Today
when you see
crowds of people
in scary costumes,
remember:
those people
are not really monsters.

Tomorrow
when you hear
millions have lost
vital food assistance,
remember:
some people
really are monsters.

So sorry to hear of the passing of dear Nabil Shaban. A wonderful actor, good friend and probably one of the best Doctor Who villains of all time. He worked tirelessly for disabled actors and always brought such dedication and humour to whatever he was doing. #RIPNabilShaban ❤️

COVID-19 Brought About a Large Rise in POTS Cases

The study found COVID caused a surge in POTS, confirming a strong infection link.

Cases rose from 4.21 per month (Jan 2018–Mar 2020) to 22.66 per month (Mar 2020–Jun 2024) — a more than 5-fold increase in this once-rare condition.

Yeah, fuck this AI shit. This is not restoration.
If you're a #DoctorWho fan who cares about sensitive video restoration that preserves the integrity of the original images, and is concerned about the introduction of unintended artefacts from the use of AI, please watch this short video, share widely and discuss.

Covid is a mass disabling event that is still ongoing.

Over 20 million people have been affected.

The US is gutting healthcare and social supports.

They’re pushing a eugenicist agenda.

ICE is also disabling people, but we almost never hear about it.

Mass disability & fascism are a deadly combo
ICE Enforcement May Be A Mass Disabling Event
ICE have proven again and again that they will target the most vulnerable. Their aggressive actions may even become a mass disabling event. Why aren't more people talking about it?

@jairusgirl.bsky.social Just heard about your screenplay for 'Brave The Dark' via your newsletter. Congrats, that's such fantastic news after so many delays. The trailer looks terrific. You should be very proud. I hope it comes to the UK soon!

This could be seen taking root some time ago. Back at the beginning of 2024, the Greens overtook the Tories among young voters aged 18–29. The only age groups with a Tory/Reform majority were the ones over 60. Brexit and other far-right populist policies have nothing to do with the UK's future.

Spotify is running ICE ads. I went to cancel on mobile and saw that this isn’t allowed on mobile. They make you cancel on desktop. You think that’s gonna stop me, Spotify? I will erase you and forget you ever existed.

THOU SHALT CANCEL SPOTIFY!!!
