I’m getting a lot of requests for help with fundraisers. I’m unfortunately an incredibly chronically ill person and don’t have the capacity to help personally with fundraisers. I can’t do advocacy work in the way I used to, but I’ll link to some helpful threads.
Shocked that my absolutely shite MP has this viewpoint. The man who thinks more jobs with weapons manufacturers in Glasgow is a great idea and who gives the most generic shit responses to emails and comments.
A reminder that one of Wes Streeting's junior ministers is talking enthusiastically about 'cashing in' on NHS data (www.ft.com/content/0531...).

Pettiest reason for cancelling a tattoo. Found out they were a Disney gay and a swiftie 😩 I just can’t. My dark soul would be repelled out of my body.

A very sweet friend of mine passed and I’m devastated. She deserved more time. She deserved better healthcare. She deserved to see her niece grow up. My heart hurts. This year has been so full of loss and I am so tired.

My wee photogenic demon babies. So far today they pissed on the electric blanket, which my poor wife discovered when she put the blanket over her during a zoom meeting, they clawed through my top drawing blood, and almost knocked Beef’s ashes off the dresser. Tiny shits.

This explains why British Library staff are on strike
The union says - managers take home up to £170k with £15k bonuses, while staff offered below-inflation pay rise
Meanwhile, frontline staff take abuse for the massive data breach - which managers failed to foresee

Alice Wong was one of the most effective people challenging the Whiteness of disability communities and its many flaws, but who believed fiercely in us as a community, in disabled people as oracles.
Alice brought so much to so many of us, it’s hard to measure the kind of gratitude I have for that.

It is really hard being part of communities where loss and grief are so fucking common. And they shouldn’t be. It feels so heavy today.

It's wild seeing people act surprised that Keir 'Alpaca attacker' Starmer is authoritarian. The guy that deported someone for stealing ice cream. The cunt so servile to america that he tried having an autistic man sent to Guantanimo for trying to find out if aliens existed.
