Sixteen years ago at a music festival in Washington, one guy stood up and started dancing all alone. The crowd laughed and mocked him.

Then a stranger joined him.
Then another.

In minutes, hundreds came running from every direction to join the party!

One man’s courage turned into something huge — all because of the very first person brave enough to follow.

As Derek Sivers says in his famous TED Talk:
Movements don’t start with the leader… they start with the first fearless follower.

A Heidelberg University study restricted phone use for just 72 hours.

Brain scans before. Brain scans after.

The researchers were stunned by what they found.

Here's what 3 days without your phone actually does to your brain:

@AustraliaAwards Great initiative but hope funds are from a mainstream budget and not hard won specific funds for women. I recall your media message that the dedicated part of this program for women is on hold this year. Not taking $ from women’s activities is a basic principle for male allies

RFK Jr seriously needs to keep his mouth shut. You don’t get to tell women to “just breastfeed” in a country with no national paid leave, no guaranteed paid pumping breaks at work, no affordable childcare, and workplaces that barely accommodate lactating parents. Breastfeeding isn’t just a choice, it’s a system dependent behavior. If you want to promote it, you’d better start with the systems that make it possible.

We strongly suggest you watch the important and excellently presented evidence Ruth Breslin gave in support of Ash Regan's #Unbuyable bill.

Her explanation of the reality of the sex trade and the profiles of the women and men that were researched in Ireland make it clear as day that prostitution = men sexually exploiting vulnerable women.
