Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

Late to the game but going to watch White Lotus - does each series stand alone?
Do I jump in with Series 3 or would it be better to start from the first series?

This is a phenomenal list of specific, actionable things you can do right now. Pick one and start there--I guarantee it will feel better than doing nothing. 👇
The Egyptian pro-democracy activist Wael Ghonim said,
"The power of the people is greater than the people in power."
This is a checklist of things you can do, probably should do, resources, ideas, ways to move forward.

Young women are sexual beings - by criticising Sabrina Carpenter or anyone else’s choreography, your message is that female sexual feelings are shameful and wrong. Please stop.
