I think this is important

Text reads, 'PSA to trans allies: Always write it as "trans women" and not "transwomen". TERFs try to smash the two into a single word so they don't have to acknowledge that trans is an adjective for (and thus a type of) women. I know that sounds pedantic, but it's really important.'

What people think it would be like if they were a teacher vs what it’s like to be a teacher

Happy teacher surrounded by happy students who love and appreciate her.

Teacher stood at the front of her class while students generally riot, destroy everything which is not screwed down and, worst of all, chew gum. She’s thinking, ‘I can’t believe I got an advanced degree for this!’

Oh my god! Shes here! And I love her! She's on the wall observing everything which happens! And also her close up! @canarylittle.bsky.social

A small textile doll hanging on the wall under two contemporary pieces of art and above a slice of fossilised ammonite in rock & and a colourful blanket.

Close up of a small textile doll with a pink furry hat (or is it her head which is pink and furry?). Her pretty face has a slightly startled expression . She wears a spotty frock edged in lace with a furry collar. Her little arms and legs dangle from the correct areas of her body. I love her and so should you

Brilliant! I was hoping for 'cosy', 'coddled' or even 'spoilt'. But, no!

My 2026 word, via Mirriam Webster, is 'intrepid'.

Terrible shame.

If every American did 3 of these 5 things ICE would be stopped in its tracks. Call law-makers, Boycott supporting companies, Prepare your community to protect each other, Make recurring donations to community support initiatives, share this image. Pick 3 or 4 and do them this week.

Black and white picture of Zelensky holding a microphone, appealing to the audience. Text reads, 'Here's a Peace Plan... Get the fuck out of our country.'

Not verbatim.

If you're unemployed it's not because there isn't any work.
Just look around: a housing shortage, crime, pollution: we need better schools and parks. Whatever our needs, they all require work. And as long as we have unsatisfied needs, there is work to be done.
So ask yourself, what kind of world has work but no jobs? It's a world where work is not related to satisfying our needs. A world where work is only related to satisfying the profit needs of business.

Image of several people with Trans Pride flags. Text reads, 'Repost this if Trans people are welcome and safe with you.' Save this image and use it to make your own post. What possible reason would you have not to?

Pride flag. Text reads, ‘Repost if anyone LGBTQ is welcome on your account’. Why wouldn’t they be? Copy and repost, please.

Repost with a picture of what brings you joy. Don't forget the AltText.

A little boy in a woolly hat and superhero cape over his clothes standing right up against the back door, waiting to go outside to play with mud. Or sand. Or water. Something messy, anyway!

If you see this, I IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you're using without explanation.

Two people obviously posing as though running up stairs. The risers of the concrete stairs are tiled in a geometric style.

The saddest owl in the world!

I never knew grass snakes were so little!

An inquisitive grass snake stretched up in the grass. He's having a good look at the nosy humans who woke him up!

Oh! I did get 'otter napping', though!

So the otters were not interested in showing off for fish. But I have a snap of the Scottish Wild Cat
