Since then, the Israeli government has killed over 60,000 people in Gaza. Israel's own figures say 83% have been civilians. Disproportionate numbers of journalists, medics & children have been killed. 1/5 216683

Maddy Fogarty Hover @i-am-spottacus.bsky.social · 16/08/2025Today’s book recommendation: one day everyone will have always been against this, by Omer El Akkad. If you get the audiobook it’s read by the author. An important read. 010

Maddy Fogarty Hover @i-am-spottacus.bsky.social · 18/05/2025Saturday Night so I’m… living it up with a book Come what May by @lucygobag.bsky.social My mum: “Lucy easthope’s new book is out!” Me: “I know, it’s arrived. I’ll bring it to you this summer when I come over” My mum: “any copy that comes here isn’t leaving, just so you know, I’m keeping it” 131
Maddy Fogarty Hover @i-am-spottacus.bsky.social · 26/04/2025It really feels like the world is going to the dogs right now. Gaza, Syria, Sudan, Ukraine; the US sliding into fascism and dictatorship; the regressive UK Supreme Court judgment on our trans friends and colleagues. Speak up where you can, donate to relevant charities, support your fellow humans 010

The 21st day of the 3rd month, aa people with Down syndrome have 3 copies of chromosome 21 instead of 2. We wear “lots of socks” to celebrate. Bright, funky, mismatched (not odd!), because different is good, and because chromosomes look a bit like socks 😊 216226
Maddy Fogarty Hover @i-am-spottacus.bsky.social · 21/02/2025So excited for this book! Preordered! 111
Maddy Fogarty Hover @i-am-spottacus.bsky.social · 06/02/2025A book review! Poor, by Katriona O’Sullivan. I wish that every teacher, doctor, social worker, every adult in a position of responsibility who’s ever been unkind to a struggling child, every kid who’s ever bullied a kid like Katriona, would read it and feel shame. And then take action to do better 010
Maddy Fogarty Hover @i-am-spottacus.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Hello! Let’s see how this works then. I’m more of a lurker on this sort of social media anyway, so I’ll hang around and enjoy everyone’s tweets. Oh and recommend me a book! 150
