@Kitty_B_Good @MichaelRosenYes Rakusen's release a different coloured box of matza that is kosher for Passover (KFP) closer to the holiday, the non-KFP boxes are usually blue and the KFP ones are red, you've just reminded me I have some in the cupboard still!

I was embarrassingly late to the realisation that upper class and upper middle class self-assurance relies on an enormous effort of restraint from rest of the population, most of whom are a hair's breadth away from telling them all to sit down and shut the fuck up.

Recently I have been travelling through northern Kurdistan, and have met with Kurdish people from all different kinds of backgrounds. They told countless stories of the current systematic oppression and repression they face – especially from the Turkish state –, as well as a history full of massacres.

Destruction and exploitation of the nature – such as unlawful forest cutdowns, sacrificing zones for mining companies and fires – is one of the many tools used as part of the continuous attacks against the Kurds. This often leads to devastation of local communities and biodiversity as well as forced displacement. Erasure of culture and identity, state violence, political prisoners, forced displacement, ecocides and disappearances are just some examples of the discrimination people face on an everyday basis, as well as being denied the right to self determination and freedom.

To build genuine bridges of solidarity in Turkey, autonomy and self-governance for Kurdish regions are essential. The Kurdish people deserve the right to shape their own lives, culture, and communities.

Turkey must clarify its stance on the Kurds and other minority groups by enshrining their rights in the constitution. The government continues to use “terrorism” as a pretext to silence its political opponents. Tens of thousands of politically active individuals remain imprisoned without fair trials. International organizations such as the ECHR, UN, and Amnesty have condemned this and call for their release.

For a sustainable peace and a just future, the Kurds’ right to freedom and autonomy must be respected and the violent attacks against Kurdistan must end.

No one is free until everyone is free. Bijî Kurdistan!

So embarrassing in an antique shop when I tried to buy a vase and it turned out to be the negative space between the faces of two other customers

my 5 month old was wailing yesterday because she was sleepy so i told her "your problem is you haven’t experienced any hardship, so to you mild discomfort is trauma" she stopped crying, looked at me & said "life is hardship, yet i cling to it, it is the only thing that is real"

On Valentines Day food delivery couriers will be striking with the intention of causing major disruption on the busiest night of the year. @Deliveroo & others are terrified after the success of round one. Deliveroo prefer to gaslight & divide rather than engage with workers 🧵
