inspired from the radio last week, I'm having a slow morning before PhDing with this beautiful memoir from octavia bright - heartfelt and honest, and written in a way that leaves me enamoured with the words.

this is obviously unhinged, but it's magnified when we know how much the Tories claim back on absolute nonsense when they're already loaded. clamp down on that before you come after vulnerable people! what an awful, awful man. we cannot get these pricks out fast enough.

How do we live with the knowledge that there are so many people who are willing to accept the mass murder of other human beings because of lies they’ve been told? Knowledge can feel like the heaviest weight. We need to be weighed down. Fight with every breath. #FreePalestine
