I really hear you. It's refreshing to finally have a viable left option, and hopefully it can undo many people's apathy towards politics.
For far too long we've been stuck between the right and the far right - this is real hope!

Thank you! You're doing fantastic work, and I'm so happy to no longer feel politically homeless!
LET'S GO! 💚

I've always been a Green in my heart but never thought they were a viable option in reality.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social has elevated the #GreenParty exponentially and for the first time in my life I have officially become a member of a political party.

Honestly, very, very sad over her loss. The world feels a little emptier right now.

💚Rest in peace Dr. Jane Goodall💚

A truly incredible, revolutionary, inspiring, graceful woman. Long may she be remembered for the tireless efforts she gave to conservation and the protection of wildlife.

If ever there was a deserving candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize, she is it.

I quite agree. Therapy would do her a world of good but she's fallen into the "cannot be wrong" crowd.

I'm very thankful we have people out there like Emma Watson who exemplifies grace and humanity.

Aw shoot, I can't afford that right now. But I'll keep the tab in case I'm able to in the future!

I lived in a homeless shelter for two years. JKR does NOT speak for me.

I championed trans acceptance within my shelter, and wider community; JKR just spews hatred and bile.

It sounds great, I'd love to!

LOVE this! Journaling is so therapeutic and eye opening for anyone but especially for us with neuro-sparkly minds.

It boggles my tiny British mind. And the Trump regime is seeping into UK politics now as well.
Gandalf help us if we ever loosen gun control over here!

A hallmark of autism is having a (or many) special interest.

Wanna guess what mine is? It's autism.

Tylenol/Paracetamol does not cause autism.

I'm sorry for his family, truly. Kirk chose a hill to literally die on.

If school shootings can't get their attention, maybe these CEO shootings might? #GunControlNow

For many, just simply going for a day out, or even just completing everyday tasks shouldn't require much energy or planning, but for those with chronic health issues, every detail matters.
#ChronicIllness

Before I say yes, I calculate: how long will I stand? Will there be a place to sit? Will I have to walk far? What's the weather like? Is the pain worth it? Will I regret it halfway through? Is it worth the flare that's coming? Will I recover in a day... Or a week? Some may say I'm overthinking, but this is the math of chronic illness, and every yes comes with a price only my body can see.

At least the dumbasses and fascists are outing themselves, though...

Ok, lads, we've put up flags, terrified refugees, attacked the police ... But wages are still crap, services are still shit, rents are too high, health service is crumbling, trains unaffordable, food prices astronomical, and high streets all dead. Should we try the flags again?

Fantastic thread by Eddie. This is why history is important!

🧵 Everyone needs to know that leaders who deploy the military against citizens does not end well for them. In this thread, I'm going to share historic and modern day examples. Pull up a seat.

So I'm a woke lefty for being a logophile now.

I mean, I am a woke lefty but can we not come up with better reasons?

Love this! I stopped dyeing my hair when the grey came in. Ageing is a privilege, and grey hair is beautiful 🩶

Someone actually asked me: "where did they get the stats for this?" Like it was a gotcha 🙄
Brainless twatbags, indeed.
