Trying to organise a vigil for #BriannaGhey in the Weymouth/Bournemouth area, but not getting interest from local LGBT groups yet. If all else fails I'll be sitting out with a candle by myself. If you're part of a group here and want to co-organise, @ or DM me.

Content warnings aren't there for 'delicate snowflakes' to be 'protected from acknowledging the realities of anything they don't like'.

They are there to protect and prepare people who have all too real experience or relation to these topics. 2/

Let me be as direct about this as I can.

Content notes/warnings allow students to be prepared for the texts they read.

This isn't a case of protecting 'lil baby students from bad words'. It's a case, for example, of preparing a rape victim for graphic depictions of rape. 1/

Good writing habit: use active voice. If the words sense any weakness at all, they’ll rise up and seize control of the page, sowing chaos and death. Beware the words…

Just received this wonderful poem in my inbox from fourteenpoems. Always love reading work that makes me stop for a moment and feel something.

Given the current conversations in the UK surrounding trans rights, we are really pleased to see such a mainstream law firm publishing guidelines on what your rights are in the workplace.

It's very informative reading, written in an empathetic manner.

I'll say it again. #Equity is not just the presence of Black and Brown faces. It is their full inclusion in all levels of the organizational structure, decision-making, and leadership. #Representation isn't #equity .

fun fact: the term was so suddenly implanted you can spot the specific day, states, and news sources who coordinated for this word to come out

FIXED IT!

Pensioner gets a tarot reading and adopts a child in the middle of a desert.

those who simply sew this as a misunderstanding I can assure you as a wheelchair user my inability to access buildings / public services / transport is a daily occurrence. The equality act reasonable adjustments is NOT fit for purpose. bbc.co.uk/news/world-591…

Feeling intensely queer this evening with just how much I NEED Giovanni's blue velvet 'leather' jacket.

I was so excited when I heard Phoebe Waller-Bridge was writing this Bond film, but it just looks like the same tired fearmongering of disabled people and xenophobia.

hhhhhh please
