Is there an app out there where pubs across uk receive a 'feel safe and comfortable' rating from LGBTQ+ folx and PoC? Cause it's a constant struggle when moving and holidaying and trying to catch a vibe?

My 42yr old twin brother died in ITU of COVID-19 last week. He died exactly 4 weeks after testing positive. He was the fittest, healthiest person I know. He was climbing Welsh mountains & wild camping 4 weeks before his death.

[Vagina Museum @vagina_museum]

We’d prefer not to air our linens in public (unless we’re showing you how vaginal acidity is normal). But we need to say something, and we need to ask your help. The pandemic has been rough for the entire museum sector. Now the Vagina Museum is at risk of becoming homeless.

THREAD: I’m a wheelchair user, and I can’t travel by train on Sundays (it seems).

Context: I’m trying to get to London from a small oxfordshire station. I’ve booked assistance using @PassAssistance, but it is ‘unconfirmed’.

I’ve arrived at the station, and there are no staff…

I received 76+ rejection letters for my debut novel, SUGAR before she finally found a home.
21 years laters...she's still in print.
The moral of this story: NEVER GIVE UP...

[Phoebe Morgan @Phoebe_A_Morgan]

If you’re high risk and shielding, you’re not “cowering” - you’re resilient. If you’re in ICU on a ventilator, you’re not “cowering” - you’re brave. If your loved one lost their life to covid, they didn’t “cower” - they fought hard for you, amidst a government who didn’t.

I have been thrown out of Parliament for saying what we all know:

Boris Johnson has lied to the House of Commons and the country over and over again.

But I’ve got news for the Tories, I will never stop speaking truth to power!

[A C Grayling #FBPE #Reform #Rejoin #FBPR @acgrayling]

Dawn Butler has been banned from the HoC for a day for correctly saying that Johnson is a serial liar.
This is the same punishment given to 5 Tory MPs found in breach of code for attempting to subvert the course of justice in a sexual offence case relating to another Tory MP.

[Dawn Butler ✊🏾💙 @DawnButlerBrent]

The Prime Minister has lied to the house and the country.

[Hend Amry @LibyaLiberty]

These are related.

[💙Rachael Maskell MP @RachaelMaskell]

This is serious. Death rates are going up, infection rates are sky high & people are very poorly. Please do everything you can to keep masks on & keep your distance. We must keep each other safe. The PM is trying to lure people into a false sense of security - don't believe him.

@KeziaBienek I love it!!
