The Magical Card game is excellent for distracting family on Xmas visits, I tried it out on my lot the year before last. You can play it drunk, everyone knows how top trumps works.
A reminder that Thursday is the last day before our Christmas holiday. If you were thinking of placing an order, now is the time! All orders placed from Friday the 19th will be shipped in the New Year.
Thank you everyone for your support and your love!

When unrest intensified in the region of India that my white missionary coloniser relatives occupied in 1946, they were repatriated to England *and* given decent state accommodation for their convenience. My grandfather wrote about it in his memoirs.
Julia Hartley-Brewer: Why is colonialism bad?
Me: “When Britain arrived in 1700s, India had 27% of global GDP. After 200 years of theft and millions starved to death, by 1947 India had 3% of global GDP, 90% living below the poverty line, a literacy rate of 17% and life expectancy of 27”

Imagine surviving that, the murder of your husband, fleeing to the UK, living an exemplary life, raising children and then paying £1,300 to be deemed not 'of good character' and denied citizenship. What an incredible woman to challenge it and force a precedent.

Woman who fled rape and torture in DRC wins UK citizenship case after Home Office U-turn
Victory thought to be first under new policy that normally refuses applicants such as refugees who entered illegally
A woman who fled rape and torture in the Democratic Republic of the Congo 18 years ago and was denied British citizenship because she entered the UK illegally has won her case after a government U-turn.
It is thought to be the first victory under a new policy whereby citizenship applications from people such as refugees who enter the UK illegally will normally be refused. She successfully challenged the refusal in a high court case. Continue reading...

Yesterday was Not the Voids penultimate meeting of 2025, we meet again at 3pm on Sunday the 28th December. We'll have survived a whole year. The candle was lit for everyone we lost to suicide and everything we've lost to deep dark places that feel unlivable.

It's absolutely miserable weather but I've just seen a scrappy looking mini poodle cross in a xmas jumper emblazoned with pom poms and tinsel trim so that's made it worth venturing out. Poor dog 🤣

So much this. Sustaining a community online requires resources, it's not wrong to make a living from living experience but it shouldn't be at the expense of other excluded peers. Money is tight, people will put thenselves in hardship for belonging.
And if a neurodivergent influencer sells subscriptions to a "community," you should probably be skeptical about any content they make regarding socializations and how they interpret studies that "prove" all neurotypical people hate you.

Brief: Demonic Karl Marx ATTACKS Private Property and DESTROYS Religion — Conspirituality
Matthew examines how Karl Marx has long been framed as a demonic threat to religion and private property — a tactic that sidesteps Marx’s actual critique of capitalism.

I stopped dying my hair with henna when I turned 40, it is very dark like my father's side of the family, rather than red like my mothers. I have sat with it for 18 months but I'm going red again. It makes me feel like myself, born ginger that way.
