It's not just our memories Boris Johnson wants us to disbelieve, but our eyes and ears too.
How Boris Johnson's shameful rewriting of history at the Privileges Committee only adds insult to injury for all those who suffered during the pandemic.

The greatest story about social media. I don't think it gets better.
In November 2022, @texasobserver@texaxobserver.social became one of the first newspapers to start their own Mastodon server.
Unlike most newspapers, @texasobserver operates as a non-profit.
This week, the non-profit’s board of directors voted to disband @TexasObserver.
But within 48 hours, people have given $250,000 so it can continue to exist.

Florida elementary school temporarily bars ‘Ruby Bridges’ film
The parents of 2 students declined to allow their children to watch the film, and one of those parents filed a complaint on March 6, after watching the first 50 minutes of the film. The parent alleged that the film teaches students about racial slurs and how “white people hate black people.”

DeSantis gunning for his own armed militia with police powers.
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
