A hedgehog came & self-annointed himself with @mister_goldfish's hair cuttings. This is when a hedgehog finds a smell he likes, licks the smelly thing then licks himself all over to make himself smell of it (in this case, it's probably @TheBodyShopUK Ginger Shampoo).

Wife has been at MCM Comic Con for the last three days. Her final day of cosplay was as Guillermo from What We Do In The Shadows. She came down to breakfast at the hotel and there were Harvey Guillén and Kayvan Novak - Guillermo and Nandor - having theirs. [1/2]

UN assessment of trans rights in the UK is 'much needed common sense' ‘We are witnessing the UK backsliding on LGBTI rights, where we used to be proud in our world leadership’ – Sacha Deshmukh #transrightsarehumanrights #LGBTIrightsarehumanrights amn.st/6015OdAHS

35 years ago at the height of the AIDS crisis, 35 policemen raided The RVT wearing rubber gloves. Lily Savage was on stage at the time, and she said: ‘Well well, it looks like we’ve got help with the washing up.’

The refugee charity @safepassageuk have a handy template if you aren't sure how to email your MP about the #IllegalMigrationBill safepassage.org.uk/email-you…

1. Write to your MP. If they’re a Tory, tell them that you want them to throw this Bill out & focus on fixing the NHS & getting sewage out the rivers instead of wasting our money defending its illegal cruelty to refugees in court. If not, say you expect them to fight it 💪💪

I’ve just had of those train journeys you’re never going to forget The guy next to us starts talking. He says he wants to say something - and that we are free to ignore him after he finishes. Naturally people sitting around stare awkwardly at the floor, pretending not to hear

If media work experience isn’t normally accessible to you because of disability or illness, I’m so happy to say @guardian will be including a remote placement as part of this year’s positive action scheme. Same opportunity. From your sofa. Apply here: workforus.theguardian.com/in…

🧵 Today we publish a report showing that the majority of those men, women and children who cross the Channel on small boats would be granted asylum in the UK because they are fleeing war and persecution. Here’s how the Home Office tried to rubbish our report last night….

#VoterID is a HUGE issue for a country that has never required photo ID for voting. And here's the thing: it's not just people who are marginalised or on v. low incomes who might not have photo ID; it's also a lot of older people who no longer drive, travel or use oyster cards..

What’s the best/most affirming thing a medical professional has said to you? ⬇️ There are so many horror stories out there that I thought a positive thread might give everyone some validation. I’ll start: “It’s ok to recognise that you deserved more and that others failed you”.

This Tory voter ID plan is completely unworkable, unnecessary, and set to lock millions out of voting. It’s an outrage they're spending yet more public money promoting disgraceful efforts to disenfranchise voters. independent.co.uk/news/uk/an…

If the PM was serious about ending dangerous journeys he would open safe routes for refugees Instead we're seeing more of the same cruel approach that has led to a record number of channel deaths in the past 2 years Sunak's pledge won't stop the boats. It won't stop the deaths.

An incredibly positive and heart warming story about how a community in North Somerset rallied round to help asylum seekers who are staying in two local hotels. The very antithesis of Faragism. bristolpost.co.uk/news/brist…
