I am lucky to have a compassionate support system. But they still struggle with this part of it:
"Living with PEM means making impossible choices every single day. Work or social life. Basic functioning or relationships. Today’s activity or tomorrow’s capacity."

Okay, here we go.
Health & care staff are no longer allowed a Covid booster, but they're still expected to look after COVID+ patients.
NHS/govt is reneging on its duty of care. Staff will become unwell, and patients too will suffer.
You know what to do

Dismal framing. Every aspect of most asylum seekers’ lives is controlled & paid for by the Home Office. They can’t work, are told where to live & have no autonomy or dignity. So they aren’t *choosing* to use taxis & don’t need to be “banned” from doing so. The HO just needs to get its act in order.
Government to ban asylum seekers from using taxis
The ban is set to come in February and any exemptions will have to be signed off by the Home Office.

This week, I talk to @tamaranopper.bsky.social about abolition in practice — how people learn through engagement with state violence, what gets in the way of developing shared analysis, and why abolitionists need to take recruitment and counter-recruitment seriously.

I don't plan to see Zootopia 2 because I strongly disliked the first film, but I am curious about people saying it's a critique of settler colonialism? Did they do any better this time?

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Muhammad. Muhammad was an accountant prior to this but his workplace was destroyed and his home severely damaged. He’s hoping to leave Gaza with his family including his daughters Iman, 5 and Lian, 6 so that they can get a better education.

Ah, I see the government has broken the portal for Access to Work claims, right before the end of the month when people will be submitting their claims. Wonderful.

It’s darkly funny how a decade of attacking “safe spaces” in favor of some sort of social Darwinist fantasy where the strong devour the weak has consistently progressed to the vigorous defense of special enclaves for masculinity.
