I cannot stress this enough, and I am tired of saying it: British white people, everything you are seeing in the US is coming here and you cannot watch Eurovision or Great British Bakeoff or sign petitions and think you can stiff-upper-lip or ignore your way out of this.

Learn to be UNCOMFORTABLE.

Lots the nurse/doctor influencers who pop up in my feeds regularly have the flu right now. A few do not. There’s an interesting difference between the two. Guess what it is! 😷

This has honestly worried me for a long time - Native sisters, does your community have cultural pathways to address perimenopause and menopause? Have we had this conversation about how boarding schools broke our medicine knowledge for women's health, and how we're working to reclaim it?
And if you're Native, there's a chance the elder women in your community were sterilised and didn't know it, so never went through menopause, or they never reached the age to get to menopause.

The average lifespan in my oyate is 47.

There were so few people to ask about what was going on.
If they hadn’t burned all the witches and midwives back in the day, we’d probably know more about perimenopause and menopause right now. We know fuck all about a condition that half the population goes through because men are a bunch of plonkers*

The racist who used the N word has raised over $100k… which is three times what she would have made in a year working at Cinnabon

Meanwhile there’s tons of good people on here asking for a few dollars to eat, pay for meds or remain housed

Whew, my 'tisms do be 'tisming this winter. I believe this is a sign to slow my holiday roll and relax a little bit. Had some plans for fancy Xmas holiday spread - we Go Big at our haus - but I think I'm shelving a good portion of them.

And a weight lifts.

Goodnight from Ken MacLeod, yet again cursing the person who thought it would be a good idea to convert an abattoir into a recording studio. Goodnight from Tessa Luker, consulting the geomantic charts in Mundle’s Book of Witnesses hoping for investment advice. Goodnight from Hookland.

Reminder:

When you feel overwhelmed, you will choose a healthy way to cope.

Your body & mind need to rest & recharge. So, you will let yourself rest without judgment.

When you're struggling, you will ask for help.

Your feelings wont last forever.

You're stronger than you think

I'm proud of you

It’s been a month since Sally passed away. The house is quiet without her laughter, the pitter-patter of her feet. There is nothing, nothing, nothing—an emptiness filling every room and everyone.

Practicing kindness this winter for myself is difficult. I want to be doing things. Meanwhile, failed medication and new hormone trials are laughing and daring me to have a go, knowing full well I'll wreck myself for weeks.

I am grumpily trying to embrace what I'm calling "my Dude era.

We are where we are because some of you - white people, let's be real - are uncomfortable with using the word "racist".

I'm tired of trying to analyse why, but I no longer prevaricate. When a racist person is challenged and says "Are you calling me RACIST" I say "Yes".

Learn to be uncomfortable.

Baking was somewhat unsuccessful yesterday, but my fault for trying to bake with gluten-free flour in a storm (humidity levels, whoochile). Still edible speculaas, but terrible presentation.

I will give myself a pass, because my husband will still eat the stuff with a spoon.

"Why is Farage so popular?"

Because your country is racist.

"I don't understand why he gets so much airtime."

Because your press is racist and complicit.

"My own family believes his nonsense. I don't understand why..."

Because your family members are racist.

Stop trying to explain it away.

The reason I don’t post pictures of suffering in Gaza even though I’m asked to at times is because I lived through a decade of folk posting basically snuff films of Black people back when we thought we could convince society our lives matter. It convinced no one. But it did fuck up my mental health.
