At our demonstration today, I'm holding a placard stating
"I support
Palestine.
Action
must be taken."
My aim is to highlight the absurdity of the government dictating what can and cannot be said by peace-seeking people

What really worries me about forests in a rapidly changing climate is that trees live a long time, and can't move

How can any individual be adapted to conditions when it germinates, and conditions decades later when it's mature?

We'll see a big shift to fast maturing species, I think

Cartoon, black and white. Two women standing at a makeup counter in a store. Woman on the left, dark hair and slacks, is looking at a possible purchase. Woman on the right, light hair, scarf, short dress with tall boots, is speaking and looking a little fierce. Caption, “For Mothers Day, my mom would like the activism of her youth to not be for nothing.”

I watched my Mom fight racism (segregation) in the South, for the right to not be harassed, to have a checking account, a loan, to wear pants to work, the right to choose. I pray that her spirit will live on in me, that together we will build bigger and better on the foundation our mothers laid.

There is nothing better than witnessing the climate activism group you've been a part of for five years being co-opted by left-wing grifters and populists. /s

Anybody who still holds itT's core values is welcome to ask me for support. Good luck.

BBC Projected national vote share. Reform: 30%. Labour: 20%. Lib Dem: 17%. Tory: 15%. Green: 11%. Scotland has a choice. Independence. For people. For planet.

BBC Projected national vote share. Reform: 30%. Labour: 20%. Lib Dem: 17%. Tory: 15%. Green: 11%. Scotland has a choice. Independence. For people. For planet.

🔴Scotland didn't vote for 14 years of Tory government
🔴Scotland didn't vote for Brexit
🔴Scotland isn't voting for a Reform government

Yet as part of the UK we face the disasterous consequences of all three.

As an independent country, a fairer, greener Scotland is possible.

The Supreme Court ignored trans voices. I’m ashamed of what our law has become | Good Law Project The Supreme Court’s decision to exclude trans voices has harmed trans people – and harmed the fairness of their ruling.

'A blistering yet controlled performance': Manic Street Preachers at the Barrowland How do you know you are at a Manics gig? Because before anything else we get the Welsh working-class academic, writer and socialist Raymond Williams.

Delighted to have spent my birthday at the Manics gig last night. It was incredible.

The angel memorial called me over, but I stayed for the pigeon.

I am absolutely fed up with the bullying and bullshit at my work, so today I chose to touch grass in a local graveyard.

It was a beautiful day to feel sunshine on my skin and moss with my fingertips. Being amongst the dead is helping me reset my priorities ... and work isn't one.

I had my first ever pedicure today. It was an intense sensory experience. I laughed, dosed off into sleep, and gritted my teeth through it. There was a lot for my body and brain to process.

My feet feel amazing though.

So I tried watching "Wicked". I gave up on it with an hour to go. It is not good. It might even be bad. I don't get the fuss, and I have lost any interest in seeing the stage musical.
