Yesterday I visited two Shell oil spill sites in the Niger Delta with Ogoni climate activists of @FoundationLekeh and local community leaders. It was the saddest and most enraging thing I have ever seen.
A lot of you have been shocked over the level of hate in the replies on our ‘trans women are women’ tweet.
Please remember one thing…
There is currently over 7000 likes, which vastly out weighs the haters…

Chemo starts Fri 28 Jul. 7 treatments in 3-week cycles. Had the pre-chemo ‘chat’ today to find out about side effects. Would be very grateful for prayers. Feeling blessed by so much love surrounding me. But this is SO. MUCH. And I’m squeamish 🤦♀️ #bilateralbreastcancer#chemo
I never post my crochet and embroidery projects because I like keeping them as a thing just for me but I spent a month making this wheelchair doll and I'm so proud of it. It is all crochet, including the wheelchair and all of its parts.

This is massive news! I'm so proud of @_hannahrowan for being open to the holy spirit and pursuing her vocation to Christian life in all its fullness. @newportcath are lucky to have such a gifted, generous, and brave woman joining their team ❤️

My phone widget recommendations for ADHD brains 🧵
1. Phone notes — Make a new note titled "brain dump" and set up a widget showing the note's contents. I have one on my homescreen and put newer notes at the top so they're always visible.
2. Spotify — Easier access to controls

He was a doctor.
New to the UK from Nigeria.
A short clinical attachment then onto the rota.
People started talking.
Judging.
One day, I asked if he was OK.
He began to cry.
Because here's the thing...
There are no US courtrooms where women aren't allowed to argue cases because of our gender, no hospitals forbidding women to practice medicine.But there are churches everywhere from whose pulpits women are not permitted to preach. https://t.co/OJ4LgD52FH
