I'm resharing this thread because Makgosi is in dire straits this December. The court case has stood down until February and she remains unable to work, pay rent or buy food. I know everyone is struggling but any little bit helps, as does sharing this post. (PPal and bank details in next skeet.)
A thread about disability rights (and a request for mutual aid). 🧵
On Monday, my friend Makgosi will finally get her day in court, confronting her former employers in an unfair dismissal suit. More details in this report:

I wrote a ridiculous (and maybe also heartbreaking?) high fantasy anti-colonial revenge story featuring a gecko necromancer. It's up at Uncanny along with the audio version read by my brilliant friend friend Unati! Thanks to Zukiswa Wanner for the authenticity read on ZA folklore and representation!
The Uncanny Magazine Podcast 61B feature “The Geckomancer’s Lament” by Lauren Beukes, as read by Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo; “We Tried Beating Time to Death” by Abu Bakr Sadiq, as read by Matt Peters; and Lynne M. Thomas interviewing Lauren Beukes! www.uncannymagazine.com/article/unca...

Embarrassing. They're going to feel so stupid in 10 years when nobody's wearing dead salmon hats anymore.
Orcas start wearing dead salmon hats again after ditching the trend for 37 years
Orcas off the coast of Washington State are balancing dead fish on their heads like it's the 1980s, but researchers still aren't sure why they do it.

My mom's entire social life is Facebook groups with people from a debating forum that used to be called Minekey and was called iThink before that.
If you're gen x or millennial, odds are you have known some people online for *decades*. Across multiple now-dead forums, across vast gulfs of time in internet years. You've probably got a friend group that outlived multiple sites.
