It needs a whole ton of public pressure to happen, so Zack Polanski has set up this petition, if you wanted to sign and then pass along?

And
Switzerland has banned them as a national security risk.

Right now there’s a good opportunity to get their NHS deal scrapped - because ministers actually have the option to cancel it early. And that could kick start a whole domino effect that sees other contracts end too. 🙌

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

Hey, sharing this because I think it’s important. There’s this secretive US company, Palantir, being used by public services like the NHS. They’re linked to mass surveillance and human rights concerns around the world.

They act like they have things all stitched up because they want us to believe we are powerless.

The alternative is to focus on 1) uplifting and empowering ourselves and 2) taking time to be very gentle with ourselves and our painful emotions.

This helps the resentment to melt so we can act.

Being in office isn't the only way to change things 💗 We can start with ourselves and the people around us.

Over 120,000 people have signed a petition calling for a change in the law so that when MPs defect to another party they have to call a by-election

Interestingly, the highest number of signatories in Fareham (Braverman) and Newark (Jenrick)

Mark is such a kind and thoughtful person. He'd be amazing at the job!

We can be angry with our parents if we want to, or we can focus our energy on healing ourselves and these patterns that have been part of 'civilisation' for a very long time.

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

Tonight's super moon had a huge halo!

Since people find being hopeful and optimistic so cringe these days, let me remind you once again that there isn’t a single liberation movement in the world that wasn’t built on hope and optimism.

I hope you get a good night's sleep.

What a beautiful scene to meet after a day working in schools which seem designed to create stress.

Together, we can help our communities shift from drama and stress to peace and comfort for all.

You can find the full talk, which is amazing, on YouTube if you search for Joy Harjo Pioneers Keynote.

Joy is a beautiful example of a "realist of a larger reality" as @ursulakleguin puts it. It seems obvious that she is someone who lives in the heart and not in the head.

Visionary poet & artist Joy Harjo speaks of the transformative power of stories, of love. Each of us has beautiful stories to share, stories to live. 💗

Beautiful and wise writing from @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social on the importance of beauty and joy as we work together for freedom. 🌹🌿

Thank you for shining with kindness 💗

One of the reasons I left the U.S.A. for Scotland thirty years ago is because Scotland offers a wonderful, nonprofit healthcare service. Imagine how much healthier the U.S.A. could be!

I can see how you might think this. I've noticed that seeing the goodness in people helps to bring it out in them. Judging them, we know, can make things worse. 😢

I don't think any of us have, really. But perhaps we can be distracted from it. 🤔😇💗
