The responses from men to this woman really highlight the state of men. Just undone over a man they don't know being lightly ridiculed for lecturing her on something she's clearly familiar with. And if they'll become this aggressive online, imagine how they treat women offline.

Black Women photographed by Annie Leibovitz vs various Black photographers🧵

1) Ashley James did an absolutely beautiful job of putting this to bed and she deserves props

2) Black and Brown people have been saying this forever and it speaks *volumes* that a powerful white woman saying it gets their respect and this level of response online

ALLY-SHIP IN ACTION.

Just reading about Tesco’s profits for the year to Feb: 2.3bn. Up 883 million. You know when you look at your trolley and think how?? HOW is this a hundred quid?? This is how.

Trans children will be forced to go through excruciating puberties that will change their bodies forever into shapes they find horrifying and incompatible. All to appease a bunch of silver-haired one-foot-in-the-grave shits who have no real problems, and so have to invent one.

Within 1 plenary, frustration that publishers won’t commit to a business model by a certain date while acknowledging that between UKRI and Plan S, there has been significant flip flopping on preferred model. THIS IS CONNECTED. #UKSG2024

you simply cannot decide that for one minority, adulthood begins at a different age to everyone else. we already did this with age of consent for gay men, and people fought back and won

It seems the room may be realizing that UK based TAs are NOT enough to flip journals to OA in a GLOBAL research enterprise. #UKSG2024

Feel like I’m going mad but isn’t the reason we’re upset with TAs and the 70 years to flip, is because they were sold to us as a short term transitional method to flip journals?? (By the people asking us..)

Has my brain turned to mush..? Is a ‘hybrid article’ a gold OA article published in a hybrid journal? I’m now doubting myself 🤦🏽‍♀️

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe Michael Clarke Flipping journals was 100% one of the goals for jisc and their TAs.

Jisc TA review: green plummets. Closed content of publishers in TAs at 61%. Open sits at 33%. Journals flipping is really low. Karger flipped 15% and Wiley 7%. #UKSG2024

UK hybrid article% double the global figure

Hybrid is better at eating Green than increasing Open

Is there a clearer indictment of TA effectiveness?

Interesting from Caren Milloy & Chris Banks (she/her)

White men told us they travelled the world and ‘discovered’ places which were already inhabited, they killed the indigenous people, stole the wealth, renamed the islands, and called their actions ‘brave’.
It is actual INSANITY that they still teach this nonsense in schools.
