Brings back memories from when we developed this poster. Very proud of this and, especially, the campaign we made it for

Daily insults and abuses, theft of land, constant fear of violence against you or your family (with impunity), institutions stacked against you on your own land by settlers who deny that your people even exists—we in the US ought to recognize all of this and hate it for what it is.

If you're having someone proxy vote for you in the upcoming UK elections, then they need to know that *they have to vote in the place you were last registered as a voter*. Make sure your proxy knows this, and try to pick someone who lives close by to make it easy for them.

NZ Postgrad Students - is there someone (preferably in NZ) who you've heard speak recently that you'd recommend other postgrad students/ECRs get a chance to listen to?

Please join in making our politicians know stalking is wrong & must become a crime. Our current laws are out of date, making it hard for victims & survivors to get the protection they need. our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/pr... via @actionstation

This Instagram account has been confirmed by inside sources to be run by Tristan Tate (Insta refuses to ban it). Should go without saying, but all female models should STAY AWAY from this freak.

I'm reposting this because it's just astonishing — This is just one of MANY Resistance ambushes — AJ finally covered it, mainstream may follow suit eventually — Resistance fighters patiently WAIT for Israel troops to ADVANCE — Israel has ZERO vids of successes — The Resistance posts DAILY victories

There's a lot of respiratory disease out there at the moment - some of it is Covid (orange), a lot of it is other viruses. It's likely we are close to winter Covid peak whereas flu will probably peak later in the winter. Not too late to get your Covid + flu vaccines!

Here's a transcript of @edyong209.bsky.social's heartfelt & empathetic opening speech at the #UniteToFight2024 conference on #LongCovid and #MECFS. I have no reach here, so it'll probably disappear in the void again. But if anyone sees it, please read and watch his talk. padlet.com/katha1970_/p...

Covert Israeli government influence campaign targeting US lawmakers has it all: • fake accounts on X, Facebook, Instagram powered by ChatGPT • focus on Black lawmakers and Democrats in particular like Hakeem Jeffries & Raphael Warnock • fake English-language news sites featuring pro-Israel articles.

we (certain parties excluded) don’t bear personal responsibility for this. but as humans with consciences, we are responsible for doing our damndest to stop it. you don’t have to be the one to chain yourself to an elbit systems door, but we can work together to end this. to keep the living alive
