🌱 🐦 Lush times at @sheffieldtransformed.org this weekend... We had a dream team there running a workshop on 'How we can use community land buy-backs to get land justice' and the room was packed! 💥

Probably don't need this anymore 😳

Let communities own rivers, woods and moors! Write to your MP about the upcoming Community Right to Buy laws. See our template letter here - www.reclaimourmoors.uk/write-to-you... "Approaching Hartington via Sheen, Derbyshire" by Caff, released free of copyrights under Creative Commons CC0.

Just found out that a league as an imperial unit is about 3 miles. This makes 20,000 leagues under the the sea pretty good going considering the diameter of the Earth is only around 12,000km 😁

Lovely to have space for discussing community ownership of Moscar Moor on BBC Sheffield this morning… You can listen in from 8.12 via www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m... #reclaimourmoors

In case it all gets a bit much and you want some more fun in your life I can highly recommend John Finnemore's Substack 😁 open.substack.com/pub/johnfinn...

England's Community Right to Buy must enable communities to own environmental assets. Excellent to see this cross-party amendment to the English Devolution Bill tabled by @vikkislademp.bsky.social @simonforstroud.bsky.social @sianberry.bsky.social: publications.parliament.uk/pa/bills/cbi...

Was really happy to see @threeacresacow.bsky.social at the Crucible this evening. Some things you take for granted as being just the way things are, but seeing the history of enclosure, shows how recently we had common rights to land. Also a great crowd and some lovely communal singing 😁

Broomhall is a model for redesigning Sheffield www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/from-red-lig...

Is that the wonderful @katemossewriter.bsky.social writing in The Observer talking about End Sexism in School's new report into the History curriculum? 👀 New report out Wednesday - watch this space.

A great article about pockets in women's clothing, the history and the designers who champion them. www.bbc.co.uk/culture/arti...

In Bruges last month there was a little kid who'd lost his parents on a tour, but as soon as he started with his anguished cries of “mummy!” the crowd mobilised. Some to comfort him, others to look for the parents. They were reunited in minutes. Most people are nice. It's hard to remember sometimes.

Pyjamas with pockets naysayers : I found mine extremely useful when camping for my torch in a middle of the night toilet trip

My 13-year-old just recently got some black skinny jeans from the women’s department because fellow emo kids told him that was the best place to find them, and, oh, the validation I felt when he complained about the teeny tiny pockets

Thanks! That's so lovely 😁

This cause is close to my heart - please sign: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

🥾 Just shy of 200 people joined us up at Moscar Moor today to mark the start of the shooting season and united around our call for this huge grouse shooting estate in the Peak District to be taken into community ownership.

🛑 Stop grouse shooting 📣 Join our walk to protest against this cruel and environmentally destructive practice. 🗓 10.30am on Sunday 10th August 📍Redmires Reservoir Car Park 🥾 Hike ~3km easygoing trail to a meeting point where we will gather for speeches and music

Reassuring that when it comes to drawing a pelican on a bicycle, AI is still pretty rubbish 😂 simonwillison.net/2024/Oct/25/...

"McCardell insisted on putting pockets in women’s clothing; previously, pockets were reserved almost exclusively for men." She sounds fabulous 😁 www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

So proud that she's my MP

🎓 Members of our history and ecology group made a visit to Sheffield archives... 🗺️ We've got saucy historic maps of the moors and other info to digest before we start making beautiful propaganda! 🎶 I'll know my song well before I start singing 💬 Do get in touch if you want to reclaim our moors!

We’re in Westminster and we’re ready for our parliamentary debate on banning driven grouse shooting – you can watch along online at www.youtube.com/live/dVP_u8X...

I hear you!

✨ Hurrah for The Star! 🎩 Duke of Rutland urged to sell 'trashed' grouse moor 'to people of Sheffield' www.thestar.co.uk/news/environ... Reclaim our moors! Are you game?

Once again cannot express how much I love Naga Munchetty's 'time of the month' program on @bbc5live.bsky.social . So glad someone is talking about these women's health issues. This week IBS. With the rise in bowel cancer, people need to not be ashamed to talk about poo.

Sounds like a great opportunity and a really good cause

That's why I'm here 😁

Regarding Back to the Future, am disappointed that we not only didn't get flying cars, but that we got Biff in charge 😞

www.cnn.com/2025/04/09/s... This is a fabulous article on the history of pockets and the continued fight for them

I absolutely love this 😁

This is fabulous 😁

Hi everyone! We're @sheffield.digital and new to Bluesky. We'll be sharing good news, jobs, meetups, podcasts and more, straight from the city’s digital tech ecosystem. We hope to connect with like-minded people in #Sheffield and #SouthYorkshire. Please say hi and spread the word 😉 #introduction

Fabulous 😁 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is fabulous! Well done Georgia 😁

Have you watched Netflix's Adolescence yet? For us, it's a stark reminder that we need to end the invisibility of women and girls in the everyday taught curriculum in schools. Boys like Jamie exposed to violent misogynistic content online have no counter-narrative. #Adolescence

This sounds like a fabulous initiative to keep someone safe walking home alone strutsafe.org

This is my favourite. I will add in Citizen and conquistador too 😁

Annoyed at having come across another arbitrarily required title field on a form, I've decided to add more interesting titles on my contact form. I do not need to know your marital status, it is irrelevant. Mother of dragons? Archduke? Any you think should be on there? www.pocketsforwomen.co.uk

To mark International Women’s Day we’ve been asking our wonderful Patron and Author Supporter Claire Fuller why she was inspired to get involved in our work. Sign up up our newsletter to read the full interview - bumper IWD edition landing soon endsexisminschools.org.uk/newsletter/

Only 2% of GCSE pupils study a whole text or play by a female author - are the parents of these lucky pupils on BlueSky yet?

Anyone with kids at GCSE level? Are they reading any books by/about women? After quite a diverse selection of authors in the earlier years, for GCSE it's Julius Caesar, Lord of the Flies and Great Expectations. @endsexisminschools.bsky.social

I love that world book day promotes reading, but the whole costume thing? It's never the kids favourite book, it's the one that's easiest to find a costume for 🙄. I love that some schools do a PJ's thing. I wish ours did. I only think to mention it when I get the email a few days before the event 😳

Oh no! It's world book day on Thursday. Got to fashion a random costume that they'll only wear for one day again. It always catches me out 🙄

Could do with a bumper sticker "Now I'm glad I couldn't afford a Tesla" 😂

I think women could do with some pockets and sedition right now 😬

Now I've done what I can to help women find pocket-y clothes, are there other gripes that you wished were tackled that could be helped with the aid of a website? Is sportsbraswithoutremovablepads too niche? 😁

Hey just want to highlight a fabulous project @endsexisminschools.bsky.social . I took part in the research for the history curriculum, will be interested to see the results 😁.

It's world cancer day today. My thoughts are with anyone going through it at the moment. I was going to add my picture with the cold cap, but I'm not brave enough and I'm still traumatised by it tbh. So here I am part way through chemo with my fabulous dress with pockets that hid my picc line.

You know I always thought it was laziness, but surely getting a poo bag all the way up there has surely got to be more effort than simply putting it in the bin? 🙄 Points for athleticism at least 😂
