Disabled DV Survivor. I do stuff about the atrocities happening in world, in irl, but this is where I come to talk nonsense about things that make me happy to restock my spoons. Trans Rights are Human Rights. No to military industrial complex. No to war.

Jog on. My passport doesn’t think they’re interchangeable.

I also want to know, was she in the β€œNorth of Ireland” or was she in β€œNorthern Ireland” and as an American who obviously voted for him, does she know there’s a difference? You can tell she voted for him because otherwise her answer to the the 1st question is β€œyes, and I’m so sorry”

That’s the track I’m having the most difficulty listening to, the layering of so many sounds/tracks has made me feel so overwhelmed the two times I’ve listened to it. Fascinated to hear what you can interpret from the lyrics

And he doesn’t care anyway, his flights are paid for, he has rooves over his head, he’s probably made a fortune with the military industrial complex. Why should he care about people being kicked off their SNAP not being able to afford to drive to work. Let them eat cake 😬

I agree - the thing that made me stay and become a citizen (originally on 2yr visa) in the 1st place is that because of its vastness there was a greater chance of finding my people. The various communities I’ve found are kind, funny, thoughtful. But the things being done in our name are disgusting

I’m so ashamed to be an American citizen right now. So far away from when I was naturalized after years of slog and cost, I chose to be American, I was so unbelievably proud (and I’ve been here 16 years so I knew it faults as well strengths). Absolutely disgusted in the destruction and deaths.

IDF Posts Its Own Proof It Bombed a Painting, Not a Helicopter The IDF struck an anamorphic helicopter painting in Iran, posted the video as a win, and handed Tehran a propaganda gift. Full breakdown.

How had I not heard before that the Iranians have been painting anamorphic helicopters and planes so the US and IDF waste bombs blowing them up? Last week the IDF celebrated blowing up a helicopter that was later found out to be just a painting. www.thedupreereport.com/2026/03/idf-...

Thank you. The colours are just a wonderful happenstance that the yarnster/stitcher group I’m a member of, most of them use happy colours and when they have a little ball of yarn leftover from their projects, they give it to me to make bears πŸ˜„

Trump blocks FBI terror threat alert linked to Iran war Top Trump officials ordered it placed on hold over concerns that it could show the domestic risk of the war and further erode public support.

The largest media merger in US history just closed. One family now owns CNN, CBS, HBO, and Warner Brosβ€”running on Oracle servers. Oracle just got new gov contracts for Medicare & Air Force AI. Your tax dollars fund the media that sells you the war. Follow. The. Money.

Enjoyed watching The Running Man, a searing satire about the risks of inequality, the merging of public and private power, and corporate consolidation that blends entertainment with news.

Brought to you by the Ellison family: owners of Paramount, HBO, CBS, TikTok, MTV etc. and soon Warner and CNN.

We think we’re not being told the truth now… this would, ok I don’t actually have words for how bad this would be for the American public knowing what’s happening in the world etc

I’ve actually been shocked watching the BBC news channel how little I knew about the VAST numbers of people that have been displaced in Lebanon because the Israeli government are telling them to get out of Southern border areas, presumably before a land grab

Thank you. I have a similar sized knitted teddy bear that I’ve had over over 50 years and I also know how much my kids liked little things, especially Polly Pocket, so if the kids have had to get out quick and maybe not able to take much, these are pocket pals that I hope will help a little.

All the yarn is given to me from fellow crocheters and knitters when they do projects and get to the last little bits that they don’t know what to do with - and any bits that are too short to use in a teddy, I use to stuff them. The fact that there’s no waste also makes me happy.

Everything is shit and feels hopeless *breathe* ….. but I’ve been making little teddy bears for a non-profit that helps people escape DV, just in case the kids (43,000+ last year) need a little comfort pal. And they make me smile, so just in case they make you smile too:

The difference between the news the British public are getting about the war compared to Americans is absolutely astounding. I’ve been watching BBC and Sky News and they are doing 2-3 times more news about what’s happening compared to US news about what 🍊and Hegseth has been saying

The only thing I will say, for a organisation that knows all about accessibility - there are way too many flashing and strobing lights that I just know would hurt 2 members of my family with epilepsy if they were watching

This is a wonderful opening ceremony - the venue, the lighting, the performers, THE SPEECHES. So inspiring. There’s no doubt I love the Paralympics and Winter Paralympics far more than the Summer versions

I’d forgotten that Russia (or USSR then) refused to hold the Paralympics in 1980 because they said β€œthere are no invalids in USSR!”

Correction - Iran were only due to send one athlete, but they haven’t been able to get to Italy because of the war

Dozens of accused child abusers have reportedly fled to Israel to avoid facing charges in the U.S., exploiting legal loopholes and slow extradition fights. Victims deserve justice that crosses borders.

Poignant (?) moment in the Winter Paralympics ceremony when the Iranian athletes have not been to attend because they can’t get out of their country, but the Israeli athletes are there. I wonder what reception the US contingent will get.
