The platform is becoming a cesspit for hate, misinformation, and marketing - and our overreliance on it for social, business, or promotion gives it way too much power (& data)

Are you back at work today? Here's my 'how not to melt into a puddle of overwhelm' tips 👇🏻
1: Focus on prep - use today to catch up, close off loose ends, declutter & plan for Jan.

2024's kindness advent: 24 notes for my son about why he's wonderful.
It's been so lovely to watch him open this first every morning (before chocolate!) and I've noticed an increase in his own confidence and sharing words of affirmation with others 🖤

8yo (way past his bedtime) *very seriously*: Mam, I have something very important and serious to ask you.
Me, worried he's been hurt, upset etc. etc: of course, I'll answer anything I can.
8yo *deep sigh*:...when you ride a camel, would you sit in front of or behind the hump?

Grant fundraisers, take note 👇🏻
I have been saying this to my applicants recently. I tell them to be as human as possible when they write their applications. Let me hear your voice, say things an AI wouldn't say.

To build a community, you need...
🤝 co-creation & collaboration
✨️ ethical & positive storytelling
🖤 to do it with positive intention
After 5yrs of growing community through @fundeverywhere.bsky.social, I've seen it's far better to release & support than own & control.

Imagine just minding your own business and having your space and energy interrupted by someone intent on harassing you.
And the irony!
And the irony!
Utterly staggering:
Man aggressively interrupts women filming a report about creating safe spaces for women.
A mother and daughter sharing their story on feeling unsafe had to stop as he became verbally aggressive, perfectly proving why such spaces are needed.

It's my favourite day of the week because I can
- go into hyperfocus & get loads done
- work when my creativity says so, not the clock
- look like a (comfortable) gremlin
- have a 3pm nap (<20mins, always)

Small charities, don't write off insights from large charities as being irrelevant - see it as a jump ahead in knowledge thanks to someone else's work/time/money.
But! Be sure to adapt to your own circumstance, and be aware free ≠ good
