Sinn Fein's claim last night that blocking the cancellation of the concerts at Boucher was anti-GAA is anti-young people. Yes the blocking of Casement is anti-GAA, sectarian discrimination but to claim Boucher as the same dilutes the issue.

Week 2 of my MSc Psychology and feels so good to be learning again. Also started a Life Drawing class last night. Was definitely the only beginner in the room with limited drawing skills but I got something on the page and getting out of my comfort zone was really enjoyable.

Really excited to say I will be starting a part time MSc in Psychology in November. Lost myself for a while there but the fog is lifting. Really excited to combine my historical work with liberation psychology aimed at community healing for overcoming the drug war ✌️ Reading suggestions welcome!

More of us in the North should be angry that our politicians settle for posters over policy reform. We are all being exploited by the peace process' reliance on prohibition to continue to destabilise communities and create harms and therefore jobs.

"What is happening in part of east Belfast today is...reminiscent of what was happening in Chicago during the Prohibition years" Not just resembling. Exactly the same thing. 21 yrs later we still have prohibition and we still have paramilitaries.

The drug war legitimised the continuation of violence in our society. This is not peace! It's just another war in which state violence breeds paramilitary violence and both traumatise our young people.

I’m over trivial issues getting in the way of the work and I’m over being polite. Our politicians need to stand up for us and call this out! This isn’t the peace we were promised. This isn’t what living in peacetime looks like. Young people should not be getting shot on our streets! #stopattacks

Just your annual reminder that ‘needle spiking’ is an urban myth. There’s been no proven cases (outside of the spy world) I can find anywhere in the world. Public and authorities need to focus on the real spiking threats eg drink spiking.

Another hard part of dealing with recurrent pregnancy loss is how it impacts other needs. I havent been able to take ADHD meds for almost a year now and the impact that is having is profound esp as post trauma my ADHD got extensively worse. Your identity starts to crumble in this rollercoaster.
