This is making the rounds on Facebook. Normalising eating seasonally and locally would go leaps and bounds to lowering our carbon footprints, and reconnecting with nature.
Discovering your talent had such an impact on my life. Thank you for the films, the shows, the music, the blogs, the books, your very presence on this Earth has been a privilege for us all. RIP.
Like we needed more bad news. Benjamin Zephaniah has passed away. Thank you for everything, thank you for your heart, for your kindness, for your solidarity, for showing us the way and teaching us to Never be neutral in the face of injustice and whitewash no MBE/OBE. I’m in shock
Today is #InternationalDayofPersonsWithDisability and it almost feels trite or dismissive to even acknowledge given the globe’s complicity in the Palestinian genocide—both in leaving disabled people in Gaza to die while the west’s violence by proxy disables thousands more.
HAMAS ARE NOT IN THE FUCKING WEST BANK YET ISRAEL HAVE MURDERED 230 PALESTINIANS IN THE WEST BANK SINCE LAST MONTH.
How much more evidence do the genocide-apologists need before they realise ***THIS IS WHO ISRAEL ARE*** and ***THIS IS WHY HAMAS EXISTS***
I will never ever forget you. I will never forgive your killers. And I will keep your memory alive.
