Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

Does anyone know of any initiatives focused on improving PIP? Yet another eligible person within my community has been denied and the DWP's letters are extremely damaging in the lies they tell, let alone the support they are gatekeeping. What can we do? 🫶 #DisabilityCuts #WelfareSystem

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

I’m not a fan of the term ally. It feels like a consolation prize for not having a label that is traditionally othered by society? Why do we need a label for what is baseline human decency?

how other people treat you doesn’t say anything about you, it says everything about them. how you treat other people is who you are.

You are not alone, you should not have to deal with that on top of everything else, and one day I hope you’ll be able to look back and feel grateful it was temporary. One day I hope you’ll find family and friends who appreciate you and all your wondrous qualities.

You’re not missing out on anything either because let’s be real: nobody could have as much fun when you’re not there 😉 If this year there are people in your life who aren’t supporting you, people who you can’t be yourself around, or people who are treating you unkindly, I am so sorry.

Blossom @teawithhb.com · 23/12/2025

the people who love you would rather you rested, asked for help, or cry if you need to! The people who love you will be glad you’re making the effort to be with them! The people who love you want you to know you’re not ruining anything!

I think it should be to support businesses, the planet, vulnerable people and protect everyone. True success is not financial growth, because growth is not sustainable for the planet. True success is looking after ourselves and one another, do you agree? 🌟

Blossom @teawithhb.com · 20/12/2025

All these things we think are normal because we live in a society that doesn’t value health. Seems ironic to say in a time of a global pandemic, but it’s true! Our economy is not one of wellbeing, its purpose is to make money, and protect those with money.

Festivi-tea Day 4! Do you know what Internalised Ableism is? It’s a phrase that many of us have never heard of, yet all of us deal with every day. I invite all of you to think about what assumptions we have about health and how that impacts our actions. Hustle culture? Burn out? Living to work?

she gives as good as she gets, an arm and a leg. but it’s never enough, is it? she’s swimming upstream, painfully unseen growing desperate for recognition, or anything

Blossom @teawithhb.com · 18/12/2025

her light is flickering but it never goes out. pond-green eyes only when she cries so everyone mistakes them for brown she feels there is a metaphor in that, somehow on the tennis court, now, looking for fun ‘who’s girlfriend are you?’ sexism, it starts so young.

Back on the playground begging for affection in a too-big jumper a schoolbag filled with risotto from a food tech spillage it’s mufti day and the boy everyone has a crush on exclaims ‘I thought you were fat!’ she doesn’t know how to respond, glows uncomfortably
