Liberal, tolerant, late-diagnosed ADHD bibliophile. Master practitioner of the noble art of tsundoku. SCAD survivor. Proud drag-queen mum and 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ ally. The older I get, the lefter I lean... No unsolicited DMs, please.

Later today I'll find out if my Mum has dementia. We lost my Dad to it 2 years ago (physically, at least). The idea of having to see another person I love go through this terrible disease is haunting me. And I'm just not ready to be without my Mum.

Donald Trump is a vainglorious, narcissistic, evil man. If he's given half an inch by the courts in his childish tantrum over The Kennedy Centre, he'll be issuing ultimatums to the whole world before we know it. Every time he tests the limits and gets away with it, he does something worse!

Do these eejits doing Trump's bidding honestly not know what a dictator does to minions who outlive their usefulness? And does Bovino expect anyone to actually care about what happens to his nasty, amoral ass? His soul's been bought and paid for. If he sold it cheap, that's his own problem!

Former Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino says the Trump Admin pulled his security detail because they want him to be killed.

Funny how ever-so-patriotic Reform UK Ltd is completely reliant on foreign based millionaires for funding ... "The Murky Reform donors all expecting favours for their back-handers. All of them not even from the UK" via Kat Penn

Reform is not a political party, it's a limited company, funded by dubious entities who want to profit from the privatisation of the entire UK. Our NHS will be the first casualty. With Russian backing, they will destroy our human rights, our employment rights & women's rights... just for starters.

A not so gentle reminder - a vote for Reform is a vote for: ❎ Failed Tories ❎ Vested interests ❎ Privatisation of the NHS Vote Green on 18th June - for people and planet 💚

This is obscene profiteering. Unfortunately, as long as Big Pharma is the only source of virtually unlimited funding for cancer research, nothing will change. We need global funds and multinational scientific talent working for us, not them, or only the wealthy benefit.

Cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of over $100 billion. It’s also extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each pill, even though that pill costs just 25 cents to make. (Published May 2025)
