Sometimes I get these moments where I just want to cry. Most people are oblivious to what is happening. It’s a threat to their lives and mine. My safety too. Its personal as much as anything else. It’s like being a passenger in a car driven by a drunk driver - and no one cares.

1/ Everyone should read @DrGrounds submission to the Scottish long Covid enquiry. She has nailed it. yourviews.parliament.scot/covid19/long-c…

Here are the big takeaways from the IPCC Synthesis Report released today. First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.

So given this dire news, surely we are well on our way to cutting our carbon emissions, no? No. The synthesis report is crystal clear: we are not doing nearly enough to avoid dangerous impacts, let alone achieve the targets of the Paris Agreement.

The bottom panel is my parents, the middle one is me, the top one is my children. If we act now, our children will still have a liveable future. Why is #IPCC not trending?

It's quite something that the world's top scientists put out a synthesis report that essentially says civilization as we know it will end unless the world comes together to stop rapidly expanding the fossil fuel industry but to instead rapidly end it, and almost no one cares

Komin með covid aftur mánuði eftir fyrsta smit 🥰. Glöð að sjá hvað fyrra smit ver vel. Ég 💜 hjarðónæmi.

Every single study, from every single field, from immunology, to cardiology, to pulmonology is showing risk of vascular damage, risk of cardiac, brain and other organ damage, and risks we don’t fully understand yet. Zero studies are like “actually it’s a cold”

Over 1/3 of all food produced is wasted, yet almost a billion people are hungry. Food production is lousy under capitalism because feeding people isn’t the primary objective.

Ég forðast það að skilgreina kynhneigðina mína opinberlega af því að tvíkynhneigð hjá konum er svo ógeðslega sexualized hjá körlum og aðrar konur hafa fordóma því þær halda að tvíkynhneigðar konur séu að spila með í því leikriti - ég vil bara elska fólk og vera í friði #afsakið

Why is individual action* on climate change and the destruction of nature so powerful and important? Well, imagine yourself at a concert or party where you've had a couple of drinks, the music's getting good... but nobody's dancing 🧵 1/

Einu sinni las ég yfir starfsumsókn fyrir karlmann og sá að hann skáldaði umtalsvert inn í ferilsskrána sína. Það var ekki mitt að fetta fingur út í þann listræna gjörning og hann er embættismaður núna. Skömmu síðar skrifaði ég þessa örsögu.

Today is Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day, and I truly hate awareness days. But here are four things I’ve learned as an adult with CP that I’d like for people, particularly parents of kids with CP, to know:

While listening to council meetings in Montreal, local mayor Sue Montgomery decided to knit in red when men spoke and in green for women. Same number of men and women attended. Day 1 results showed a big disparity.... #WomensArt

If you do one thing today, listen to cardiologist Dr Rae Duncan on #COVID19 #LongCovid &what Covid could be doing to our children. It is heartfelt and genuine from someone who has seen the devastating effects of long Covid. Excerpts below. youtu.be/K_d9MvVNdyA via YouTube

Climate action isn't about "saving the planet"; Earth will endure. It's about saving US, us humans and the myriad of species we share this world with. We're not fighting for a planet; we're fighting for a safe and sustainable home for us all. youtube.com/watch?v=HZJ45T…
