Not going to lie. Things are WAY worse in 2022 than I expected they would be. It doesn't mean all is lost, far from, but it should cause a big old rethink among all who care. Because the fault is not in our stars, or in ourselves, but in our comprehension. A Sunday morning 🧵.

2020 is almost over and I feel I have something to get off my chest: I didn't get better. I didn't get healthier in mind or body. I didn't create, I didn't grow, and I didn't accomplish. It's fair to say I'm less together than I was this time last year by almost every metric.

TW: mentions of disordered eating, general diet culture nonsense - that’s right folks, fatphobic bs AND an advert from the 1950s, both at the very same time!!! groundbreaking stuff
also i have not Done A Tweet in a very long time which made me very anxious about barging my way into people’s timelines unannounced (sorry to the people i have just followed back after months/years 😬), i just felt very strongly about sofie hagen being great
UK/British people, you are not allowed to be outraged at the Alabama abortion law until/unless you have expressed the same outrage to your MP about abortion in Northern Ireland.
