For students in Gaza, studying is no longer an individual activity, but a collective, grassroots effort to preserve education in the absence of formal institutions.

Demilitarize Brooklyn Navy Yard won its first victory against a drone company with ties to the IDF and DHS.

attie AI. Just block it. What's the worst that could happen? Your posts not being shown to people who don't follow you? Your pithy comments not being fed into an LLM?

This is Honey. She's a half-blind senior who survived a bear attack while protecting her family and farm. “She protected our chickens and our family," said her mom. "She’s our little savior." Honey has been treated for her injuries and is on the mend. We're awarding her our highest honor, a 15/10

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

ICYMI: Nearly every single trans person in the UK has been impacted by transphobia, report finds

If you are trans/NB/LGBTQIA+/ally etc. NICE is lookiing at quality improvement and open for consulting comments from folks until THIS THURSDAY April 2nd!!! Please share widely and say something and anything that will balance out the constant attacks on trans and gender non conforming folks rights!

WTF is @labouruk.bsky.social thinking? "Next week, the Addiction Clinical Care Suite at St Thomas’ Hospital, which has treated over 1,000 patients for alcohol and opioid dependencies, will shut as a result of central government funding cuts" shorturl.at/Bh7D7 This is absolutely outrageous.

This is entirely unsurprising. Musk will do anything for clout and has zero moral compass. If encouraging widespread abuse of women and girls makes him even richer and more powerful, he'll do it until he's imprisoned. We're living in a Bond film at this point, it's dystopian as heck.

Another Just Stop Oil jury trial has just been adjourned to 2027. Fact 1. All Section 7 jury trials bar one for nonviolent civil resistance have been adjourned in the 2 years since the Public Order Act came into law. Fact 2. Lammy is planning to try and rush through scrapping jury trials.

A petition to champion for young people 15-24 to also be given Menigitis B boosters as they are the second most vulnerable group after infants. www.meningitisnow.org/meningitis-n... #NoPlanBforMenB #petition #vaccinationsaveslives #meningitis Apparently it's not cost effective. OK.

@dropsitenews.com reporting 40+ civilians killed in apartment bombing on 10th March in Tehran. THREE bombs hitting it is no error. This isn't removing an oppressive regime, preventing a nuclear strike or liberating Iranians. It's just... mass killing of innocent people. shorturl.at/TDs0F #stopthewar

We've just updated our overview of environmentally damaging incidents in the Israeli-US war against #Iran. We've identified more than 300 incidents and remotely assessed 232 for harm. Read more about these incidents and trends here: ceobs.org/operation-ep... #IranWar #Iran 1/5

This is a cross party statement in solidarity with @greenpartyhan.bsky.social after what happened this weekend. Thanks to all the LGBT and Feminist organisations within all the respective parties for signing this, and it was amazing working with you all.

With the ongoing offensive assault on Iran, this petition and the issue of US bases in the UK is ever more pressing. We all become targets the way several Gulf nations have now been targeted as long as there are US bases, troops and weapons hosted here or in any nation outside the US itself.

This law is a dangerous attempt to deny transgender people autonomy over our own identities and lives. We'll see the state of Kansas in court.

On International Women's Day, we demand: ✅ Workplace equality ✅ An end to gender-based violence ✅ Educational equity ✅ Reproductive autonomy ✅ Protections for immigrant families ✅ Trans liberation ✅ An end to over-policing of women of color ✅ Protection of access to housing And so much more.

Rosa Gomez works hard for her constituents and was elected with a strong mandate yet Redbridge Council have tried to push her out. She was unable to safely attend council meetings as they barred her care workers! Discrimination in democracy. On #internationalwomensday we must all stand with her! ✊

Govt sanctioned trafficking essentially. UN legal and human rights experts have been condemning this practice for months. Mahmood's latest policy is further evidence that the UK has lost any right to claim it is a country upholding respect for the dignity of human life even here in the UK itself.

Some media reports claim many Iranians want the son of the Shah as a leader. The reports gloss over the 1953 CIA plot to depose Mosaddegh because of his plan to nationalise oil and thus prevent the UK and US ongoing wealth extraction. @georgemonbiot.bsky.social spelling it out see: shorturl.at/Rq6yp

See how Mahmood's talking points/policy are genuinely feeding into the far-right rhetoric of deporting UK born people of global majority backgrounds? It WILL keep normalising hate and discrimination against all of us who do not look European enough for them. All of us, regardless of citizenship.

Dear Shabana, Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

@lbc.co.uk reporting that Shabana Mahmood wants to trial giving each failed asylum seeker £10k to leave within 7 days, so up to £40k/family. Funny how the BNP offered much the same as their 2010 election pledge... Labour going full fash was not on my scorecard for 2026. ... shorturl.at/yea0O 1/

The Norwegian Consumer Council @ForbrukerrådetNorge is using Cory Doctorow's theory of enshittifaction to help alert consumers to how they can fight back when platforms and companies fail them. With the usual droll sense of humour. www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4Up...

CW: the video Zack responds to is deeply traumatic. Latest report says 150 dead and 95 injured at an elementary school for girls in Iran. You know, the same girls the far right always claim they want to protect? The same who are internationally known for their violent war mongering. </sarc>

"The distinction between death by drone and delivery of aid is being evaporated while we all sit around the same table..." - CMCC source. Any aid agencies who refused to share their data with the Israeli government have been banned from offering vital support in Gaza. Complicity takes many forms.

📢 Upcoming webinar! Join CND and a great line up of speakers for our next webinar looking at the links between nuclear weapons, war and racism and why we must unite against the far right! 📆 Tuesday, 3 March ⏲️ 7:00pm Register: cnduk.org/events/nucle...

Hannah Spencer: councillor, plumber, greyhound lover and the only candidate who can beat Reform in Gorton & Denton today 💚

Gorton & Denton by-election today. Hannah Spencer vs Reform vs Labour, whose last MP was expelled for writing racist/sexist things in a Whatsapp chat. Greens offer hope, change & unity for a better future. Reform will roll back workers/renters rights, create division & widen inequality. Vote Green 💚

"None of the dozens of voters I spoke to across the area over the course of two weeks in February had actually glimpsed Matt Goodwin in the flesh, much less seen him on their street or doorstep" Ah yes, a man of the people. Keen and ready to talk to constituents... shorturl.at/0QlsG Vote Green! 💚

Big landlord energy: "Residents... suspect their evictions are being rushed in ahead of the arrival of Labour’s Renters’ Rights Act, coming into effect in May. When the law finally comes into force, it will stop landlords from easily evicting tenants using ‘no-fault’ evictions!" shorturl.at/j1hVq

✅ Tactical voting organisations ✅ Doorstep data ✅ Constituency polling It's clearer than ever that it's Green vs Reform in Gorton and Denton. A vote for Hannah Spencer is the only way to stop Reform's hate and make hope normal again.

Great to see so many @southwarkgp.bsky.social members out isn't it? @greenparty.org.uk I'm sure Claire meant "football" team and wasn't pretending to be from the US. 💚😜😘

I misread this as being jailed due to 17 year old tweets. No they were jailed for SEVENTEEN YEARS for some critical tweets. Seriously. "Between 2021 and 2025, they tweeted about the Pakistan military abusing people..." Ironic as this is *actually* abusing people and geared to stifle any criticism!

After years of activist pressure, lawsuits, and bad press Ring made much needed reforms. Now, they’re pivoting back to mass police surveillance as a business model. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Unsurprising.Farage's ratings are dropping! He can't keep hoodwinking the public as to his genuine intent when it's increasingly clear that his status is linked to dark money, corruption and xenophobia. The UK public is clearer now on what he truly represents. public.flourish.studio/visualisatio...

Same quoted "London Post" is now also scraping content from @southwarklibdems.bsky.social webpage and posting it as local news. As soon as I scrolled to the bottom the 2Trom Media link and "Moscow Media Group" raised red flags. Companies House records confirm Russian director. shorturl.at/UKrOS

Brilliant news for Southwark! 💚💚💚 James McAsh joins us from Labour after recognising that his goals around climate change, social justice and standing up to corporate power are far more aligned with @greenparty.org.uk than with what Labour have been doing! 💚💚💚

CW for severe medical abuse: I’d encourage anyone with the emotional and physical bandwidth necessary to please read about what Queen Elizabeth Hospital in London is doing to this young woman, Savannah Victora-May. This info needs to widely shared and documented. #SaveSavannah

⚠️ Eighteen people in Texas remain in jail after being accused of “providing material support for terrorism” for participating in an anti-ICE protest. The case is intended to set a precedent criminalizing protest. Jury selection begins for a trial involving nine of the defendants on February 17th.

"For nearly three decades, Israel has informally capped the annual conversion of shekels from Palestinian banks at NIS 18 billion, a figure that has not kept pace with Palestinian economic growth." Controlling finances in the West Bank is one method of oppression few know about. shorturl.at/B4QDo 🇵🇸

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." —FDR, 1937

I think that @zackpolanski.bsky.social really understands the prosaicness and maladroitness of #Starmer.

“The process requires landowners to prove ownership in ways that are almost impossible for most Palestinians to do; if they fail, the land will be automatically registered as state land..” shorturl.at/EwBXG 😬

Pretty sure this level of obessive rabbitholing into hate is a direct consequence of his own platform's algorthisms and total lack of content moderation. For someone that certain people think is a genius, this is VERY telling of how little he actually understands about the world. shorturl.at/NKn2m

Last year, I wrote about Tommy Olsen of the Aegean Boat Report -- an organization that tracks illegal refugee pushbacks by the Greek authorities-- and Greece's campaign to cast him as a criminal for his watchdog work. They've now issued a warrant for his arrest. inthesetimes.com/article/gree...
