Late to the party early to bed. PhD climate change, global equity and finance, also obsessed with sustainable clothing, books (all) and psychology (critical and consciousness). ADHD haver, basically a magpie. Opinions my own because no one else wants them

Help 19 year old Ruba support her family in Gaza

Ruba's phone has broken, making it so much more difficult for her to promote her fundraiser, keep in touch with me and her family, or do her studies. She desperately needs money urgently so she can get a new one as it is truly a lifeline. If you can donate please do x

It's going to be an ongoing propaganda victory for Australia that these articles keep getting pumped out with zero context or even a slight mention of the fact that Australia disproportionately contributes to why they're being forced to relocate

Like Israel's 'humanitarian aid drops'....

Good to see people turning scrutiny back on the part the media have played in providing cover for what is happening in Gaza.

This law was never going to survive contact with any determined resistance. So impressed with the brave people protesting in this manner.

Did you manage to cutely fall over while attempting to get the tree in your car? If not then no.

In the context of American shooters, she's right, it is rare.

Annoying people on the internet: How dare you infer what I definitely meant to imply because technically, TECHNICALLY, I didn't actually say it.

It’s funny how climate policy researchers all think their own thing is the most important thing instead of recognizing that it’s my thing

Driving a sofa to Birmingham this evening (don't ask) and it's interesting how motorway service stations fail to partake of the glamour that other travel hubs have; railway stations, airports etc. Just unremittingly grim.

Thanks for sharing - this is really interesting and is making me think in new ways about my study.

Fascinating - and has opened up some new ways of thinking about the differences I'm seeing when interviewing finance professionals in the UK and Ghana - thankyou!

I don't use Spotify but to prove I don't think I'm morally superior because of it, I will be publishing a list of the top recyclable objects I threw in the trash this year because it was more convenient.

Right? What a waste of the actress - I hope at least she gets some flashbacks.

Just started watching Cross on Amazon because I love Aldis Hodge but does his wife receive, like, the quickest fridging of all time? It's faster than Hughie's girlfriend in The Boys which has so far been the winner of the 'we really didn't want to pay this actress much' awards.

its really annoying me that my old kindle had 3g so I could download a book whenever/where ever I wanted but my new one does not so I have to wait until I have wifi like an animal.

As a child & adolescent psychiatrist, I regularly see youth with climate anxiety. #ClimateAnxiety is an adaptive response reflecting our connection to reality. Anxiety, in general, predisposes us to actions enabling effective responses to threats. Channel your climate anxiety into #ClimateAction.

100% - that looks beautiful but am I cycling over it by myself at night? No. No I am not!

If someone in your life suggests getting Morrison's Apple and Blackberry Crumble Cake on the basis that it is like getting 'two puddings in one' you should know it is an abomination and they are a fool.

I'm sorry, but as a Muslim, there are certain things about Christmas that I find unacceptable. And yes, they're right; I want them banned.

Sprouts can fuck off for a start. And the Mrs Brown’s Boys Christmas Special. Followed swiftly by the King’s message. Not to mention the yellow Quality Street.
