A new study has found that almost half of children in Gaza wish to die, as a result of the trauma they have been forced to endure. Every single supplier of arms to Israel has blood on its hands — and the world will never forgive them.

It’s DWP £10 Christmas bonus day! Remember to spend it in a way that would drive the Daily Mail absolutely batshit. A bottle of Prosecco or 5% of a widescreen TV? Go wild!!!!

A few days ago, Accessorize refused to pierce @lucywebster.bsky.social’s ear unless she provided a GP note. Why? Because she’s disabled. And now she’s in the Sunday Times calling it out because it turns out, disabled women are not 5 years old - they are leaders. www.thetimes.com/uk/society/a...

I wanted a piercing at Accessorize. What I got was pure ableism
Employees ignored me, spoke only to my friend then demanded a doctor’s note because they had ‘doubts’ I could look after myself

Contrary to media hysteria, it is not cheating to seek help to navigate what’s an incredibly complex and often inaccurate benefit assessment. You’re not gaming the system - you’re surviving it.

I've met some incredible parents during this time. Brave, strong, relentless and unfortunately also often sad. We share our stories in grabbed in between moments. We're a club we never wanted to need, but there we are

One has their arms outstretched, another is holding a drink whilst gesticulating with the other hand, and the last one is wearing headphones, eyes shut, while holding a picture of a broken heart.

#HumanRightsDay Declan had severe learning disabilities and died in a mental health unit after repeatedly banging his head against a wall. Human rights of people with learning disabilities and autistic people are being breached across the UK. Shame. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
