Georgia O'Connor, U.K. boxer, dies at 25 after saying doctors 'gaslit' her on cancer concerns for months O'Connor announced her cancer diagnosis in January, saying, "Not one doctor took me seriously."

I’m so sick of these stories.

I’m exhausted, enraged & frustrated.

Misogyny in medicine kills. The patriarchy kills. The health gap kills.

We all have these stories. Some of us are lucky enough to survive, but many aren’t.

Tell your stories. Keep screaming until this never happens again:

Ugh. I feel this so hard and I’m so sorry you had to go through that. Yesterday, at 48, I was finally diagnosed with stage 4 deep infiltrating endometriosis after a almost two decades of being dismissed and gaslit by numerous OBGYN’s. I hope you’re feeling / doing better now.

RFK Jr: Autistic kids are a tragedy. They'll never pay taxes, never hold down a job, never contribute anything to society

Autistic kids:

Review of ‘The Disappearance of Shere Hite’ (2023) ★★★★½ "I am a little provoked by men at sea." Harry Truman famously once said that "There is nothing new in the world except the history you do not know" and that's been back on my mind for a couple of…

The Disappearance of Shere Hite, Nicole Newnham's barbed documentary chronicle of Hite's history and the chauvinist backlash in that banished her might be the best film of 2023 and was a truly startling and essential act of cultural archaeology boxd.it/5P5xqZ

Yep. I’ve been saying this for years — it’s how we got to where we are now. 90% of the GOP are creeps or just down right awful people who have been blackmailed to fall in line or be outted for the scum they are.

the tiny Italian deli where I get my fresh mozzarella and olives had a sign on the door that just said “closed for a few days” with no further information. gotta respect it honestly

Forever knitting to stay sane. Plus, making things for friends feels good.

Chewbacca is kinda hot.

I was scrolling…hoping to see this response.

Oval Office meetings are weak. I’d personally prefer, and believe there would be a better outcome, if Trump were to physically fight Zelensky.

I am not the first to say it but I do sort of see where JD Vance's mom was coming from when she traded him for drugs

Happy Birthday!🎂🎁🎈

Thanks bud!

Finally finished #knitting the Inclinations Shawl by Andrea Mowry. Bound off in two-color I-cord which took ALL MORNING but the end result was well worth it. I think the real champ here is the yarn though — many thanks to Feederbrook Farm in MD. 🧶🪡✂️

I want to learn to crochet specifically so I can make granny squares! Looking forward to seeing the final project.

Love your color palette!

Wow! I love this. Fantastic idea.

It’s fucking insane. You are not alone.

I work in roofing. No respectable roofer or estimator would be caught dead driving one of these clunkers.

In fact, no matter where we stand politically, company wide, the one thing that brings us all together is our hatred of the damn things.

“I went to the loom and beat my anxiety into submission. I wove like people have woven since the dawn of time. Creating surfaces from strands, improvising designs, dissolving my sorrow into the fabric of history.” ❤️

“I wove a cloth of rage, and when it was finished, I held a cloth of memory.”

I love this! Really beautiful piece, Sarah.

If you don’t already know it, you might like Anonymous Was A Women by Mirra Bank. As a knitter and fiber artist, that book brought me to tears many times. 🩷

Same! One of my middle school teachers made us watch it class.

Welcome to the neighborhood.

A square canvas. Only the top corner is filled with Harings distinctive figures, rendered in Lavender, the rest is blank.

Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990.
One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS.
