Thomas is deep in prayer thanking Mother Gaga for gifting us #Mayhem and he strongly suggests you do the same

By the way, ironically one way you can pave the way for building community is DEPEND ON YOUR FRIENDS. Don't just pay your own way everywhere. Ask people to share stuff. And make them feel okay about asking you for favours in return (and make sure that you are there for them if you can be).

it's actually embarrassing how much better i feel when the sun is out

Israel has chosen to mark the first days of Ramadan by blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza. Still, our government refuses to implement sanctions and defend international law. There is no other way of putting it: this is a resumption of genocide — and our government is complicit.

Scapegoating refugees has always been a deliberate ploy by governments to distract from their own domestic failures. Pandering to Reform UK will backfire — and vulnerable people will pay the price. End dangerous crossings by opening safe routes for fellow human beings instead.

just watched the V1 refuse to let a woman on at a junction and then run the red light??

Fascism doesn’t arrive in uniform overnight. It arrives with suited politicians, one piece of legislation — or executive order — at a time. My piece for @tribunemagazine.bsky.social to mark Holocaust Memorial Day. tribunemag.co.uk/2025/01/jere...

literally the worst possible ending for #TheTraitors wtf...

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

a fabulous thing to come home to @andchangepoetry.bsky.social

On this day in 1818 Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is first published, by 20-year-old Mary Shelley, the world’s first science fiction novel. “I do know that for the sympathy of one living being, I would make peace with all. I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine...

framing trans rights as in opposition to women’s rights is a neat trick given that trans rights *are* women’s rights. bodily autonomy, personal agency, opposition to sex based harassment, violence, and discrimination. these are trans rights and women’s rights. attacking one is attacking the other.

This fog has really got me to understand how the year with no summer enabled the creation of Frankenstein

my coworker told me I dress like a new yorker, and I am letting it get to my head

Happening now: Amazon Labor Union workers and supporters are rallying outside JFK8 on Staten Island ahead of a midnight strike due to Amazon refusing to come to the bargaining table following a Dec. 15 deadline. #STRIKEMAS

UK WRITERS: You need to fill in this consulation. Govt is very clearly looking to an opt-out model of rights licensing that puts all the burden on creators instead of profiteers. It's long and boring but this is important. www.gov.uk/government/c...

it's always morally correct to have tomato soup and a grilled cheese

Today, on #WorldAidsDay, we remember Princess Diana and her activism around HIV/AIDS. During a time when stigma and fear around the illness was high, she spoke compassionately about it and visited, shook hands and hugged patients. (1/4)

While Sir Kid Starver takes the brave, grownup decision to attack vulnerable benefit claimants again, worth dropping this little chart. (Also worth a reminder that Starmer consistently underdeclares official gifts given to him in office. Like a sort of... fraud declaring the benefits he's given.)

A year since we opened at @thepleasance.bsky.social London, Gwyneth is returning home for Xmas! Since then, we've had A JOURNEY! Trixie Mattel, Darren Criss and Cat Cohen joined, Lelans wrote more music for us and we've sold-out at #edfringe, across the UK, Ireland and the US! 🎟 in bio

"Lottery grants were intended to work in addition to public funding, not to replace it. In propping up crumbling arts infrastructure, the lottery has helped let governments off the hook. Funding for the arts should not depend on crossing our fingers." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

As the ICC finally issues arrest warrants for Israel’s leaders, here’s a promise. To those who helped facilitate Israel’s genocide - Western politicians, media outlets, and journalists: We will not rest until you are held accountable for the crime you helped commit.
