Refugee status becomes temporary in asylum shake-up
Adults and accompanied children claiming asylum will only receive refugee status for 30 months under the changes.
Vulnerable refugees, including children, will now only get temporary protection in the UK. Most migrants will have to wait 10 years to get permanent residency rights. Refugees could have to wait 20 years.
Who needs 'great replacement' racists when you got Labour?

that's over $10k for emergency cash support for BIPOC trans folks in Portland plus a combined $15k+ to keep ICE-impacted Twin Cities families fed and in their homes
sometimes the world is a really good place, actually

I thought I could save my little one's life as quickly as possible, but I didn't realize how incredibly difficult it would be.
My child's condition worsens every day, and I'm still far behind. I don't know why people haven't donated.
Please share this link with your friends.

Every time that person likes my stuff and it feels like a lil reminder that I haven't posted anything on my OF in over a month? I think I'm kinda ready to close my account. I'm just not all that invested in being sexy anymore. Most men are pests

30 Pikachu relaxing around a large green water hot springs there's tangerines oranges floating in the water. Some of the Pikachus are holding them or eating them. There's a extremely large Pikachu in the back resting over a walking platform. On that platform, there's Pikachu waiter holding a tray of ketchup bottle with some cups to serve to the other Pikachus. On the left side, there's a Gyarados statue pouring out water on top of a chubby Pikchu with two other Pikachus behind them nuzzling checks.

Happy PKMN 30!!

Police didn’t believe a 12-year-old who said she'd been raped. Then she hit record.
“If I didn’t find the evidence for them, I wasn’t too sure they would find it.”
THRILLED that @motherjones.com was nominated for two National Magazine Awards: one for General Excellence, which we won last year, and the other for Profile Writing, for @julialurie.bsky.social and @raeoflion.bsky.social's searing portrait of Taylor Cadle, expertly edited by @journokateh.bsky.social

‘The river won’: how campaigners in Brazilian Amazon stopped privatisation of waterway
Local river defenders force U-turn by occupying grain terminal operated by one of US powerhouses of world trade
"The river won, the forest won, the memory of our ancestors won."
Terrific piece by @jonathan-watts.bsky.social on the courageous and against-the-odds activism of Indigenous river defenders in the Brazilian Amazon.

9,600 redundancies at just 24 universities. Imagine what the picture is for the sector as a whole. This is the other half of the student loan scandal picture, which has been national news lately. Nothing at all from the government on a key sector effectively in freefall…

it's interesting how this is never said about chrisitian voters when christians actually are running around persecuting lgbt+ ppl.
christians do that all the time. muslims are mostly live and let live even if it conflicts with their personal religious views.

No Black inventions have been "lost to history.🤡" That would imply that this suppression is not intentional.
But it is intentional. It is a specific action taken by racists.
You only have to look at the intentional erasure of Black accomplishments that has happened over the past few years.

Q: Why does it seem like Black folk don't contribute much to society or science or history? Most inventions are from Europeans? Why does it seem this way? Don't cancel me!🤡

unbelievable how these ppl can be simultaneously racist and transphobic and just casually write that down
oblivious as to how it reads to the average person.
then they run around asking stupid questions like 'why is keir starmer so hated?!' bcos they don't see his bigotries as they share them.

I absolutely love how journalists are now just actively and explicitly stating that they don't understand what they are reporting on now.
Not even video game journalists are this forthcoming about how shit they are at their jobs.
