The suffering of people witnessing war through screens is nothing compared to those experiencing it, but our brains still process news of trauma as a threat, writes the Nerve’s psychotherapist @pperry.bsky.social. Here she shares 10 ways to cope with news of war in our social media age 🧵 1/12

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States, thereby justifying the need to “federalize” elections. We must anticipate it, with sadness and resolution, and not be surprised, if it happens. snyder.substack.com/p/the-desire...

Watching BBC Question time and I’m appalled that the best Zia Yusuf can throw at @zackpolanski.bsky.social is a silly comment about breast enlargement that only sounds bombastic or headline grabbing. I get it that you are rattled but get a grip man, talk about something that matters! What a waste

“Mummy, do you want a #tattoo?” she asked. I said yes. Moments later she wrote: ✨ my Hero ✨ No ink could mean more. A reminder that the #stories we tell ourselves shape how we feel & live. 💭 What’s a small #moment you’ll never forget? #mindset #resilience

#ShineNightWalk is in a few hours time. Preparing the dedication card has been very emotional as includes the names of warriors, survivors and unfortunately the heartbreakingly lost 💙 It’s my priviledge to carry all of their names with me when I walk 21km tonight.

This isn’t just a walk. It’s a #promise: to keep going, to fight harder, to never forget those we’ve lost. 💔 I promised to bring the #muscle if you brought the #wallet, and together we’ve done both! We’ve already raised £1,000+ for @cancerresearchuk.org 🥳 Read more…

Wow! In less than 48hrs we’ve raised £794 for @cancerresearchuk.org 💙 THANK YOU! You bring the finance, I’ll bring the muscle when I walk 21km on Sept 20th. Next target: £1,000 to fund imaging software for life-saving cancer research. Every £1 counts! Link in comments. #ShineNightWalk

When I was 7, my mum was diagnosed with tongue cancer at 38,the age I am now. Since then, too many loved ones have faced cancer. On Sept 20th I’m walking 21km through London at night for Cancer Research UK. 💙 Even £1 helps bring us closer to curing all cancers. Link to donate in the comments;

Anyone who believes there is too much immigration; just pause, watch this and think. Access to correct information has never been more expensive but @garyseconomics.bsky.social explains so simply without big words or jargon so we can all have access to it.

Kayane @kayanewatson.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

@anneapplebaum.bsky.social is there any institution or body that can track the damage they will do and report on it? I think this is essential to bring a bit of balance to the table as there are copycats among European figures who are willing to bring Trump/Musk policies over the Atlantic.

The government didn’t really spend £8 billion on ‘woke projects’, as you may have heard this week. That figure is the total annual budget for UK Research and Innovation. About £10.4 million was awarded to projects the TaxPayers’ Alliance has called “woke”.

Thanks @mrjohncrace.bsky.social for sacrificing your eyes and ears to endure the conference to write the article. “Time and again you heard speakers insist they were saying the unsayable. That their free speech was under attack. And yet no one is stopping them saying or doing anything.”

Kayane @kayanewatson.bsky.social · 12/02/2025

@natashadevon.bsky.social article reminds me of the move The Illusionist. She writes “It’s a way of making people feel threatened and vulnerable when they are not. A way to make those who are marginalised look as though they hold the reigns of power.” Nothing is as it seems. Great read.

@alastaircampbell2.bsky.social Most probably this “new template” will be copied in the UK by the next general election. Would be great if you and Rory can discuss the article and how we, “the common folk” can fight back.

This shows how easily “facts” can be made up and fed to the population by people with the loudest megaphone. Thank you @lewisgoodall.com @emilymaitlis.bsky.social for this episode as well as Andrew Norfolk for speaking up (again).

Who can argue that this is free speech? When has repeating lies despite knowing they are lies, had become freedom of expression? @mrjamesob.bsky.social please keep iterating this as people in the spotlight seem to be losing their backbones in mass.

“There will no longer be fact-checking on any of the platforms, Kaplan says, because there’s been “too much political bias” in the fact-checking programme. Facts are biased, apparently.” This is quite serious.

Did you know that our brains are biased by default? Biases are one of the reasons for this gaping polarisation. One way to combat it is by complexifying your allegiances, explained in this video. youtu.be/6L9UHONpSfM?...

Watching the latest episode of @thenewsagents.com about “woke milk”. I urge everyone to listen and pay attention to especially @lewisgoodall.com ‘s point around 19min into the episode. It’s essential that we create a safe space for debate by changing our tone. Excellent point!

There is some comedy around men explaining the plot of The Handmaid's Tale to its author, in response to her tweet. But this also reveals the tragedy beneath – of misunderstandings that point to the moral and therefore political vulnerability of the United States. snyder.substack.com/p/casting-th...

Last Friday, I was listening to @mrjamesob.bsky.social 's show and heard a few callers share their struggles with emetophobia. It was the first time I felt the urge to call in, knowing how life-changing the Thrive Programme can be! Even Bella Ramsey has conquered her phobia using this approach.
