🧪 One of the groups I'm in does disaster relief, and we're mobilising for Hurricane Melissa.

Short version, go to www.zooniverse.org/projects/ali..., help classify images of the aftermath, multiple people look at each image, we make maps and send them to rescue workers!

Good morning!
We have finished classifying ports and airport in Jamaica, AND we're 57% of the way through the HAITI classifications! One final push, and we can get Haiti done 🥳 You can also check out this IFLS article www.iflscience.com/citizen-scie... to find out more.

We're a third of the way through Haiti!! It would be awesome if we could keep the momentum up 🧪
This is a fantastic citizen science project to help with the aid distribution in the Caribbean following Hurricane Melissa!

Very easy to take part and little effort, which translates to a huge help to aid teams on the ground! 🧪

Over 50,000 cis women have signed the @nionwomen.bsky.social open letter rejecting the narrative that trans women are a danger to women.

The real threat to women has never been trans women. The real threat to women is male violence.

I genuinely forget that some people just be here rawdogging their period, with only paracetamol and a hot waterbottle. It's been 10 years since I had a period that wasn't mitigated by hormonal meds (pill/IUD etc), and I cannot fathom having to experience that again. Y'all will survive armageddon

Your regular reminder that wes streeting's cornflakes are a gender neutral toilet
Speaking to MumsNet, Streeting said he did not think trans women should use female spaces and his team "is all over this".

He confirmed Labour will bar trans men from female spaces, calling their presence "unpleasant" and said trans women "impact on women's sex based rights".

Can’t explain it but of course they want to take away one of the only painkillers that’s safe for pregnancy, a condition that causes weird and unusual pains. these people WANT pregnancy to be a punishment and handicap. they want to control.

Small boats Farage spouting homophobia. You know because homophobia is now okay again. Thanks Gender Critical /s
Nigel Farage:

"Children who have two stable parents have a better chance in life... The most stable relationships, the ones that last the longest, tend to be between men & women... There's an awful lot of kids in the country not getting the kind of start... they deserve."

Farage has two ex-wives.

If keeping transphobes in “your party” is more important than solidarity with a minority being attacked then the whole exercise is DoA.

It’s not a real alternative to the same parties we already have: across the board transphobia with different levels of politeness.
My last hope for Your Party goes up in smoke as Zarah Sultana ‘welcomes’ Mark Serwotka.

His wife founded a Woman’s Place UK, a TERF group constantly trying to rollback trans people’s freedoms and he even wrote this lovely piece calling for ‘respectful discussion’ about our rights: archive.ph/iPb0L

People are melting down at a Tribune article about CHSD 230 considering adding Arabic to its language learning electives. I wasted time in the comments, which I normally avoid doing since it's useless and awful, but it led to possibly the funniest thing anybody's ever said to me about France.
