friendly reminder that you didn't waste your year. any moments of happiness or comfort. any small accomplishments, they all matter. this has been a really hard year, and simply surviving is something to be proud of.

The displaced civilians in Gaza are suffering through horrendous floods. They need us now as much as ever to survive.

Please give to my dear friend Tasneem so she can feed her children and stay safe and dry. No amount is too small. And give to others. β€οΈπŸ™

NHS β€˜facing worst-case scenario’ as hospital flu cases jump 55% in a week Number of people in England being treated remains at record level for this time of year with daily average of 2,660

It’s a bad flu year but its not too late to get your flu vaccine but don’t delay as they take a week or so to kick in. Supermarkets with pharmacies have the vax too.

hey @safety.bsky.app why am I unable to mute terms unless I submit my face to your database for age verification? surely disallowing non-verified users to mute distressing or triggering terms is counter to the supposed objective of keeping young people safe?

A message tonight from my dear friend Tasneem in Gaza: "We're drowning, Alex, because of the rain."

The civilians are facing unimaginable hardship. They rely on our donations.

Home - Not in our name As women we reject the narrative that trans+ people are a threat.

Women, in particular, know how fragile rights can be - how hard-won progress can be rolled back if we do not defend it.

That’s why this #HumanRightsDay we say clearly: Trans rights are human rights. Trans rights are women’s rights. Our struggles are connected. Protecting one protects us all.

The Holdovers
A very different film but I really like it. Little bit of comforting Christmas, some found family, a dash of following your dreams, all wrapped up in a whole lot of loneliness. It's a lot. But I recommend it

Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.

Enough to power 23 million homes!

U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

Who is the new team? How did the reboot happen? Appeals to patience are well & good, but would be nice to have some immediate transparency, considering that the old company owes substantial royalties. (I'd guess that whatever assets the new company acquired, it did not take on any liabilities.)
