1K Followers 3K Following Chronic Illnesses + Autoimmune Disorders R no laughing matter but my humorous posts will make U feel better for a while. #chronicillness #autoimmune #funnyIf you're going to say "no politics" then you have to apply that rule with some form of fairness and consistency. This is not happening. The bullies continue to bully Anyway, that's my only post on it, sorry. Hope it didn't bypass any muted words. #BoycottEurovision2024
The oppressors play the victim, while stripping the actual victims of all humanity, and removing their ability to express themselves. It's absolutely disgusting. The EBU should be absolutely ashamed of itself for this statement. Israel should be removed from the competition.
Even though their song is literally about the current genocide? Like I know they changed the words but we know what they originally were. We see this tactic throughout history, from the banning of tartan or Gaelic, to the way trans people are treated now.
Sorry for posting about Eurovision, but like.. this is the clearest example of how things are stacked against Palestine. Eric is Palestinian. Apparently him wearing his own culture's clothing is "political" but the country genociding his people is fine to compete?
“All performers are made aware of the rules of the contest, and we regret that Eric Saade chose to compromise the non-political nature of the event.” 🇸🇪🇵🇸 Eurovision organisers (the EBU) on Eric Saade, the opening act, for wearing a keffiyeh. 🔗 uk.news.yahoo.com/eurovision-org…
It is funny (not ha ha) that the Labour right talk about this stuff in terms of airy fairy principles when it is actually also really bad politics to repeatedly erode public trust. Similarly, it is simply poor strategy for a leader to alienate his MPs before he even gains power.
It relies on the idea the public doesn’t want a Prime Minister who has any values or interests beyond gaining power. It suggests leadership actively requires abandoning any shred of integrity. Perhaps. But what a cynical and grubby way to view politics and voters.
Today has certainly reinforced the notion that Labour must make moral sacrifices to gain power. For some, accepting an MP who downplays sexual assault isn’t a painful compromise - it’s positive proof Starmer is “grown up” enough for government. Remember: Integrity is naive.
I have cancelled my membership of the SoA. 🧵 I am a children’s author and I care for children. I write books about ordinary children who recognise and fight against injustice. It would be hypocritical of me to promote this in my books while (1/3)
I am particularly in awe of - and moved by - the moral courage and clarity of early career writers who have much to lose by taking a clear stance in an industry that barely tolerates minoritised creatives. Respect and solidarity to Nizrana and each and every one of you!

HIND’S HALL. Once it’s up on streaming all proceeds to UNRWA.
The keffiyeh is not a "pro-Palestinian symbol", it's a Palestinian symbol and the artist is Palestinian. If the inclusion of Israel wasn't enough to make you #BoycottEurovision then the explicit, racist suppression of Palestinian culture and solidarity should be. 🇵🇸

The keffiyeh he wore on his hand is a symbol of his Palestinian identity. It is that Palestinian identity that eurovision is trying to erase, not merely protecting from some political stance in favour of Hamas. You can see that clearly in the fact that symbols of Israel allowed

I'm new to the @fossilfreebooks community, and am so glad I joined. There is such hope in collective action. If you, like me, have been feeling lost and frustrated about the SoA's approach, please come be part of the conversation here.
📢An update from Fossil Free Books📢 After the Society of Author (@Soc_of_Authors) vote, we're updating our trade union strategy. We're evaluating the pros and cons of staying in the SoA, as well as considering forming a new chapter at a new union (1/3)
Let's be clear: The Jewish people are NOT committing genocide. Israel is! And, no, Israel does not represent all Jews (no more than every Greek supports Greek state policies). Invoking the Jewish people to defend Israel's genocide is a vile form of antisemitism.
Members of @ucuedinburgh stand in solidarity with members of @eu_jps at the encampment at Old College and call on @EdinburghUni to divest. #BalfourUniversity #FreePalestine
a conference asked if i wanted to supply some art from the @vagina_museum or find an artist for them but they have no budget. and they have the gall for their tagline to be "join the revolution"
