I am one of the exes of Antifa. Always was “too much”, but Antifa and I parted amicably so that’s nice

Thanks for these updates. I’m still baffled about a “free speech area” - did i miss an explainer about why there’s a designated place for this?

I love walking on the ripples because its past time impacting my present gait and that makes my brain happy

Beautiful work. It’s me, a purported self-organised organism, who is a disordered hyperdimensional reflection of my social environment.

And lizards too? If you have ever been chased by one you know the fear is real!

Lil goanna, a young one, is almost camouflaged in the leaves so sighted people are probably checking out the alt text too! It’s the end of dry season here in Darwin so our leaves are nearly all brown and blend in nicely with the wildlife.

Actually just realised i had scrolled past Gouldian Finch and now i am on a mission.

NT govt is allowing construction on their habitat here in Darwin.

Maybe if they are the bird of the year it will help!

The integral awesome power of autism for staying on the topic ✊🏼 why i believe neurodivergence has always been vital for human evolution from the start.

Greta Thunberg spoke publicly for the first time since reports emerged that she was mistreated while in an Israeli prison.

The activist arrived in Greece alongside other members of the Global Sumud Flotilla after they were deported from Israel.

Sonans @sojaya.bsky.social · 2d

Greta reinforcing the message is next-level activism after their imprisonment. Not to make it about me (ha) but genuinely i cried with relief and admiration.

And for the first time in my atheist life, perceive how religious leaders arise. The full-chested wholehearted love i felt at her fist ✊🏼
