Hello! It doesn’t cost anything to repost but it helps me spread the word about my small business. My online shop is full of bold & colourful prints, homewares, T-shirts and cards. I’m also available for freelance design work and art licensing. gailmyerscough.co.uk

Remember, it's "gosh, you've caught the sun," not "shouldn't you be in the burns unit at St Thomas's?"

Crispin Odey and the £79mn libel battle that wasn’t - www.ft.com/content/edbe... Nothing but awesome respect for the resilience of the FT and victims

In a world where there is a lot that isn’t working, we should celebrate the things that do. The mayor’s championing of openness and diversity within London and benefit of collaboration is always good to see. Acknowledge and celebrate the positives and move on to solve next problem!

Dr Éveline Hitti, chair of the emergency department at the American University of Beirut, said children were disproportionately being killed and injured in Israeli attacks. youtu.be/NtKV9UnGozA

Make some noise. Share this post. 🚨 The Israeli government has granted itself another means to dehumanise, suppress, and kill Palestinians. Israel is violating international law.

Revealing this early as it’s a good Good Friday. This week’s #SundayPix is an Easter-themed #SundayPixEggs Can be eggs, egg-shaped things, things that grow from eggs, things that are made from eggs or anything that’s eggcelent, eggstravagant or eggceptional. Get ready to scramble.

Yes, and whilst it is about astrophysics, it applies to my working world and I suspect many other people also. We won’t have senior experienced people without them being junior people doing ‘grunt work’ first.

Israel bringing back the death penalty that it had previously abolished *specifically* for Palestinians is an absolutely hideous crime

This devastating, emotional, 2-minute clip of the oral evidence from Professor Kevin Fong (@drkevinfong.bsky.social) discussing his hospital visits at the height of the second wave perhaps explains it best. 7/19

This is a story about the suffering that Russia’s war inflicts on the vulnerable - on everyone. From the dad keeping his family together, to the kids scared in the basement, to the terrified babushka open.substack.com/pub/htsf/p/i...

It is absolutely insane that the US appears to have targeted desalination plants first – putting them onto the board. Iran seems to have already retaliated against one in Bahrain. This is one of the most obvious ways this could spiral.

This should be a bright, blinking light catching everyone’s attention.

"President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth.” The Military Religious Freedom Foundation reports over 200 complaints across 50 bases that commanders are referring to the Rapture and Revelations in combat briefings.

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

“Figures compiled by staff in 8 major eye hospitals and 16 emergency departments across [Iran] reveal that at least 16,500-18,000 people have been killed and 330,000 to 360,000 injured…At least 700 to 1,000 people have lost an eye.” www.thetimes.com/world/middle...

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later. harpers.org/archive/1941...

Look, we all need something to cheer us up, so: happy Todger Strunk day to all who celebrate

If you randomly have this kids 2016 Barcelona kit in the back of your cupboard and can save Christmas in my house please get in touch 🤞

Innocent people end up in our criminal courts. Completely, terrifyingly innocent. And all that stands between them and losing everything is a fair trial. Politicians would do well to remember this when they tell us that justice is all about processing “criminals” swiftly.

Once more for the haters...

Two sleeps.

Jesus Christ. We go mad about one bloke we wrongly released, yet hear next to nothing about this horror? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

If using camps was about reducing costs of hotels then they fail, as cost more If it is about "community cohesion", they fail as still generate tensions If it was about "safe accommodation", they fail as they are shown not to be. Camps fail on absolutely every metric.

Unfortunately The i Paper is making several reporters redundant today, and my role is one of them. I'm very proud of the work I've published over the last three years, and I'm looking forward to continuing my reporting freelance. Want to chat? Drop me an email, text or DM.

My friend Sascha is a professional musician and he's lost a viola bow on the way to Heathrow. Please signal boost to help him get it back.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity. "To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

I need you to understand what this country feels like right now for those of us who look different. I'm sitting here, trying to plan for Saturday, make sure I don't even need to go to the corner shop for milk, like it's Christmas Day or lockdown. Why? Because I live near where Yaxley-Lennon will 1/

Afghan cultural norms, enforced even in emergencies by the ruling Taliban, forbid physical contact between men and women who are not family members. After Afghan Quake, Many Male Rescuers Helped Men but Not Women www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/w... FYI @aloner.bsky.social

BREAKING: ICE is sending Russian dissidents back to Russia. When the dissidents arrived in Russia, the Russian authorities were given documents relating to their asylum applications in the US which under US law are confidential. This seems to be part of a secret agreement between Trump and Putin.

3. I'm constantly struck by the extent to which people take their freedoms for granted - the freedom of speech, the freedom to vote, workers' rights, weekends, holidays, pensions ... - as if they simply fell out of the sky. They were achieved at great cost by our political ancestors.

NEW: The death shadow cast by Musk. “When U.S.-supported soup kitchens were forced to close, babies starved quietly, their mothers said, while older siblings died begging for food.” The world’s richest man did this to the world’s poorest children. Don’t ever forget.

Hello! I’m still very actively and urgently looking for new full-time work (or regular freelance), ideally in the charity sector, creative production, digital media, or community management. I’m completely broke and am going to lose my house very soon if I don’t find something. Wheeeeeee.

It’s World Press Freedom Day. A lot of journalists quite literally put their lives on the line to bring truth from the depths of repressive regimes. Here are a few to remember, who have been kidnapped, forcibly disappeared or held hostage.

Masked ICE agents snatched Rümeysa Öztürk off the street for writing an op-ed in support of Palestinian rights. We're working for her immediate release from detention.

Vaccines save lives. Pass it on.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.
