Inside occupied Ukraine’s most effective resistance movements¹

Even small acts of resistance matter.

For Ivan, co-founder and coordinator of the Yellow Ribbon civil resistance movement, this was already clear in the very first weeks of the full-scale invasion, when he and his colleagues were caught in Russian-occupied Kherson.

Doctors denied that my crohns disease was real for 9 months and nearly killed me. They said the pints of blood I was losing were psychological and that I was 'stressed'.

Today a doctor refused to refer me to a neurologist after 3.5 years of a new post covid auto immune disease and said it's 'stress' based.

Denying it was post covid essentially.

The UK is diagnosing 50% of the post covid auto immune disease that the US and Germany are.

Absolute fucking morons.

Interesting interaction the other day.

A Facebook acquaintance asked me where I was posting these days and I told them Fediverse/Mastodon and gave them my profile URL.

Never heard from them again.

LOL

Daniel Herriges at #StrongTowns:

"[T]he problem is too frighteningly big, too glaring to stare directly at it. As the engineer responsible for a city’s streets, if you admit in any case that there is a moral and ethical imperative to fix a deadly street before it claims another life, then surely you have to admit it in every case. But as soon as you do, the problem reaches staggering proportions."
