So excited to share that we're working to support special schools, pupil referral units and units attached to mainstream schools with climate change education. All learners should have equal access to exciting topics such as #sustainability. www.swansea.ac.uk/press-office... #EnvironmentalEducation

In high school, I created an imaginary land where the only boys allowed were the ones who treated us with respect (so, like, one or two). This is still relevant. New iteration of the University of Lyle: just women. Fuck all y'all.

The aim of #GwenerGwyrdd / #GreenFriday is to encourage people to think twice before you hit the sales and shop #BlackFriday. Just questioning whether you need or want something is the first step to consuming more responsibly. #BuyNothingDay

I love the Ignyte Awards and I cherish my finalist medals. This is a thread. Get to know this award and how it operates, because it's remarkable. (P. S. FIYAHcon 2021 was legendary. The highest of the highs.)

A student just told me they could only get through 20 minutes of #HotFrosty. This doubles my desire to live-skeet a viewing. Who's with me?!?!

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

I really want people to understand that this is just as awful and upsetting and invasive for a trans girl as it would be for a cis girl under the same scrutiny. Because when it happens to cis girls/women people get upset, but when it’s an actual trans girl somehow it’s “complicated.” It’s not.
