Just be aware, Jensen Ackles does not tip sex workers when he goes to strip clubs (this is a mark against him)

Feel like tonight's gonna be good

Why? There is a case toge made for putting distance between UK and US, and pulling out of NATO is (IMHO) a good thing

What we must all remember from the Gaza genocide is that the international system is rotten to its core and needs to be completely replaced.

We cannot accept a system where Western governments and leaders can commit genocide and war crimes with total impunity.

It is clear that with this ceasefire Western governments and media want us all to let bygones be bygones.

Never. Israel committed a genocide, we all witnessed the most obscene violence it is possible to imagine, and we need to see the perpetrators locked up in The Hague.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Basma. Basma was a makeup artist and did eyelash extensions before the war. She lost her home and the tower she worked in was recently destroyed. She has 4 children Tulin, 9, Malak, 7, Kamal, 5 and baby Maryam who is just 9 months old.

Fucking get people watching the local hotel hosting refugees so you can rapid reaction any fash activity. Put refugees welcome stickers up *with a fucking contact on them* so you can build your network and speak to your targeted neighbours. Get off your arse and fucking do something!

Why are we even debating whether to play football against teams from a country committing genocide?

I love the fact that people are trying, and this is an area where we do get opportunities to do so we can help each other get better. It just sucks how often folks try to reinvent the wheel rather than learn from the movements that have come before

If you're trying to galvanise people into action, you need to lower the barrier to entry. Fully agree with this!

Niche annoyance. Propaganda that doesn't do anything to mobilise people. Like, NGL, I've been in ridiculous pissing contest sticker fights with fascists and just put the most provocative thing I could over their bullshit because I like annoying fascists, but mostly it should be *for* something.

Dear brothers and sisters,
I'm not used to asking for donations.
But the situation is extremely painful.
Children in need of milk, a destroyed home, etc.
A donation of $1 will make a difference toward achieving a dream.

Agree, we all definitely need to be helping spread the word. So for anyone who needs to hear it; on this webbed site reskeets are more important than likes

Loads of indie media is on our side. And many Brits get their news from social media these days.

What we need is Brits sharing posts and spreading the word. A fight back against the establishment from our armchairs.

At a local No Kings rally near Innsmouth, Massachusetts, *every* protester showed up in an inflatable frog costume.

They must be from a different supplier than the Portland frog's costume, though. Bystanders describe the costumes as more like fish-frogs, "batrachian," with an odd, loping gait.

As Francesca Albanese said an Israeli ceasefire is "You cease, I fire"

they/them might be giants ☭ @babadookspinoza.bsky.social · 4d

“Israeli” ceasefires only ever apply to the other party. They’ll continue to kill whomever they want, whenever they want until they are stopped. They see themselves as occupying an altogether different moral plane than their enemies, like any colonizer.

Tweet from Quds News Network @QudsNen
BREAKING: Three Palestinians were killed after Israeli quadcopter drones opened fire on residents inspecting their homes in the Shujaiyya neighborhood, east of Gaza City.

Sweden has waiting lists that continue to balloon and there's no political will to do anything about that

The ‘Transit’ gender clinic in Spain has a 3 WEEK waiting list! 😳😳😳

It covers a population of 8 million, (equivalent to the population of Scotland & Wales combined, or 1/7th of the population of England) It has a total of 43 staff, a majority of whom are part-time, working 6-7 hours per week!

Trans health waiting lists are a political choice

I’m just back from an awesome trans healthcare conference in Norway (blog on that to follow). Here I wanted to share information from a presentation by the founder of the transit trans health…
