife populations have declined 73% since 1970 (WWF). Their home is our shared planet. Protect it. 🌍🐾

Arrogance is believing we can endlessly take without giving back. Arrogance is thinking technological cleverness will always save us from ecological collapse. Arrogance is assuming nature is a foe to be battled,rather than the very system that gives us life.
We are the wave. We are the ocean. We are the clouds, the earth, and the sun. We are connected to all things. The water we drink, the food we eat, contain all of these things. They are a part of us and we are but a small part of them. We are no bigger than that. May your day be peaceful. 😊

A German soccer federation executive committee member says it's time to consider a World Cup boycott because of the actions of U.S. President Donald Trump.
Trump on NATO:
"The problem with NATO is that we'll be there for them 100% but I'm not sure that they'd be there for us, if we gave them the call".
We did get the call on 9/11. 26 NATO members sent troops to defend the US. Hundreds died doing so. It was the only time Article 5 has been activated.
Having basic needs met is a huge factor in determining health
If everyone had shelter, food, healthcare & a basic income…society would be healthier
Instead the billionaires & corporations hoard wealth and blame us when we become disabled or homeless
Poverty is a policy choice. Not a moral failing
Delighted to hear that The Invisible Doctrine, the film by @peterhutchison.bsky.social and @lucas-sabean.bsky.social, is being offered free to view on YouTube for the holiday season. It's all yours! youtu.be/gR4eSEetKP0

Your worth is not determined by your job, your bank account or your ability to produce for capitalism.
Disabled people have worth.
Children have worth.
The elderly have worth.
The homeless have worth.
Those in power want you to de-value others so you will accept atrocities.
Image shows a group of MPs and campaigners, including Sian, stood on grass with the Houses of Parliament visible in the background, holding signs that read: SATs fail SEND kids.
We need to scrap SATs!
Primary assessments are making kids sick with worry, stressing out parents and causing active harm, particularly to SEND pupils.
Govt must listen and rethink these counterproductive tests.
Of all the bullshit takes you’re going to see today, this is the peak of the dung pile.
Poverty and disability often go together
Most people have no idea how fast their life can change
One accident or illness is all it takes
Losing your health can quickly wipe out your finances, your contingencies and your support network
It’s why we need robust social supports.
Once again, no one chooses to become disabled.
It’s not a moral failing or something a person can “try harder” and avoid.
You are not owed our medical history or an explanation.
You are not the arbiter of who’s disabled “enough”.
A rail worker credited with saving multiple lives during a mass stabbing on a train has been named as Samir Zitouni.
The 48-year-old's actions on the Doncaster to London King's Cross service on Saturday evening were described as "nothing short of heroic
The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is
- more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week)
- more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages)
- more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)
The Brits have such a way with words. You know. Those things with letter that help you define and say stuff about things.

Carl Sagan.
Daughters are no longer raised to be wives. They're raised to be people. And some people are really not okay with that. They're not being taught to sacrifice themselves for the comfort of others. Not being told that marriage is the finish line. Not being conditioned to make themselves smaller to be loved. They're being raised to earn their own money, choose their own timing, live alone if they need to, and not apologise for wanting more. They're building lives where love is welcome but not begged for. They're questioning things their mothers had to silently accept. They're choosing healing, not just habits. And for people who are used to obedience, that kind of freedom looks like defiance.
