Snowden Flood

I’m in tears at this. A Holocaust survivor, the daughter of a holocaust survivor, the granddaughter of a holocaust survivor stand together against the genocide in Gaza. Let love not hate dominate. #CeasefireNow

Hang a banner from a motorway gantry and you are going to jail. Dump billions of litres of sewage into the environment for millions of hours and nothing. And no matter what anybody says that is not going to change. Justice? 👇

@Jacob_Rees_Mogg Let's rewrite this headline “Wokery can damage my wealth” writes Jacob Rees Mogg Sounds good to me 👍🏼 What tax has Somerset Capital paid over the years and was it based offshore? If so, what would it have paid in tax if it was registered for tax solely in the UK?

@JaneyGodley I loved and still love this so much 🔥🔥🔥

Some of my best work - I still love this - June 2016

The people who adore JK Rowling Katie Hopkins Tommy Robinson Nigel Farage Scottish Tories Glinner Scottish family party Anti abortion groups absolutely HATE me. ..and that’s exactly the position I want in life. . I don’t want to be liked by them Imagine the shame

@stormrobinson Well, I called your misogyny out. As the point of your story seemed to be to illustrate your own grandiosity, then yes, I imagine you don’t find me cool, that’s neither here nor there to me. The fact remains that chick is infantilising terminology.

@SnowdenFlood Chick is a cool woman. If it’s any consolation, I would not call you a chick.

There was a car with a flat tire at the trailhead today. “That sucks” I thought and started on my run. Passed two Gen-Z chicks coming down the canyon about two miles in. The car with the flat was the only other car at the trailhead so it must be theirs. “That sucks” I thought and kept on about my run. I got back about an hour later and the two chicks are sitting in their car, doors open, all distraught. “Are you alright?” I asked. “Yeah… we’re fine… we’re just… it’s fine” the girl in the driver’s seat replies with wide eyes like I’m definitely a serial killer. It was clearly not fine. “You have a plan to get down?” “Yeah, we’ll call someone.” There’s no cell service for 10 miles in any direction. “Do you have a spare?” I asked. “Uhm, I’m not sure. It’s fine” she replies. It’s a 2016/17-ish Honda HR-V. The spare tire is under the cargo floor. “You do. I can put it on for you if you want.” The two chicks stare at each other. “Uhm… no, that’s ok” the driver says to the passenger in the tone of a question. “You sure? It will take me ten minutes” I said insistently but trying not be a creep. The two chicks stare at each other some more. (They clearly would have chosen the bear.) “Or I can call the ranger when I get down to Pasadena.” The two chicks stare at each other some more. They whisper in girl code. They look me up and down. They stare back at each other. The passenger finally speaks: “uhm, so… would you mind helping us change the tire?” “Yeah, it’s no problem.” I have them open the cargo. They dug out enough hiking supplies to hike the PCT. “You have enough gear to survive out here for a week” I joked. The two chicks stared at each other. They looked at me. They looked back at each other. In girl code they agreed it’s safe to chuckle. “Hehe, yeah” one of them says. By the time I got the car lifted, they had let their guard down a little and thanked me “seriously so so so so much.” They told me they had no idea how to change a tire. They’ve never had to change a tire before but one of them did have a dead battery once in college and had to have her dad drive over an hour to come give her a jump. Ten minutes later, the tire was changed and they seemed genuinely surprised I didn’t kill them. They thanked me again “seriously so so so so much” and assured me that I “have no idea, omg” and then they were on their way. It made realize how much it sucks to be a woman where every man is a threat until proven otherwise. I don’t blame them for being cautious, but I do blame them for venturing into the mountains with $1000 worth of REI products, but no clue how to change a tire. Teach your daughters how to change a tire ffs!

@stormrobinson Bloke is a man - therefore not infantilising which is my point. Perhaps you’ll answer my question now

@SnowdenFlood Why are the men you’re mentioning blokes?

@alex_rhind @anthonyshock There’s some great Lebanese restaurants in London!

@anthonyshock I'm not jealous... omg... I'm not - I'm really not. Seriously, I have never worked out why Lebanese cuisine hasn't really reached the UK. It's fantastic and incredibly healthy. Envy you this and love love love it all.

Getting things for lunch. Let me show you around my Arabic supermarket. This is my favourite cuisine in the world, so I have tonnes to recommend for you! Let’s go!

In January 2011, just 17 people waiting longer than 12 hours on a trolley for an emergency hospital bed. In January 2024, more than 50,000 people did. Please RT so everyone can be aware of the damage the Conservatives have done to our NHS.

I've just responded to the public consultation on the government's guidance for schools, to show my support for trans youth. Join me in taking action! This guide will help you understand the questions: stonewall.org.uk/our-work/campa…

Deeply moved to tears that my home train station (Clapham Junction) is part of the new train line rebrand and will be named WINDRUSH LINE - a wonderful homage to my grandparents generation who are victims of the hostile environment and pioneers of rebuilding postwar Britain.

Just this. Please retweet.

The reality behind this is horrible

@andrewdunning @uclh Happy birthday Andrew! But I’m so sorry to hear the awful news. Xx

tomorrow we celebrate my husband turning 6️⃣0️⃣ 3 months after he was diagnosed with terminal leukaemia in October. Although we are both devastated we are determined to enjoy the time we have left. Andrew is receiving amazing care and treatment from the @UCLH Haematology team 🙏🏻
