2025's political climate is wreaking havoc on online dating. My time on the dating apps opened my eyes to this. I've written about this for @mashable.com in a story which includes personal anecdotes & interviews with experts & women with first-hand experience 💘📱 mashable.com/article/2025...

Thank you @mediatrust.bsky.social for a thoughtful and heartening roundtable discussion tied to your BRILLIANT Stronger Voices programme The initiative supports charities and underrepresented communities around the UK to strengthen their communications skills 💘

Also- Maya is new here and definitely worth following for social issues and progressive journalism

Discussions about the rise of misogynistic influencers are everywhere but most conversations fall short on solutions. This is why I was pleased to visit a youth centre in Wolverhampton doing vital work with young men to tackle this problem. More info in my story: observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

Proud to have worked on this lengthy investigation with @harryshukman.bsky.social @patrikhermansson.bsky.social & @dlhnh.bsky.social. We can finally name the elusive Nazi influencer 'Morgoth', and reveal his ideological contribution to the manifesto of the Charleston mass-killer Dylann Roof.

Please give Maya a follow and a repost, and a warm welcome to Bluesky.

Overnight, Israel bombed homes and tents in Gaza, killing nearly 100 people. Our government should have acted long ago to prevent this genocide by sanctioning Israel, ending arms sales, and upholding international law. The longer we fail to act, the more our complicity grows.

The UK's most tenacious reporter on women's issues is now on Bluesky!

WORD OF THE DAY: “SPIRITUAL FASCISM"

If you're looking for UK journalists to follow, I recommend @mayaoppenheim.bsky.social. She's written some great pieces about abortion, feminism, and women's health inequalities (among other topics). Solidarity to all the journalists, writers, creators and freelancers driven off X.

Make sure you give Maya a follow - awesome fabulous feminist journalist!!!

📣 FIRST POST ALERT 📣: I pretty much gave up on Twitter a while ago - tweeting less and less in recent years - but once it was a place which brought me joy (& some anguish). It was a place I could share articles I wrote, as well as my own observations about life: some tweets funnier than others.
