Honestly, very, very sad over her loss. The world feels a little emptier right now.

💚Rest in peace Dr. Jane Goodall💚

A truly incredible, revolutionary, inspiring, graceful woman. Long may she be remembered for the tireless efforts she gave to conservation and the protection of wildlife.

If ever there was a deserving candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize, she is it.

I quite agree. Therapy would do her a world of good but she's fallen into the "cannot be wrong" crowd.

I'm very thankful we have people out there like Emma Watson who exemplifies grace and humanity.

Aw shoot, I can't afford that right now. But I'll keep the tab in case I'm able to in the future!

I lived in a homeless shelter for two years. JKR does NOT speak for me.

I championed trans acceptance within my shelter, and wider community; JKR just spews hatred and bile.

It sounds great, I'd love to!

LOVE this! Journaling is so therapeutic and eye opening for anyone but especially for us with neuro-sparkly minds.

It boggles my tiny British mind. And the Trump regime is seeping into UK politics now as well.
Gandalf help us if we ever loosen gun control over here!

He's not even trying to hide his Trump playbook.

A hallmark of autism is having a (or many) special interest.

Wanna guess what mine is? It's autism.

Tylenol/Paracetamol does not cause autism.

Cancel culture ≠ Censorship

I'm sorry for his family, truly. Kirk chose a hill to literally die on.

If school shootings can't get their attention, maybe these CEO shootings might? #GunControlNow

Before I say yes, I calculate: how long will I stand? Will there be a place to sit? Will I have to walk far? What's the weather like? Is the pain worth it? Will I regret it halfway through? Is it worth the flare that's coming? Will I recover in a day... Or a week? Some may say I'm overthinking, but this is the math of chronic illness, and every yes comes with a price only my body can see.

For many, just simply going for a day out, or even just completing everyday tasks shouldn't require much energy or planning, but for those with chronic health issues, every detail matters.

RIP to the truly beautiful Baddy Winkle 🌈❤️ 1928-2025

Ok, lads, we've put up flags, terrified refugees, attacked the police ... But wages are still crap, services are still shit, rents are too high, health service is crumbling, trains unaffordable, food prices astronomical, and high streets all dead. Should we try the flags again?

At least the dumbasses and fascists are outing themselves, though...

Fantastic thread by Eddie. This is why history is important!

So I'm a woke lefty for being a logophile now.

I mean, I am a woke lefty but can we not come up with better reasons?

Love this! I stopped dyeing my hair when the grey came in. Ageing is a privilege, and grey hair is beautiful 🩶

Someone actually asked me: "where did they get the stats for this?" Like it was a gotcha 🙄
Brainless twatbags, indeed.

Let’s get to over 100,000 signatures so there is some pressure on Parliament to debate this!

Finally, for so many of us here in the UK, we may no longer be politically homeless. This is actual hope.

Yesterday, I published an article about yourparty.uk

I want to issue a public correction and a sincere apology for an error.

In that article, I said 500,000 people had signed up. That was incorrect.

It is now 600,000 — and counting.

Real change is coming.

An autistic person not wanting to be touched is not a problem to be solved. Your weird offense taken at the person not wanting to be touched is the problem. @pete_wharmby_books

This is common issue that arises day to day. Just because your friend or family member feels it's their obligation to be allowed to touch you does not mean you have to allow them to do so.
Respect your own boundaries.

Bowie and Elvis 🖤

The Crazy Train has reached it's final destination.

Goodnight to the Prince of Darkness.
😢🖤

It's that beautiful time of the year again when the #Perseids light up the night sky.

The last time I was both not working AND the sky was cloud free was 10 years ago! THIS is my year, damnit!
