I was proud to showcase my heritage last night at @mcrartgallery during an event that focused on #Queer #Brown #Couture. I wore a kurta from #Bangladesh and a cape I sewed myself using lungi fabrics as a reference to my love of #Superhero #Costume.

To my fellow PoC, please stay safe. To any white Brit with a conscience, do something.

We need to stop talking about the slow creep to fascism in the #UK and understand that fascism is here. When 100,000+ white extremists marching in London is normalised, it's beyond time to take action.

HADES II v1.0 is coming September 25!🌒 Battle beyond the Underworld in our launch trailer.🏔️ Play in blazing-fast 120fps in TV Mode on Nintendo Switch 2, or 60fps on Nintendo Switch (w/ free upgrade to Switch 2). Transfer PC progress from Steam or Epic with Cross Saves.

I mean, heroes like Spidey are meant to be for the grassroots and the underdog and the oppressed, so it's extra nice to see an film update account take this very humane stance.

No one deserves to be shot brutally in public, sliced open by the bullet of a cowardly sniper. Hence, I condemn in the strongest terms the targeted assassination of at least 1500 Palestinians by snipers - many of whom were women and children collecting food - by the IDF cowards in Gaza. And I condemn in the strongest terms the shooting of over 1000 Palestinians living in the West Bank in 'clashes' instigated by Isareli forces. And I also condemn in the strongest terms the bombing and intentional killing of over 70,000 civilians in Gaza by the genocidal regime of Netanyahu. Anyone who justified or mocked those deaths deserves no sympathy and is no hero - even as the same verdict above holds true for them as well. Dying by violence does not cleanse a legacy of justifying violence.

a video of a white right wing talking head getting popped in the neck traumatised you but seeing videos of palestinian children being blown up daily doesn’t even phase you says a lot

Charlie Kirk isn’t a martyr. He’s a casualty of the violence he incited.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

Please remember that he was actively dehumanising trans people and spreading misinformation at the time he was shot as well.

Sorry, but if someone's fascist positions include saying gun deaths are an acceptable part of life, I don't really care about his wellbeing.

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS??

Gorgeous art from @nthomasartist! Billy looks like he's going to the Met Gala!

Power to the people of #Nepal and especially to the youth spearheading the #NepalGenZProtest against tyranny and corruption. May the PM's resignation signal a systemic change.

A sombre reminder from @NetraNews that the #Rohingya refugees in #Bangladesh continue to be used as political pawns without any real move towards even basic rights. netra.news/2025/rohingya-…

@owenlikescomics Really sorry to be missing it! Fell ill and couldn't attend; wish I had a chance to deliver my paper.

A lot of great papers and presentations so far! I'll be delivering my talk tomorrow 👀

Note to British politicians. THIS. ALL OF THIS. #FarageDestroyed

A detailed report on the ongoing oppression of the #Bawm community in #Bangladesh by @NetraNews. A sad indictment of how the state continues to abuse and exploit its #Adibashi #Indigenous citizens.

“The killing of a 13-year-old boy has become a flashpoint in a little-known conflict that, a Netra News investigation finds, has claimed the lives of at least 19 Bawm civilians and shaken an indigenous Christian community of a little over 13,000 people.” netra.news/2025/banglades…

Fantastic piece on the dangers of tokenistic #Adibashi #Indigenous representation that does nothing to challenge actual colonial violence, by Myat Moe Khaing. thedailystar.net/opinion/views/…

people are about to get really weird and annoying so let’s just clarify that 1) all mass shootings are reprehensible and the result of poor gun control 2) 98% of mass shooters are cis men 3) only caring about child murder when the murderer is (allegedly?) trans is vile
