It’s 6 November, and you know what that means, don’t you? YES, THAT’S RIGHT. It’s the 156th anniversary of the death of Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s pet wombat

good morning gang, let’s all suffer together

The racism was bad enough, the subsequent lies, gaslighting and bullying campaign against the people who pointed it out was beyond disgusting

This clip from 2018 perfectly captures just how passionate @davetuller1.bsky.social is and how shocked he was by the way the PACE trial was defended. His crowd funding has just 1 day to go and he’s ~$10k from his target. I’ve just donated again so he can carry on doing his important work

Time for supper and goodnight for our donkeys and especially our birds who will now be kept in due latest government bird flu restrictions

I know a historian who argues that for many the pandemic began on March 11, 2020 as that was when Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks announced they had Covid, so I asked her if Hanks’s recent comments might convince people the pandemic isn’t over and the historian replied with a sad laugh.

Please, my data centers for my plagiarism machine, they are very sick

Disability Visibility at Teen Vogue was such an important way to raise awareness of the disabled experience. Alice’s column was heartfelt, vulnerable, honest and represented our community so well. Gutted (yet not surprised) to hear the Teen Vogue cuts impacted it too.

Reform’s outrageous success in gaining control of councils like Lancashire is a sign of the absolute failure of government and media to adequately represent them as the group of crooks and charlatans and weirdos that they are

Oh my gourd! Tyntesfield near Bristol is giving us pumpkin to talk about. Around 2,000 pumpkins from more than 50 varieties grown in the Kitchen Garden make up this year's autumn arrangement. Photos: Bob Fowler

Bonfire night used to be cold. You'd wear gloves and a hat and break the ice on the surface of puddles with your toes. Teeshirt weather these days. We are in deep, deep trouble.

The Motability scheme is not “low-hanging fruit” for public service cuts The Motability scheme is a lifeline for some disabled people like me but I hope you never need it @westenglandbylines.co.uk @lizziejones.bsky.social westenglandbylines.co.uk/politics/equ...

Really lovely. I hope she loves them too and just doesn’t realise that other people might.

4️⃣ Gov & media keep calling this a “sickness crisis” or “productivity puzzle.” But it’s not a mystery: Millions are ill because of a poorly managed infectious disease that hasn’t gone away. #LongCovid is a mass disabling event still unfolding. 🔗 www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

1️⃣ 🧵 NEW: The government’s Keep Britain Working report claims to tackle the UK’s crisis of ill health & economic inactivity. But it never mentions Long Covid. Not once. Not the pandemic either. That’s not a small oversight — it’s a fundamental flaw. Let’s unpack why 👇 🔗 www.gov.uk/government/p...

Labour in the pockets of fossil fuels. Utter shits.

My cousin who works out says he’s getting old routines that used to be easy are now impossible to complete so I sent him an article on how “Exercise intolerance” is “one of the symptoms of long Covid,” and in reply my cousin stated that he’s sure it’s just that he’s getting old.

Remember, remember The 5th of November, Sparklers and hotdogs and hats. Go watch an organised display, And stop scaring dogs, you twats.

I used to wonder if people would take this virus seriously again if evidence emerged that it increases the risk of heart attack and stroke, but now that researchers have found just that I find myself wondering what more it will take.

@petewishart.bsky.social: "When parties like Reform UK rail against the ECHR - that tells us everything we need to know about why it is so desperately required." "The ECHR enshrines our freedom of speech, our right to assemble, and to worship. It is everything that the populists despise."

It shouldn't need to be explained to anyone, so soon after the Soldier F verdict, why Irish people might not want to be socially obliged to donate to a charity committed to uncritically commemorating all British wars, including Iraq and Northern Ireland, and financially supporting their veterans.

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad "‘Will she live happily ever after?’ he said. NOT FOREVER. BUT PERHAPS FOR LONG ENOUGH."

This is deeply disappointing from Starmer. The UK *helped design* this 'TFFF' fund, designed to stop deforestation, and supposedly 'continues to back the fund' (in theory). But now isn't putting any money into it 🤯 How embarrassing for the UK. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Nigel Farage just voted to water down workers' rights. We were voting on the Employment Rights Bill - the biggest strengthening of workers’ rights in years. But of course Farage sided with the bosses. Again.

Why is no one talking about this? Where is the outcry - and most importantly, where's the action? Nations must finally work together to fight climate change. 🚨 https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2025/11/04/for-the-first-time-climate-models-show-the-15c-goal-is-dead

Please could you spread this?

Masks work - actors like Tom Hanks use them because they can’t afford to get sick - can you really ‘afford’ to get sick?

Oh wow did you hear about the mysterious fire next week

Hmmmm I wonder what could have happened shortly after 2019 that might have had an impact 🤔

Remember what I was saying about understanding the average voter?

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.
